Development update 2016-07-27
By user request, shops and pallets now always display their selected resource, and visibly warn when its stock is 0.
It's now possible to disable extraction of one or more resources on a planet, to make more efficient use of both the on-planet storage and ship storage.
The resource view in the galaxy screen is so crowded it's useless. In addition to balance changes, the galaxy screen will now only display one selected resource, making it actually useful.
The ship building system has been started. First all the ships in the game have been assigned stats for speed, cargo size and crew size, then sorted by tiers to give a nice research progression. The next task is implementing the station objects for ship buildings,which will be base on a series of resource intensive jobs that contribute to an overall completion %.
Firefighting has been improved by making the fear to fire only affect hurt officers, and by finally implementing job priorities. This means different jobs can have different priorities, even from the point of view of a single officer (this is different from the general priority system in the game, which governs things like working vs fleeing in panic, and is already working well). A future task will expose this new priority flexibility in the job matrix. But for now firefighting has been hardcoded to be the highest priority job.
In an effort to make the storage area better, now officers dump the delivered resources in the central object, which warps them to an empty tile or stacks them over an existing stack. This means it will stay better organized. To make this clearer the storage area now animates the action of warping or stacking. Additionally stack sizes and max pallet stock has been increased.

Work avances steadily towards the next build, planed for next week. A lot of small enhancements have been added to the game, and then work on the next big feature, ship building, has been started.
Empty stock warning
By user request, shops and pallets now always display their selected resource, and visibly warn when its stock is 0.
Toggle resource extraction
It's now possible to disable extraction of one or more resources on a planet, to make more efficient use of both the on-planet storage and ship storage.
Single resource view in galaxy
The resource view in the galaxy screen is so crowded it's useless. In addition to balance changes, the galaxy screen will now only display one selected resource, making it actually useful.
Start of work on ship building
The ship building system has been started. First all the ships in the game have been assigned stats for speed, cargo size and crew size, then sorted by tiers to give a nice research progression. The next task is implementing the station objects for ship buildings,which will be base on a series of resource intensive jobs that contribute to an overall completion %.
Firefighting fixes and job priorities
Firefighting has been improved by making the fear to fire only affect hurt officers, and by finally implementing job priorities. This means different jobs can have different priorities, even from the point of view of a single officer (this is different from the general priority system in the game, which governs things like working vs fleeing in panic, and is already working well). A future task will expose this new priority flexibility in the job matrix. But for now firefighting has been hardcoded to be the highest priority job.
Storage area animation
In an effort to make the storage area better, now officers dump the delivered resources in the central object, which warps them to an empty tile or stacks them over an existing stack. This means it will stay better organized. To make this clearer the storage area now animates the action of warping or stacking. Additionally stack sizes and max pallet stock has been increased.

About Weird and Wry
Weird and Wry is a Barcelona game development studio founded in 2014 by two brothers: Carlos and Max Carrasco. Carlos (a programmer) and Max (an artist) share a love for simulation games and classic play -- which heavily influenced The Spatials, their first project. Inspired by the great classic sim games of the '90s, The Spatials combined classic base-building gameplay (based on isometric tile room building) with a real-time combat system and an exploration campaign. The Spatials was released on Steam in March 2015 and took off! Thanks to its success and growing fan base, The Spatials spawned a sequel -- The Spatials: Galactology, which updates the original concept with deeper gameplay and a whole new take on the space station management business.MINIMAL SETUP
