SPM v. 0.7.5 released + interim build

This forum supports the Early Access Program for the PC for Buzz Aldrin's Space Program Manager (SPM). iOS, Android and Mac releases are still in development. SPM is the ultimate game of space exploration. It is the mid 1950s and the race for dominance between the US and the Soviet Union is about to move into a new dimension: space. Take charge of the US or Soviet space agencies - your duty is be the first to the moon. Carefully manage your budget by opening programs, spending R&D funds on improving the hardware, recruiting personnel and astronauts and launching space missions in this realistic turn based strategy game.

SPM v. 0.7.5 released + interim build

Post by Nacho84 »

Hello all,

The latest update for SPM has gone live, so feel free to grab it using the autoupdate tool. Alternatively, you can download it from this link and install it manually.

The latest patch includes lots of bugfixes and a complete overhaul of the reliability and R&D systems. You can find the full changelog here. Notice that the savefiles from previous versions won't work, as the stats for all mission components have now changed considerably.

Please, let me know if you find any issues and let me know what you think about the game's difficulty now that the new reliabilities are in place.

Cheers,

IMPORTANT: A few players spotted an error in the calculation of the mission components' downgrades after a failed mission. I have fixed that and uploaded an interim build. You can fetch it here, make sure you apply its contents after you've upgraded to 0.7.5.

That's the number of opened programs/maximum program capacity, which is determined by the evolution state of the Headquarters.

Great job. When you close a program The R&D staff stay assigned if the maximum reliability has not been reached.

Give it another go. If you still have problems, let me know and I'll find a way to get you the file.

You're right, I hadn't thought of that! I'm going to add it to bug list, then.

Get it, thanks. No autoexec, you must simply copy and paste in game directory?

Yes, that's right, just grab the contents of the rar file and drop them on your installation directory. Overwrite the existing files when prompted.
