Patch notes for Build 490: “You must construct additional pylons!”

New pylon maps for real time ground

• Pylons now show the location of space they are in, as well as the state of construction progress across multiple gameplay maps. Get in there and help make space safe for our miners and discover new planets!

Art\\User Interface

• Planets now more visually show how complete they are printed

• Planet missions will now use the new map on the parts of planets that are complete to show that off sooner in the printing process.

• Improved artifractal core table ui

• Fixed cores/sparks filter in inventory

• Fixed settings menu input on first open not showing Q,E or ESC

• Sparks can be converted to other spark types randomly. 5 sparks will roll another spark of the same rarity
