Beta v1.0.7 - Cargo ships and minor fixes

This is a relatively minor update. But I did want to get these fixes out while I'm working on the next, bigger patch. The Cargo Ships are now better distributed over all available landing pads. The previous patch already had some fixes to handle collisions better. But this will help create fewer collisions. This should help with the performance of your trade routes. But it's up to the player to make sure there are enough Landing Pads at a colony! Previously a selected Cargo Ship would always land near a fixed approach point of a colony. With this update the cargo ship will come down within view of your camera, or at a landing pad nearby the camera. For the next patch I'm working on customizable keybindings and gamepad support. Which should also mean the beginnings of Steam Deck compatibility. The changelog for v1.0.7: - Cargo ships on a trade route make better use of all available landing pads - Cargo ships will try to land on a colony within the player's camera view - Tweak cargo ship approach vectors for a nicer animation when going to or coming from space - Set newly built Cryo Pods to Freeze - Prioritize the Floater Inflater, and deprioritize empty habitats when distributing Floaters - Prevent the incoming messages animation getting stuck - Fix right-click behavior on area marker indicator

Explore the Trappist-1 solar system

Fly through the Trappist-1 solar system and survey each planet to find the best locations for your colonies.

Discover and excavate alien artifacts hidden in the system and uncover the true purpose of Trappist-1.

Build your colonies

Build colonies on the planets and moons of Trappist-1. Each colony has distinct resources and buildings that are necessary for success.

Fill your cargo ships with the extracted resources and fly them to your manufacturing or population centers. Create automated trading routes for stable production chains across your colonies.

Fly your Ark as a mobile colony or place it strategically as your central trading hub.

Trappist is under active development. But as a solo developer I can't guarantee everything will be implemented, or will be implemented to an extent you might want or expect. I recommend you consider purchasing this game based on its current state alone.
