We have bit of an odd collection of topics for this Dev Update.

Victor has been working on two new objects for the game, and we'll give you a first look at them.

Mining drones

For the station to function and expand, it's essential to bring in outside materials like water, ore and fuel. To do this, we have the mining ship, which you load up with colonists and send them off on mining missions, to planets, moons or asteroids.

But we also wanted an easier, less risky and more consistent way of bringing in these resources, especially for early-game, and thus the idea of a mining drone was born.
