🛠️PATCH 1.0.10 (12/9/2022)
We have been tackling larger issues that are taking more time, and some bugs are also more difficult to recreate, as they are more edge case issues. We are planning a larger update with a lot of new accessibility features soon, but we need to make sure that all new UI options are translated into all languages. Still, in the meantime, here are some fixes and updates for this current patch:
Changes:
🐞-Glasshouse debris Mission now should complete correctly
🐞-Glasshouse exploit fixed
🌱-New digging animation and sound
⚖️-Re-phrase some missions for clarity
⚖️-Localization update
Working on:
-Accessibility options in the settings panel
-Key remapping
-Controller support
🛠️HOTFIX 1.0.9.2 (12/3/2022)
We realized that some changes from the last patch were not fully implemented due to issues with UI dropdown menu. We have corrected this and now 21:9 resolutions should be available.
Changes:
🐞-Support for different screen resolutions such as 21:9 (revised)
⚖️-Antena is now available on Shop tier 3
Working on:
-Bug reports of items disappearing
-Accessibility options in the settings panel
-Key remapping
-Controller support
🛠️PATCH 1.0.9
We continue fixing and addressing issues that we are picking up from your feedback. We are facing some larger items such as key remapping, that might take us a bit more to have done in good form.
In the meantime, here are the current patch notes:
🌱-Support for different screen resolutions such as 21:9
🌱- Added hover tips for machine panel resources
🌱- Added notification if blueprint is placed without enough resources to finish
🐞-Nav-mesh recalculated for more precision - so that NPCs are able to reach higher areas without problems. (The navmesh updates dynamically, so you might need to remove an object and re-locate the object to see the update, we are looking at how to update all already saved navmeshes)
🐞-Revised broken blueprints that were missing dependencies
Working on:
-Accessibility options in the settings panel
-Key remapping
PATCH 1.0.8
We are tackling some larger issues regarding our saving system and the AI system that drives NPC behavior. We have realized that there are many edge cases that we had not accounted for, so we expect to roll out several fixes in the coming weeks. If you encounter a bug, please help us by reporting it and sharing your save file or instructions of how to recreate it.
Here are the notes on this patch:
-New Tooltip that shows what machine crafts an item (Community suggestion)

PATCH 1.0.7
We continue our journey by doing extensive reviews of the game and revisions of your feedback. We want to be careful not to introduce new bugs, so we will have to test new updates more before releasing them, especially for larger fixes. We still think we can keep up a weekly cadence of patches hoping to address all major issues in the next couple of patches.
