Add more tools for the player to build with

  • More jobs to have colonists place, remove, upgrade. Building block-by-block is tedious past the early-game.
  • Allow players to start with dirt/leaves in early game, and then ask their colonists to upgrade it to wood / stone when those materials are plentiful later-on.

Add a "Blueprint system"

  • Blueprint system allowing players to quickly design elaborate builds in a 3D editor overhead view with more tools
  • Could probably get modders to build these for you if you use simple enough data structures to store the build info
  • Players can place blueprints and have colonists build them in-game, so they don't have to place block-by-block.
  • Creates opportunity for additional community interaction, workshop content, etc.

all of these are planned, roughly speaking 😄
