We’ve got one more minor content update to round the year off for you, Explorers: the aptly named Year-End Update! Playable now, this update includes a handful of fun additions including a new enemy for the Clay Caves, new decorative items, and a community-requested feature in the form of signs with customisable text! Read the full patch notes here.
Important Information on Mod Support
The Year-End Update includes mod support feature improvements. We’ve introduced elevated access for mod creators, allowing them to create a wider variety of more advanced mods. When installed, these mods have increased access to resources outside of the game such as user files and the internet. Because of this, we strongly recommend that players only install mods from reputable sources such as trusted mod creators.
To support this, we have added a new category to Mod.io called “Access Type” and, any mod that needs to run with elevated access will require the Access Type “Script (Elevated Access)”.
Users will also experience a warning pop-up that appears when they subscribe to elevated-access mods that reads:
“Caution: 'Elevated Access' mods have increased access to resources outside the game like user files and the internet. For the best experience, install only from reputable sources.”
We're Looking for Mod.io Moderators
We're on the lookout for members of the Core Keeper modding community to join our moderation team on Mod.io! Moderators are entrusted with reviewing mod submissions and keeping an eye on reports to ensure that available mods are in line with our rules and guidelines. If you like the idea of keeping Core Keeper mods a safe and enjoyable experience for everyone, then you can apply to be a Mod.io moderator here!
2024 and 1.0 F.A.Qs
Following the Year-End Update, we’ll be hard at work prepping for 2024. We’ve noticed a couple of comments from community members asking whether or not 1.0 will be bringing new content to the game, and we’re happy to confirm that 1.0 will be a major content update for us, and this is something we’re putting a lot of developer time and attention into. We’ve answered some of your frequently asked questions about our 1.0 and console launch here.
We hope you enjoy the Year-End update and are looking forward to the game’s full launch next year! Don’t forget to follow us on Twitter for updates and announcements and join our official Discord to connect with our awesome community.
