Hi all! Satellite Command v1.2 is now available! This update addresses some long-standing issues, and aims to improve the lifespan of the game going forward.

This upgrade takes advantage of the latest performance and visual upgrades of the engine, such as a new filmic tonemapping system, as well as considerably faster load times. Improved Catalogue!

- 1.1.3 Hotfix - Release Notes - 22 December 2017
Hi all, I have just updated Satellite Command with a new hotfix, and if you restart steam you should automatically update to v1.1.3. This is the second hotfix this week and should be the last minor hotfix. There are a few UI fixes which have been in since launch (can you believe it!) and a fix for save games. New Features The Catalogue button on the Main Menu will now display an icon when there are newly unlocked items in the Catalogue. When starting a new 'Sandbox' game, all research will be unlocked. Improvements When changing an upgrade level in the Launch or Docking menu, the bar will update much faster. Hovering over items in the launch and docking menu should feel more responsive. When hovering over a Satellite for it's details, the resource bars will update much faster. Bugfixes Fixed an issue that prevented Satellites from restoring their 'Tool Use State' when loading a saved ga…

Hi all, I have just updated Satellite Command with the latest hotfix, and if you restart steam you should automatically update to v1.1.2. This is a minor hotfix which fixes a couple of long-standing UI bugs. Bugfixes Fixed an issue where the 'Powered Down' prompt tutorial would display 'Key0' and 'Key1' instead of the user-bound Hotkeys. Fixed an issue where the mission criteria text for Gold and Silver medals was displaying the incorrect times. Bronze medal criteria now displays the mission deadline. Edit: I will be fixing a few other UI issues in the upcoming days, as well as implementing a new reward feature. Stay tuned! - TJ
