Aviator

Plan 🗺️, extract, sustain. Aviator is a lunar colony you lay out yourself, tile by tile, on a hex grid that has to keep working after you walk away from it. Start 🚀 a colony, give it a grid, and build 🔨 outward from the first depot: scanners to read the ground, extractors to pull ore out of it, oxygen generators and solar arrays to keep people breathing and the lights on, batteries for the long night, habitats, refineries and silos for what you dig up, junctions and depots to tie the whole thing together.

Nothing is connected by wishful thinking. Draw tunnels between modules by hand and route 🧭 surface vehicles from a depot across the cells you choose, and watch 👀 what it costs: oxygen, power and ore per sol are always on screen, so an extractor placed where the power does not reach shows up immediately rather than three days later. Build 🔨 across several levels, snap to the grid or place freely, and erase anything that turned out to be a mistake.

Overlays turn the base into a diagram 📊 you can actually read. Switch on tunnels, oxygen, power, heat or vehicle routes and the grid recolours itself around that one question - where the oxygen actually reaches, which corner of the base is starving for power, where the heat gathers, which routes your vehicles really run.

Then run a sol and see 👀 what your plan 🗺️ does. Production charts 📊 oxygen supply against demand, tracks ore output day by day, and puts oxygen, power and storage on three dials, with a log 📝 of every sol behind it. A colony that looked balanced on paper often turns out to be running its batteries flat by morning - and the fix is a module moved two tiles, not a bigger number.

Keep several colonies side by side, each with its own grid, module count and day counter, and compare ⚖️ how differently they age. Aviator lets you explore different colony layouts, while a built-in guide walks through placing modules, drawing tunnels and reading the overlays. The settings let you set the simulation step, haptics, grid snap and the default heatmap 🔥.
