v1.15.5 - The Flexible Hopper Belts Update!

[p][/p][p][/p][p]Dear Stormworkers, [/p][p][/p][p]This update extends the new flexible ammo belt concept to hoppers! We have added a new belt part for connecting hoppers together, making it easier to build any ore, mining, or fishing equipment.

As well as this, we have added a new toggle to allow or disallow modded components in servers. We have also added a new electric node to some of the train wheels, to assist some players make electric trains. This was requested during the recent Q&A session.

We have also resolved a performance issue where the game previously slowed down over time.

We have also added the Geometa logo to the game.[/p][p][/p][p][/p][p]
There are also a bunch of fixes and improvements outlined in the patch notes below.

Another special thanks to the players who joined us at the recent Q&A session, and to those who asked questions! We have planned to implement some of what was discussed in the first half of 2026!

v1.15.4 - The Flexible Ammo Belts Update!



Dear Stormworkers,

This update introduces new flexible ammo belts for guns! Like all weapons content, they can be placed cosmetically in the base game but require the Search & Destroy DLC to operate.

These new belt components can be placed like regular components, then linked together using the rope tool. This generates a flexible chain of links in the ammo chain. This is a long requested feature, and has been asked for since before the Search and Destroy DLC was even released!



We have also added a new node for detaching ropes from winches and some anchors using logic.

We have also made some minor fixes and improvements, please see the patch notes below for details.

Much love
The Stormworks Developers
