You can now browse and visit colonies built by other players even when they're offline. When the owner is offline, global events such as Raids would not trigger., It's currently ranked by how long they have survived for. When you click "Visit Colony", the "new" tab would list ranked colonies created within the week, while the "top" tab lists all time top-ranking results. The colony menu has also been improved by showing the daysAlive count of each member, merging the guest/member list, and showing the owner name of the colony your visiting.
Basically, player persistence across worlds/colonies. Currently, when you visit other worlds, a new player instance is created each time, and you dont retain any inventory from your current colony. Someone (axel) on discord suggested that an animal crossing like multiplayer where you can bring stuff to other people would be great. And I do agree that it'll be nice to have that kind of player persistence, and facilitate trading, helping each other out, and retaining your character profile.
