Hey Astro Colonists!
The game just got an update with new
logic improvements,
player death and many fixes.
There are also many new
sounds which should help with in-game immersion.
[h2]PLAYER DEATH + TELEPORT[/h2]
There is the new player death.
In the past, the game could simply end when you die. Right now the system is greatly improved. It respawns the player in the most convenient place (the base station recently visited). It makes more sense in the multiplayer, where we don't want to interrupt the game but simply continue. This also makes player to be more careful of using booster and checking his oxygen meter.
[h2]STABLE CONVEYOR BELT MERGE[/h2]
Many players suggested creating a
merge block, which would help to merge resources on a conveyor belt. Right now all conveyor belts and pipes are intelligent, so they always balance the network taking resources from all possible directions.
As you can see from the screenshot, it also nicely work for pipes.
After merging hydrogen tanks, rods, oxygen tanks, gold plates they will generate perfect interlace ABCD ABCD output each time.
[h2]TIMER PUSHER[/h2]
It's the new logic block which allows to better control flow of conveyor belts and transport pipes.
After specifying time, it pushes resources accordingly. You can decide how often resources are pushed.
This can be a great alternative to splitters!
