Another update:
I've finished off and debugged the Facility.txt file as well as set up some basic empire files for each race. Still need to make some combat images, update a few of the important AI files, and do some play-testing to fix any glaring problems so Saturday afternoon still looks good!
I'm not thrilled with the quality of the facilities thus far, but oh well, I can fix them up over time.
You can view the fully updated technology section that will represent the first release at the Space Food Empires website.
