Project Asteroid Field - A new Z-level to explore and metagame in

Today, the station's Miners and Scientists go to that good old hulking asteroid, full of minerals and artifacts just waiting to be salvaged and used to build golden rooms and machinery of doom. However, few know that Nanotrasen tried to extend its mining operations in the sector

The Asteroid Field is a new Z-level (Z-7). It acts as a new full-sized map to get lost in and can potentially be used for other purposes. In lore, Nanotrasen tried to set up a Mining Substation but encountered...
adversity

Contents :

- One big asteroid around the middle. Not nearly as big as the Mining Asteroid one. Two other big asteroids hulk nearby
- A large amount of smaller rocks scattered around the area
- The middle asteroid was dug into to set up a Mining Substation, but it did not turn out well
- All the building supplies are still here, but with a broken shuttle and no teleporter, good luck doing anything with them

Right now the draft is very basic. The buildings could be fleshed out a bit more, but for now this is what it's going to look like.

Further plans : 

- Making the shuttle functional if you're willing to repair it. Where it'll go will be determined later
- Fleshing out the ruins a bit, turning it into a repairable Mining Substation instead of a husk
- More secrets. Right now the main secret is pretty obvious and while the gear you can salvage is fairly basic, it's still very average
- Possibly making all those rocks more interesting, but that'd need spriting and a lot more work
