Once an Electric Extractor is placed on a mineral deposit, players could connect it to a new building called a Drone Hub. The hub would dispatch transport drones that automatically collect extracted ore and deliver it to a storage container selected by the player. The purpose is not to increase mining speed or resource generation. The extractor would work exactly as it does today. This feature would only automate transportation after players have already invested in exploration, electricity, infrastructure, and late-game technology. To keep it balanced, the system could include: - High crafting cost. - High power consumption. - Limited operating range. - Limited cargo capacity per trip. - One drone serving only a few extractors. I believe this fits naturally with Icarus, which already features electric extractors, power grids, batteries, water systems, farming, and other forms of automation. At the moment, maintaining multiple extractors often means making repetitive trips just to move resources. This doesn't make the game harder, only more time-consuming. A drone logistics system would reward players who build advanced industrial bases without affecting the survival experience of the early or mid game. I believe this feature would be a natural extension of Icarus' existing technology progression, giving players a rewarding logistics system once they have invested heavily in power, infrastructure, and mining operations. Thank you for considering this suggestion! Kind regards, zZefouu An Icarus end-game grinder. sug_zusi44urwvvkntd 2026-07-17T14:32:08Z 2026-07-17T16:27:22Z When launching the mission "Flatline" on Styx as an operation (Open World), the timer starts counting down immediately. When playing Flatline as a mission, the timer waits for the prospector to interact with the Biological Containment Pod. Depending on the prospector's location and the difficulty of the OW when the operation is started, the timer may fully elapse before they reach the destination. sug_0ymyoswefaqqah0 2026-07-14T13:34:22Z 2026-07-17T09:44:39Z Since a take all button already exists, why not expand on it? I suggest adding a deposit all button that transfers all eligible items from your inventory into the currently opened container. I often find myself moving items from one storage container to another frustrating, as transferring one item at a time is very tedious. The take all button already saves a lot of time when emptying containers, so having the opposite function would be a great quality-of-life improvement. To make it even more useful, players could lock individual inventory slots to prevent those items from being transferred accidentally. By default, the hotbar slots could be locked to avoid depositing tools and weapons, with the option to unlock the entire slot if desired. This would be a simple but valuable QoL feature that complements existing features like sort inventory, making storage management much faster and less repetitive. sug_lftqaholccqazut 2026-07-14T16:08:28Z 2026-07-17T11:22:32Z When the ice build pieces take damage, the model gets replaced with the Stone Curved Buildings. It seems it's only caused after storms, though, as meleeing the pieces doesn't seem to reproduce the same effect. Both build pieces shown in the screenshot are at 40 HP; the minimum the ice building pieces will deteriorate to. Might only be the curved roof pieces, as the walls seem to have the correct mesh. Haven't tested all ice build pieces. [v154111] sug_bfydyx2d81y341a 2026-07-14T16:27:23Z 2026-07-17T11:53:25Z In the tech tree, when hovering over a blueprint or blueprint point, the required materials are not shown if the recipe includes a "Tag Crafting" resource. Exceptions seem to be seeds, probably because it's a real "Item," whereas the tags don't seem to be. Examples include the Omni Animal Feed, which uses the "Raw Meat" and "Vegetable" tags, and Silage, which uses the "Grain" tag. Also includes things like the hot drinks "Water Container". sug_wtt674zmaepeev6 2026-07-14T18:13:19Z 2026-07-17T11:46:30Z The Organic Extractor fails to retain any biofuel that should be stored in the tank if it is picked up and moved elsewhere. Based on the UI elements in the inventory, I would expect the deployable to retain any biofuel when picked up. sug_1oli3f3d7xcquh9 