Summary

Hello, Engineers! Today’s patch is another minor release, bringing some more smaller improvements as the team continues work towards the next major release. This includes a significant fix for ship dampeners so now, ships with multiple types of thrusters will no longer slowly fall in planetary gravity. Additionally, we resolved an issue players were experiencing with ships not being affected by gravity at all which meant they would fly on planets as if they were in space. Coming up in the next major update, we will have a new in-game server browser for you which has a ton of new features, search filters and performance improvements. Some notable features include the ability to connect to a server via an IP address and search for servers which are using your preferred settings and mods. The list of servers will also load much faster with the new browser. But rest assured that lots of work is still going into optimizing the game’s performance and multiplayer with a number of stress tests taking place in the last week which have allowed our programmers to analyze and track down the causes of performance drops.

Lastly, next Monday we will be streaming at 7PM CEST on the Keen Community Network[1] over on Twitch. Once again, we’ll be joined by Marek and the producer of Space Engineers, Petr Minarik, where among various topics, we will be discussing the future of the game and what the team here at KeenSWH has been up to.

Fixes

  • Fixed grids slowly falling in gravity when their dampeners were on
  • Fixed grids having wrong gravity and mass setting in some cases when they undocked from a voxel
