Let's not be impolite, please! Everyone is free to express their opinion on these forums, and it's even true that difficulty increased with the latest update, for the reasons Fields just listed quite accurately – so the good news is that the steep difficulty increase will (partially) even itself out eventually as custom sub building is adjusted to the new values.

We generally try to avoid changes that adversely affect lots of the player-made content out there, but at times we have to make them all the same to address issues or earlier oversights. We're also working on getting big changes like this out of the way while we... Read more

Hi everyone and sorry for the inconvenience! I've merged a few of the newer threads on low performance since the latest update to respond to everyone in one place.

Since we have seen a number of reports like this in recent days, there indeed appears to be a performance issue somewhere that we've unfortunately not managed to diagnose yet. If you would like to help us, sending us diagnostic data as screenshots could be useful – please read more in this quote from my colleague:

Hi! Sorry for the inconvenience, there was an issue in yesterday's update that affected loading times for Asian languages. We've released a fix for that just now, so you should be able to load the game normally again. Read more about the fix here (only in English, unfortunately): ... Read more

Hi! Sorry for the trouble. We've now released a small patch to take care of this issue and a couple of other problems in yesterday's update.

Hi! Sorry for the trouble. We've just released a fix to address a few issues in yesterday's update. If you are still getting this same issue after updating to the latest version, please let us know, but hopefully the patch will have taken care of this.

Hi! Sorry for the trouble, it appears there is indeed a problem with the gate NPC not spawning correctly. Please see this other thread where my colleague wrote about the same issue: https://steamcommunity.com/app/602960/discussions/1/3201491841996031757/

Originally posted by Shiro: hopefully this will be fixed asap as quickfix, and not without need to wait next large update :)

Unfortunately this is not hotfix material – fixes that are introduced in a matter of days are hugely risky as they can break the game in unexpected ways, and as such hotfixes should only contain very small and/or absolutely critical things, which this, despite being annoying, is not. However, rather than wait for the next really big update, this change might make the bugfix and quality of life improvements patch that we're currently working on and hoping to release before Christmas. More info about that closer to date!

Hi eveyone, just to write back that we don't actually ignore either these forums or our GitHub ;) there are just so many messages and, particularly here on these forums, only one of me.

Regarding the issue at hand, we've been discussing this lately and I think it's likely we will make some changes in the near future to how crew roles are assigned. However, we've not planned those changes yet in detail so I can't tell you much more than that for now.

With that, wish you a good week!

Hi and thank you all who wrote here already, very nice reading all those nice things about us! ;)

I wanted to specify the update schedule – we usually write a "coming next week!" announcement before an update, but due to other schedules, we won't be able to do that this time around. So, just to let you know: the update is actually coming as soon as next week, Honkmother willing. The key additions will be...

- an all-new character talent system
- character visual overhaul and character customisation being added also for singleplayer
- complete overhaul of alien ruins, and
- genetics, which we've yet to introduce in more detail, plus some improvements to the medical UI and other interfaces. (And a lot of fixes as always.)

Genetics and the other last bits you can read more about on update release day, and if you're interested in finding out more about the other upcoming changes, you can do that in the three latest "Sneak peek" news posts here: ... Read more
