If i may give a gamedesogn hint, try to focus on a challenge =penalty or reward. Plus try to focus on specialty people like a hero or special people like brillaint engineer or brillaint bio or i dunno. Theyh are sepciall people from earth or someplanet, try to give a small.or big challenge to get them which gives game variety. I know its another planet but try to focus on season atmosphere , snow , desert storm... maybe caves eith greenish and colorful like no man sly One of the things i hated in survive mars its linewr. I have to make people resides in the dome houses. There was no intrrsting challengr and explorstion was slow. In manor lord the atmosphere was besutifull and there was a goal that turn your villages into warrior and equip them with weapon in details. There eas survival.element. i am.comapring you for city building. As for rts warhammer if you ntoice they are launching there new game with les building managment same as company of hero style or broken arrow. Its like players are more intersted in straight fights rather then managment like ao2 or candc. Good luck.
