Version 1.0.0-beta.3 for Paradox Base Chiron, named "Relaxed Cricket", has been released!

Release Announcement

This version includes the first part of our Medical Update, featuring the radiation system. The radiation system is still a work in progress, the implementation of hazard protection suits and radiation poisoning cure is still pending.

The amount of radiation players receive will change depending on how close to the reactor they are, and whether or not they are wearing a protection suit. Radiation levels will also increase based on the current stability level of the reactor. As the core temperature and power setting increases, the radiation levels will increase as well.

Reactor operators can now commit operation errors during the reactor ignition sequence, which may result in a spike in radiation levels, poisoning the entire facility with radiation.

Version 1.0.0-beta.0 for Paradox Base Chiron, named "Fervent Buffalo", has been released!

Release Announcement

This version is the first release of the Beta testing program. Thank you to all the 243 users who participated in the Alpha testing program and helped us make Paradox Base Chiron better. Make sure to join the game to claim a new and shiny Beta Tester badge!

You can find some information regarding notable changes below. Click here to scroll down to the full Release Notes.

Mining System

Test Subjects, grab your pickaxes and start mining for credits! Along with the mining system, Test Subjects can now buy tools and weapons from the kitchen vendor using credits. Credits will also be used to start the Vault Heist, an in-progress feature planned to be implemented in one of the future Beta channel releases.

Outside

The addition of the Outside area to the game. Used by hostile forces, by Test Subjects to escape and by Corporation Personnel in case of an evacuation.

Medical injections

Injections for the Medical Department to use on players, giving them temporary positive or negative effects.
