The main part of this iteration focuses on person groups, making it easier to manage large numbers of people and introducing new features to control their behavior.

Person Groups

Each person can now be assigned to a specific group, which you can define yourself. Group members share the same uniform color, which you can customize. You can also adjust the slots assigned to group members.
Configure groups using drag-and-drop in the group editor, the person selection panel, or when hiring them.
The Person Overview has been updated to display group statuses clearly.

Work Priorities

New work priorities allow you to prioritize specific tasks, such as maintenance or transport, within the ship.

Day Schedule

Groups now have customizable day schedules, letting you configure when they work, sleep, or eat. This will be more useful with upcoming social needs, allowing people to eat together and form friendships.
Create shifts for groups, ensuring continuous coverage for tasks like firefighting, maintenance, or crafting.

Day Night

The day-night cycle, which enhances visual appeal and gameplay, can be adjusted in the group setup.

Placement Improvements

In playtests, players often had trouble placing interior items that require walls. Now, these items automatically rotate toward the required walls and snap into the correct position. Additionally, the drag logic for items has been improved, making it easier to place larger objects.
There's also a new preview for doors when placing rooms, helping you see the requirements more clearly.

Configurable Resource Overview

The Resource Overview in the lower-left corner can be customized to meet user needs, with a useful preset available at the start.

Changeable Interior Item Colors

You can now change the colors of interior items like tables and beds. The bed color matches the uniform color for easy identification.

Smaller Changes

Other updates include a Steam login button for new players and improvements to the crafting and storage UI for better clarity and ease of use.
