New Tractor Beam Upgrade Research - v0.7.0.25

Now have new research to unlock, the tractor beam upgrade. You can find this under the engineering section of the research window. Once unlocked, you can select a tractor beam and the upgrade menu will now be available. For 20 metal that tractor beam can be upgraded and once complete its range will be extended 30%.

Couple of fixes/improvements as well. Main menu background is now scaled correctly. Wasn't an issue if you had a 16:9 ratio, but a large black area for ultrawide monitors. Miner droids if destroyed had the chance of blocking a mining station if they were unloading, now fixed. Few other little things, in notes below.

Patch notes:-

  • Tractor beam upgrade added to research menu.
  • Tractor beam can now be upgraded if research unlocked (and gets 30% added to range).
  • New tractor beam upgrade job for workers.
  • Droid build time at droid maintenance increased.
  • More text displayed on main menu news panel.
  • Fix: Miner droids destroyed, may lock mining stations if assigned.
  • Fix: Background image of main/pause menu, not scaled correctly (especially wide monitors).
