MODS - improved Steam Workshop

Hey Colonists!

The game recently got a few interesting mods, so I started to think that is a perfect moment to improve how mods are operating in the game and make it even more seamless when it comes to integration with Steam Workshop.

Steam Workshop

It becomes now the main mod tab where you can find and download mods.

Every mod is now correctly showing:

• author
• upvotes and downvotes
• creation date
• last update date

Download progress is now visible thanks to a progress bar.

The new downloader is checking the location of the mod and main files (.uplugin) to ensure that they are placed in the correct directory.

If a mod already exists, it is automatically uninstalled and prepared for the fresh installation, this way updating mods is easier than before.

NEW MODS

I would love to share some interesting mods that came recently to the game. I am super impressed by how active the modding community has become. Thank you again MtyShack ;)

Colony Rotation

It is finally possible to rotate a Colony with all docked planets and voxels.

Blueprint Creation

It converts selection into blueprint as usual but is adding all attachments.

Transit Portal

Portal allows to teleport easily between bases and even different universes!

New decoration packs

There are 3 new packs of decorations that can be easily placed, scaled, rotated, and moved. Each asset pack weighs ~200 MB and adds many sci-fi elements to the game.

Planet Atmospheres

Adds visible atmospheres with varied skies, clouds, colors and haze.
