What's next immediately (Upcoming week or 2):
Monitoring and fixing any issues
Better storage for dronehubs, some people reported an error that not all slots are used, this was intentional as it's each slot per different item type, so next is to improve that
More teleports, now with the lava area added, it can be annoying to walk that far every single time so sub area teleports will be needed
More polish and content in the added areas, the basics are set up but there is room for a lot more
Updating tutorials
What's next for the Early Access plan (Long-term):
Underwater area (With new resources, etc)
Controller support!
Updating missions
More upgrades
And more!
Please report any errors or issues, any ideas are also welcome.
Thank you for the continued support and enjoy!
See you soon!
