10th August – Manipulates anything that matters!

Happy Monday!

Click the image for a high res version. So hey! Your Matter Manipulator is now used for mining, wiring and painting. You use hot keys to switch between modes. Convenience!

What do you think of the change? Let us know in the comments. <3

7th August – Sort it out!

Happy Friday!

Quite a few nightly build players have already noticed this, but we’ve added an inventory auto-sort button!

We’ve also added an additional inventory box for objects, so you don’t have loads of chairs cluttering up what precious little space you have in your main inventory box. The auto-sort button will sort materials, objects and general items into their proper boxes so you don’t have to.

This has been one of my most anticipated features, simple as it is, and I have a feeling some of you have felt the same way. It’s worth noting that the sorting function isn’t perfect just yet — we’re still working on sorting items more helpfully. For now, though, I’m finding it quite helpful. :) This feature is available right now in the nightly build.

Let us know what you think, and have a lovely weekend! <3

6th August – Cabin in the Woods

Hello!

We’re in the middle of implementing some inventory changes that I think a lot of you will be super excited about (I know I am!) — if all goes well, I should be able to show them off tomorrow! For now, here’s some cozy cabin furniture.

‘Til tomorrow! <3
