- Fixing Race Condition caused due to new dropship player initialization which was causing players to die before landing on a prospect
- Added timeout check for retrieving data from the server. If migration fails a backup option is now shown to allow you to play without old data. Migration can be attempted later, however this will lose more recent data.

***New Players can now enter the game after attempting a migration, existing players who haven't migrated will have the option to skip migration. People who have already migrated will be unaffected.***

Is this online characters only, or will offline ones be impacted as well?

Its something we really want to add, along with a balance of all the energy / power systems. We are planning to do something early next year after data decentralization.

when no one is on at that moment?
lotta storms happen and on styx stone gets damaged
would we have to build all the way to concrete before getting off every time?
There is in option in the config of the server as to how long the game runs when no-one is connected. I believe we default it to 3 minutes, then the server switches to lobby mode, and the next time you connect you will have to load up the session. While the server is in lobby mode the game isn't running so no events or anything will be happenning.

When missions finish players will be instantly rewarded with the Ren / Exotics, no need to go back up in the dropship to collect the rewards... Read more

Dedicated servers are in active development, over on discord we have some channels set up with how to access the tool, the wiki on how to host and steam branch required for you to connect.

We are looking at adjusting this soon, so that a mission-recipe unlock on one character unlocks for all.

We are planning to expand the Open World Quests with larger objectives, they will come and take a little time.

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...

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.

Was this the geysers horde mode? And was this on a prospect or outpost?

Prospects only provide exotics 3x then it should provide enzymes. Outposts should only ever provide enzymes.

Also if you let the Vapour Condenser take too much damage it is destroyed and you need to start again. If you all log out mid wave you need to start again from the start.

This odd indeed, the slots should prevent the items from ever doing that. Please let me know if you figure out how it occurred.
