Dram added a comment to T116473: steam achievement Power Plant again.

Firstly, refrain from swearing or you will be banned. Secondly, an issue with steam has nothing to do with Take On Mars. I will restate that the game is still in early access at this point and that there are many issues that will eventually be fixed. We are a small team, so issues take time to solve.

Closing the issue as evidently there is no issue on our end.

Dram added a comment to T116473: steam achievement Power Plant again.

Hi, sorry but I'm not sure I completely understand the problem. Is it that the power plant achievement does not work? Or that it is set at too high a value to achieve? If the latter, then that is because it will be possible to complete in the manned section, where you generate much more power.
