After a few weeks of background work, planning and programming, we can finally show you some raw game footage with the new mechanics.
Cables & Electricity
The Cable system is mostly done with a few exceptions. We have added a system where the player can have multiple circuits and add on and remove wires with ease. Each system will require you to hook up the wires to a power output (ex: Coal Generator or Wind Turbine), a battery and a power input (ex: A Electric Heater)
There will be Symbols on the Cable Overlay to show where to hook up the cables but this will be shown in a later Devlog.
There is still some work with the electricity system but we are making some good progress on it. Some unfinished work are tool tips showing info on each selected circuits, warnings (if a circuit is missing connections), merging circuits and separating circuits.
New UI Panels
As you can see in the video, we have a new panel with all the overlay options. This is the first of many improvements to the UI system, many more are coming further in development.
