Please do raise a steam support ticket relating to download and install issues. Many users have reported issues with steam download and verification of download speeds. We upload the files to steam, and they provision them via their content delivery servers. Unfortunately, we have no control over how this occurs. We do have many users report issues with how updates occur, including in our other product, which appears to have started just over a year ago when Valve made some changes to how downloads are applied.

By raising a support ticket with Steam, they might be able to diagnose the specific issues that are causing downloads to be a problem for some users, and it can be very frustrating with some having to resort to refunding the game. It also makes us extra cautious to apply hotfixes, which is challenging because sometimes we really need to get a fix out.

In our weekly update we some changes to fix the reload issues where buildings, deployables and deep ore viens would not reload. An unfortunate side-effect of this update meant some of the progression and missions in Styx could not be completed. We also have been experiencing a bug where clients would crash when completing open world missions.

Hotfixes are disruptive due to downloads
We do apologize for doing the hotfix, as we know it is disruptive with how the downloads work and some users experience long times where Steam has to verify the entire game. Unfortunately we really do need to get this change out, as it is badly impacting some players.

Fixes
  • Fixed SANDBOX, INFLUX & WETWORK missions which where blocked from completion due to them only checking for the pre-mesh swap actors.
  • Fixed a client crash that could occurring when spawning a reward pod upon completion of an open world mission, this was caused by the particl...

Can you post some information about your game and setup? We've seen a lot of framerate improvement with the last couple of updates as a general rule, so would love to be able to pin down what specific circumstances are leading to people experiencing the opposite. Most important in order is probably hardware, map, part of the map you're experiencing the biggest issues on, hosting or not, number of players, game mode etc.

Week Fifty One's update brings an end to one of the longest-standing bugs, disappearing items on reload. With the help of our new bug-reporting tool and the community, we’ve managed to identify and remedy this bug and expect the results to be immediate after updating with the patch.

We’ve also added a range of items that previously have been ‘coming soon’ in the tech tree, along with the highly requested ‘auto-run’ feature and new meshes for an updated aesthetic on a few items.

Pastes have also received a re-work, making them a viable consumable amongst the craftables pool once again.

Finally, a new Repair Bench at Tier 3 has been added for repairing all items, regardless of their original crafting location and for repairing workshop items, when paired with a power source.

Good to hear you are keen ;-)

As our gamerunner Dean mentioned in the last patch blog, we're making good progress on it (check out the Future Content section at the bottom of our patch notes for all the details and sneak previews), but we haven't announced an arrival time for it yet.

The repair tool & building upgrade tool have been combined into a single item.

I belive in this patch we re-added the ability to hit them with melee weapons and projectiles to damage them. But you can always look at them and press y to pick back up.

There was a bug with this in the initial patch but was fixed in a hotfix. It’s a bluefish greenish box that has smoke coming out of it.
