(see previous updates 01, 02, 03, 04, 05, 06)We are ramping up production to finish all 3D art, we hope to do this before the end of the summer, which will give us a few months to test and tweak gameplay.In this update we are highlighting the new Guards, Mine and Nuclear Facility New GuardsThis is the new Planetbase 2 security team, that will handle misbehaving colonists and visitors, ensuring a safe and productive colony environment.They will be able to surveil the base, arrest people and, worst case scenario, use their weapons to neutralize criminals.New MineHere your colonists will be able to mine a variety of different ores, like Iron, Silicates, Aluminum, Uranium, Thorium and more.This time around you will be able to transport ores from the mine using vehicles.Nuclear FacilityThis is a new interior structure that has components that are used to produce Nuclear Fuel and Nuclear Reactors in order to power the colony. This avoids having to import critical components and makes the colony more self-sufficient.CentrifugeThis is a component that creates Nuclear Fuel from Uranium.Thorium ProcessorOnce you have the required techs, you will be able make Nuclear Fuel from Thorium instead, which is more abundant and easier to handle. Nuclear ContainerThis is a purpose built container for nuclear materials like Uranium, Thorium and Nuclear Fuel.Nuclear Core BuilderThis is a massive machine where you can build Nuclear Reactor Cores, that can then be used to build your own Nuclear Reactors instead of having to import them into the colony.What's NextWe are working on a few different things, including Robots and Drones, which we will hope to show in the next update.We can't wait to share the game with everyone, thank you for your support!Martiño.

  Planetbase 2 - Rocket Fuel Dev Update

  Hello Everyone!Welcome to the Rocket Fuel and Landing Pad dev update (see previous updates 01, 02, 03, 04, 05)We are now getting to the exciting point in the development where we are adding the most interesting features to the game.This time around we've been focusing on the landing infrastructure and propellant manufacturing side of things. This is a completely new feature in Planetbase 2.Landing Pad attachmentsThe Landing Pad will feature several attachments, unlocked as you progress in the game, that improve it's functionality.Basic Pad: Only small Colonist and Visitor Ships can land. Resource Storage: Allows Trade Ships to land. Propellant Storage: Allows refueling of ships. This increases ship capacity and lowers trade prices. Tower: Enables large ships to land.Methalox RefineryThis is a structure that combines Oxygen and Carbon from the Martian CO2 atmosphere, with Oxygen and Hydrogen from Water (H2O) to produce Rocket Fuel. On planets with no atmosphere the production chain will be different.TankerThis new vehicle can carry Rocket Fuel between the Refinery and the Landing Pad in order to refuel ships. Propellant TankThis structure comes in 3 different sizes, and can store Propellant previously created in the Refinery, for future use.Industrial ConsoleThis is a Control Center component, where your engineers can monitor the Methalox Refinery and other external production structures.What's Next?We are now working on the various Bots and Drones, there will be some old friends from Planetbase 1 coming back and some new additions too.You can wishlist if you want, and let us know what you think in the forums.Martiño.
