addedNew production and inventory systemAdded a lot of new items, new method of construction, new production modules, new system for distribution of resources.Storage containers now may contain more than 1 type of resources.
addedRedesigned and improved tradingAdded many types of space stations. Stations now can be found in different locations in the galaxy. Fixed important bugs and exploits.
fixedMultiplayer!Now everyone should be able to host a server, and the server will be properly visible in the server list! This was unexpected! Earlier only small percentage of users was able to host a server, which was definitely not good, but we thought that in order to solve this problem, we need to rewrite half of the game from scratch, which requires a lot of work, so this task had low priority. But turned out there is a solution which allowed us to quickly solve this technical issue just in a few days! We are super excited with the fact that multiplayer now is really acceptable for entire community! Also, we fixed a lot of bugs related for multiplayer! Trading and missions now should properly work in multiplayer! Also we found out a new way how to synchronize positions of objects between connected users, so now ships movements should be much more smooth and stable! No more "chaotic jumping around" for connected users, especially while you are trying to dock to the space station in orbital mode.
addedMultiplayer!-------------------- Also, in order to not duplicate the same screenshot with the new features, you may check a previous blog posts which was published during development of this update. https://steamcommunity.com/games/CelestialCommand/announcements/detail/1688174556450295457 https://steamcommunity.com/games/CelestialCommand/announcements/detail/1694928687277195414 https://steamcommunity.com/games/CelestialCommand/announcements/detail/3113560763381913137 https://steamcommunity.com/games/CelestialCommand/announcements/detail/1681414719780132338 https://steamcommunity.com/games/CelestialCommand/announcements/detail/1681414719787069167 --------------------- Overall, this is just a quick overview of this update. Please look at the full change log for more information. Also, note that this update is not very polished. It was too long in development, so we decided that we already should release it. Overall everything should work, but may contain some significant bugs and flaws, but we are going to fix all crucial issues ASAP in nearest updates. Information for people who tested a test build of this update: Invite via Steam overlay and Discord rich presence features requires some additional work and not included in this release. Will be added a bit later. Thanks!
