Repeated intro

Hello everyone, Here we are, the new update is available on Steam ! Update 1.6 : Expand ! Why "1.6", the last one was 1.4 ? Nothing important, we update the mobile version accordingly with the PC version, from now, they will share the same version number. Why "Expand" ? Because Into the Void is a 4X game : Explore + Expand + Exploit + Exterminate and we needed a little bit more "expand" and "exploit" in the game to be really a XXXX game. To prepare this "Expand" version we needed you can access all the planets in every mission of the game, it wasn't possible with the previous system, they were all seperated. We did this change in the previous update and it occurs many save problems. In this new update we totally reworked the save system to match the changes.
