Automation update is in experimental branch

Greetings Scavengers,

[h3]Call for Experimental Branch Testers[/h3]

I'm excited to say the first Major update, Automation and Rig Flight, is now live in the experimental branch. This brings a bunch of new tech, improvements to the automation side of the game and better thrusters and rig refueling mechanics. It's generally the best way to experience the game.

You can join the experimental branch with just 4 clicks from your Steam library. I explain how in the forum here.

If you'd like to see what changes are there, I list experimental updates in Discord in the update channel, to avoid update spam. Join our server here to find out more.

I'm going away for a week now, but I wanted to post this to let you know what is on the horizon, that more updates are coming, and that if you want to help out, joining the experimental branch should help me bring this into the main branch soon.



[h3]Thanks![/h3]
Finally, I just wanted to thank all of you who took the time to leave us a nice review on Steam. I read them all, good and bad, and it really means a lot to us.

Reading nice things keeps us happy and motivated and also, reviews actually make a big difference to how the game, and our micro-studio, does. Nice reviews are a great way of supporting both.

So thanks very much :) And if you enjoy the game, please do consider dropping a Steam review.

See you soon!

Al and Sarah

Edit. Please note, we have just uncovered a potential issue where the orientation of your rig after piloting may correct input output, so if you notice any strange results, keep that in mind in the experimental branch. The stable branch is unaffected.
