1.09 - Update to network code
Hey there Rafters!
We just wanted to let you know that we have just now pushed a small update containing a rework of the multiplayer network code, to increase security for hosts and clients.
If you notice any bugs or desync of objects, please let us know through our support page!
Plushies and Consoles?
Hey Rafters! It has been a while since Raft left Early Access and the Final Chapter was released! It has been amazing to see all the great feedback, your reactions to the finale of the story and the incredible rafts you all have been building. Please keep them coming!
We are happy to announce that we have partnered up with Makeship to release a one time limited edition set of plushies! Up until November 15, you can get yourself a cuddly version of the Raft Shark, Maya or the Pufferfish! Or perhaps all three? You can find the storepage right here!
Consoles?
And for even more exciting news, we can finally announce that we are actively working on getting Raft onto consoles! We strive to be able to release it on as many platforms as possible and hope we can give as many players as possible the chance to build their own raft! We want the console experience to be just as good as the PC game, and make sure that everything looks and feels as good as possible, and that takes a bit of time. Therefore it is too early to give you a time of release, but we will let you know as soon as we can! Many of you have asked for it and we hope you are as excited as we are!
We will let you know as soon as we have more to share!
Until next time!

Hotfix - Raft 1.05
Hi there! We have yet another hotfix ready for you! Big thank you to all of you that have reported issues!
Memory and Crashes
We have received reports of players games crashing during loading their save files or creating a new world. We believe this could be due to high RAM memory usage. We have been able to reduce the amount of memory required quite substantially which we hope will lead to a lot fewer crashes during loading.
CHANGE LOG
Added titanium loot in temperance tunnels
Creative Mode no longer loads all the islands - should lead to quicker load times and better performance in creative mode
Rebalanced most cooking pot and juicer recipies

Issue where some players experienced random building blocks would dissapear (We believe this is fixed but weren't able to reproduce the bug ourselves)
Bug where snow mobiles were falling from the sky
Bug where some sounds stopped playing

Holding X while holding advanced biofuel refiner duplicated the item
Bug where stacking in full storage did not behave correctly

Hotfix - Raft 1.04
BUG FIXES

Hotfix - Raft 1.03
We have a couple more bug fixes and changes ready for you!
Offline Play
In version 1.0, we blocked players who were not connected to an internet connection from playing. This was due to certain technical issues that appeared when people were playing offline. However, as we have gotten feedback from the 1.0 release, we have decided to allow players to play offline if they really want to. Now, if you are offline, a warning message will appear, letting you know that some features might not work as expected, and bugs may occur, but it gives you the option to keep playing, instead of blocking you completely.
BUG FIXES
Only host got achievement for killing Rhino Shark
Grabber Cache achievement was not possible to unlock
Rhino Shark was missing for some players
Could not enter weather station on Temperance
Animals were getting grabbed by waves
Small, Medium and Big Spender achievements were broken
Some player were not able to harvest items or interact with objects (hopefully fixed)
Polar bear heads were not possible to place on trophy board
Tangaroa Historian achievement was not possible to unlock
First hyena room on Utopia had no boxes for some players
There was no frequency post it note for Varuna Point
