Updates and Patch Notes
August 6, 2026 at 09:47 PM
Linked the first mention of Solo Offline Mode to its new dedicated page
SpaceCraft is an online, actively developed Early Access game, so it receives regular updates. This page collects the post-launch patches, the addition of Solo Offline Mode, the ongoing balancing work, and the developer’s stated near-term priorities. For what Early Access means for the game overall, see Early Access.
Patching began within days of the June 11, 2026 Early Access launch and has continued at a steady pace. The table below summarises the numbered patches and major additions through late July 2026.
Update | Date | Highlights |
|---|---|---|
v0.3.22077 | June 12, 2026 | Stability pass: fixed sound stutter and frame-rate drops when many ships share a system, several server crashes, a case where a ship could not be repaired while in debt, and interface issues such as missing friend names in the quadrant selection screen. |
v0.3.22127 | June 15, 2026 | Added missing localisation across all supported languages, widened the scanning range of the Crude Resource Detector, began logging rare finds in the in-game Encyclopedia, and fixed further crashes. |
v0.3.22243 | June 19, 2026 | Enabled ship repair at Base Shipyards, fixed a quadrant transfer that could lose progress, resolved ships being unable to land or take off, and improved server stability. |
v0.3.22300 | June 23, 2026 | Added Hologram decoration icons to the Base Building interface and fixed Solar Plants that did not always generate power when correctly oriented toward the sun. |
v0.3.22380 (Balancing Patch) | June 26, 2026 | First balancing pass: added a Retrieve Ship option to station Shipyards, raised the default base Footprint, cut the footprint cost of Solar Panels, lowered the cost of several higher-tier Permits and crafting recipes, and eased an early Corporation delivery mission. |
v0.3.22399 | June 26, 2026 | Fixed ships stuck on landing pads and a bug that prevented creating a character in Solo Offline Mode. |
v0.3.22491 | July 6, 2026 | Performance pass: added three DLSS upscaling quality options (Max Quality, Balanced, and Max Performance), fixed several memory leaks, and resolved a login error plus a bug that left ships unresponsive after logging back in while docked. |
v0.3.22655 | July 8, 2026 | Visual pass focused on the Space Module and base: LOD fixes and optimisations, new models for the Scanalyser Beta, micro-furnace, Factory, and Pathway Stand, Parallax Occlusion Mapping on some surfaces, reworked depleted-ore models, new robot-arm animations in the station Shipyard, and new decoration icons. |
Trade Nexus Hotfix | July 8, 2026 | Fixed a crash when accessing the Trade Nexus, the shared marketplace terminal. |
v0.3.22866 | July 21, 2026 | Reduced the Trade Nexus buying tax from 20% to 8%, added confirmation prompts for Respawn, Abandon Base, and Account Reset, added a Take All button to the Warehouse and Drone Dispatcher, and began showing maximum speed and acceleration in the Ship Editor with warnings for poorly designed ships. Also fixed numerous bugs, including drones that could stop working, ships stranded in orbit after respawning, and a Galaxy Map crash. |
Hotfix v0.3.22949 | July 22, 2026 | Fixed a bug that prevented respawns, and a bug that stopped some players from connecting to certain servers. |
v0.3.22978 | July 28, 2026 | Balancing and quality-of-life pass: increased Shuttle range by 1.5x and speed by 4x, raised Exploration XP from Gravite Fragments (5 to 10) and Gravite (10 to 20), made scanning a resource grant 5 XP per resource tier, all applied retroactively, allowed bus travel while in debt up to 100 SU, and moved the Space Base 101 onboarding quest much earlier. Also fixed experience no longer accruing at the current maximum level, the Recycler deleting ingredients instead of pausing, drone routes blocked by Recyclers, Shuttles stuck on over-capacity Corporation Storage, bases that were not abandoned correctly, and the Power Transmitter supplying free power. |
v0.3.23019 | July 29, 2026 | Fixed players becoming stuck after a Wanderback teleportation and a crash when setting a Cosmic route to an undiscovered system. Flagged a crash affecting DLSS users. |
Two weeks after launch, on June 26, 2026, the developer added Solo Offline Mode, one of the most-requested features. It lets you play the whole game entirely offline as a separate experience from the shared online galaxies. You switch to it from the menu under Options, then Change Region, then Offline Mode. Because it is not a persistent online world, systems that depend on other players, such as the shared marketplace and Corporation rankings, are turned off, and its saves are kept separate from multiplayer progression. For the full detail on how it differs from the online galaxies, see Corporations and Co-Op.
The June 26 balancing patch was described as the first of several. Its focus was the later game, which some players found too grindy: it increased the default base Footprint, reduced the footprint cost of common structures, and lowered the Credit cost of several higher-tier Permits, alongside cheaper recipes for some ship-part components. These are ongoing adjustments, so exact costs and limits continue to change between updates. See Base Building and Progression: Permits and Experience for the systems these changes affect.
On July 3, 2026 the developer shared its near-term priorities. Balancing remains a top focus, especially for the late game, along with continued bug fixing, stabilisation, and performance optimisation. The team also outlined quality-of-life work in progress: a crafting overhaul, described as Crafting 2.0, that adds crafting queues and the ability to craft multiple items in a single action; improved ways for players to find a Corporation and for Corporations to recruit members; and clearer in-game help and tips. Heavier roadmap features are planned to follow once these are addressed.
The developer keeps a public hub listing the issues that affect a meaningful number of players, along with the current status of each and any workaround. The entries below were being tracked as of early August 2026 and change as fixes ship.
Issue | Status | Notes |
|---|---|---|
Crashes when DLSS is enabled | Fix on its way | Turning DLSS off avoids the crash until the fix lands. |
Quadrant transfers not behaving as expected | Fix on its way | Quadrant transfers were temporarily unavailable while the problem was addressed. |
Shipyard tutorial will not confirm a Scanner installation | Investigating | Placing the Scanner module and confirming does not apply the change, which blocks tutorial progress. |
Unable to reach your spaceship | Root cause identified | Some players cannot get back to their ship. |
Character or ship stuck, or falling through the ground | Fixed | The respawn option in the settings menu recovers a stuck character or ship. |
Stuck inside the spaceship | Fix on its way | Restarting through Steam to pick up the latest build, then respawning, clears it. |
Solo Offline Mode server error | Fixed | Some players could not reach Offline Mode. |
Issues resolved earlier in Early Access include a black screen affecting German players, the interface disappearing after a UI scale change, Russian text rendering as question marks, quadrant transfers losing progress, a battery charge underflow when removing every battery, and sound stuttering. Problems not on the hub can be reported with the in-game bug reporting tool.
Because SpaceCraft is online and still in active development, this cadence of fixes and additions is expected to continue, and the developer maintains a public known-issues list that tracks the status of reported problems. The pages on this wiki describe the game as currently confirmed and are updated as the build changes. See Getting Started to begin playing and Overview for a summary of the game’s systems.
