This build adds a number of bugfixes. The biggest one is that random number generation (RNG) is revamped to prevent inconsistencies that were present before. RNG volumes are now generated in a way to give guarantees that they will visit the entire value range for any given positi
This update lets you grow fungus and obtain various useful materials from it! :) Fungus spores will now change into the static fungus pixels when they settle on a material that fungus is able to grow through. Here is the current list: Dirt, Loam, Limestone, Limestone Wall, Apatit
Just a quick update to add this as fast as possible: UI scaling is now finally in the game! The default keys for scaling the UI are comma and period (they are rebindable in settings) The UI scale is saved/restored in the device save data. Also: this patch includes a bunch of loca
This update adds Phosphoric Acid and some ways to create a variety of sodas and cola :) (making soda is going to be important for an upcoming Slime Ranching update) Apatite also now mines into 3 variants: Fluorapatite, Chlorapatite, and Hydroxylapatite, each of which can react wi

Here are a couple quick hotfixes while I'm working on some bigger updates: QoL: delay resaving the *.universe file when the player restores an element so it doesn't create a pause - this is what was causing the freezing for some people when completing an element in the ship progr
Today I did a bunch of bugfixes, and also made adjustments to lava! Andesitic Lava now cools into Sodium Aluminosilicate, and I added reactions for Sodium Aluminosilicate and its downstream products: Sodium Silicate, Sodium Aluminate, and Aluminum Hydroxide, to connect it into ot
Atomcraft is on sale for the week of the PvE Survival Crafting Fest!!! Here's an overview of Survival Mode for new players: SURVIVAL MODE OVERVIEW Survival Mode adds a lot of additional challenges to the core building/exploration-oriented mode, for example: Slimes spawn on the su

This adds a few things, mostly related to the save system: put in better containment for when errors occur on planet segments in the loading and saving processes in situations where a planet segment didn't get saved properly, will load as empty instead of being filled with sand B
We have big updates to the save system in this build! The new save system will save everything related to a particular world into a singular .universe file in the Worlds directory (currently about 120MB). It does atomic saves and maintains a list of 5 rolling backups, so it shoul
With this update I have mostly made some improvements to memory allocations and performance that should help to reduce stuttering for players who have been experiencing it. But also, I found out how to play video clips in Godot and started adding video previews to the crafting me
Just a couple quick things today: QoL: If something is already in your Material HUD Bar and you Middle-mouse-button it to select it, it'll just select the existing material slot instead of assigning a duplicate QoL: Walk-Through-Walls Boots only operate when in Jetpack Hover Mode
Temperature Sensor pixels are now in the game! These should be handy for temperature regulation in machines. :) You can use Rotate and Program (as well as the Wrench) to adjust the settings. Possible values are 500K, 1000K, 1500K, and 2000K. When the Temperature Sensor pixel reac
Some great updates today: the Balancer and Splitter are now added to the game! The Balancer takes in inputs from the left and the right in a perfectly alternating manner, and drops them below. Each time it takes an input from the left or the right it switches state, and it only a
Berry bushes can now finally be planted using Berries :) They grow very quickly (will probably get some tuning in the future), so now you can create your Berry and Wine auto-farms! Other hotfixes: BUGFIX: another attempt at making the jump/jetpack-impulse fully framerate independ
Here are some quick hotfixes and additions for Survival Mode! Wire-blocks now allow materials to pass through vertically or horizontally, but block on diagonals - the diagonal passage was creating some confusing situations with ways that people commonly use wires, so I'm hoping t
Survival Mode is now in the game! I know what you're thinking - there already was a Survival Mode! Well, that mode is now Normal Mode, and we have a NEW mode called Survival Mode which adds a lot of additional challenges, for example: Slimes spawn on the surface and are more prev
