Changelog from Steam:

An entirely new game mode with new starting conditions and new objectives.
You are joining a mega-project to construct a Stargate to the Andromeda Galaxy.
Industry, production and automation take centre stage.

- Starting ship contains 'Ruined Equipment' which can be dismantled for Scrap Metal.
- There is only one Sector in industry mode

- Stargate Project in the main menu. Shows what parts require manufacture to advance.
- Currently only Phase 1 and 2 of the Stargate have been created
- Sell your Stargate Parts at any trade station to earn money and progress the project.

- NEW EQUIPMENT:
- Fabricator => Makes components out of raw materials: Frame, Motor, Coil
- Assembler => Makes Boxed equipment out of components (Eg Battery, or Stargate parts)
- Robot Arm => Automatically lifts components and resources into and out of equipment
- Track => Automatically moves components and resources along the direction of travel
