Dyson Sphere Program Patch Notes 0.6.17.6112
Hi engineers,
With the coming of April, we are about to enter the rhythm of medium / large scale content development, and a new round of difficulties, and an intensive development schedule. It will take a lot of time, but we will forecast the content of the upcoming patch earlier to facilitate you to plan and prepare in advance. For example - the quick copy of the sorters is on its way.
Let's see the update log today:
[Version 0.6.17.6112]
Features:
Added system framework of item drop/pick up
Optimized the Assembler GPU Rendering cost by adding the LOD1 and LOD2 to rendering detail levels
Optimized the models of logistics drones and vessels and the rendering costs on GPU
Changes:
You won't loss your items due to "Inventory is full" anymore. Instead, they will fall on the ground or float in the space!
Bugfix:
Fixed a bug that mecha walking may be interrupted when pressing S from the perspective of God in the Construction Mode
Fixed the bug that the customized celestial bodies' names may not be updated in the production statistics panel
Fixed a bug that a facility may be built in the wrong place because of the failure of the calculating of building placement distance
Fixed the bug that it may report an error when the Logistics Station is dismantled
Dyson Sphere Program Patch Notes 0.6.17.6137
Hi engineers,
CentreBrain can't dismiss the problems that occur on your way to power it, so we fixed them!
The development of new content will be a long journey full of inspiration. We are also looking forward to the future of the Dyson Sphere Program universe just as you, dear engineers.
Let's take a look at today's update:
[Version 0.6.17.6137]
Features:
Added the query (double-check box) before dismantling the Storage/Tanks/Logistic Stations. You can turn the pop-up box on/off in the Setting.
Added a function that now you can press and hold [SHIFT]+[DELETE] to delete the holding items directly.
Changes:
Power Statistics Panel UI: exchanged the colors of Discharging power and Charging power
Bugfix:
Fixed the bug that sometimes you may received an empty Accumulator after removing a fully charged Accumulator
Fixed the bug that sometimes solar sail was not generated after removing the Dyson sphere frame and Dyson shell
Fixed the bug that the heat value in the Thermal power station did not change after the heat value of fuel was changed
We have reached the start of Civilization Type III. In the future, the Dyson Sphere Program universe will become even broader because of our joint efforts.
Before we go to the update log, CentreBrain wants to send you some special tips that will affect your game progress:
·Crude oil becomes a consuming resource. The less crude oil remaining in the blowout well, the more difficult it will be to collect. The extraction efficiency can be down to 0.1/s. To keep your extraction efficiency, you can change the resource magnification setting and upgrade the mineral utilization level.
·The Cluster Seeds are different from the old version.
·You need to reopen the file to experience some of the newly added content
·Blueprint is NOT included in this update yet but on the way!
[Version 0.7.18.x]
Features:
A Brand New Milky Way View- Civilization Type III System
All the engineers are generating ONE galaxy! - Among the engineers using the same star cluster seed, the engineer's universe with the largest power generation will be displayed in the Milky Way.
Added an entrance for Milky Way view. There are two ways to enter it: Click and enter the 'Milky Way' button in the main menu, or scroll to the farthest view in the starmap.
Now you are able to browse the star cluster you selected in the Milky Way view.
Added the statistics of the Milky Way view, including the total number of Dyson spheres, the total power generation of Dyson spheres, and the total number of solar sails launched.
Added functions to the Milky Way view, included cluster data browsing, ranking of each star area in the Milky Way view.
New Assembly Line construction mode – Now you can press [TAB] to switch between 'Snap to Grid' or 'Free line' mode. In 'Free line' mode, you don't have to build the conveyor belt stick to the grid, but like this:
New Mass Construction function! Left-click and drag your mouse can build the construction in a row. The interval among the constructions can be adjusted before the drone works on them.
Now you can quickly replicate the construction along with its SORTERs! Use [Shift+left click] to copy the built building, and the position of the Sorters will be intelligently adapted to the available position.
Now you can cover and quick upgrade in the construction mode.
CPU multi-threading system and related settings are available now. The logic of Sorters, Logistic Stations, Manufacturing Building, Matrix Lab, and Electricity System are incorporated in the multi-threading system.
