Fixed a station server crash that sometimes happened when player exits station editor. Fixed a station server crash when station blueprint saving fails. Fixed a case of station saving erroneously failing. Prevented exiting the Station Editor via the menu during Station Replacement progress. Fixed a case where station replacement failed and deleted the station with it. Improvements and a possible fix for station object snapping for structures that are built from many smaller single pieces. Fixed "PTU Wait Times" test option blocking the Siege panel error message of allowing only one siege terminal per Capital ship. Added Security Field Generator to Station Editor as well for station usage. Prevented unauthorized ships from entering the Station/Capital Security Zone, including ship passengers. Fixed Security Field Generator area being able to be changed during a Siege. Fixed frequent free…
- Starbase Test Universe Update 16.10.2024 - STU Build 1000062 - 16 October 2024
New Siege feature: Station Foundation Security and Capital Security Field Generator. For Stations: - The Foundation Unit's station area will be automatically applied as the Secure Zone of the station when its loaded after the update. - During a Siege, players can respawn from the Foundation Unit (for now without restrictions or any sort of cooldown etc.) - The middle area (that is last to be captured) is surrounded by a "safezone" field, that protects all objects inside from damage, but does not protect players from damage. - Also blocks hostile and neutral players from entering, only those that chose your side for the Siege can enter. For Capitals: - A new craftable object "Security Field Generator" needs to be placed somewhere on the Capital and activated. - That build area will become the Secure Zone and will function identically to the Station's one. - If multiple Security Field Gen…
- Starbase Test Universe Update 07.10.2024 - STU Build 1000060 - 7 October 2024
You can now remove station access rights to other player's stations for yourself in station menus. Fixed lag and short freeze when opening the personal window (ex. via H, O or J), when player had access to many player's stations. Optimized station device data, fixing Capital ship statistics in the resource and fast travel terminals not showing due to very many devices connected in a large network. - Fixed large resource amounts being improperly reported by the station utility grid terminal. Fixed Capital Ship integrity issues that were caused by parts poorly choosing the area they belong to when overlapping area borders. Added a chat error if Capital Ship has multiple different frames that are disconnected from each other inside a build area. Triggers when player is in Integrity view inside that build area. Fixed hangar hall beams sometimes getting offset and rotated from purchasing a s…
- Starbase Test Universe Update 26.9.2024 - STU Build 1000059 - 26 September 2024
Shadowrealm workaround implemented. - Improvements made to the limiting of initial connection amounts present in previous implementations as well. - We can now configure this limit serverside without patching, so it can be changed on the fly if necessary. - There will be a new Shadowrealm community test soon, see a post about it in discord later. Station's Class is now shown consistently at stations and via Siege Panels once the whole station is loaded after this patch. Fixed Siege panels to correctly check player's Navigation Chips for Siegeable stations around a 200km radius of the coordinates, instead of players having to visit faraway stations in the same session to be able to Siege them. Fixed a station content client crash when deleting station blueprints
- Starbase Test Universe Update - STU build 1000058 - 12 September 2024
Fixed Recycling tool being unable to recycle parts that were made up of non-default materials. Fixed parts with non-default materials having incorrect armor values when dropped into the world. Improvements and optimizations to station designers when working with large amount of objects (moving, copying, deleting, etc.) "Open or manage blueprints" dialog is now closed after a station blueprint replace operation has been selected. Fixed replacing a station with a max size blueprint getting the designer stuck in loading. Potential fix for station devices freezing computers with low available threads. Fixed stations replaced with a blueprint sometimes failing to load after the blueprint was deleted after.
- Starbase Test Universe Hotfix 05.09.2024 - STU Build 1000057 - 5 September 2024
Fixed Capital Ship building area claim working only once per editor session. Fixed the editor building area claim message to accurately tell the amount of areas that player can claim. Fixed some station objects not supporting Decals. (even legacy objects support them now.) Fixed Decal limit being hit erroneously in Station editors by just placing objects when not near the building limit.
- Starbase Test Universe Update - STU build 1000056 - 4 September 2024
Patch notes below. New Features Event tab (Found in the personal UI, same UI level as crafting, stations, etc) Shows all upcoming and active Sieges in the Universe. Siege can be right clicked to open a map view of where the Sieged station is. Additionally in progress or upcoming Sieges are also shown in the Galaxy Map temporarily for its duration, even if you have not discovered the station for yourself. However, there is no indicator yet in the map for a station that will be sieged, no timer or in progress icon, so currently, cross referencing with the Event menu is necessary. Decal tool for station editors. Same functionality and Decal list as in SSC. Station Paint tool was also updated for decal coloring and now matches the SSC's variant. Paint tool now refers to "objects" rather than "ship parts". Fixes Significant module data optimizations, making it much harder to hit the size cap…
- Starbase STU Update 26.07.2024 - STU Build 1000054 - 26 July 2024
Patch notes: Increased the limit of initial connection requests that is part of shadowrealm fixes Improvements to ship lod updating, ex. ships showing damaged lods post repair - Ships that are split into many ships and those build in universe should now have lods too (these still disappear though if not claimed and get unhosted) Fixed players being unable to start ship warps on ships not hosted by them

