Summer (Update) is here!

Hey, Settlers!

Last year some of you shared ideas for more cool looking boats. I prototyped some of them but they never made it to 1.0, but I still wanted to have them in the game.

Thus, I’m launching the first planned update since version 1.0 today: there's a boatload of decorative boats that I hope will make you smile, and first shipment of the improvements I've been working on – let’s dive in!

What’s New?

Get ready for a bunch of fresh additions and fixes:

🛶 14 brand new cosmetic boats added to the boatyard

All cosmetic boats use the speed of your fastest boat, so you can sail in style with zero speed penalty. Purely for fun (and flair)!

The Unicorn

The Havenduck

The Golden Fish

Also: a clam boat. It opens when you move. It’s weird. It’s fun. You’re welcome.

🚿 New save files now use front-facing sprinklers

I received feedback that sprinklers and cranes fight for the same spot when automating farms. So based on your feedback, sprinklers now water in front for new savefiles, allowing you have better base layouts! I've also fixed other reported bugs.

🛠 Fixes and tweaks:

  • Sprinklers now rotate properly in front mode

  • Fixed the sprinkler description

  • Air Engine no longer wrongly gives the "Beyond The Sea" achievement

  • Hydronaut NPC won’t reappear after completing its quests

Hope you enjoy these new (and maybe slightly weird and cozy?) additions - as always, let me know what you think. Your feedback means the world to me! 💙

🌊 What’s Next?

This is just the first of several updates planned for the summer and beyond. Take a peek at the roadmap:

🍕 Autumn – Pizza. Vampires. Pizza Vampires? Vampire Pizza? Why not both?

✨ Winter – A brand new island full of magic and mystery

❓ And maybe… a little something extra

Full v1.1 changelog:

  • Add 14 new cosmetic boats to the boatyard

  • New savefiles now use frontal sprinklers

  • Fix sprinkler rotating animation wrong when in frontal mode

Game update10 Jul 2026v1.4.17v1.4.17 is released I noticed that sometimes the black box item would not be awarded when proceeding with the wreckage's storyline. It turned out that it would occur if you fully salvage it before hitting the investigate option, which usually does not happen in normal gameplay, but does if you skip the investigation.

Plenty of fixes were made in this update, including optimizing performance for end-game savefiles with many clownfishes, drones and other flying entities like parrots and kewi birds. Previously, late game savefiles with very high quantities of clownfish could occasionally get stuck at 90% on the loading screen. This should be addressed, and the fix also improves p…
