This version addresses some feedback provided by several people. The biggest change is the addition of the Mech Factory without needing to research it first. This allows you to get to mech building quicker as it’s a core part of the game.

NEW SAVE REQUIRED - If you load an existing save, there is a pretty good chance buildings won’t be in the correct location and may be inside of mountains due to some world changes.

• Unlock Mech Factory and related recipes after building an Iron Beam instead of requiring a research point
• Added a Combat Bot that is unlocked by default.
• Changed the way you recruit natives. Instead of doing it through the World Map, you can do it through the Command Output building. This will restrict the amount of colonists you can recruit over time, so additional tuning may be needed. 
• Updated textures and graphic settings to make the characters stand out a bit more. Added fog.
• Increased the frequency of attacks from enemies on the planet
• Adjust the amount of enemy that spawn and type of units during attack based on the size of the colony, which will make it more difficult as the colony grows.
• Improved AI logic to be smarter about auto attacking other units. If an enemy is within a unit’s view (out of fog of war) and the enemy unit is attempting to attack, your unit will automatically engage.
• Adjusted the Strath Rebels units to be a bit more powerful
• Improved animations for Gastarians when in combat
• Fixed bug where you couldn’t place a Resource Miner on a Copper deposit
• Fixed bug where the production and consumption values displayed in the top bar only show your current sector. It’s now global to the planet.
• Fixed a bug where you sometimes wouldn’t get credit for destroying an enemy colony, even though all units have been destroyed.
• Fixed issue where mineral deposits could spawn on the side of a mountain
