Patch 1.0.4

Greetings, a new patch that I've been working on for the last week is now available. From now on, I will be making game updates using the normal procedure, meaning that first they will be tested on a beta branch. I'm making an announcement when an update is available on the beta branch on our discord. UX, Quality of life

Undo turn button in the escape menu. I think it was the most requested feature, so I had to make it.
In the migration popup highlight in red color the reason why new people cant join your colony
Videos in the building preview popup with explanations for Factories (Factories dry fertile soil nearby!)
The building preview popup show info that plants require time to fully grow
Tip in mission 4 about installing a Water Conveyor module after you are getting underground
Button to show the next tip on the loading screen
More loading screen tips
Confirmation buttons for abandon run and restart game in the escape menu

Gameplay adjustments

Slower happiness decay (decrease). This should make it easier to build and support bigger colonies.
Leave sand tile after the silicon deposit is exhausted
Slightly reduced income from life
Added inflation for terraforming shop prices linked to the population size. It would slowly grow after your colony hits 200 population. This should make a late game, when you have a huge economy, a little more challenging
Easier to scan solid walls (same speed as for regular walls), and harder to scan mountains on the surface
Mission 7 changes:

[spoiler]- Mini objective to research the technology required for the artificial sunlight module - Bigger breaks between dust storms - More visible passages on the surface - More good starting positions on the surface - Instead of 1 big rare metal deposit, 2 smaller rare metal deposits on depth [-1] - Bigger room with a passage to the depth [-5] - Slightly fewer wastelands on the surface[/spoiler] Misc

Keep running the game after switching to another program
When failing to load a savefile, show a dialogue with possible solutions

Fixes

Max Power achievement is fixed
True Legend achievement extra check when in the main menu
And That's a Wrap! achievement extra check when on the campaign screen
Save file corruption because of the wrong technology research objective serialization
Hide UI when losing population
Localization fixes and adjustments
Mission 1 was in the sandbox after the restart

Lead the charge in establishing a colony on Mars in this turn-based strategy game with a nostalgic look but fresh gameplay. Use specialized tools to terraform the planet, build residential areas for your colonizers, and construct resource-producing factories in an effort to become a self-sustaining society.

BUILD A COLONY

Create a viable habitat for your settlers by building water pumps, establishing farms on fertile ground, harnessing the power of the sun, and mining for precious minerals. Make sure to plan carefully before building. The position of each building will provide additional bonuses based on their placement. For example, placing a wind turbine near mountains will provide an increase in electricity output.

GO UNDERGROUND

In case you run out of space on the surface or are in need of further resources, you can always choose to expand below. Utilize terraforming tools to dig underground and uncover new areas for expansion, discover artifacts, and harness rare minerals. The more resources you collect, the more your colonists will prosper.

TERRAFORMING SYSTEM

Use a turn to select a terraforming kit and shape the landscape to your colony’s advantage. Need a water source? Place a water drop tile into a canyon and watch the surrounding flat land become fertile. Not enough resources? Create new mineral deposits or simply expand pre-existing ones.

Terraforming tiles have preset shapes, so be careful when configuring where to place them! You may end up with ice if you place a water drop tile on flat ground instead of a canyon. Be wise in your choices and always plan two steps ahead.

REPLAYABILITY

Each playthrough a new map will be procedurally generated and will provide fresh challenges to overcome. The same applies to terraforming patterns that you are getting, trading proposals, and even weather conditions.
