NERMIUS

This update adds new colony mechanics, terraforming, city defenses, interplanetary assault and a pirate stronghold to Colony Ops, along with balance changes and a large batch of fixes. Colonies Epidemics. Disease spreads between colonies along roads and supply routes. The MEDBAY cures it. QUARANTINE stops the spread and also stops trade with that colony. Refugees. Refugee columns move between colonies. Overcrowded colonies gradually lose population they have no housing for. Industrial smog. Heavy industry pollutes nearby land and lowers farm output inside the affected area. The AIR SCRUBBER removes it. Credit line. You can borrow credits from factions. Interest rate and limit depend on your reputation. Missed payments lower reputation, and a large overdue debt allows the lender to take a colony. Memorial Spire. Can be built once per planet, in the capital. Raises mood in all colonies on the planet. Cannot be demolished. Workforce. Ore rigs, extractors and foundries require workers from the colony population. The SHIFTS order (EVEN / METAL / ORE) sets which buildings are staffed first when there are not enough workers. While you were away. After 10 or more minutes away from a planet

Land the lander. Grow the colony. Hold the world.Protocol 105 was about pulling ore out of a rock. COLONY OPS is about keeping people alive on it. This mode was developed even before the game was released by EA, and we are finally presenting it.New: COLONY OPS Colonies with real ground under them - every planet is generated: terrain, rivers, lakes, tides, named seas. Where you land decides what you get.Colony tiers - grow an outpost into a colony, a province, and finally a single capital that lifts the whole planet's tax.Day, seasons and weather - a 25-minute year, hemispheres in opposite seasons, a snow line that crawls toward the equator and back. Dust fronts, ion storms, solar flares, bio blooms and rich seams drift across your sectors.Live precipitation - rain and snow form in random cells, drift with the wind, and die. On a temperate world it can rain at the equator while it snows at the pole.Power grid - reactors, wind, solar, tidal and rad-catcher stations. Every colony now carries an emergency reserve, so a dust storm sags the grid instead of killing it outright. Armies - infantry, vehicles, aircraft and navy, each from its own building. Ferry troops across straits, be

Select planets, track threats, and manage extraction from orbit.Cave mining - deploy to X-01-ETHA, DR-COR8, and KEPLER-63F. Mine ore, upgrade tools, expand storage, and unlock deeper cave access.Idle progress - Protocol 105 keeps working between sessions. Relay cache upgrades improve offline ore recovery. New: SAC ExchangeLive commodities market - sell mined ore or trade speculative minerals through the SAC Exchange.Dynamic market events - pirate blockades, asteroid warnings, export booms, corporate sell-offs, bankruptcies, and demand surges now affect prices.SAC Oracle - buy forecasts, upgrade the prediction engine, and try to move before the market does.New: Contracts, Convoys & BlockadesSAC contracts - accept timed mining and selling objectives for extra credit rewards.Ore convoys - ship full planetary storage to the SAC Exchange for a higher payout, but watch the raid risk.Fleet Command - buy freight haulers, escort wings, and cargo insurance.SAC-X Station - upgrade the station for trade rebates, faster unloading, extra docks, and better convoy premiums.Pirate blockades - pay pi
