This is only for singleplayer (or if you are alone on a multiplayer session) and in the public-test-client =)

Feel free to post it here after you've created it so it gets some attention.

That's why it says back-up your savefiles.

Originally posted by Sabre: So, while I'm playing in the public test will it eventually merge in with the regular game? Is my progress in the public test simply just a test so my progress will be lost once the full update is released? They said to make a backup which I did but am I going back to my backup once the beta isn't a beta anymore? I wish they would have explained that better.

You could simply enable the Public Test and jump right back in your main savegame. Then test all stuff, etc. When the update gets pushed to the stable branch, nothing should change, except that you are now playing on stable again (you would have to manually switch branches of course).

The note to make backups is simply a safety measure and ... Read more

I suggest sticking to known mods and widely used mod managers and websites like Nexusmods and Thunderstore.

You mean the file size? ~1GB.

The Yule Tree is one of the seasonal items. Will probably be disabled soon (since it's Feb now).

A new blog post is coming this week. Stay tuned!

These small updates are pre-compiled GPU Shader downloads, caused by a Steam setting called "Shader Pre-Caching". Shaders help Vulkan and OpenGL games to load faster and improve framerate stability during gameplay.

If you wish to disable this option, just disable Shader Pre-Caching here:
