Asteroid Stations – QOL – Bug Fixes
✨ Improvement The NPC Missions and Pirate Intelligence panels on the right of your screen have had a slight makeover.

Mining Drones & Planetary Harvesters, how they actually work

Mining Drone and Harvester Boost
⚖️ Balance Change Good news for anyone running a planetary harvesting operation. We have taken a long look at how much your harvesters pull from a planet each hour, and we decided they were being far too modest about it. As the galaxy grows and the recipes you are chasing lean more and more on […]

A full line of cruiser grade weaponry is now on the workbench: eight new guns built for hulls that can carry serious firepower.
