Been waiting for this update and excited as can be for it. Looks like the multi action to drive to Astrape seems to be broken now? Can't do the observe now and have done it before.
Doing a complete reset of the game, so that I avoid savegame related issues. Some things noticed immediately:
1) If a feature isn't implemented yet, just leave that blank in the PDA or just have the PDA become available once you unlock the Map.
2) The map has a single dotted line to nowhere, when you start out. Only once you reach Laurion, does it update and show Laurion. Doesn't show whereabout the Rover is though.
3) When you reach Laurion, the first time, it asks you to move the generator into the base. But the first time you get there, you don't know of the generator. I'm hesistant to touch the button, until I find the generator though.
4) A lot of the old "blue highlighted" actions from previous version is gone, so now I don't know what is a permanent action or not.
5) You can take non-essential couplers, without lifting the lockdown first. Several are behind doors, that must be accessed after the lockdown is lifted, normally.
-> After a few loops, installing the generator and fueling it, I went back to the rover and I can "Move Generator Into Laurion" without a generator in my rover and it has no extra completion time on it. Didn't touch it though.
-> Sure wish I could repair the food replicator at Laurion with the taken power coupler from Talos.
-> I tried a loop with installing the generator at Talos. I'm now at Laurion and have the above "Move Generator Into Laurion" available, with time speed up, even though its fused into my Rover.
I had just remember this game and thought "it's been a couple months since I played last, I wonder if there's been an update?" Lo and behold, just ten hours ago there was! Very excited to do another full playthough :>
when I woke up for the fourth loop, it gives me a log about Santorini and Astrape, which I think is where I was before resetting for this update, but this time I haven’t even made it into Laurion yet.
edit for clarity: I saw there was a brand new update (0.4.0) and hard reset. The fourth time I woke up, I got the “there’s probably more for you to achieve at Santorini, but maybe Astrape is the way to achieve it” message, which might be where I was before the hard reset, but after the hard reset I haven’t even heard of Santorini yet.
In v0.4.0, when charging the power block in Santorini, the text suggests that this is "Super Fast Charging", but it's actually 5x slower instead of 5x faster. This means that the fastest charging method is actually to charge it in your rover while the rover is charging from Santorini, but that causes "finished recharging" message spam that blocks waiting.
It would technically be faster to recharge it from the rover/aircraft at astrape since you don't have to travel to santorini and and back but yeah charging directly from santorini shouldn't take more time than from the rover

Seems like I have the generator on the rover from the start, without needing to "Load Generator On Rover".
Seems like "Move Generator Into Laurion" creates a generator from nothing, but parking the rover in Laurion doesn't (is handled correctly).
Oh that must be what happens I thought it was just part of the new update