2026-07-15T16:47:37Z 2026-07-17T10:23:05Z Instead of having the actual comment for the Haulier envirosuit, its replaced by the Bulwark's description, which is the complete opposite of the Haulier. sug_twscbkcwggbythq 2026-07-15T17:32:21Z 2026-07-17T10:26:27Z While on some prospect the Electric Deterrent works most of the time, I’m noticing my new prospect, it doesn’t work at all. It’s powered on, I can see the protected circles on the map, but the aggressive creatures are ignoring its presence. I’m on the latest expansion and the game is updated. sug_ttmjmv4iykqywu0 2026-07-15T23:58:21Z 2026-07-17T11:56:57Z For the wood door, the cross brace is the wrong direction to provide proper support, the bottom of the cross-brace should be on the hinge side of the door to allow proper support. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s18JHq7gBhA for explanation. sug_vwt8u2yplvoeatl 2026-07-16T21:27:52Z 2026-07-17T10:57:47Z The in the game files but unimplemented t4 smoker and t4 butchering table came up in disgusting last night, and I threw out an off the cuff suggestion of cooking whole animals with an included picture from an asterix and obelix feast. the idea proved to be quite popular so I figured I'd put it in as an official suggestion. The basic framework would be hauling animal corpses to the t4 butcher table to prepare it, then you would chuck it in smoker with whatever ingredients to produce the cooked product. There had been the suggestion of variable buffs depending on what sort of sauce you cook it with, though that could quickly cause unwieldy recipe bloat. A workaround for that would be a higher-tier salting station that can apply sauce effect as an additional buff to the item. sug_m8p8hsfpqxfhbmf 2026-07-16T22:05:27Z 2026-07-17T10:10:19Z If you aggro wild bees, either from a cave or a tree, they will follow and attack no matter the distance until they are killed. The bees should be clamped to a radius around their hive, much like vespers were in a recent update. sug_p9olp6cmyec0wnh 2026-07-16T22:16:07Z 2026-07-17T11:06:19Z Organic Extractor's tooltip says that it breaks down organic matter (foods/plants), but sticks, oil and wood are not processed. These are able to to be turned into biofuel in the T3 and T4 composters, so it would be reasonable to expect they would work in the T5 version. sug_russobwetftikb5 2026-07-17T03:07:29Z 2026-07-17T11:11:50Z As the title says - A request to undo or add a toggle to 'allow' pouches to have no weight. The community adored it, was aware it was a glitch, but we loved it and would like a feature or option for it to remain even if it breaks the balance a little (like steel screws, its a QUALITY OF PLAYER LIFE thing). sug_3znstif44ze8avk 2026-07-13T17:48:40Z 2026-07-14T10:37:30Z A new Completionist Omni Gear reward system could give long-term Workshop progression a meaningful payoff. By unlocking every item in a Workshop category, players would earn a special Omni version of that category that combines the bonuses of all unlocked items in that category. As in: - Unlock all helmets? Earn the Omni Helmet. - Unlock all pickaxes? Earn the Omni Pickaxe. - Unlock all knives? Earn the Omni Knife. You get the idea... This would apply to armor (including armor set bonuses), envirosuits, backpacks, tools, weapons, and consumables. For example: If one Workshop helmet grants +10% movement speed, and another helmet grants +5% stamina regeneration, then the Omni Helmet would include both bonuses. The Omni item would not introduce entirely new effects; it would simply combine the bonuses from the items the player has already unlocked in that category. DLC Compatibility The Omni Gear should dynamically include bonuses from all Workshop items currently available to the player, including DLC-added gear. For example, if the player doesn't own Dangerous Horizons, the Omni Helmet won't include the bonuses provided by the Stabilization Helmet. Why This Would Be a Good Addition - Rewards completionists: players who invest time into unlocking every Workshop item gain a meaningful endgame reward. - Preserves progression: players still need to unlock each item first; the Omni item is earned through completion, not purchased immediately. - Adapts to DLC ownership: the reward naturally scales