Roboplant - paolo
We know, it's still not December and we are already releasing the December features! This is not entirely true. You will be able to experiment with the new features in a preview branch (instructions at the end of the article) but, there is a big BUT here! There will be bugs, plenty of them! Plus the game won't be localized yet, it will be available only in English.
Usually, once we finish the features for the next release it takes around 2 weeks between squeeze out bugs and localizing the new content. This is why it will be officially available at the beginning of December.
We thought that it could be nice to have your feedback early on, which is why we created the preview branch.
Ok now it's time to talk about what is coming out in the new version, we will make a more detailed post once we officially release it.
It's cold and it's snowy, it's perfect weather to stay inside and be cozy. And it looks amazing to grow plants in these conditions!
Planning something new to produce was pretty tedious, which is why we simplified the process to make it more smooth.
Many of you requested a more clear view of the workers' priority management panel and a better way to manage them. Hopefully, the new UI will satisfy your needs and the new copy tool will make it much easier to manage many workers.
Grow a tasty melon or a nice aromatic Praise! They will need their environment conditions but once set up they will grow beautifully!
These are the main features coming out! We hope that will keep you busy for a while. We don't plan to add new features in the December release but instead focus on making Roboplant more stable and less buggy. We will make soon an update on what we will be working on in December. And yes, filters for storage is something in our mind :D
This is all for now. Let us know what you think if you decide to try the new features.

Move constructions
It may come a time when you want to move constructions, and before you had to destroy and build them again manually. Now with the new move tool, it should be faster.Auto import resources
Finally, you can set up your automatic imports so that you don't have to manually check your storage for what is needed.Additional storages
You managed to fill up the initial storage very quickly so you needed extra space. Now you'll be able to place new additional storage to satisfy your needs!These are the main features coming out!
