NEW BUILD! Beta Candidate 0.14 Patch Notes:

Wishlist now on Steam: https://store.steampowered.com/app/1891010/Expansion_Core

I finally got the game build onto Steam! Still working through the process though, so I only have a few beta keys to give out to testers. Other than that, this update has a bunch of changes! From ally control updates to big balance changes, there's a little bit of everything. Storms got a buff, the Mobile base can now hold turrets as well as heal allies when set up. Finally, I've added some more logic to ally AI so that they try to nudge other allies out of the way when stuck.

Major Features:
- Trade Pod Difficulty Scaling: I've updated the trade pods to dynamically increase their difficulty based on the total value of the items within the pod. This may be tweaked in the future, but it basically makes the game harder as you start getting more valuable items to sell.
- Mobile Base Healing Buff: The Mobile Base will now heal all nearby allies, as well as the player, when set up. The healing scales based on the Mobile Base's health regen stat. This will, hopefully, help with the energy shortage issue.
- Ally Movement Update: Allies should now try to route around each other more effectively. If they get stuck in a group, they'll try to nudge their surrounding allies. If the player attacks an ally, that ally will attempt to nudge itself out of the way as well.
- New Module, Small Turret: Added a new module for the Mobile Base that can attack at range. It requires no resources to operate, but does less damage overall compared to a standalone Turret bot. That being said, this is now my favorite module by far.

New Features:
- Storms now throw rocks 10x as much as before, but only occasionally snipe the player. This just adds a new level of chaos to the Storms.
- The Defend Location has been updated to work much better. Allies now try to form a ring around the target point and allies that need to set up (Healer, Tether and Turret) will now automatically set up once they reach their destination.
- Ally icons while in the map drone are now much smaller.
- Lowered the HUB protection range to encourage more exploration with the Mobile Base.
- Added the option to keep your inventory on death in the settings menu.
- Copy-pasting your save file should now work between machines! There was just a small issue with scanning the save folder that has been resolved.
- You can now no longer create a new world with an existing save name. Before, it just ended up loading the given save's name which broke some stuff behind the scenes.
- Updated trade pods text to show either "Access Trade Pod Controls" or "Open Trade Pod Storage" contextually to help with some confusion.
- You can now double click to craft, build, or place blueprints.
- Cut tree logs now properly scale!

Bug Fixes:
- Ally groups and defend locations should now properly save and load
- Changed mine text from "Requires Miner" to "Requires Drill Bot" for clarity
- Healers should now heal the player when in the map mode
- Fixed an issue where the Mobile Base couldn't get hit while set up
- Decreased the size of the Axe Bot
- Fixed parking for the new Axe Bot
- Made enemies try to move directly towards targets that are seen as unreachable instead of just standing there
- Added collisions to the Storm Cores