Added new advanced Smelters and its related new tech and recipes.
Added new technology that can increase the speed of warp. The more you upgrade the tech, the faster the warp!
Added the logic to manually control the warp speed of the mecha
Added 4 new background music themes of space, factory, and ocean
New desert planet: Dry Lack Planet
New desert planet: Scarlet Ice Lake Planet
New desert planet: Hurricane Stone Forest Planet
New ocean planet: Blossom Forest Planet
Added a new terrain generation algorithm for the Scarlet Ice Lake Planet
Added ice shader for Scarlet Ice Lake Planet
Added 9 planting model for Blossom Forest Planet
Decorate the planet with your foundation! Now you can choose a color or customize a color on the palette for the foundation.
Add a new foundation texture
Added LOD1 and LOD2 rendering detail level to the sorter optimized the Sorter's GPU consumption.
Added LOD1 rendering detail level to Storage, optimized the Storage's GPU consumption.
Now you can browse the local file of savedata in the Save/Load interface.

Adjusted and narrow the construction collision frame of the Ray Receiver.
Balance:
Increased the working power of Assembling machine Mk.II and MK.III
Increased the standby power of the Satellite Substation
Increased the working power of the EM-Rail Ejector
Increased basic life of solar sail (0.5h -> 1.5h) and maximum life after upgrade (1h -> 2.5h)

Decreased Antimatter fuel rod's energy (7.5GJ -> 7.2GJ) and consume antimatter quantity (10 -> 6)
Decreased Artificial Star power generation 75MW -> 72MW
Fine-tuning the calorific value of various fuels
Crude oil is now a consuming resource. Collecting crude oil will gradually reduce the production of blowout wells down to a minimum of 0.1/s. The rate of decline is now related to the resource magnification setting and mineral utilization level.
Increased the production of crude oil blowout wells in the beginning planet and reduced the production of crude oil blowout wells in distant planets
Bugfix:
Fixed the bug that the Warper were not be returned when the Logistics Station was dismantled
Fixed the bug that the Graviton lens was not be returned when the Ray Receiver was dismantled
Modified the miplevel algorithm of the foundation and fixed some potential seam problems in the foundation rendering.
This is the end of the update log. Thanks for reading and see you next time!
I noticed that after looking around in the staring system, the bottom part of the UI disappeared. I quit to ask in the forums, open the steam window and see they already patched it. These guys never fail to impress.
There's an old Chinese going says 'The weather in June changes rapidly like Children's mood'. Don't forget to see the weather forecast and take care of health!
[Version 0.7.18.7063]

Third video with DSP, this time using the Synthetic God track from the Stellaris OST. Considering that the game is about an AI strip-mining whole star systems to build megastructures, I though it was fitting.
Just re-doing the central mess-o-rings, wasn't really happy how obvious the different layers were. The new one is way more spread out and neighbouring layers don't share the same axis. This is another timelapse video, starts out normal speed, ramps up to...I don't remember, maybe 12x or thereabouts, then slows down again at the end. Same as the first timelapse.
Only a few days until the promised Blueprint System Day Wowww! We didn't forget! Here we bring some fixes and adjustments today.
[Version 0.7.18.7275]
Pick Up:
！Since the Splitter logic has been optimized in this patch, there will be slight changes in the logistics logic built with the Splitter.
！Since the stacking number is adjusted in this patch, the production line had reached its upper limit of manufacturing products in the previous patch may restart to the product.
[Version 0.7.18.7275]
Feature：
Added real-time data display on Fractionator panel
Change:
Optimized the input and output logic of Splitter, Storage Tank, and Logistic Station to solve the problem that the conveyor belt was not easy to work in full load. Conveyor belts are now easier to fulfilled by the cargo (work at full capacity).
