Title: Status Update (March, 2019)
Post by: leeor_net on March 02, 2019, 07:48:33 PM
Hey forumites! been awhile since I posted a dev update so I figure now is as good a time as any.

I published v0.7.11 (https://forum.outpost2.net/index.php/topic,6242.0.html) yesterday so now it's time to plan and get started on v0.8.0.

I've added a few new tasks to the GitHub roadmap for 0.8.0. This next release will mostly be about improving the resource management side of the simulation, in particular how mines are generated (the current method of weighting mine yields is naive and kind of terrible), truck routing (this is will be handled automagically through basic pathfinding but the user will have the ability to override a mine's choice of smelter and improving throughput of materials trucking by changing truck assignment), bio-waste generated by colonists and the inclusion of the Recycling Facility (to deal with bio-waste among other wastes produced by the colony).

Should be a fun update when it's finished. Then on to research.
