3d patch

STEADY STATE Playtest · published 30 Oct 2026, 22:25 UTC · build 26335570

The game is now fully 3D: turn and tilt the camera, and zoom in close.
Rolling hills, cliffs and lakes.
New trees, plus undergrowth, meadow flowers and scrub.
A real day: sunrise, sunset, dark nights, cloud shadows and rain.
Every machine rebuilt in 3D, with moving parts.
No more walking engineer: place pods with a click, drones build from the nearest pod, and WASD moves the camera.
New research facility: send a drone to study wrecks.
New graphics settings: tree detail, ground detail, plants, automatic graphics, and a DirectX 12 option.
Status marks over machines can be hidden with J.
Smoother when panning far out or zoomed all the way out.
Many fixes to the tutorials and the first hour.
