[h2]How's it going, engineers?[/h2]
Winter is coming, and so is our update. This time we're not only bringing some bugfixes. Statistics Panel and Blueprint UI will receive some optimizations, and a new Hints System will be introduced. Broadcast Voices has its own settings now.
Here is the preview of the new contents:
[h2]Statistics Panel[/h2]

Statistics Panel will have some more practical changes. In this update, more information will show for each item. Now you can view the Import/Export Rate of an item on a planet or in a star system.
The Search Box allows searching item by name. And Storage Amount is the total amount of an item on a planet or in a star system.

In the Power tab, a radial chart is added. This chart will easily demonstrate the supply and consumption ratio and power status. And the power generation, consumption, charging status will be shown for all the facilities.

Just started the game, don't know what to do? Always get lost and have no goals? Collecting stones and trees around and forget your next-step?
Now the new Game Goals will aid you and help you get acquainted with the game.

Or you might be just returning from a long break, needing some hints for your goals? To help you with this, when loading a save file, you can select the Level of Game Goals you may want.

Blueprint UI will have some optimizations. Now in Blueprint Mode, the planet surface, water, foundations, and the models of facilities, belts and sorters will be displayed in a different color and style.

When failing to paste a Blueprint, detailed information will be displayed for locating the error. The pasting area will have a better visual for finding out the erroring facility.

When failing to copy a Blueprint, hold Ctrl to hide buildable facilities, only display the red facilities. And hold Shift will hide the unbuildable facilities.

[h2]Broadcast Voice Settings[/h2]
Early this year, we added the VO for our broadcasts. Since then, we've been receiving requests for having the old AI VO back. So, we made a decision to let the players choose by their preference.
Now you can change the Broadcast Voice Timbre for each broadcast, or turn some of them off.
