- Animations for most traditional firearms
- Living things now have an internal temperature
- Internal temperature is shown in the Inspector panel
- Muzzleflashes not correctly scaling
- Environment tab not resizing with the containing panel
- Broken chair being way too rigid
- Table & chair being too resilient
- Weird text rendering artifacts (long overdue)
- Organisms not burning correctly

- Ion thruster
- Flintlock pistol
- Lance
- Most explosives heat up affected objects
- Utility workshop tag
- An alert that tells you which mods are significantly affecting load times
- Small button to export game debug info
- The toybox panel is now resizable
- Wooden furniture is now destructible
- Rewrote most Steam integration, mod loading, and contraption loading to be done in the background. This should fix the phenomenal startup times if you have hundreds of mods. Do note, however, that I can't control what modders make their mods do upon loading. Some mods may still freeze the game and there's nothing I can do to prevent that.
- This update will forcibly recompile all your installed mods. If you have lots of them, this will take a while. This will only happen once, though.
- Also switched to Facepunch's C# implementation of Steamworks which you won't really notice.
- Minor changes to some particle effects
- Completely changed the settings menu. It is no longer a weird game of Tetris
- Disallowed mods to use shady code (toggleable in settings)
- Tank shells are explosive
- Made humans less resilient to extreme ambient temperatures
- Light bulbs are less hot
- Slight texture changes
- Energy swords deflect blaster bolts and other energy projectiles
- Energy swords collide with other energy swords
- You can now stop resizing without having to right click the object specifically
- "Double delay" and "Half delay" type buttons are replaced with a simple number input dialog box.
- Fire spread radius decreased
- Replaced fireworks SFX
- Minor changes to firework particles
- Fireworks fuse length is now slightly randomised
- Minor performance improvements
- Changed blaster impact remnant effect
- Machine blaster bolt is slightly less bright
- Made all guns (for humans) much lighter and decreased their recoil
- Made the submachine gun a little smaller
- Useless text in mod error description
- Red barrels being unreasonably hard to set off
- Bleeding particles appearing outside the bounding box of the limb
- Ambient temperature input permanently blocking user input
- Strange Tesla coil business
- Tank barrel displacement issues
- Phenomenal startup times if you have hundreds of Workshop subscriptions
- Infinite android "blood" amount
- A bug where you sometimes couldn't delete a contraption
- Other minor bugs

Now that the Discord server is gone, preview releases will be announced here instead. Preview builds are previews of the next version of the game. These versions are unfinished, probably dysfunctional, probably slow, and may mess up your saves. However, if you're willing to risk all of this to get new features as soon as possible, you are free to opt-in to the preview branch.



WIth that out of the way, 1.18 preview 1 is currently live on the preview branch.

A note to mod developers to have their mods working in 1.18:
[expand type=showmore]

Your mod will be rejected by the system if it includes any of the following identifiers:
- InteropServices
- Diagnostics
- Http
- FileStream
- File

If your mod is being rejected, this is usually because the code includes a 'using' directive followed by an item in the list above.

The "extern" modifier and "unsafe" keyword are also rejected.

Everything was slowly burning even though it wasn't on fire. This is my fault for improperly testing things and releasing them anyway. Either way it's fixed now, your version number won't change because who cares at this point

- Temperature unit setting
- Frozen limbs turn blueish
- In-game bug report form

- Minor performance improvements
- Nuclear explosions no longer set everything on fire (necessarily)
- Nuclear explosions now only burn things in its line of sight
- Darkened the pause menu
- Power gauge is less susceptible to heat damage
- Igniting things via the context menu is more clearly effective

- Burning-related bugs
- Strange wire colour bugs
- Magic purple glow? Probably fixed?? Inform me please
- Wires on piston head (and other objects) acting weird

- Ignition sound

- Weird water bugs
- Humans not burning for some reason
- Bleeding not fully stopping when temperature is under 0
- Insulators no longer catch fire
- Collision exit bug

- Basic temperature simulation
- Most hot metals glow
- Heat pipe
- Thermometer
- Insulator
- Hovercar
- Freezeray
- Heatray
- Heating element
- Cooling element
- No collision link (Phase link)
- Framerate limit setting (will only take effect if Vsync is disabled)
- Bullets slow down and diverge under water
- Rocket launcher rockets slow down under water
- Forced resting pose

- Decreased copper wire strength
- Notifications appear instantly instead of sliding in a little too late
- Decreased base screen shake intensity
- Plates are a little less fragile
- Things burn slower
- Minor performance improvements

- Axe serialisation bug (this may break axes in existing contraptions)
- Potential temporary freezing when you have a lot of undownloaded workshop mods
- Mods being able to break the mod list
- A bug to do with sleeping rigidbodies
- Limb-to-limb energy transfer problems

- Copper wire (destructible conductive wire)
- The car engine no longer sticks out the car
- "OnLoad" will now be called when the mod is activated for the first time. This fixes a few issues.

It was not the last one.


- Mods that incorrectly call path-dependent functions will now throw exceptions

- Energy sword save/load issues
- Energy sword motion blur being invisible at low framerates

I promise this is the last one, probably.


- Screen shake was gone?? It's back now
