changedWe cannot support the stability of third-party tools. We have no way of knowing how they will affect your game or what additional bugs they may contribute to your experience. This can also hinder our ability to investigate bugs and crash reports, as our reporting methods can be diluted with problems caused by these third-party tools. As of right now, our largest crash count is due to people using these tools.
changedAs a reminder, we've implemented settings in the in-game rulesets to hopefully cover many of the features players are seeking from third-party tools, such as unlocking all abilities and all recipes, infinite build resources and infinite stamina, disabling durability, no drop-on-death, and others.

Before using mod tools, please investigate your options here. If there are essential settings you feel are missing from the in-game rulesets, please submit those as requests to Feature Upvote.

  • Fixed stamina drain issue for glide

  • Fixed an issue with Vitalis arrows not healing friendly players

  • Fixed an issue causing ranged based soldiers to not fire

We will review all reports and feedback in the new year when we will be jumping back into development on our next update, so continue to post your bugs to Feature Upvote. If you need immediate support, please come to our Discord! Best for now!
