Below and Beyond

Underground

A new area to explore right beneath your colony. Uncovering what the Martian Underground has been hiding from us, perhaps we can even find something rivaling our wonders.
Expand your colony into the Underground, providing shelter against the hazards from the surface and bringing you closer to richer deposits.
Be careful, as there may be underground marsquakes that can lead to dangerous cave-ins.



Asteroids

Venture to asteroids as they fly past Mars, giving you a limited window to visit them.
Set up temporary mining outposts to extract as many rewards as you can from each asteroid.
Bring back Exotic Minerals, a new resource exclusive to asteroids, to improve your colony on the Martian surface and its underground.
Some asteroids may not be as they appear and have a mystery to solve while you are on them.



Recon & Expansion tech

Unlock multiple specialized buildings, rockets, and upgrades in the underground and on asteroids.
Gain benefits and upgrades for your entire colony.

Known issues

Asteroids:

Drones that are “busy” with transporting resources do not get added to the cargo of a Lander rocket when the asteroid moves out of range. This can occasionally cause a crash
After salvaging an asteroid lander, its contents are dumped on the landing pad. Any drones and RCs part of the cargo can not be used
Pin menu does not show incoming Asteroid Landers from Asteroids
There is no warning about an unloaded cargo when launching a rocket back to Earth
Drones occasionally try to get to the unreachable area on Asteroids in order to gather resources
The camera is out of the map if the player clicks on the Astronomer's pin while s/he is in orbit (Dying Wish mystery)



Underground:

Even after clearing debris, the area is uneven and unbuildable
Some cave-ins are unreachable and therefore cannot be cleared which prevents further exploration.
Shuttles can fly ‘too high’ vertically in the Underground.



Platform specific:

MAC: Many UI images don't show up in the Mac build
Black squares are shown instead of B&B content icons on Epic build (Mac)
