I should note that in the final version the Lander wont actually be able to carry 4 vehicles, that was only there for testing. There will be a dedicated Rover Transport vehicle for that.
The moving lander and the ability to load units into another unit is all being implemented into the engine to facilitate Colony Wars (last few updates I have been adding random Colony Wars related changes under the hood), which is going to have a C&C like mobile construction yard and APC type units for moving troops around. But I figured the features add something to My Colony also.
Can you add a option to disable all sounds except the eruption sound? Without the sound for the eruption there is no way to know there is one. So we need something for that, but without having to enable everything else as well.
Oh my goodness, some really tasty features coming that should really increase the quality of my colony, I can't wait. Lava world looks gorgeous by the way, and I noticed the 500 mil atmosphere you have there at the start, haha, thanks for incorporating that idea into the mix, it was exactly what I was hoping for.
Will lava be a new resource since there would be an abundance of it? Perhaps you can make a geothermal plant that uses lots of lava and a little water to make power, or you could add obsidian resource that's made by combining water and lava(that idea might already be trademarked/copy-righted by minecraft so I would be careful with that one if that's where you are heading with it.) Will the playing style for zolarg lava map be the same for zolarg ice map?
Not that I'm expecting this soon or even at all, but will you implement some sort of sea level measurement that makes the water/lava spread/recede when the sea level goes up and down? It would be fun to make water recede completely at a high atmosphere and then cause lava to spread across the map the more atmosphere the planet gets, or to have the water freeze over at a low atmosphere. what do you think?
