Hello managers! A while has passed since we shared the article about the upcoming 0.9 update. Our initial plan was to release it at the same time as the winter sale, but after some thinking, we decided to postpone the update one more month to provide as much polish as possible. The amount of polish we provide is the team's number one priority right now as we are getting closer and closer to the full release. We also took some time to truly analyze the player feedback we've been getting on some parts of the game that don't deliver as much fun as the rest. This feedback helped us pinpoint some core problems with the game that no matter how many "solutions" we introduced over the last months, we couldn't fully fix them. With the 0.9 update, we are taking a whole new approach to what a space station management game can be. So here's a list of things that you'll see in the 0.9 update by the end of this month:

• Multiple station support. (This was harder than it sounds.)
• New system to simulate each customer across multiple stations.
• Reworked reputation system.
• New buildings.
• 3 playable stations with different stats.
• Overhauled electricity system.
• Overhauled event system.
• Overhauled jumpgate building system.
• UI redesign.
• Billboard system overhaul.
• A LOT of quality of life changes.
• Reworked station policies.
• Reworked customer thought system.
• New and more relevant Steam achievements.
• Huge optimization improvements.
• Customers on the galaxy map are now trackable and fully simulated.
• Items and upgrades are removed.
• Drones are temporarily removed while we keep working on a better drone system. (Expected 0.9.5)
• Language support for multiple languages is removed to decrease development time. They will be reintroduced with the 1.0 full launch along with a new internal tool to make translation faster.
• Stock trading is removed.
• Visual improvements.
• ...and some other surprises.
