October/November Giveaways Starting 2 Weeks From Now
I will be going on vacation from October 10 - November 9. @proto26 will handle the 5 🍉 [MELN] Weekly EXODE Wrap-Ups during this time period (posts # 58 - # 62). Be sure to look out for them on his profile, in the # exode-promotion-posts channel in the community Discord Server or in the #Oneup Community here on HIVE. He is an amazing writer so you are in good hands!
========================================
Hello, Pilots!
This week there have been a lot of backend improvements and some information on future features. @elindos has told me that Version 0.3 is likely going to be released on Wednesday September 28.
📰News:
Important Bugfixes
- "in some cases, citizens were using doppelgangers and clones to make your colony look more populated than it should. They were only illusions. We have purged them. Sorry!"
- "clicking on an inactive topic (chemicals, wildlife ranch etc) was causing normal topics (crew, tech) to become inactive."
- "create Team button was disappearing when re-clicking Active tabs & some other user sequences"
- "some Dangerous Passenger, Unstable Genius, Tech Expert, Socialite and Science Students were not detected properly as passenger generator cards"
Children
Children will be added as part of Version 0.3, which you can get from the "Nuclear Family" card or evacuating passengers during Evacuation. They will be able to be tutored in the future, which will give them skills to join your workforce later on. "Children and their education are normally how you train the best, most adapted characters in the new galaxy, the future heroes of untold glory. There is no "tutoring skill" but social and academic abilities should be good for it. Children and their safety are important for colony morale and happiness, of course, if they are part of your colony."
🎁Giveaway:
This week, 3 different people have a chance of winning:
This card can be equipped to your characters (or dropped to a colony) to give them extra ammunition. Not much to say, if you have it, bring it. This gives you the most extra magazines out of the 3 options. May be worth dropping to colony if you have a lot of them.

My favorite comment came from @proto26:
My main research project is analyzing the planet. My best researchers are on the job and I plan to unlock at least 2 more slots for the Casrarene Science team as soon as possible as it levels up. Some teams I left with a free space to have more, smaller teams working. Many people are still idle though. Maybe I'm anticipating more actions (like not just researching construction but actual construction) or more research roles being added. I don't want to have to disband many, if any, teams. Am I thinking too hard about or too far into the future about this? Or is the best strategy right now to go all out and have the entire colony researching?
I've discovered that Eliza makes a great leader for almost any research team.

I would be interested to hear your answer to your #3!

Weapons in Starters
Weapons are indeed a luxury but not necessarily required to preload before EVAC in my opinion.
Maybe I'm being harsh but doesn't putting weapon/s in starters make them too accessible? Either that or make it super weak like a "practice" weapon having rubber bullets or something. But I think perhaps having maybe one (or several?) rare/higher rarity individual weapons in boosters makes more sense. I imagine this hypothetical weapon being mediocre or... unbecoming? You know, without the flashiness of REKATRON. Haha
