Bug fix and content patch
We'll continue to keep an eye on bug reports as they come in. However, we're starting work on our next major patch, adding some huge new features. We don't want to boast about it too much, but we're very excited! We're doing a complete rework of the map system, and we'll finally begin to add the first segment of story to our little meeple. That's right, they have a homeworld!
Amongst a whole lot of minor details, we'll be focusing on three major aspects over this next month for our mega patch, I'll explain a bit more about what they are here.
As you can see from the screenshot above, we're working on changing the style of the map completely. The idea is that you'll begin your first station in orbit of a small moon or planet, and you'll be able to explore the other planets within your solar system using your own ships piloted by meeple. But wait! There's more!
We're going to be removing the Quantum travel feature for space stations, instead, you'll be able to explore with your ships. But that doesn't sound like an improvement? Well, that's because we're going to be adding a feature where you can send crew off to build a new station, and give YOU the user freedom to jump back and forth between both of your stations, managing two entirely separate crews but supplying one another with your own trade lines... and we don't really plan on having any limit to how many stations you can build. Lastly,
Where do trade ships come from? they just magically appear on the edge of the map with bountiful cargo. But that's changing, now we're creating simulated factions, you'll be able to see where they are on your map, as well as the pirate stations, and they'll only be bringing what they have. That means if a faction doesn't have any Magnetite nearby, they wont be bringing any on their trade ships. So that just about sums up the major changes we'll be working on the next few weeks, stay tuned! and of course, feel free to stop by our discord server and ask questions!

We've added some new bits of content this week, but heavily focused on cleaning up as many bugs as we can, especially after all of the recent large changes.
This week you may notice a new odour feature - if you're not diligent enough in keeping a hygienic bathroom, that is -
(Odours may not be as deadly as the GIF implies)
We also have a few changes to the research tree.
But most of the bug fixes you can view on the title screen's change log.
So what's next?

Firstly, the map
As you can see from the screenshot above, we're working on changing the style of the map completely. The idea is that you'll begin your first station in orbit of a small moon or planet, and you'll be able to explore the other planets within your solar system using your own ships piloted by meeple.

Multiple stations
We're going to be removing the Quantum travel feature for space stations, instead, you'll be able to explore with your ships. But that doesn't sound like an improvement? Well, that's because we're going to be adding a feature where you can send crew off to build a new station, and give YOU the user freedom to jump back and forth between both of your stations, managing two entirely separate crews but supplying one another with your own trade lines... and we don't really plan on having any limit to how many stations you can build.

- Meeple Station LINUX [1.19 G]
Meeple Station is a cooperative Space station Simulation game. Strongly inspired by Dwarf Fortress and Rimworld (with a hint of Space Station 13). Where the complexity of a simulation game blends with the friendly and satisfying nature of a Real-Time-Strategy game.
Meeple are simple creatures. They're not human, nor are they incredibly intelligent. They're a race of space fairing creatures who enjoy industry, work, and exploration. But they need a lot of guidance, YOUR guidance, in fact.
![]()
Meeple are very fragile creatures, and if not taken care of properly, can be prone to any number of possible fatalities. If you're not careful, they could easily fall victim to starvation, suffocation, implosion, explosion, decapitation, electrification, incineration or just unlucky enough to get sucked out of an airlock or gobbled up by an alien.
![]()
You will also be responsible for rigging up the main power grid, making sure everything is plugged in, and that you are creating enough power to keep everything alive!
You don't control individual Meeple, your job is to give them orders and create designations. They will always do their best to follow through on the jobs you create, unless of course they're being pursued by a giant electric man-eating space squid... although they may still attempt it.

Space is a dangerous place, putting aside natural disasters, solar flares and stray meteors, you also need to worry about pirates!
Meeple pirates are bent on destruction, they simply want nothing more than annihilation of everything non-pirate. That includes you and your Meeple!
If there are pirates near your station, they wont be able to resist the chance to create havoc. Defend yourself with trained Meeple, and combat turrets, otherwise your station will soon be a floating assortment of scrap.
A bustling station will bring in a lot of trade and commerce, traders will fly in from all over the quadrant to dock at your station. Which is fortunately very lucrative for you!
There are also plenty of resources just floating around. You can order your mining crew to get out there and salvage it. You can then refine the minerals you collect to construct and develop new components for your station.
Undertake a campaign, building difficult stations and meet pressing deadlines. Or sit back, relax and run your own little station, at your own pace, moving around the quadrant, exploring nearby planets and being a centre for trade and commerce.

Unique Meeple Roles
They come in various shapes, sizes and colours. And each Meeple has their own role, so you'll need to recruit the ones best suited for the jobs you need. Miners, engineers, refiners, janitors, guards or lab workers, there are plenty of jobs to be done.Meeple are very fragile creatures, and if not taken care of properly, can be prone to any number of possible fatalities.

Build it your way!
There is a wide range of paraphernalia for a space station. From simple furniture, like bedding and seating, to complex machinery, life support and power grids. You choose where and how to build it all, and your Meeple will have to adjust to your changes.You will also be responsible for rigging up the main power grid, making sure everything is plugged in, and that you are creating enough power to keep everything alive!
