Signal

Major Button.png 13 May 2024 Announcement

Summary

Hello, Engineers!

The new Signal update is here! “Signal” lays the foundation for a new era of Space Engineers. 2024 will be a year of exploration, battle, and survival. This update focuses on our framework for a new standard in player versus environment.

Signal adds new choices to your creative arsenal with new blocks, specifically created for this occasion. With this new set of blocks, your remote automation can act with an entirely new level of autonomy. Where the wildly popular “Automatons” update added remote mining operations, automated drones, welding assistants and so much more, “Signal” empowers these systems to communicate! Reactive updates, straight-to-chat, as well as complex systems communicating over multiple ships, stations, or any combination are now possible!

Get live chat updates from your remote satellite array, mining drone fleet, or automated defense sentinels in Signal!

Please join us in 2024 as we explore Space Engineers like never before. We can’t wait to see what you create!
