Version 0.3.0

Added

• New Megastructures build category for the warp gate, space elevator, and ascension spire.
• A searchable, filterable SSNN news archive.

Changed

• Sweeping art and interface refresh: modernized HUD, ware and building icons, framed panels, redesigned building interiors, and a new build menu.
• UI/UX improvements to how the game's lore is presented and uncovered.
• The Power build category is now Utilities (power and life support), and Erase has its own button on the build dock.
• Power and oxygen readouts now show Used / Available.
• Research cards redesigned with a clearer unlock button and locked / affordable states.
• Buildings under construction now show only the build animation.
• Updated the tutorial to cover the new mechanics.
• Scroll down on the solar-system map to zoom out to the galaxy.

Fixed

Balance

• Softer building upkeep, and adjusted station and mine supply range.
