Hello everyone. We've made significant behind-the-scenes changes in our latest release. We’ve restructured project files, separating runtime and editor data, which is a substantial step towards both the feature complete beta and the first runtimes. We also implemented a comprehensive project file testing and troubleshooting framework to ensure file input/output is as reliable as possible. This foundational work took precedence in this cycle, so we're back to working on the the workflow flexibility improvements for next release. Thanks for your continued support.

Mimi gifted him some kisses :3
This week we'd like to feature Down To Earth Astronomy's Underspace video. Apparently he's shutting down his channel next month so definitely give the video a watch before that happens. It's really well done so it's a shame that this might be the only Underspace video he makes, but I know I speak for us all when I say we wish him the best in his future endeavors.
As always, if you're interested in trying out Underspace for yourself, you're more than welcome to give our latest demo a go. You're also invited to join the Underspace Discord. Like, I'm personally inviting you. All of you. Bring caffeine.
Now that we're all settled in the Underspace Discord, let's move onto what I did this week:
+ Added more volatile settings to cargo. + Added cargo expansions to places. + Added an indicator for autosave. + Rebalanced NPC hardpoints for destruction. + Deaddrops can be fighters. + Assassin targets can now override legendary spawns. + Added some more mission results and events. + Comms can call mission code. + Added more missions. + Finished adding all random missions.
One exciting thing to note is that I'm starting to transition into the polishing stages now that the mission work is more or less completed. November will see updates along those lines, so stay tuned for more of that.
Once again, thank you all for supporting Underspace, It's really cool to see your videos, tweets, comments, and posts about Underspace. Want to yell at us if you haven't already? Please give the Underspace socials a follow:
I'm happy to finally release a new version of the Sparky bot, which should now be more of a challenge! It is not yet AI driven, but the code is taking shape to allow for it.
I also had the time to add hundreds of hints when you have take in-game decisions. This will remove doubts on what you are about to do and should greatly help newcomers as well as advanced players.
