Hi Mechanics!

It’s that special time again when we open up and show off some of the content we’ve been working on at the Scrap Mechanic HQ. This is probably one of the most exciting devblogs we’ve done in a while, as we will be showing off our new digging system!
We’re sorry for the long wait, but the features in this devblog have been in the making for a while. We’ve also been working on a lot of story-related things that we don’t want to spoil for you, so we won't reveal everything just yet!

So let’s crack open a sunshake and dig in!

Hi Mechanics!

We have collected and answered a lot of your questions! The idea of this Q&A is to be informative and to not leave you hanging, while we are working on the next chapter.
We have focused on your most commonly asked questions, as well as a few fun ones. Let us know if you would like us to do these Q&As from time to time in the comments below.



Story & Next Chapter


Q: When is the next chapter update coming?

A: The honest answer is that we don't know yet. The next chapter is a big, ambitious update with a lot of new locations. New bots to fight. New interactive parts to craft with and new game mechanics. We don't want to commit to a release date just yet. If we did, we would be forced to cut corners later on. It would also stop us from adding new ideas that would make it better if they came up.
We will make sure that the update is really fun to play and that it offers a lot of hours of p... Read more

Hi Mechanics!
Creative mode Update 0.5.0 is finally here!

New creative mode worlds
Welcome to the new and updated creative mode! Not only did we make it look better to go hand in hand with the survival world but we also finally added water to the creative terrain. All trees can now be cut down and rocks can be drilled. Excellent for testing out ideas for your creations in Survival mode. We also gave the flat world an updated ground texture.
The new one should give a much better sense of movement and speed.

New capsules
Both bot and animal capsules have been added to creative mode.
Place them on the ground then shot or hit a capsule to release them into your world.
There is a lot of fun things you can do with these. Check the useful chat commands below.

Bot combat
Paint bots in different colors and see them attack each other.

Calling all mechanics!
New devblog, coming through! This time, we want to focus on a few things that are coming up in the not-too-distant future and also show a few new things that are in the works for the next survival chapter.





Cablebot
Watch out! There are more bots incoming in the next chapter:
While traveling deep underground, you might encounter the cablebots: they travel in big numbers and love digging holes with their cable clippers. No one knows why the cablebots are that deep in the first place yet; perhaps you will find the answer to this mystery in a future update. 
Until then, you had best prep some chests with potatoes and dust off that spudgun; you’re going to need it.




Quest are coming

Calling all Mechanics!
2020 is coming to a close and we’re here to end it on a good note with a special devblog! Here are some of the things we’ve been working on since the release of Scrap Mechanic’s Survival Mode earlier this year.

To start, we have been hard at work on the next chapter and we will be announcing its official name at a later date. But until then, here are some of the things we managed to liberate from the Scrap HQ’s secret drawing board!









Going underground
This new location includes new adventures and gameplay options that we can’t wait to share with you! This new chapter of Sur... Read more

Hi Mechanics!

We are excited to finally drop this update!
This update will lay out some of the groundwork for the upcoming new survival chapter that we are working on right now. In this update we did a ton of bug fixes and improvements. We also added a few new fun things to survival mode like the Beacon and the Logbook! We know this is not a huge update. But rest assured that a big survival update is in the works with a lot of new content and it’s shaping up to become something amazing!


Beacon
Beacon is a very useful new interactive part that will help you set navigation waypoints in the world. This will make exploration much easier. It can now be crafted in the Craftbot!



Logbook
The Logbook can now be unlocked in the crashed ship.
It will store all quests that the mechanics will find in the world. It also lets... Read more

Hi Mechanics!

This test turned in to a pretty long one as you might have noticed. We ended up doing a lot of small fixes. But also because we wanted to add a few more things for testing before we drop it.
Today the 30th of October we finally added the new Beacon interactive part that we’ve been teasing on our Twitter. The Beacon will help you set navigation waypoints in the world to make exploration much easier. It can now be crafted in the Craftbot! Some other highlights are fixes to the UI and main menu that we didn’t find time to add for the survival release. There is still more work to be done to the UI but we are getting there. We also fixed a bigger issue where the frame rate dropped for no clear reason for some players after playing longer sessions in survival. That should not happen anymore.
We hope to move... Read more
