Hi Pioneers!

Hello again everyone, Today we have a patch with some fixes we wanted to get in before the weekend that will hopefully make the 1.1 experience more enjoyable for some Pioneers

Hi Pioneers!

Today it’s the release of our first content update since leaving early access and we would like to introduce you all to our newest features with our 1.1 update!

This update is available right now on the Experimental version of the game, so before trying it out it’s always good to BACKUP YOUR SAVES

This is how you can access the Experimental version:

• Steam: Right clicking the game > Properties > Betas > Beta Participation > Experimental

• Epic: Go to your library and download the Experimental version

Why Experimental?

Since the 1.0 release, we want to continue delivering a stable experience on the default version of the game

Using experimental allows us to polish everything up some more before releasing it to everyone and potentially including some side effects which might affect the current experience

Also, as usual this update is quite big in terms of changes as we’ve been working alongside with Fishlabs (https://fishlabs.de) for a few years now

Hi Pioneers!

We’ve got another hotfix for the Steam Release going live now on all versions of the game. This one addresses a few crashes some of you are experiencing when trying to play the game, as well as some login issues when starting the game.

We are also adding two start-up arguments that can be set as a launch option manually on Epic or Steam. One of them disables all multiplayer related connections, so no connections between accounts and EOS are attempted while playing singleplayer. The other start-up argument blocks Steam from activating while playing on the Epic Games Store, which allows players that own the game on both platforms to play using EGS only if their accounts are not linked and to run both versions of the game at the same time.

In Steam, you can set launch options by right-clicking on the game in your library and set it under Properties > General > Set Launch Options

In Epic Games Launcher, you can set this under Settings > Manage Games > Additional Command L...

Hi Pioneers!

This is a hotfix for a particular crash on start-up that some of you are experiencing. It seems like a conflict with in-game overlays (such as the Epic Games Store and Steam overlays) can cause this in some cases. The patch should fix that issue for the moment by disabling the EGS overlay for Steam users, while we look at finding a good long-term solution.

To make the current solution take effect immediately, you will have to restart Steam.

Additionally, this patch should also fix the issue that Epic players cannot connect to Steam players via the Session ID.

We’re glad to see so many new people enjoying the game today and are doing our best that those of you who are still having issues can do so too as soon as possible. <3

BUG FIXES

• Temporary fix for a crash on start-up related to in-game launcher overlay conflicts
• Players on the Epic Game Store should now be able to join Steam players via Session ID

Hi Pioneers!

This is just a small patch before the Steam release. With this version you’ll be able to play Cross-Play with your Steam friends, as soon as the game is released there.

Hope you all will have a blast. We are very excited for later! <3

UI

• Spaced out NAT and version information in the Main Menu over two lines

BUG FIXES

• Fixed some session connection issues
• Multiplayer information in the Manage Session UI now has the same styling as in other multiplayer related menus

Hi Pioneers!

Hi Pioneers!

We are pushing a patch, mainly to address the current issue that Extractors stop functioning in multiplayer. That should be resolved now. There are several other bug fixes and smaller UI tweaks included, that you can check out in the patch notes below.

We also updated the building clearance of the Empty Train Platform, so other buildables can be built in the empty space above it, and we updated all translation files again and included Hebrew translations and font support.

Hope you all have a good time with this patch and can enjoy multiplayer again <3

anyone knows what was updated since the previous experimental version on the exp branch ?

Good point, this should be what's new since the latest Experimental Patch:

• Fix for camera position getting stuck on respawn
• New icons for Chainsaw, Object Scanner, standard Conveyor Pole, Cables, Concrete, Leaves, Packaged Water

• Added an animation for newly unlocked inventory slots

Hi Pioneers!

Today all changes that have been on Experimental (plus a few additional bug fixes) are making their way on to the Early Access version! This includes a whole lot of bug fixes and some additions to the game that I will be going over in short, but make sure to check out the patch notes below where we have summarized all of it.

The biggest changes we are introducing is a substantial increase to the fluid transport capacity of Trains and an increase to the fluid storage capacity of Buffers, a new overflow setting for Smart & Programmable Splitters, and the ability to map out a total of 10 different Hotbars and switch between them quickly.

On top of those changes the Train Platforms, standard Conveyor Poles, Chainsaw, and Object Scanner got an update to their looks. A lot of smaller feedback improvements have been implemented in the UI as well and this version includes the new Epic Online Services implementation, which you largely shouldn’t notice. It does give you all the ...

Hi Pioneers!

We are doing another patch before the weekend. It includes a bunch of smaller bug fixes, and a few UI tweaks regarding the autosave notifications, multiplayer joining and information on your friend lists. Check out all the details below!

The Train Platforms also got some small details added to them. To clarify, the platform is indeed larger than before. When reworking them, we made sure to make them as modular as possible to enable more creative setups in the future. Part of that was to make them exactly four foundations wide so they fit in snugly with foundations.

Generally, we try not to adjust the size of buildings during reworks, but we will make exceptions when it clearly improves their use and fits their purpose in the game.

Hope you all have a lovely weekend <3

FACTORY

• Added a few more details to Train Platform meshes

UI

• Added an option to disable autosave notifications
• Added a setting to show autosave notifications for client players, host or both

Hi Pioneers!

Another patch is up on Experimental. It includes some bug fixes, better feedback in the Smart/Programmable Splitter menus, and the new Train Platforms. Try them out and let us know what you think!

We’ve introduced a performance hit in an earlier patch, coming from some code we were running to trace an issue in the game. The issue is gone now, and so is the code that affected the performance, so your factories should run a bit smoother again.

For all the details, check the notes below.

Hope you all are doing well and are having fun with the game <3

FACTORY

• Added new meshes for all Train Platforms

OPTIMISATION

• Removed some debug logging that tanked the performance

UI

• Removed visible session IDs in the Join Menu, so only the host can share the session ID
• Added the option to hide the session ID in the Session Management settings
• Added tooltips for Smart/Programmable Splitter settings to clarify their purposes

Hi Pioneers!

In today’s little patch we are fixing a bunch of EOS related crashes, the issue of starting offline sessions when loading save games, and some other bugs you can read about in the notes below.

There have also been some tweaks to the Onboarding to make it clearer and better showcase early game features, such as the Codex, and we adjusted the Flying Crabs a bit to make them easier to deal with.

Let us know what you think about the changes and if any of the issues persist or new ones pop up!

Cheers <3

BALANCING

• Moved one of the Rocky Desert new game spawning positions to a better location

CREATURES

I think a lot of people got angry because of all the comments the CM did, like "we didn't want to listen to you guys, we sold five copies xoxo uwu"

9 copies*

Swaqqmasta

Excited to see what's in store for S.A.M. and the other collectibles, as well as Tier 8

Some additions mentioned in this:

New vehicle(s) and buildings in Tier 8

3rd person toggle is a goal but causes issues

Fix for visibility at night in works

Lights wanted but must make them in a way that doesn't tank performance.

S.A.M. ore will likely be late game resource tied to story and solving logistic issues in late stage factories.

Story !

Expansion on exploration

Potentially multiple body slots

Official Mod Support

Dedicated servers in the works

Potential farming capabilities

Some talks about changes to benefit replayability

Full version release date possibly between 2021-2022 (very rough estimate)

Additional notes:

In general, there are problems that have potential solutions (flying vehicles) but the devs want to implement a better solution to the root gameplay problems that may not be what the community suggested.

Also, as with many things, there are tons of small features they would love to add, but there is simply a priority order.

Also, thanks for the update and huge Q&A! It's always nice to know what the studio is planning and how things are progressing.

thank you so much for this summary :)
