The year is about to come to its end - but not yet! In order to improve multiple areas of the game, we will release version 1.10.5 around mid-December.
Today, we will start the Experimental phase for you to have a look and review the changes and fixes.
Note:
On the content side, we would like you to enjoy the all-new models for constructors, deconstructors, and other crafting devices, the new deco indoor trees, a slew of new and updated POIs (some with the new Brotherhood of Farr NPC model added), a few new building shapes, improvements to the blueprint collection toolset, and more.
Of course, 1.10.5 also contains a list of bug fixes.
Please find all the details in the changelog below.
As always - please report each bug over here for this experimental release phase:

We wish you a lot of fun! :)
Notes:
- For now only the client is available on the Experimental branch & we have an Experimental server which will be online today shortly after this release for anyone to make use of. The Dedi server files for v1.10.5 will be available from next week on the experimental branch.
- With the public release, we will wipe our Official Servers.
