I spent the day making some changes to the forum, and you might have to reload your style sheets for the changes to take effect (empty cache/hard reload), but
tomorrow (9/27) work begins on the v0.97.0 patch. I plan on focusing heavily from this thread: (
More offshore buildings! (Need EMERGENCY ATTENTION)), which includes more Water World content and the "emergency!" fix for Water World insectoids, who are currently gimped.
In addition to the above mentioned content, there will be bug fixes and a new feature that allows you to "group" or stack similar rovers together. The stacked rovers will act as one single rover, but will say something like "
Megabot Stacked x50". Stacked bots will be represented by a single bot object in the game, which will greatly improve performance when moving and building. The only downside is that they cannot move separately from each other, but you will be able to un-stack them too as needed.
Anyway, work begins tomorrow, so stay tuned!
