cool game. How to get suff out of the rover without the autofeeder?  also how to get the content info of the rover since it has no racks, the only info that I can get is `self.cargo.count()` and `self.cargo.capacity().

It also would be great if the demo simply would stall at the end and let the user explore the elements he already unlocked instead of the hard ending. I was a bit upset that I could not unlock and try all the things not labeled "only full game"

Hi, thanks ! 

You need the autofeeder research to move things to inventory/bins/warehouse etc. It's a required research for transporting items, but it's fairly easy to get early.

Notice that the info tab is a presentation of the rover's fundamentals, but the DOCS have the full API specification. 


That said, the rover is designed to be a more primitive vehicle. The pioneer is more granular on purpose. For .cargo on the rover you get count() and capacity() — there's no per-mineral readout because it's a single integrated bin, your script just tracks the id of what you are carrying. Pioneer uses racks that are way more versatile and intended for the first line of transportation in the game

Yeah the demo has an ending based on terraforming, but I feel like it has a good amount of content available and also one can go slow on the terraforming to test various things slowly. I just had to have some sort of an ending that makes sense :) The full game will be available in 2-3 months though so hopefully people can enjoy the rest of the game, it gets very deep later with outposts,drones,smelting, fabrication etc..

seems I made the mistake to set up  two of each terra forming device. I got the drill and the rafinery way before the autofeeder that I am now unable to get because the game ends before this. And I can not load it and and stop all devices before the game ends again :-(

It's not a mistake, it's actually the correct way to play it, but notice that the DEMO progress bar above is based on terraforming. Full game will of course be completely open, you would be able to do whatever you like. For the demo, If you want you can always start a new game, it should be easy to copy the scripts you already made so that you can see the remaining demo features. 

will the game be only released on steam or also here or on gog?

Yes, it will absolutely be released on steam and other platforms as well if people ask for it. In fact, the Steam page is currently being reviewed and I expect it to be up in a 2-3 days or even earlier. The steam link is in this page, below, and it will be accessible shortly, feel free to wishlist it there if you like. The full release will probably be around August/September.
