This is really fun!... Except for the colonist glitch. I really enjoy the concept and gameplay of this, but my game got to a point where nothing was happing. I read some others talking about how the colonists aren't doing anything, so I assume I'm having the same problem. Please fix it, and keep up the great work!
Every time I play this game everyone randomly freezes and stops moving. I hope you fix this issue soon and I'd definitely recommend this game to my friends. and I know for a fact a huge YouTuber called Markiplier would definitely be interested in playing this mainly because of the fact its in space. Keep up the awesome work! and ill be recommending this to all my friends as well because we love these types of games.
Thanks for the comment and for the kind words! The game is definitely still under development and I'm actively working on fixing up the colonist behavior system right now. There are a lot of things planned for the game and a big focus of this current version was to see if people were interested in what I had so far. Thanks again and keep an eye out for more updates. :)
colonists keep getting soft locked, this can be from going idle,grab_5_structure _resin back and forward, i dont know how to recreate this but it is VERY common when i play. plz fix
There is an update in the works to fix the colonist behavior, but will probably take a bit. I'm working on a revamp of the colonist behavior system. Thanks for playing and for the comment!
