We have been blown away with the reception to the last update, which gives us confidence that we should continue to focus on rounding out the "why" and "what" of Stationeers play sessions. A key foundation for our future updates is to build heavily on this. We plan to take existing work we hav... Read more

Becoming Immersed This may not come as a surprise, but Stationeers is a game about building stations. For a long time there has been a big divide amongst new players. Some jump in, want to take care of their needs, build an airlock, expand their little station to get hydroponics growing all their seeds to feed themselves, and start routing wires, pipes, and chutes around the station as they build all the machines they can. Others launch the game for the first time, and see enough food and water in their lander to keep them alive for a while. They build all their machines outside, progress through the production tree rather quickly, eat and drink in a vacuumed out cube, and run out of things to do. They fail to encounter problems that require the engineering challenges that are at the heart of what makes Stationeers so much fun.

Getting players to build rooms and then really live in them ensures that players interact with all the systems of the game, and makes them experience ... Read more

Sensor Lens Chips Meson Scanner This scanner allows you to view an AR projection of pipe and cable networks. The colors of cables and pipes will be correctly represented. This can be extremely useful when expanding bases with complex or hidden networks.



Celestial Scanner The celestial scanner allows you to view the location of all of the orbital bodies in the solar system, You can see the name and distance of each celestial body. Again, this is just for fun, however, it could help you while working with the newly added telescope.

Mining Drills Pneumatic Mining Drill This new drill uses gas power for mining, instead of batteries like others. The drill's mining speed is a function of the pressure differential meaning it will slow down as you deplete it's gas canister.

This also means that you can effectively give it an upgrade by using the smart canister to gain a much higher pressure differential.



Mining Drill Power Usage All the electric mining drills' passive power usage was significantly dropped and the power used per ore mined has been removed and replaced by active power usage. The active power usage will consume power the entire time you hold down your mouse button to mine. This has resulted in some small miner balance changes but nothing that you should really notice, just don't run around holding down your miner!

This hotfix addresses numerous atmospherics issues. There has been a wide range of atmosphere issues reported that all stemmed from the same issue. The most common, or at least the most noticeable, one was outside atmosphere contaminating rooms.

This will no longer happen but some saves may have devices with bugged atmospheres in them, this can be fixed by deconstructing the device completely and then rebuilding it.

This hotfix addresses further issues with a specific trader causing errors in multiplayer, as well as a number of other small fixes and improvements.

• Fixed food trader causing checksum error. This is a temporary fix by removing a specific problematic trade.
  
• Fixed error spam when editing prefabs if the GameManager not initialized. Have removed unused WorldGridController field on game manager which was being set when the world controller was initialized but never used.
  
• Changed Plant growthState materials to be GPU instanced.
  
• Fixed Plant planted at high altitudes would be offset inside the planter.
  
• Fixed client list not being cleared when leaving a game as a client and starting a new single player game. This would cause pause to stop working in the menu as well as make the game prepare data to send to clients unnecessarily.
  
• Fixed recipe search window layout breaking when changi...
