VERY interesting game, but I wish there was a way to view my stats, such as DPS, water consumption/tick, water recycling %, and other similar things. Also, I found that it is much more efficient to simply build TV stations rather than to build more crew quarters, since the crew quarters cost so much water to run. Also, it seemed to me that building water recyclers and then building the crew quarters to fully staff them actually makes you consume significantly more water than before, which completely defeats the purpose of building them in the first place. It turned out that, once I had one 3-tile solar panel, one 1-tile railgun, one 1-tile life tank, and one 1-tile nanobot repair, the only other thing that was worth building was Jump Boosts, since it doesn't cost any resources. I just filled my ship with Jump Boosts and jumped around with my un-upgraded probes until I found the signal.

Ahhh thanks for the feedback! Yee the crew quarters were balanced pretty badly, v1.07 should address that issue (Much less water usage, and lesser cost to build, and also hold less crew - so the jump in food requirements don't go through the roof). TBH it's not balanced well atm, I over complicated the build section and didn't have time to sort everything out.
Very interesting strategy to use the jump boosts to get around XD Sounds like that module is broken XD
RE: the stats, I should add those. Defo will keep in mind if I make something similar. Many thanks!
