Hello everyone!

Today we’re launching the Rocketry Renovation Update for Spaced Out!

This update mostly focuses on improving the rocketry experience, with some exciting new renovations you can add to your spacecraft. The full patch notes are listed below, but here are a few of the most notable changes:

Liquids and gasses can now be piped directly in-to and out-of Spacefarer Module interiors. This also means that fluids can be vented into space if a pipe is active while the rocket is in flight. This feature is available in all newly built Spacefarer Modules.

The new Wall Toilet building allows Duplicants to flush their waste directly into the world behind the toilet seat. No outbound plumbing required! This building must be built against a wall and requires clear space (or the vacuum of space) behind the wall to vent to.

The Ladder Bed is a tileable sleeping arrangement with a low quality ladder attached to the front. Several beds can be stacked together to create a vertical dormitory in tight spaces. Duplicants don’t appreciate others using the ladder while they’re trying to sleep though.

Stranded rockets can now be evacuated using the “ABANDON SHIP” sequence. This will cause the rocket to explode. Any Duplicants on board will be launched towards the nearest discovered asteroid in a high speed Escape Pod. Some of the resources aboard will follow in the form of Spacecraft Debris.


And of course, there's always a number of bug fixes and polish improvements. Please let us know in the bug forums if you see anything unexpected, and as always, thank you for your feedback!

Hi everyone,

Today’s hotfix has a few bug fixes we wanted to get out, as well as an optimization we hope will address a specific performance issue some users have been experiencing since the Breath of Fresh Air update.

We’re continuing to explore performance improvement opportunities but wanted to get this one out sooner than later to get the needle moving in the right direction.

[h2]Spaced Out! Fixes[/h2]

Hi there, friends!

Today we present The Solar Swamped Update for Spaced Out! This update contains two new worldgen features. The first is a third Classic Cluster option: a large-sized Swamp Start so you can now play with the new biomes and critters on a larger world. The second is variable sunlight intensity per world. This introduces a progression to the effectiveness of solar panels (and sunburn risk) as you expand across the starmap.

There's TWO new songs in Spaced Out! to feast your ears on, as well as a number of new lore entries in the Codex. We've added details to the background of rocket interiors as they travel to different parts of space.

The new Location Sensor can be combined with an automation port on the Rocket Control Station to manage how your Duplicants use various facilities inside rockets. No more Meep using Mae's toilet or Ruby sneaking in a quick snack before launch!

And of course, there's a number of bug fixes and polish improvements. Please let us know in the bug forums if you see anything unexpected, and as always, thank you for your feedback!

[h2]All Oxygen Not Included Players[/h2]
Now that both versions of the game are on a unified codebase, there will be simultaneous updates to the base game each time a DLC update goes out. While the Solar Swamped Update's new features are for Spaced Out!, this update also includes a large number of bug fixes for ONI.

We've fixed a number of issues introduced to the base game by the Breath of Fresh Air update, including a number of worldgen fixes (available on newly generated worlds) as well as some issues with Space Scanners.

Occasionally there may be new bugs as well, so as development on the game continues please let us know if you find any issues!

Hello everyone!

Today's patch continues fixing up many of the bugs and inconsistencies introduced to Oxygen Not Included by this last update. Thank you as always for your bug reports and discussion threads!
