Hello Space Mechanics!
This is a major update that unlocks the potential of this game, bringing more depth to gameplay.
When given a mission, you will not be pointed directly to damaged parts. Instead, you will be pointed to an antenna, pump or other equipment that fails to perform its function. It will be your job to discover where the actual cause is. In many cases, one symptom can be the result of multiple overlapping malfunctions that all need to be discovered and dealt with.
This is where all the training and tools you bring with you really start to pay off. Get to know the satellites and bases you're working with and understand how one thing affects another. Check if batteries get a proper charge signal and if not, inspect solar panels looking for visual damage. Yes, they're detachable now!
And if you just want to relax, you can change game difficulty at any moment from in game menu - you will still get full guidance at easier levels.
You will also find multiple quality of life improvements, such as new trade slider or wire highlighting on diagrams.
We hope you will have a lot of fun with this update, and rest assured - we're not done yet! Another major update is nearly complete - Moon and Mars surface missions with rover!
