FluxWerks patch notes & updates

FluxWerks v0.5.21 - 19-10-2026 New Features Settings Sync - Your settings, keybinds and language now follow you through Steam Cloud to a new computer or a fresh install. Graphics and display settings stay with each computer.

v0.5.20 - Community localization support through workshop, fixes and balancing.

Just to be clear, there are still no new languages officially supported. People who want to translate game to their language can do so by going to the Settings -> Language on main menu and create a new copy of the english translation file in PO format and make the translations…

FluxWerks v0.5.18 - 02-10-2026 New Features Keep in Inventory - Set how many of each item to carry. You can have items automatically move between nearby storages and your inventory based on the rules you configure.

One week into Early Access

v0.5.17 - Better inventory and critical bugfix

Thanks to everyone who has been giving feedback and reporting bugs. I've got a lot of reports and improvement suggestions via the in-game reporting tool, forum and Discord and just wanted to say that I do go through each of those and write down the ideas, feedback and bugs…

v0.5.16 - Visual guidance, Smarter router connections

FluxWerks v0.5.16 - 26-09-2026 New Features Flow View - Lines show items and fluids moving through belts, pipes and their buildings, red where something can never work, amber where belt tiers change.

v0.5.15 - Pump system rework and UX/Qol/Fixes

FluxWerks v0.5.15 - 24-09-2026 New Features Pipe Flow - Select a pipe to see what fills it and what empties it and which side is the bottleneck. Improvements Crash Reports - The crash dump now starts ticked like every other attachment. You can still untick it before sending.

Early access is live!

Feels like I should write something longer here, but I'll keep it short because my brain is drained empty and it is just too exciting to finally have the game out. What a great milestone to hit, but there is still a long way to go with more content to add and polishing to do!

v0.5.14 - Bug fixes and QoL

The best feature ever, mining under trees now automatically marks them for harvest!

v0.5.13 - Drone logistics improvements

FluxWerks v0.5.13 - 17-09-2026 New Features Drone Fluid Freight - Drone Ports now ship fluids as well as items. Pump into a port's To Ship tank and request the fluid at the receiving port, the same way as an item.

v0.5.12 - Router clusters???

What is this, you ask? Well, that is a router cluster! You can now combine routers and create any kind of connected shape you want up to 16 routers and they work together as one. Need a 1 input 4 out splitter?

v0.5.9 to v0.5.11 - Bug fixes and polish

FluxWerks v0.5.11 - 11-09-2026 Improvements Xenomass - Now climbs raised platforms and cliffs of any height, spreads back down from them, and crosses gaps and moats. Harvester - Collects Xenomass at any height inside its area, instead of only near its own level.

v0.5.5 to v0.5.8 - QoL and better light configurations.

FluxWerks v0.5.8 - 06-09-2026 New Features Light Block - A one-block lamp that attaches to any solid block, walls and ceilings included, with the Light Post's color, brightness and night-only settings. Researched with Illumination, under Decoration in the build menu.

v0.5.1 to 0.5.4 - Achievements, Cloud saves and QoL

FluxWerks v0.5.4 - 02-09-2026 New Features Named Worlds - New worlds get a name, and the load screen now groups every save under its world, with autosaves kept per world. Older saves keep working and ask for a name the next time you save.

v0.5.0 - End game goal, events, farming...

FluxWerks v0.5.0 - 29-08-2026 New Features Saves - Saves from before v0.5.0 will not load. To continue an old game, install the v0.4 branch from the Steam Betas tab.

v0.4.0 - So many things

This became a HUGE update with a lot of QoL features like blueprints, a lot more later tech content (not in demo), complete tech tree rebalance, but also major visual updates and behind the scenes stability and performance improvements and bug fixes.
