Post New Commodities for Colonies & Reaver Changes
As of the next patch that goes up nobody has the right to complain about how their peasant pumping is no longer effective. I added a lot of new commodities which can be sold in colonies. Just a tip for everyone, having one very effective and well supplied colony will be more profitable than pumping any amount of peasants.

The new commodities with their starting values are:

Gravity Controllers, 4500
Spacewalker Suits, 45000
Portable Lavatories, 1850
Personal Computers, 575
Cyborgs, 1975
Fembots, 2000
Furniture, 1600

Compare those prices to baobabs which have a starting value of 800. There is enormous potential for profit with these new commodities.



The blueprints to build the converters are in dungeons at varying levels of difficulty. It will be a lot of work to make them all, and they cost a lot, but they will be beneficial for everyone who gets them.


These new commodities will also be used in construction projects in the future.






Reavers in dungeons and the roaming Grim Reavers have been changed to two different spawn types now. Before they had the same items on them. The dungeon reavers are stealthier and have higher shield bank than previously.

Will DG MF Reavers have slightly longer recoil times on their weapons to offset this change, or are they simply being beefed vs Stealthers?

They're just being beefed. They are supposed to be some of the most challenging AI to encounter in dungeons and they were not. They will be now.

It will still be a challenge, these commodities take a lot of resources that need to be extracted. A cyborg take 10 metals, 5 microchips, and 1 peasant to make.

Is it also possible to change the dropping of commodities prices on collonies? Currently some drop 100 or 200 in price per tick.
