Functional

Render

- Space Engineers 2 Workshop
- In-game Blueprint interface - Additional features and improvements will be introduced based on player feedback.
- Published items are Public by default.
- Displaying Steam Workshop Collections in-game is planned.
- Blueprint screen refresh can be very slow in some cases - it should be fixed in the next update.
- Your owned Private items are not currently visible in the in-game Workshop browser.
- We are addressing edge cases where re-publishing, renaming, tag display in the Steam interface, and sorting may not work as intended.
- Offline mode improvements - we are working on better handling when Steam is offline.
- Keyboard and mouse controls are not customizable yet, but they will be!
- Toolbar block groups and sizes (block selection via R key) are a temporary mechanism and will be redesigned in a near update.
- We have additional Symmetry Mode fixes planned for VS1.2
- We’re aware of incompatibility at launch of Space Engineers 2 on Intel Arc A-Series and Core Ultra Series 1 built-in Arc GPUs. We are working with Intel to enable the game experience and will provide relevant updates as development progresses.
- Some blocks are decorative-only for now (for example, the Assembler is present but cannot produce components)
- Performance
- Performance optimization is ongoing. For Alpha release, we’re targeting 16x Red Ship grids at 60 FPS on recommended hardware.
- Autosave may cause brief lags during gameplay.
- Performance optimizations of ship collisions and destruction are ongoing, so it won’t be lag-free at this moment. We will be continuously improving it in the following updates.
- PCU values per block may appear higher compared to Space Engineers 1, reflecting SE2's increased detail and more precise performance measurements. While the current total PCU limit is set at 400,000 in VS1, we plan to raise this threshold in future updates as we implement scheduled optimization improvements.
- The current GUI (Graphical User Interface) and HUD (Heads-Up Display) are works in progress. Our team is prioritizing core functionality first. Once we've confirmed all features are working as intended, we'll enhance the visual design and overall aesthetics.
- The inventory system will be implemented in a future update.
- Fracture models will receive additional visual updates in future versions.
- Inverse kinematics (IK) is not yet implemented. Animations for uphill/downhill movement, jumping, and tools will be refined in the future update.
- Undo/redo functionality for the paint tool is not implemented yet, but internally we already have it, so it will be available in a near update. Changing block colors currently requires switching to the paint tool, but this will be streamlined. In addition, the paint tool’s limited palette is temporary; future updates will include RGB/HSV color settings and custom palettes.
- Jetpack mechanics are being polished, including adjustments to boost, acceleration, sound effects, and camera shake is coming in VS 1.2
- We continue to experiment with the off-center third-person camera for characters and ships.
- Ship controls are functional but will be further refined with target-based gyroscope controls.
- Character shadow in first-person mode is disabled temporarily and will be re-enabled in future animation updates.
- Work on enhanced sound effects is ongoing, including jetpack audio, debug gun, ship sounds and destructions.
- The Alpha releases in English language, more localizations will follow.
- Sometimes character peeks through the cockpit - this will be fixed in the following update.
- Tutorials will be added closer to the end of development.
