Hey guys! A new small update, 1.0.120, is out!

- Fixed Undo/Redo causing blocks to overlap with other blocks in multiplayer
- Fixed a skin discontinuity where the tube connects to the jetpack
- Fixed swapped mass values between Frame Half Curved 2 and Frame Half Curved 6
- Fixed inverted roll output on the Gyro-Line when set to the 180° rotated mode
- Fixed the weight of the Medium Gate
- Fixed paintable faces on the Aerometer
- Fixed Undo/Redo when painting an entire cable
- Moved the "Swap Undo/Redo" option to the Controls section in Options
- Added the game to GeForce NOW

Currently I am working on mirroring, so you can expect it in the 1-2 weeks!

Hey guys! New micro update 1.0.105 is out:

- Fixed being unable to jump on the surface of planets without an atmosphere after recent patch changes.

- Fixed key bindings sometimes not being saved. They now save immediately whenever you edit them instead of only when exiting a seat. Previously, for example, entering a seat, changing a key binding, and then quitting to the Main Menu could cause the change to be lost.

- Fixed the Thermometer.

- Improved close-range collision detection for the Long Range Distance Meter and Distance Meter.

- Fixed missing localization for the new Space Scanner Manual page.

- When picking a block from the Inventory with RMB, the Inventory will now automatically close.

Hey guys! New update 1.0.100 is out:

- Added Pause and Fast Forward to the Time Controls menu (default: P), alongside Time Rewind.
- Both Pause and Fast Forward work in singleplayer and multiplayer.
- Fast Forward speeds up the entire simulation by 3x. Nothing is skipped or simplified—the whole simulation simply runs faster.
- Because the game has to simulate 3x as much, Fast Forward uses more CPU resources and may reduce FPS.
- Added a blinking sound when you are about to complete an objective, when the required item starts glowing.
- QoL: Right-clicking an item in the inventory list now puts it directly into your hand without needing to assign it to the hotbar first.
- Highlighted the middle line of the Gyro-Line to make the center of the screen easier to see.
- Changed Fullstar/Halfstar into 3 individual stars.

Performance & Simulation:
- Improved overall game performance by around 10%, most noticeable with very large spaceships. In my test case, FPS increased from 126 → 138 in Build Mode and 80 → 87 in Fly Mode.
- Improved simulation determinism.
- Improved player and package depenetration. Packages such as the Tree Lid or Hazard Barrel should no longer glitch out of the spaceship while being moved by hand.
- Fixed movement artifacts that could slowly push you out of a spaceship while it was landed.
- Improved Long Range Distance Meter calculations from float to double precision, which should help detect extremely distant and small planets.

Balance & Gameplay:
- Slightly decreased the strength of solar storms.
- Lowered gravity inside the Black Hole Tunnel by 100.
- Reduced the radiation radius of the Hazard Barrel.
- Simplified Solar Shield absorption. It previously used flux values, which could be confusing; it now works in degrees as expected.
- Changed the tutorial ship to use only one electric circuit instead of multiple. This should prevent new players from being confused when the Radar, Display, and RCS Thrusters shut off after roughly 13 minutes of flight because those two front batteries died.

Fixes:
- Fixed the Seat outline.
- Fixed some components not appearing in the Objectives inventory tab.
- Fixed knobs on some components not having reduced sensitivity while holding Control.
- Fixed incorrect tree colliders at the Moonstep base.
- Fixed the default FOV of the Camera With Zoom and Rotational Telescopic Camera.
- Fixed an integer overflow when placing an extremely large amount of mass in the building area.
- Fixed thruster heat areas being offset by 0.01m, which could cause floating-point precision issues at their edges.
- Fixed the Red Tank description.
- Fixed packages disappearing from the spaceship after a Time Rewind if they were outside the spaceship before the rewind.
- Fixed packages not being able to take out from the spaceship during spacewalks.
- Fixed Wind Shield wind absorption being incorrectly applied to physics.
- Updated the description of the Ducted Fan speed port.

Hey everyone!

Many of you have been asking and wondering the same thing: “Will this game receive more updates, or is the 1.0 release final?”

My answer is straightforward:

YES! APPROXIMATELY UP WILL KEEP RECEIVING SIGNIFICANT UPDATES FOR AT LEAST THE NEXT 3–5 YEARS!

This is just the beginning! I’ve been working on this game for the past 5 years. I really love this game, I’m proud of it, and I fully intend to keep developing it for many more years. I genuinely love working on Approximately Up, and I want to bring you a ton of new content, features, improvements, and updates over the coming years!

Some of the things you can definitely expect in the next few weeks:

• Mirroring of individual components and whole selections

• Pausing the game in singleplayer

• Speeding up simulation time — this may be controversial for some people, but I understand there are players who still want to enjoy the game but simply don’t have hours for longer flights because of family, work, or other things. I want to come up with a solution that works for both players who want to speed up flight time and players who still want to be rewarded for completing missions in real-world time

• Undo button

• Rotating writable labels by 180 degrees

• A block that measures spaceship weight

• Emergency opening of doors if they get disconnected from power during a crash

• Data Plotter

And this is far from everything I have planned!

Stay tuned, fly safe, and thank you for your support! You are the best!
