[h2]👩🚀 What have the devs been working on this month? 👩🚀[/h2]
"September has been another highly successful month in the development of Mars Horizon 2.
Our payload design module system has been implemented and is in the process of being balanced by our talented design team.
As a player, it is now possible to outfit a rover to be specifically suited to traverse dangerous celestial bodies.
Modules can also be applied to orbital payloads, allowing for increased life span and scan range.
Surface bases have seen their first iteration put into the game which allows for a whole different sphere of expression for players that desire a slower paced game of resource gathering.
Alongside these new features, we have also seen various improvements to our models and textures. Most notably, we are significantly improving the implementation of our fog of ignorance to make it feel more reactive to the players actions."
- Matt Holmes, Producer for Mars Horizon 2: The Search for Life
