One result was the addition of new visualization modes for data about your […]
A set of new unrelated mechanics was recently added to provide more strategic options. I’ll summarize them together here. Propulsion Overloading Similar to overloadable energy weapons, some hover and flight modules will now support overloading as well.

As we’ve seen before the 7DRL version did away with all special cases, which is great for pumping out a quick […]

As the “Cogmind,” you play a special robot that can attach to any kind of part, all of which fall into one of four categories: Power Sources: […]
