Mid-Month Update (Patreon)

Hey all, time for a mid-month update! First off, if you're here you're probably noticing that the Patreon page has gotten a new coat of paint, and the blogspot page has been updated as well. I do want to note again that the new tier rewards will not be taking effect until October, also I want to add that Liberator and Overseer tiers will get supporter credit in the game, starting in Oct, which I left out of the previous rewards update list.

Other than that, I've been crunching a lot of code the past few weeks. The crew requisition system is now complete, with the ability to trade and buy crewmembers, and players will be receiving a number of crew requisitions to spend at the end of the introduction. I've also made quite a bit of progress with expanding the ship, with the other rooms now available (as seen attached) and new functionality set up for non-bridge station assignments to provide various kinds of bonuses. Currently I'm working on a few changes to improve potential save compatibility issues, as we're still in a stage where code structure can change a bit from version to version.

Once I finish my current tasks, I plan to take a look at crew management stuff. As I plan to allow crews to eventually grow quite large there will need to be a good way to sort through them, and then...get to know them a little better. After that it will finally be time to start writing some content for when captains arrive in the Harian system, although I'm not expecting to get very far into that by the first Patreon release.

That's all I have for tonight, so I'll see you again in a few weeks! Thanks for your support!
