Major update announcement!


After taking a long break from developing galaxy generator to work on other projects, I've finally decided to pick back up where I started and continue making new features for this little game.  I hoping to focus less on actual galaxy generation in this update (though there will be new additions to that) and add some survival-crafting elements to make the game a bit less aimless. Here's a list of features that are currently in the works:

Planet mining and exploration:  In the new update you will be able to land on the surface of planets and gather resources. Some materials will be unique to specific types of planets so there will be incentive to explore and find them.  

Crafting: You will be able to use the resources you gather from planets to craft fuel, placeable structures, and new parts for your ship.

Survival elements: You will have a limited supply of fuel and oxygen. The only way to survive will be to find sources of the materials to craft both.

More galaxy generation: The amount of stars and planets will be increased quite a bit so there will be more to explore in each galaxy generated.

Bug fixes: Some fixes will be made to planet collision to prevent them from orbiting in the same space

Since this update is rather large it may take a month or two to complete. Some features might have to be downsized or cut if they prove to be problematic. So far though, it looks like all of them could be added fairly easily.
