Update 207 Sneak Peek: Environmental Hazards


Hello, Engineers!

The upcoming 1.207 update for Space Engineers brings many new gameplay elements to survival mode. One of our core goals is to change how players view their character. We want players to feel invested in their character’s well-being and continued survival.

Alongside other new systems which support this goal, we’re introducing environmental hazards that directly threaten that renewed sense of care - putting your engineer in serious danger.

One of the first hazards you’re likely to encounter on your journey comes in the form of overhauled weather events. These have been adjusted both visually and functionally. Sandstorms are no longer a temporary visual backdrop – they’re a dynamic and dangerous situation that must be planned for, endured, and overcome. Grids may become safe havens as these storms batter and choke the region.

Surviving the storm is just the beginning, more dangers lurk just over the horizon.

Community Spotlight 🧐 June 2025



Our favorite pastime is browsing through the workshop - we are in love with all the creations our players are constantly sharing. 💫

We can't wait every month to spotlight mods and blueprints that catch our eye and have the potential to make your time in Space Engineers more interesting and unique.

Here is our spotlight for the month of June! 🤩


[previewyoutube][/previewyoutube]

[h3]Uprising Weapon Pack by 50 COW[/h3]
50+ HIgh quality weapons models each with their own playstyle.

Cannons, Railguns, guided missiles, Energy weapons, and more!


[h3]ProtoHacks+ by REV4666[/h3]
This mod adds a set of unique blocks that require Prototech components to build.

It also increases the chance and quantity of Prototech components dropped from vanilla spawns.


[h3]Soteria Effort - Countermeasures Weapon Pack by TheRebornAce[/h3]
My first and very small Vanilla+ weapon mod pack.

This is purely a defensive mod pack and provides no additional destructive power advantage.


[h3]Tritanite Induction Powerplants by ZedexPlayz[/h3]
This mod introduces a set of custom-designed reactor blocks tailored for survival mode, complete with build stages and LOD support.


[h3]Self-Maintenance Unit by Silentor[/h3]
This is a high-performance automatic welding and construction system, similar to [Nanobot Build and Repair System], but with lower performance consumption.


[h3]Advanced Mining Charges by ZedexPlayz[/h3]
I developed this mod to provide a destructive means of mining for my personal survival worlds that spawns ore where the voxel is destroyed.


[h3]NiteOwl Sci-Fi Comms Pack by MTGraves[/h3]
Pack offers all blocks in both Large Grid and Small Grid as well as in functional radio blocks and décor blocks to avoid HUD icon clutter.


[h3]Energy Defense Shield by Silentor[/h3]
The shield is controlled by a control block that consumes power - only one control block can function on a single grid.

You can adjust the charge rate and shield capacity via sliders in the control terminal.


[h3]183mm Heavy Cannon by Harbinger Ace[/h3]
A heavy cannon chambering depleted-uranium HESH-ish rounds. Designed for tank-destroyers and bunker-busting, but can really be used for anything.

Yes, that includes anti-infantry.


[h3]Roleplay Missions by not4you403[/h3]
Go on missions alone or with your friends in multiplayer!


[h3]Rdav's Gen3 Guided Missile Script[/h3]
Rdavs Gen-3 Guided missile script is a next-gen high performance missile guidance script.

Integrated Radar GUI, 2.5km lock, ProNav Guidance, Performance Friendly, Easy Setup.


[h3]Detection Equipment by Aristeas[/h3]
Detection Equipment is a semi-realistic detection and EWAR mod framework for Space Engineers.


[h3]CHKN CO Dashboard by CHKNFRYRMN[/h3]
Inspired by real sports car dashboards, mostly the GR86, this script displays your speed, RPM (power usage), G-force, and much more all directly from the Dashboard LCD.


[h3]NovaSpark Conveyor[/h3]
Enhance your conveyor systems with the NovaSpark Conveyor mod!

This mod introduces specialized corner duct blocks designed to provide smooth, efficient routing for your conveyor networks.


[h3]Firstofficered's Extra Blocks Mod[/h3]
This started out as simple transitional pieces for armor, allowing more options, but since I was seeing a lot of blocks that probably should've been in the game, yet weren't, I decided to add what I could think of.


[h3]Clang Kitchen by JejeServeur[/h3]
This is a state-of-the-art integrated kitchen with a cozy and intimate interior.

Space Chiefs love it, everything at their fingertips for preparing delicious meals.


[h3]Cargo Ship Spawn Booster by Beeble[/h3]
Give space a little more hustle.

This mod increases the spawn rate of vanilla cargo ships, making space feel just a little more alive—and sometimes dangerous.

[h3]Creator Spotlight: Drach’nyen[/h3]
Blade of Drusus – Tyrant-class Cruiser, Gathering Storm – Pulsar-class Fast Attack Destroyer, Nihilakh Ascendant – Cairn-class Tombship, and more!

Update 207 Sneak Peek: Food Processor


With the optional food settings coming in the 1.207 survival update, we’ll be adding a number of blocks to the game to support that system. Last month we gave you an early look at farming, this month it’s all about food prep and ration crafting!

The Food Processor is a small factory which allows you to prepare and combine the various food items you’ve grown or gathered and craft a wide variety of ration packs.

Now - who ordered the seared Sabiroid?
