Just before you go, we thought we'd give you some insight on factions in Sheltered 2.

In Sheltered 2, factions are one of the biggest additions to the series — and will play a core role in the experience. In order to beat the game, you need to defeat or, ally with all of the factions on the map!

Sheltered 2 release date info is coming very soon!

Aloha Thrivers!

We’ve been hard at work updating the game and integrating your suggestions. Our Kickstarter campaign is just around the corner and we’re excited to share where we see the game heading with the backing of your support. In the meantime, we’ve added a huge amount of new content and upgrades to keep the momentum going. We are breaking up the amount of stuff we’re showing off so we’ll have another update early next week just to cover everything.

Your feedback is super important to us so keep it coming! If you’re interested in helping out, head over to our discord and let us know! We love hearing your ideas and talking about what’s coming up next.

Here’s a look at just some of the biggest improvements players will see and all the fixes we’ve made thanks to our testers.



We’re adding a bunch of vendors to the game's starting area, The Throcon Power Plant. Our goal is to make everything a player might need to survive and thrive for a price available through various vendors.


Here’s a look at one of the latest, an ammo vendor.



We tried out a few different configurations to see what would fit best.


Here is a mock-up of what it would look like inside.

We’ve completely overhauled the inventory to make it better looking and the UI easier to use and more intuitive.


BEFORE: Some of our original testers will recognize the look and feel between the old inventory


AFTER: After getting some feedback, and talking a lot about what works best, this is the new version.

We also updated our vendor screens. After showing mockups and hearing the community’s thoughts, we settled on this design for handling all of your vendor dealings and transactions.


We’ve introduced flare guns in the game. They’re great for signaling other players or distracting the drone if it is focused on you when you’re trying to be stealthy.


They do attract mutants and other players can see them but that can work to your advantage if you have people sneaking around your base with bad intentions during the night.


Of course, if you’re more concerned about aesthetics than tactics, there are very few things more beautiful than being chased by a group of burning mutants.


We’ve made looting a lot more fun by adding a breaking system to the items you find exploring the map.


Bags fall apart.


Crates break up.


Bodies explode into parts and potentially useful items when you hack at them now.


Even the hanging bodies you find around the map fall apart when you damage them enough.


We’re not encouraging you to do it, and you may not like the treats inside, but hitting one of the “mutant pinatas” will make stuff drop out now.

While we were busy making things break in new and interesting ways we decided to add a destruction feature to player constructions because sometimes tearing stuff down can be just as fun as building something up.


Attacks on your base won’t cause your construction pieces to disappear anymore; they actually fall apart.


Sometimes the results can be very dramatic, just look at how much air this piece of foundation gets.


Lastly, we’ve given our sewer dungeon a big facelift and added a few more passages to explore.


The place has come a long way since the days when everyone had one choice of clone.






We’ve improved lighting and textures, added more dangers and rooms to explore, and put a fresh coat of slime on the walls to make your time down there as enjoyably horrifying as possible.


Mahalo to our testers who help us find what’s not working and what can be improved in the game. Your feedback is very important to us so keep it coming! If you’re interested in helping out, head over to our discord and let us know! Here’s everything you found and we fixed this week.

The beta version of the game is finally available!

Although the game is fully playable, it still lacks a number of 3D models, illustrations and icons. We're doing our best to complete the game by the end of the year.

To celebrate the opening of the beta, every Saturday in August you will get a quest giving you 10 Krystal Coins for every 3 wins! Enjoy it :)

We thank all the testers, thanks to them various bugs were discovered and fixed for the launch of the beta!

We are going to organize an event soon, but the theme is not yet decided. Tournaments? Drawings? Map editing? or maybe something else? What do you prefer?

-NEW ARCADE INSPIRED BY DUCK HUNT

Dear Stormworkers,

You can now refuel your aircraft air-to-air using the new official aerial refueler!

The aerial refueler is a new AI plane that patrols the skies of the Stormworks world. It is visible on revealed areas of the map and flies at a steady heading and direction. The fuel tanker aircraft carries auxiliary fuel for delivery via hoses on the left and right wings.



When joining the aircraft, you can refuel via a simple fluid connector. When connected, pressurised fuel is fed to your connector, and consumption is charged in a similar way to buying fuel from a fuel gantry, except at a high flat rate. While it is the most expensive way of taking fuel, the refueller can roam anywhere across the Stormworks map and can extend the range of aircraft operations.



We look forward to seeing how Stormworks pilots react to the new refueller! This has been created using the existing add-on system and is very similar to AI planes.

As well as this new update, there are many fixes and improvements included in the update. See the patch notes below for more info!

Much love <3,

The Stormworks Developers



Patch Notes

v1.2.18-19

Feature - Refuelling Aircraft AI Vehicle

Fix - MP client simulating physics without data from the server (vehicle rubber-banding)
Fix - isInZone now correctly checks all zones with the specified name instead of returning after one check
Fix - Magalls causing a crash when exiting from a game
Fix - setButton and setKeypad now search by name only from their respective types
Fix - Zones should now despawn after testing a location

Added the following functions:

CLOCK = server.getTime()
CLOCK = {
["hour"] = hour (24),
["minute"] = minute (60),
["daylight_factor"] = midday factor (0-1),
["percent"] = day_cycle_percent (0-1),
}

WEATHER = server.getWeather(transform_matrix)
WEATHER = {
["fog"] = fog factor (0-1),
["rain"] = rain factor (0-1),
["snow"] = snow factor (0-1),
}

Added .voxels field to getVehicleData

The following functions have been reworked to return a table and is_success instead of individual parameters to make them more scalable/neat:
data returns null if is_success is false

data, is_success = getVehicleDial
data = { value = value_primary, value2 = value_secondary }

data, is_success = getVehicleTank
data = { value = current_amount, capacity = capacity }

data, is_success = getVehicleBattery
data = { charge = charge_factor }

data, is_success = getVehicleHopper
data = { value = current_amount, capacity = capacity }

data, is_success = getVehicleSign
data = { pos = { x, y, z } }

"It is time to take the initiative."
