Patch Update 31.1

Howdy Folks!

Thanks for all the great feedback so far on the Energized update. With that update out the door, I’ll be focusing on some smaller updates. These updates will tweak, change and fix various aspects of the game.

The Energized update was originally intended to include the new mission system and the first chapter of story missions. The mission system and the story missions are still being worked on and will be coming in a future update.

UI Tweaks

The section buttons and global inventory have undergone some minor changes to make things a bit more compact. Further tweaks to global inventory are planned in future updates.

This update also contains some additional tweaks and a bunch of fixes. Check out the release notes below for the full list.
