Hi there!

Today, while whacking at a game code I've found a major bug that might have caused jobs to break if a device related to it was being deconstructed -.- My bad, but it should work fine now :)

• Change - Device Out Pipe - randomize item to be outputted
  
• Major bug in import/export trader solved - when a job was removed due to a deconstructed device - it wasn't removed from ResourceTrader so a new job wasn't generated
  
• Bug solved - correctly load unsigned trade
  
• prevent deconstruction of a guest dock with locked trade and last storage device
  
• Added notification when there are a lot of dropped items
  
• prevent shortcut activation if a button is not interactable
  
• update default keymap for 0.1 speed to BackQuote
  
• clean folder before saving (less mess)
  
• requester is built inside (as stated in the build description)
  
• Clearer Pump placement requirements
  

Oh hello there :)

There is this thing about Nominating for Steam Awards... and to be honest, I'm not sure how exactly it works, but I have a plan :D

Looking at the game I've made, and how much of a struggle it causes for new players I thought it would be funny if Space Architect gets nominated in the 'Best Game You Suck At Award' category

So, if you too agree that this game requires some brainpower to understand, and even more to master, please help :D

Thanks,

Hi there!

This time it's a quick patch for the game crashing (0o) during trade, while in a negative balance.
You'll still be able to get into negative balance, but trade won't crash the game, and would behave more predictably so that you could still barter, or get back into positive balance :)

• Prevent trade crashing when in a negative balance
  
• Fixed loading of visitor offers and needs
  
• Fixed loading of signed trades (but only for saves from this version onward)
  
• Few texts fixed
  

* A quick note - This update is undercooked to quickly push out a patch solving the game crashing thing.
There is still a problem loading unsigned trade with visitor offer (it won't crash, but won't work as expected), I need some sleep :D

Another one where some bugs were smashed, but I've also started some work on optimization of the game.
I hope You'll enjoy it :)

• Optimization - task panel updates in batches
  
• First attempt at pipe optimization
  
• Workaround for crew getting stuck outside without space suit
  
• Handle situation where no working airlock is present (but please, build it back 😄 )
  
• Clearer entry in Knowledgebase about pipe disconnection with middle mouse swipe
  
• Handle loading of broken dropped items save
  
• Added information in the main menu about used graphical API
  
• Handle large amount of entries in the power overlay
