And that's it for today's devlog! We hope you will enjoy the new update, have fun on the 🔴 Red Planet!

Yours,
Occupy Mars team

We are ready to reveal more news that the upcoming Nuclear Update ☢️ contains for you. You have already learned what supply drops are and how they work. One of the next special events you may encounter during gameplay is:


Keep an eye 👀 on your tablet; sometimes you might receive a signal from a probe. If you choose to follow the signal, a dedicated tracking point 📍 will appear on your screen. The event is not time-limited, so you don't have to rush, but hey, who doesn't want to reveal the mystery already? 😏

Probes contain pendrives which are small electronic devices carrying technology data.


You can get it out of the probe and insert it into the corresponding science bench. The bench will decode the pendrive and you will be rewarded with experience points. 💡 You can use any bench you want or have access to, but using the appropriate one will give you the most experience points, so choose wisely!


We've also added two additional Historical Sites - Mars3 lander and Mariner probe. So get ready to go on an expedition and try to find them. And if you're a kind of photographer soul - take a screenshot 📸 of them, we'd love to see it!


That's all for today, but not all in this update! Check previous devlogs, stay tuned for more information about the upcoming update and feel free to share your thoughts with us by anytime simply hitting F4 during the gameplay or writing to our support address http://mailto:eracolonisthelp@gmail.com 🎮

Take care,
Occupy Mars team

The upcoming Nuclear Update ☢️ hides new features and mechanics - but what are these? As promised, we're going to reveal the mystery, step by step in the devlogs, and this is one of them!




You can now expect packages 📦 of essential equipment and resources from the E.R.A. If there is a supply drop scheduled somewhere in your area, you will get a notification. Follow the coordinates from notification 📍 and see what's inside! 🗺️




There are small and big Miners - both were designed to facilitate the mining ⛏️ process by retrieving the resources straight from underground sources.



Use the new functionality of your spectral detector (which needs to be upgraded to lvl 3) or the Heavy Rover (unlock new technology to use it) to scan your surroundings in search for resource spots and build the automated miner* in the most convenient place.
*Miners require uranium rods to work.



We will show you more features in upcoming devlogs, so stay tuned!
All brave colonists aboard and see you next time! 👋

Take care,
OM team
