1.3.0.5 - Stability Patch Modding Water painted in the ModSDK's custom scene editor now uses its in-game color, making it easier to tell water types apart. Tiles without an icon in the ModSDK's custom scene editor now get a button preview generated from their tileset sprite sheet instead of an empty button. Added a "Hide Placeable Objects" toggle to the ModSDK's custom scene editor, which hides placed objects in the Scene view so only tiles are visible. This makes it easier to paint tiles in scenes with lots of objects. Fixed object IDs of modded objects depending on the order mods were loaded in, which could cause modded objects to get mixed up when the load order changed. Fixed Steam Workshop mods still being loaded when launching the game with the no mods option.

Hey Explorers, we hope you're having an awesome summer. We don't know about you, but here in the Northern Hemisphere, it has been incredibly warm and bright. You might be aware that in Sweden, it's customary for us to take some vacation time over the summer, and this is something we do as a business to ensure we're rested and reinvigorated for the remainder of the year. We've been spending some time away from our desks these past few weeks, but that doesn't mean we don't have time for a little community wrap up! What're Your Favourite Scenes? Scenes are unique pockets of the world that generate all over the map in Core Keeper. They can come in many forms, but you'll know you've found once because it will be distinct from the rest of your surroundings. Take the broken bridge in Azeos' Wilderness for example! You'll even find scenes created by your fellow Explorer's in the game thanks t...

These are titled "Mining Droplets" and "Nature Nuance" and were created by our very own Fredrik Präntare before we began work with Jonathan Geer! ✨ If you already own the soundtrack or Explorer's Edition...

Hi there Explorers! Gosh, it's been a hot minute since we've had a community update. We were doing these weekly at one point, but we think a monthly cadence will be a little more enjoyable for those of you who wish to keep up with all the lovely things going on across our community spaces without these updates dominating your Steam news feeds! As many of you know by now, the development team takes a little time off during the summer to rest and recuperate. That doesn't mean that there's not plenty of Core Keeper activity going on across our Discord, X, Instagram and BlueSky accounts, though! The community team is still hard at it, bringing you the Core Keeper content you know and love. So, let's take a look at what we've been sharing and what the community has been up to! 5-Set Fishing Bonus Here's a top tip for all you fishing enthusiasts!

Read full update on Steam ↗1.1.2.2 Post-Update Stability Patch
Miscellaneous: Fixed an issue that prevented some mods from loading correctly on non-Steam PC platforms. Graphics: Cattle Feeding Trays no longer clip into walls.

This scenario can typically only occur if mob farms have been left unattended for an extended period. Bug Fixes: Robot Arms no longer leave invisible dropped items on the ground if they pick up items when the player is not nearby. This could previously cause severe performance problems if Robot Arms were left unattended for an extended period. Fixed an issue where the Atlantean Worm sometimes created an extra map marker that wouldn’t follow the boss. Pets can now appear on bridges. Pets should now teleport to the player after a few seconds if there is no viable path due to a closed door. Root plants no longer b...

Particle effects are now loaded in a more efficient manner at the start of the game. Initializing fonts no longer causes excessive memory allocations at the start of the game.

Gameplay: New Pet: Earie New Decorative Items for Pets, craftable in the Loom: Pet Bed Naptree Nook Woof Cabin Perch Pole New Weapon: Noxious Meteor Staff New Offhand item: Scratched Stone Cattle Color Variations: Cattle now come with coats in different colors. Cattle babies will typically inherit the coat of one of their parents, but there is a chance they will "mutate" and have a random coat color. Breeding can now be toggled on/off for each individual cattle animal through a button in their information window. The primary use for Tomes that summon ranged or melee minions now commands the spawned minions to go to a certain location or focus on a specific target.

The Garden Trowels no longer try to plant seeds on top of already grown plants. The “High quality equipment” skill should now work correctly, increasing the chance of equipment not losing durability as stated in its description.
