[INTERNAL MEMO] Developments in Technologies and Projected Launch Date
Greetings, Platform Managers!
The R ‘n’ D Department continues to be hard at work on the development and research of multiple new technologies and upgrades that seek to streamline your mining operations during your tenure at Drill Core Inc., and we’re pleased to share some of those latest developments with you today.
New Buildings
Multiple new types of buildings are being developed to offer a range of buffers, day- and night-time abilities, and more for all Platform Managers. As with all developmental breakthroughs at Drill Core Inc., these new structures are subject to full confidentiality; there will be 15 new buildings in total, some of which we’ve outlined below for you.
The Time Warper will constantly accelerate one turret of your choosing by a given percentage; multiple of these buildings can be built, each impacting different turrets, but each turret can only be boosted by one Time Warper.
The Nightshifters Post will release a given number of Dwarf Soldiers into the mine each night. Each building of this type operates completely independently.
The G.U.A.R.D. System enables a daytime ability which will launch a drone into the mine to attack enemies; additional buildings of the same type will each launch one additional drone.
Finally, the Reincorporator building will revive a deceased worker if charged, with each building of this type working completely independently - we hope this will lower expedition costs for all Platform Managers!
New Turrets
Of course, with recent research alluding to new aliens appearing across several biomes, the R ‘n’ D Department has also been diligently working on new technologies to enable all Platform Managers to protect Drill Core Inc.’s investments themselves and their workers, amounting to 6 new Turret types for you to utilize during contracts.
These include the Voidwheel Turret, which during an attack generates a laser that rotates 180 degrees around the turret and back, damaging any enemies it touches; the Harpooner Turret, which fires a harpoon to draw the enemy towards the turret, holding them in place whilst the turret’s saws cause damage; and the Thunderstrike Turret, which shoots electricity at a target, stunning them, before jumping to the next enemy.
These new Turrets and Buildings will be unlocked by developing your working relationship with the relevant Oversight Department during your contracts; we’ll be giving more of an overview of these new employees in our full launch post, so we recommend giving your continued attention to all company-wide memos.
Projected Release of New Developments
With the R ‘n’ D Department’s new fully-approved 126 hour work weeks, Drill Core Inc. is pleased to share that these developments are projected to be available to all Platform Managers on 22nd April.
We look forward to seeing how you implement these new features, and wish all employees a prosperous future.

Best regards,
Drill Core Inc. Board of Directors
Update:
The Board of Directors would like to announce that due to unforeseen alien outbreaks impacting some Drill Core Inc. planets, the previously announced update is now coming to Drill Core on 28 April. We apologize for any interruptions to your mining operations, Platform Managers!
