Hello Everyone,

Welcome to our 4th Planetbase 2 dev update! (see previous updates 01, 02 and 03)

https://psteamproxy.yuanyoumao.com/app/3509420We've spent a lot of last year implementing systems and infrastructure for the game (we are coding it from scratch), and we are now finally at a stage where we can produce new features quickly.

These are the highlights over the last few weeks:

This is a manned work vehicle that is able to harvest surface resources (like Iron, Ice or Silicates) faster than individual colonists.

It can carry a bunch of resources at once, and deposit then in a Storage Area or Cargo Bay.

This is an intermediate step in the mining tech tree, before you can fully automate it using bots and drones.

This is an automatic exterior production structure you get right at the start. It compacts Regolith into Blocks that can then be used to build some of the opaque domes and structures.

This is the initial water production structure. At the beginning before you can automate water production using Water Extractors, you will be able to mine Ice and take it here to be melted, to produce Water.

This structure can harvest CO2 from the atmosphere (if the planet has one, otherwise this structure is not available), and combine with H20 using electricity to produce Monomers.

These can then be used in the Processing Plant to create Plastic. This is an alternative production chain to complement Bioplastic produced from Starch.

This is a console located in the Control Center that monitors power generating structures like the Nuclear Reactor, Geothermal Plant and Fusion Reactor.

The Radio Antenna is making a comeback from Planetbase 1, but this time around with a much larger variety of events and types of visitors, that will have different needs and rewards.

The place you control the Radio Antennas from.

Stay tuned for our next updates, covering Waste Management and Propellant ManufacturingWe post more regular updates on Reddit, Bluesky [bsky.app]and X[x.com].

Thank you all for your awesome support!

Martiño.
