New missions and a rebalance of the story campaign mode

Added:

• Visualization of transport construction has been added and configured: the hologram now dynamically displays construction progress.
• Added sounds for purchasing and selling resources.
• Replaced some sounds.
• Changes in the names of construction menu categories.
• Localization updated.

Changes to the storyline event chain:

• The events of “Hope-2” now occur later, allowing for an early-stage development of the production base. Several intermediate tasks were added.
• Increased part requirements for repairing the storyline truck.
• Balanced science points awarded for completing storyline quests.
• Added delays for the appearance of some side quests after researching the storyline repeater (“Lost Convoy,” “Hope Wreckage,” “Searching for Survivors”).
• The market trade tutorial quest starts earlier.
• Adjusted conditions for starting the “Strategic Planning” (Charity) contract: players now have more time to prepare for the next major task (requires completing the “Hope-2” storyline and researching the Assembler and Multi-Regolith Refinery).

Fixed:

• Fixed errors in creating points of interest at the orbital level that caused issues with expeditions and quest task completions.
• Fixed a market error where the cost of orders with drones was deducted twice.
• Prices no longer increase when selling large quantities of the same goods; instead, they decrease.
• Corrected MDR behavior when starting movement in the crater.
• Fixed an error where oxygen did not appear in reconstructed rooms.
• Addressed a rare situation where science points were incorrectly awarded after completing a geoscan.
• Fixed a situation where idle transport in the crater was unavailable for assignment in the expedition interface.
• At the beginning of the storyline, a notification about insufficient energy allowed movement to the underground level. It no longer appears until the elevator is repaired.
• Restored the sound of idle science points.
• Fixed a bug with infinite science points granted after completing one of the side quests.
• Resolved a rare situation where a dialogue in a side quest was skipped automatically with sound turned off.
• The POI “Meteorite” is now researched correctly.

Balance:

• Increased minimum and maximum resource vein generation limits by 6-14%.
• Increased inflation of science point costs in CRUST Solutions as the research map progresses.
• Added new contracts for slag delivery.
• Increased rover speed in a discharged state from 0.05 -> 0.125.
• Adjustments to the costs of various research (e.g., the Rolling Mill no longer requires Fundamental Science Points, and the Assembler is cheaper).
• Reduced hunger rate of colonists working on jobs by 7%.
• Added fuel to some ruins.
• Reduced cargo capacity of small capsules from 5400 -> 4600.
• Increased flight time for regular capsules from 40 -> 44.
• Increased required resources for repairing the quest MDR.
• Balanced resources in the POI “Aerodynamics Lab.”
• Reduced science point rewards for studying the first quest POI “Lost Convoy.”
• MDR is now less efficient; the base regolith mining speed has been reduced.
• Added one more research option to improve MDR regolith mining speed.
• Some modules now require more silicon for construction: Expedition Center, Multi-Regolith Refinery, Medium Solar Panel.
• Reduced wear rate of all mining and production modules by 5-12%.
• Large Hydroponic Farms now consume less water (24 -> 14) and produce organics 18% longer.
• Mushroom Farms now consume less water (4 -> 3) when producing organics.
• Carbon Fiber Factory production cycle increased from 12 -> 20.
• Component Factory now requires fewer titanium plates for construction.

In Progress - Update One:

• New Helium-3 scanning mechanics.
• New Helium-3 extraction mechanics.
• Helium-3 Harvester.
• Expanded MDR extraction mechanics.
• New modules: Railgun to launch probes, Thermonuclear Generator, Biogenerator, Blockchain module, AI science module (names are subject to change).
• Advanced sandbox settings from the menu.
