    Haven’t played for a couple years, any major improvements/changes? Blueprints and automated construction?

    Originally put it down after I realized it wasn’t scratching my “Factorio but in 3D” itch that i thought it would. Nothing wrong with the game it just wasn’t what I was looking for, it felt more like I was playing Subnautica or Fallout 4. Turns out that HEAVILY modded Space Engineers was what I was after.

      Have you tried Dyson Sphere Program? It’s rough around the edges and made by a chinese indie dev team so translations aren’t the best, but I like it

        Tried it a while back, thought it was really cool conceptually but it didn’t really scratch any itches for me so I put it down after a couple hours.

        I did hear they’re adding an enemy that expands/progresses, that was something that seemed to be missing when I tried so I’m considering giving it another spin once that update drops and/or I stop fiending on Xenonauts 2.

    I can’t remember dust storms in that game. When do they happen? Or maybe they happen somewhere away from where I built my bases.

      Have you played recently? After update 8 they added lumen, and I think this is part of it.

        Just checked. I haven’t played for a few months. Didn’t even know about update 8. Love that parachutes aren’t consumed on use now!

          They made them much more usable as well. I believe they’re faster and more easily controlled.
