Hello and happy new year, everyone!

We're back to business as usual and have just released a small fix patch to address four very commonly occurring issues that came up while we were away on our Christmas holidays:

v0.15.23.0

- Fixed inability to switch subs in multiplayer campaign, unless you opt to switch at the same time as you purchase the new sub.
- Fixed server not loading the previous save, but continuing from where you left off if you return to the server lobby without saving and try to continue.
- Fixed characters who've died and respawned during a round getting a penalty to their skills again on the following round.
- Attempt to fix clients sometimes gaining control of an incorrect character in the multiplayer campaign.


We hope that these fixes take care of the most pressing problems you have been facing and wish you a great beginning to the new year! More fixes and content additions coming again in the next update, ... Read more

Hello everyone!

We've just released a small patch to address the most urgent issues in yesterday's update. Here is the list of changes:

- Fixed crashing on startup on some versions of macOS.
- Fixed GameAnalytics consent prompt going outside the window on small resolutions and/or large text sizes.
- Fixed Kastrull's drone sometimes spawning inside the sub client-side in multiplayer.
- Fixed opening the settings menu resetting the game window, which caused screen capture software to stop capturing the window.
- Fixed certain mods that don't configure the "you are here" circle sprite for the status monitors causing crashes.
- Fixed abilities that give simultaneous skill gain (minor in mechanics, once upon a time in europa, apprenticeship) not giving the extra skill points.
- Fixed deconstructor not being able to put the items into containers in the output slots.

Thank you for all the comments, feedback and well-wishes since yesterday! Wi... Read more

I agree that we definitely need to do something about the reactors. One option I've been thinking of is making automated reactor control circuits less effective by making the reactor react to the set_fissionrate and set_turbineoutput signals more slowly. However, I'm not sure if that's the best way to go either: forcing the engineers to constantly man the reactor to get it to run optimally would most likely just make playing an engineer more tedious. Making the automatic control gradually drift off from the optimal values sounds like a good way to address that problem though, I think we could give that a test!

That's not the reason for jovian radiation, the jovian radiation stems from some kind of undefined alien thing deep in Europa. The first colonies of Europa were in the oceans but they didn't have to go deeper and deeper until Barotrauma "starts". If Jovian radiation were natural and had been ocurring naturally then Europa would in no way be habitable at this time.

Actually that's not entirely accurate: the Jovian Radiation in the game was intended to depict the real-world phenomenon, and explain why the colonists settled under the ice as opposed to building outposts on the surface. However, the radiation has somehow started to penetrate deeper into the ice, and Europans still haven't found an explanation on what's causing it or whether it can be stopped - but in a future update, they will. :)
