Pirates Have Breached The Airlock!


Small details can make a big impact, bringing your creations to life just as much as the overall design. That’s why we’re introducing the Set Light Color action! This new feature lets you change light colors dynamically using toolbar actions. No more need for multiple lights in airlocks to indicate pressurisation!
But why stop there? In this upcoming update, you'll also be able to use Set Thruster Override, Wheel Suspension Propulsion to name a few.

Community Spotlight 🧐 February 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 February! 🤩



[h3]Thermal Dynamics by Gauge[/h3]
This was a project i have been working on for 2 years. Fully simulated heat transfer with environmental interactions.

I recommend creating a fresh world and adding grids to it. I DO NOT recommend you add it to a world you care about. At least not until you know how it works.


[h3]APOCRYPHA - Abyssal Systems by STRATDEV[/h3]
Introducing APOCRYPHA - Abyssal Systems, a moderately sized yet ever-expanding collection of voidborne weaponry aimed at providing unique ordnance to split the Void in two.

Inspired by the famed EVE Online [as most of my work is], this mod aims to soon encompass many of the unique capabilities and weaponry that EVE itself is so famous for.


[h3]Rescue of Echo Company - Sandbox Story Scenario[/h3]
Sent by the Ronin Empire, your mission is simple: rescue Echo Company, a missing military science team whose fate has become a chilling enigma.

As the team sent to make a rescue attempt, you've been given a basic frigate with little defense, a drop ship to get down to planets, and a rover for some basic travel.


[h3]Udarvis System - Real Solar Systems Proxy Pack by sam[/h3]
Welcome to the Real Solar Systems Proxy World!

All Planets are exported in 4096x2048.


[h3]MuraCore System by Soviet Bunny[/h3]
Uncharted Sector 4361B - MuraCore System exist a large black hole that has devoured all the planets and stars in its cluster but for some anomalous reason decided to keep one star anchored.

Around that lone survivor exist several planets, some earth-like and others completely alien.


[h3]ABYSSAL - Sublight Systems by Opium Hierophant[/h3]
Introducing ABYSSAL - Sublight Systems, a small but expanding collection of thrusters aimed at providing an attractive yet accessible manner of conventional propulsion.


[h3]Consolidation Propulsions by Foltast[/h3]
The new major update for Consolidation Propulsions is out!

Meet the new additions to Stribog series and completely new set of hybrid thrusters - Aeolus!


[h3]Ares at War BETA by CaptainArthur[/h3]
This is the latest version of Ares at War.

Please report bugs or feedback. That is the point of this Beta. Thanks!


[h3]STL Shop by Stalkron[/h3]

[h3]IBT Plane Fuel Tank & Conveyors by ibterrer [UA][/h3]
Adds 4 hydrogen tanks with a capacity of 300,000 liters and a semi-block tank of 25,000 liters, as well as small conveyors with a diameter of 25 cm.


[h3]KWP Armors and Structures by Khjin[/h3]
This mod pack will contain my current and future armor, structure, and occasional niche block updates related to structural building.


[h3]Low-Tech Space Traffic by AnUnscrupulousFerret[/h3]
Low-Tech Space Traffic adds a small variety of hydrogen-powered ships to supplement vanilla cargo ship traffic.

The "Space Denizens" civilian faction is included for generic versions of trade ships and other unusual spacecraft. Some ships are owned by this faction, and some belong to default economy factions.


[h3]Cado's Space Elevator[/h3]
Automated elevator capable of bringing into orbit ships of mass up to around 3 000 000 kg.

Wheels only, includes pillar constructor sitting at the top.


[h3]Self Building Wheel Powered Space Elevator by Mattzuton[/h3]
Space elevator base and Space Elevator (wheel powered), Self Building Mechanism

Once finished, a projector will project the space station, which you will have to weld yourself.


[h3]Handcrank Electrical Power Generator by Luca[/h3]
Move or rotate the lever by hand to generate power

Connect things to the grid to recharge them!