Optimized the output priority and diverter logic of Splitter, so that the conveyor belt with the correct ratio can be fully transported and run with a full load
Optimized the port determination. Now you can choose the port easier when connecting a building with Conveyor Belt, especially for multi-port buildings such as Logistics Station, and adjusted the port configuration of the port buildings
Optimized the logic of the Fractionator, so that when the Conveyor Belt MK.III enters with hydrogen fully loaded, the fractionation speed can be exactly 30 times/s
Optimized the CPU multi-thread logic operation of Sorter, so that the CPU time cost of Sorter will be reduced by 30%~40%
Optimized some special construct methods of Conveyor Belt under freeline mode
Balance:
Increased the stack number of some items, including some materials, accessories, vessels, conveyor belts, sorters, and some production buildings
The speed at which the Ray Receiver station consumes the graviton Lens decreased from 0.25/min to 0.10/min
BugFix:
Fixed the bug that sometimes the minimap in the lower left corner does not refresh
Fixed the bug that the celestial bodies in the same distance may display a different 'Reaching in...' time.
Fixed the bug that the cargo icon from Plane Smelter may not be displayed correctly on conveyor belts
Oh.. yes I have another good news for you: You won't have to restart a new game for the coming Blueprint Patch !
Thank you for your continuing support! You can send your feedback in Discord and Google Form! See you next time!

Dyson Sphere Program Patch Notes [Version 0.8.19.7662]
Quote:
Dear engineers,
\WE REACHED BLUEPRINT SYSTEM YAAAY!!!/
This is the first time for Dyson Sphere Program to have a BluePrint system. We are well aware that the system is still in an immature stage, and our team will be ready to fight the bugs in the few days after the BluePrint patch. If you find a bug, please don't hesitate to send your feedback in Discord or Google Form!, we will listen carefully and continue to improve the BluePrint system!
At the same time, when you use the Blueprint function the first times, please do NOT forget to save and back up the savedata, just in case.
REMINDER: You don't have to restart the game for the BluePrint system. Blueprint system can directly apply to the existing savedata.
Now you can create (copy) a new Blueprint. You can select the range of Blueprint by clicking or box selection. The ready-to-build facilities can also be included in the Blueprint system.
Now you can apply (paste) the Blueprint on the planet. You can paste the Blueprint in a chain if you hold and drag the mouse.
Blueprint construction can realize the quick mass upgrade and downgrade of existing buildings, as well as direct coverage of building recipes and settings.
Added the Blueprint facility statistical function. You can right-click and delete the single building you don't want in the Blueprint, or delete a certain kind of facility in the Blueprint statistical panel.
Added Blueprint saving and Blueprint code export functions.
Added the custom information function of Blueprints. Now you can customize the name, description of Blueprint.
CentreBrain upgraded Icarus! Icarus can manually mine the Gas giants now. Don't be caught by Gas giant and become space junk again, Icarus!
Added 12 rock models and textures for Arid Desert.
Added the model and texture of the Plane Smelter.
Added LOD1 and LOD2 of the Plane Smelter, and optimized its GPU cost.
Add a scene for the main title. From now on, the 2 main title scenes will be randomly displayed.
Changes:
Modified the key detection logic to resolve key conflicts such as [C] and [Ctrl]+[C].
In the Surface Formation Mode, the color prompt mask on the decorated foundation is removed, and the color prompt mask on the undecorated foundation is retained.
Balance:
Increase the number of Drones obtained through the "Communication Control" technology (This function can only be applied in a new game. The old savedata can still make up the number of Drones by upgrading the technology).
Adjusted the flight speed of construction drones improved by the "drone engine" technology(This function can only be applied in a new game. The old savedata can still make up the speed of Drones by upgrading the technology).
Increased the power generation of Mini Fusion Power Station (9MW ->15MW).
Bugfix:
Fixed a bug that occurred after optimizing the sorter in the [7275] version: the cargo at the end of the conveyor belt or at the node of the closed conveyor belt interface cannot be picked.
Fixed the range detection problem when the foundation buries/restores veins.
Fixed a bug that the Drone couldn't work properly because its speed was too fast after the technology upgrade.
Fixed a bug that key setting conflicts will not be detected when restoring the default keys.
Fixed a bug that the combination key may be invalid when setting the combination key in the key setting.
Fixed a bug where there are multiple "keys not set" that will be detected as key conflicts.
They are just regular gameplay with hidden HUD. Pressing the hide button once removes the HUD, pressing it again removes the player model, pressing it one more time reverts to normal.
Signature/Avatar nuking: none (can be changed in your profile)