Previous patch fixes in builds 1000048-1000050 Optimized Module server data usage and performance Fixed a bug where station parts would get deleted and editing the station would cause server disconnect due to parts outside of station zone. Removed Ghidorah Mk2 and Mooray ships from SSC premade folder due to creator requests. Fixed empty capital ship at station dock causing siege to never end. Fixed crash caused by reconstruction machine on a sieged player station. Fixed siege not being immediately repeatable with STU settings due to post-siege protection. Fixed ships spawning to wrong location from hangars in some coordinates. Improved reconstruction machine respawning reliability. Please let us know how the player interactions are working,…

- Starbase STU Update 10.07.2024 - STU Build 1000047 - 16 July 2024
Fixed another invisible UI in the Station Editors. - Due to this fix, the station editor UI boxes will reset to their default sizes and orientations after this update. Fixed ctrl + a being able to select capital ship dock corner holograms in capital ship designer. Made temporary changes to P2P connections: - This will likely cause increased latency, but will help us to pinpoint the "shadow realm" issue's origin depending whether or not it still occurs.
- Starbase STU Update 10.07.2024 - STU Build 1000045 - 10 July 2024
Patch notes: Station blueprints now have a max file size, so the very biggest of stations may not be able to be saved or used to replace stations anymore. - As such, very large stations may get the "Station too large to perform blueprint operation." error, even if otherwise within building budget limits. - However, we have optimized station data usage slightly, with more significant tweaks to come in the future, so the max limits shouldn't be so easy to reach. - If you run into the error now, we ask for your patience as we will alleviate this issue in the future with further fixes Fixed using reconstruction machine sometimes sending players in middle of Eos. Optimized station areas to unload when enough damaged modules are present to prevent performance issues. Damaged station modules are removed after losing 60% of their contents to prevent performance issues. Applied minor fixes and a…

Fixed ships sometimes not being despawned to a correct station when multiple stations were in vicinity. Fixed test server settings for dismounted/spaceship max loaded showroom ships not doing anything. Changed stations to unload incrementally, eliminating freezes on opened station change. Fixed some missing description locales from station designer assets Decorative Column C and Window 216x864. Fixed "Base Beam 90° 12x54 cm" and "Decorative Surfacing Ceiling Plate 4" locales. Fixed ship warping causing moon collisions to shift, which in turn made it possible for players to collide with invisible walls…

Small update for today, patch notes below: Added GhidMk2 ship to spaceship designer premade ships folder. - Note that you need to save premade ships to yourself first before you can purchase them - Reminder, that STU has a ship override in effect in SSC, where all ships that are purchased need no ore or credits to buy Fixed pilot chair parts not bolting together. Reduced research cost of all technologies to 0.

- Major Test Universe Update - 25 June 2024
It's time for our first Starbase update in quite some time and it's a pretty big one! All of you who have purchased Starbase now have a separate app in your Steam library called "Starbase Test Universe" aka the STU, and it is now open. This replaces the old PTU beta branch, so now you won't need to swap between builds when playing on the Live Universe and on the Test Universe. Full Patch Notes: New features Ship Warp A method of fast travel usable on all ships, pressing X while seated on a Pilot Chair brings up the menu. Can warp to a map target, warp ping, navigation chip location or pointing a ship at a direction and manually determining warp distance. Ship warp has a five minute cooldown after usage and during the time warp is charged ship must remain close to the spot charging was started at. A charge can be held for five minutes before it is released and propellant is used during c…
- Starbase Development Continues - 26 April 2024
