My Colony v0.48.0 Released

I just released My Colony v0.48.0 a few minutes ago! There are some cool new things in the update, but seeing as I am in a bit of a hurry today the release notes post will be shorter than normal, but feel free to discuss the update further in the comments. Here is what's new:

My Colony v0.48.0 Changelog

New Structures: Supermarket, Megamart, Hall of Congress, Ancient Alien Ore Refinery, Ant Paste Synthesizer, Small Sugar Processor
New Techs: Political Theater, Ant Paste Synthesis
New Vehicles: Sugar Rover
New ad-free Unit: Turbo Drone

Changes: Multiple vehicles can now be queued up in a single building for construction. I also made the Zolarg Mound create more food than it used to, to make Zolarg Ice World not so hard at the very beginning.

Fixes: Fixed an issue where Synthetic Crystalline could no longer be built. Also fixed a bug where building roads on a large map would cause a lot of lag. Other small fixes here and there.

Notes
Again, sorry for the short release notes on this one, I am getting ready to travel for a few days and wont be able to address any issues that crop up during the rest of the week, so hopefully the update goes smooth! Just want to note that the Turbo Drone is my first test at a premium-vehicle, and also my first test of a vehicle that can build faster than the normal build speed (it is 40x faster than a normal drone).

I wanted to add more gamepad support in this one but I didn't get around to it. I did test out the current Windows 10 build of My Colony on my Xbox One though and it runs pretty good, the interface just needs cleaned up. So maybe before long My Colony will be coming to a TV near you.

That's all for now, enjoy the update!

This update seems pretty cool as always but i saw that you were testing it on a xbox. This may be a little too soon, but are you going to make an option to show the colony on smartTVs or whatever they are called aswell?

Argh! I will need to remove some of my recycling centers to make ant paste synthesizers. At least now I won't need to import/trade ant paste.

It says that Ad-Free has no effect to gameplay, just decorations and now we get a drone which builds 40 times faster?
Its me Lego.

Those mines are at full capacity ,plus the housings for workers are just next to the mines loaded with all entertainment, shopping and hospitals. I have ard 125mines. 60 workers each but making 2 artifacts. Slow


Click on the structure then workers to see a list of all workers that are currently working at that structure, you'll see how many of them have the sleeping status or unemployed status, this is what is slowing down your production, I mean, some people retire and everyone needs to sleep. If your wages are too high, having a good 10% - 15% overpopulation / unemployment solves this issue, in my personal experience.

Does it usually take a while for the update to hit the Windows PC version? I'm itching for the new content.

I'm using the PC version and I already got the update, the day it was pushed out. Might want to make sure your AV program isn't blocking it, you can try disabling it and restarting the app to see if the update shows up.

Thanks. I'll give that a try.

The game is in constant flux, so there might be a technology in the future that will allow the harvesting/creation of diamond in worlds other than LIS asteroids.
