My Last SE Modding Update

Hey Everyone.

Yeah, the title sort of spoils the plot here, but I still wanted to talk to everyone about this.

As many of you know from last month, I decided to take a break (mostly) from Space Engineers. I was starting to feel burned out with modding (both new creative stuff and maintaining the existing stuff), and this was being compounded with stuff I had/have going on in real life. I gave myself some time away from the game, played some other games, relaxed, etc - all with the hope that I'd be able to come back to it feeling a bit more renewed. This was fully my intention at the time.

I did eventually jump back in and decided to start up work on the Corruption rewrite again, along with some other things. For a couple days, I was getting stuff done with it, and it looked like I might be back in the groove of things.
