Space Engineers is a sandbox game about engineering, construction, exploration and survival in space and on planets. Players build space ships, space stations, planetary outposts of various sizes and uses (civil and military), pilot ships and travel through space to explore planets and gather resources to survive. Featuring both creative and survival modes, there is no limit to what can be built, utilized and explored. Space Engineers features a realistic, volumetric-based physics engine: everything in the game can be assembled, disassembled, damaged and destroyed. The game can be played either in single or multiplayer modes.

Report RSS Update 01.033 - Merge block, conversion of station to ship, news box in main men

Merge block has been added in Space Engineers; it allows you to permanently merge ships and stations of the same block size and in proper alignment. When a ship is merged with a station, ship becomes the station. Stations can be now converted to ships, but the blocks which are partially inside asteroids will get damaged or destroyed.

We also added a "news box" on the main menu screen, where you can get notified of anything that is new in the game and we have redesigned and upgraded our multi-player code; this results in a more stable multi-player with less lag.

maybe at some point they'll add in a type of "pirate" or "raider" as an option like they do with generated ships, only these ones seek you out.

Maybe something along the lines of a tiny "drone" something like a small square or circle with a machine gun or two
