Minor Update 36.3

Howdy Folks!

Update 36.3 is another smaller update, but includes some great quality of life additions and a few fixes. A huge thanks for all the great feedback.

Controlled Edibles

Set allowed edibles section in colonist info panel

You can now control what a colonist will and will not eat, but setting their allowed edibles in the settings tab of their info panel. Allowed edibles can be copied and pasted to better control your colony food intake.

Wind Turbine Hover Info

Hover info showing wind turbine efficiency and elevation during placement

The wind turbine generates more or less power depending on elevation. This efficiency information is now displayed while placing the wind turbine so that you can ensure you place it in a good spot.

Job Role Assignments Overview

A new section on the colonist management screen has been added which gives a quick breakdown of how many colonists are assigned to each job role and at what priority.

Check out the release notes below for the full list of changes, fixes and additions. There are more smaller updates coming. Let me know what you like, what you don’t and what you would want to see in Mercury Fallen.

Thanks everyone and stay safe out there!
