HexapodPhilosopher’s new model looks great!

(For those who cannot access the Lounge, HexapodPhilospher posted that picture initially as a joke, saying it was a model for a new organelle).

I wonder if society and industrial will get some meat thrown at them next as to not make them as barren as they are currently after this update…

Like having the ability to take control of individual units?

I suppose so. Industrial especially needs some love out of all the prototype stages (though I know they’re obviously not the focus)

Spore city stage might get a redemption… In a way…

I really hope the Space Stage doesn’t actually start with your first spacecraft and instead with some kind of technology that makes space travel within your solar system faster/easier or something because otherwise the industrial stage will be this awkward micro-stage that only lasts like 200 years ingame.

That’s why there have been proposals to shape up the industrial-space stage space a bit to make the staging over there less confusing or overall β€œbetter”

You can already have the 1st building customly rotated so it can’t be THAT hard to add this into other buildings’ placement, right?

Oh right, during christmas and after it I think

Yes, but that will likely be just after the last PU of this year, effecting the first couple of next year.

I feel like for an update lacking Hhyyrylainen half its development 1.2.0 will feel surprisingly feature-rich

According to the past data, it happened around late December for the last two years.

I kind of though it was also a pause before those 2 years?

Industrial will likely operate on a different timescale than Society. The theme would be a lot more things changing much faster than before.

As an aside, I feel like Macroscopic will end up being a bit of a micro-Stage.

I suppose there’s a reason it and multicellular used to be one and the same stage…
