Space Haven Dev Tracker

Greetings, Spacefarer!
Our work on Space Haven has continued, and we are ready to show you some of the stuff we have in store for the next upcoming Update to Space Haven! With this upcoming update we get to fulfill a few of both ours and the player wishes, together with some other additions and improvements to the game.

Overall, the upcoming update will add to both ship-to-ship combat in form of new threats and also new enemies to encounter within derelict ships. Let's take a look!

Fighters - A New Craft Requiring Pilots

We have fixed some bugs and put together a new patch for the Alpha 16 Update. The newest version is now 0.16.0 Build 17.

Alpha 0.16.0 Build 17

• Fixed a bug related to Missions - Taking a crew member as refugee failed the mission.
  
• Fixed the Comfort values of the Ore Processor - Discomfort of the Ore Processor was going through walls too much. (Intention is still to have it at a small leakage, due to vibrations, noise and smell. Walls block discomfort to a good degree, but not completely. Walls + some space is needed.)

Space Haven receives a new Major Update, featuring a big bag of new goodies for you to experience. New features extend on content, building, crew management and deepens some of the existing systems in the game. Let's have a look!

A Note On Continuing A Saved Game From Alpha 15 (These instructions are only for those who want to continue a saved game from Alpha 15, or stay on Alpha 15. If you are happy with updating the game and starting a new game there is nothing you have to do, except let Steam update the game.)

We recommend starting a new game to enjoy the new update, but it is possible to continue a saved game from the previous version, Alpha 15. However, there are some issues that will appear. Follow the steps below to make a Alpha 15 saved game functional in Alpha 16.

Space Haven Alpha 16 is now available to play in the experimental branch. As a reminder, the update process is as follows:

1. A new Update is first available in the Experimental Branch.
   
2. Players, who do not mind playing a more unstable version, will first want to test the new update.
   
3. Once the experimental game build looks solid and stable enough we will push it out officially to all players!

NOTE! Joining experimental is completely optional, and you should only do it if you are willing to risk that some new bugs are introduced, which could affect your game play and potentially break your save.

Please do not join the experimental branch if you don't want to risk breaking your save or have the game break on you in midst of play! If you want to play a mor... Read more

Missions System
A mock-up of a possible missions screen. Work-in-progress. (Subject to Change)

We've started developing a missions system, which would support both smaller missions within a sector and missions which require traversing to a specific location.

With the missions system we want to bring more life to the galaxy, by creating more events and giving more life to the factions with them asking for help regar... Read more

Space Haven receives a massive Update in celebration of the second Anniversary in Early Access! We've worked hard on this update and it has to be the biggest and most feature rich yet. Read on to see all the new goodies implemented in the game. =)

Alpha 15 will make crew members feel less robotic and more human. At the same time, the elements affecting the mood of the crew members will guide the player to build their ships in certain ways and allow for small goals to strive for.

The joy of building a great and comfortable ship to live on will be amplified by seeing crew members enjoying their life on the ship. We have also worked on ad... Read more
