Lumen is a fully dynamic global illumination solution that immediately reacts to scene and light changes, enhancing realism. It provides natural light and reflections across diverse environments without the need for traditional baking processes, significantly improving visual fidelity and immersion.

The Block Network v3 represents an advanced iteration of interconnected systems, facilitating a network of networks characterized by highly efficient switch toggling. This architecture allows for seamless integration and communication between different network nodes, ensuring optimal performance

The save system has undergone a comprehensive overhaul, introducing a new user interface that enhances interaction and usability. With improved, predictable behavior, the system now offers more reliability.

I have added multiple decorative blocks and working on possibility do add more with mods.

0.19 is available in the indev branch. It is still in development but already stable enough to take a look.

I am adding non-cubic decorative blocks, and there will be more in the future. All such blocks can be painted with the Paint Tool

Now, rotating with R + Shift / Alt is much more predictable, and there is a visual hint for such rotation. Press Shift or Alt to see it. Also, rotation during construction with the right mouse button held down now works more predictably

Power output from solar panels has significantly increased, but now it depends on their angle relative to the sun. Large panels can rotate when kinetic energy is supplied to them.

Tools are now always in a separate inventory, from which they cannot be removed, but they can be placed on the quick access panel. Shift + right click provides tool settings, for example, you can disable the digging of certain types of blocks or adjust the digging speed. There are no longer levels of Multitool, but there is research that increases its working speed.

In versions 0.19-0.20, I plan to focus more on finite resources and balance, as blueprints will make it much easier to copy production. General components have been added, for which it makes sense to build a factory, like a gearbox. Also, recursive crafting of solar elements is a fair price, as energy production directly depends on the number of solar elements used and the space they occupy

I have added a beautiful and expandable solution for creating in-game tutorials/detailed tooltips. Based on this, the main mechanics of the game will be explained, and in the future, this tutorial will guide you through all the main stages of developing your base on the way to completing the game. Note that all existing tooltips are already based on a mod, and mods are already available for creation.

Much much more content are in development, i will release it in future update to not overload this one.

Please note that many features in this selection are still in development, although many of them are already available for look in indev branch

I am working on blueprints; the main functionality is already complete, and now I am working on the UI as well as ways to share blueprints. Plans include creating local storage, the ability to share using a base64 code string, and publishing blueprints to the Steam Workshop cloud

The upcoming overhaul of the drilling rig system marks a significant step forward in enhancing resource extraction mechanics and balancing the in-game economy. This update is designed to introduce more depth and strategy to resource gathering, encouraging players to plan and optimize their drilling operations. With improved drilling rig functionality, players can expect a more realistic and engaging experience in locating and extracting resources.

0.19 is available in the indev branch. It is still in development but already stable enough to take a look.

The electric network code has been optimized for more even distribution, and the issue of skipped consumers has been fixed.

Significant improvements include a 50% reduction in computing time for resource networks, achieved by eliminating the shuffle step. This efficiency is possible as the network now accurately distributes power based on the known power requirements of all consumers.

Note that with multiple heavy consumers and numerous small ones, some operational changes may occur. Additionally, the precision of requested values could vary due to electricity buffers in some machines.


Now you can select rule signals from input signals.
Logic circuit UI was improved.

• Autoloot mined items
  
• Furnace light animation
  
• Drag item to same item fix
  
• Fusion reactor animation bug
  
• Arc furnace glowing rods fix
  
• Robot arm copy setting actor fix
  
• Item DB context out of screen fix

For the upcoming 0.19 update, I plan to implement railroads, introduce optional finite resource deposits, and enhance the distribution and searching mechanics for deposits. Currently, my focus is on migrating the game to Unreal Engine 5.3, a task which is nearing completion.

We would like to inform you about the forthcoming update for Evospace. This update includes several new features, improvements, and bug fixes. Here are the details:

A significant enhancement in this update is the introduction of 'Sector Structure 0.19'. This new sector structure has been developed for better performance. As part of our commitment to compatibility, we have taken a transitional step to ensure that maps from all previous versions of the game can be opened in the new update.
'Planar Water' is added. Big simplification but also huge optimization and fix.
New blocks: 'HandGenerator Block' and 'KineticHeater Block' is added.
Model improvements: The models for 'Sifter', 'Compact Generator', and 'Induction Furnace' have been updated.

A new 'lua lib' has been added for improved scripting.
The 'Jetpack Effect' will now be disabled on low settings to optimize performance.
The 'Item Rack' will now include descriptions for improved usability.

The animation for 'Chem Bath' has been fixed.
The issue with 'Titanium Ingot Achievement' has been resolved.
The'Cell Hand Recipe' bug has been fixed.

We have much more updated content and plan to publish it with small parts. New loading menu, block replace, updated models, new tech, modding and more.

We will continue to work on further updates for Evospace and appreciate your ongoing feedback.

Thank you.
