A significant enhancement in this update is the introduction of 'Sector Structure 0.19'. This new sector structure has been developed for better performance. As part of our commitment to compatibility, we have taken a transitional step to ensure that maps from all previous versions of the game can be opened in the new update.
'Planar Water' is added. Big simplification but also huge optimization and fix.
New blocks: 'HandGenerator Block' and 'KineticHeater Block' is added.
Model improvements: The models for 'Sifter', 'Compact Generator', and 'Induction Furnace' have been updated.



[h2]Improvements[/h2]
A new 'lua lib' has been added for improved scripting.
The 'Jetpack Effect' will now be disabled on low settings to optimize performance.
The 'Item Rack' will now include descriptions for improved usability.

[h2]Bug Fixes[/h2]
The animation for 'Chem Bath' has been fixed.
The issue with 'Titanium Ingot Achievement' has been resolved.
The'Cell Hand Recipe' bug has been fixed.



We have much more updated content and plan to publish it with small parts. New loading menu, block replace, updated models, new tech, modding and more.

We will continue to work on further updates for Evospace and appreciate your ongoing feedback.

[h2]Finite Ore Deposits[/h2]


Ores now are sector based. Available for Drilling Rig ores now is depends on map ores. If you can see Copper Ore on surface then Drilling Rig probably will be able to extracting it here too

Each sector has his values for each ore. While you extracting ores from sector speed will be decreasing
By default each sector has one most common ore with capacity = 1000
When gathered > capacity extracting speed will be slowly decreasing