with the content a player owns. - Creates a true pinnacle item: Omni Gear would represent mastery of that Workshop category. Thanks for your time :D sug_0xphf0onughga3f 2026-07-13T18:01:02Z 2026-07-14T10:37:43Z After uninstalling three cupboards full of stuff, I decided it would be a bright idea to go to the main menu and look at the things I could buy with my previously aquired exotics, since i have totally forgot to do so beforehand. After browsing for a while, I reloaded the save and BAM. Abracadabra, all my save's work is just gone. Don't know if its a bug or optimization feature, but if its the second option, I think its better to just add a button that just cleans up all the junk such as overflow bags with a confirmation popup. sug_f2j4occiuhzfjtv 2026-07-13T13:54:47Z 2026-07-13T15:13:35Z In some of my open worlds, I play with 3 friends, and each of us has 2 or 3 tame raptors. Finding the one you are looking for in the crowd of moving animals is a time consuming challenge. Some form of color identification would be very helpful (different saddle colors, collars that display the name of the animal, some sort of sign that could be attached to the animal, etc.). sug_tdfznyw7dskfzp2 2026-07-13T14:22:39Z 2026-07-13T15:18:58Z When you eliminate all ennemies in a tower, the only thing you can obtain is what is in their corpses, which is fairly minimal, and in my view, not worth the effort. The prospector should be able to pick additionnal items from the tower, like solar panels or ladders. sug_vcq7srzcqzmqw9x 2026-07-11T17:22:37Z 2026-07-17T11:56:22Z The new foundry does not count for missions requiring one. Such as Promethus:Miasmic mission. Mission is impossible to complete as of now as old foundry cannot be crafted, and new one does not tick the requirement for the mission. Also the mini electric furnaces that can be obtained on an earlier Prometheus mission also do not count as electric furnaces for mission required items. sug_1ctbkszdszqkwm7 2026-07-12T04:33:05Z 2026-07-13T12:30:15Z Just finished the mission that unlocks the agriculture trader npc, their marker appeared on the map, I logged off for the night, come back and the trader has disappeared? sug_nmtt63pbxl5n10x 2026-07-12T12:07:35Z 2026-07-13T12:38:46Z I started an operation near a landing pad but instead of using that, the mission supply dropped in the middle of a giant tree on Styx and I couldn't access it. Resupply requests didn't do anything since I could even send the pod back up. sug_u966qmdwv2wuoui 2026-07-12T16:05:32Z 2026-07-13T13:37:01Z Could we make the glass have fewer shadow particles? I want to use the reinforced glass walls but I can't because the shadows lag me so badly. I have my settings turned down very low too. Just like the haze in Prometheus kills me I can't play on the map sadly, even though I adore it. sug_xuxzcpshxpthi0t 2026-07-12T18:20:09Z 2026-07-13T13:41:05Z I have a suggestion, in the cosmetic:qol area Please make the tooltip for the norex weapons fit to the screen. I cannot see the top bar with the percentage numbers on my 1920 x 1080 display sug_i8ddl0axkie9gof 2026-07-12T21:44:30Z 2026-07-13T14:44:55Z {Bug} Had a juvenile follow me back to my abode, had all the items needed to tame, set to not follow, closed door to my abode and upon opening the door, juvenile was gone. Had this happen 3 times in a row now. sug_gwxnpwhws3dl5mc 2026-07-12T22:46:26Z 2026-07-13T15:23:10Z I've noticed that automatic firearms tend to either fire an additional round, or fires what I call a false/ghost round when tap firing. sug_5ze9fzuvdflj5z9 2026-07-13T05:26:22Z 2026-07-13T15:24:05Z This is an old but persistent bug that has finally driven me crazy enough to report. Seems to happen most frequently on the first shot - bullet goes straight through animals. Happens frequently to my friends (no matter who is hosting, dedicated servers, etc.) - playing on open worlds. Notice it a lot with automatic guns and even often with rifles. Adding some alt text to help people find this issue: first shot misses, bullet misses, shoot through animals sug_p2styxzylr1xgkd 2026-07-10T12:22:19Z 2026-07-11T11:18:27Z I got an idea if we can add a pack of copper nails and a pack of iron nails to workshop. Perhaps under refined resources or other category. sug_flzwellyelrrl1o 2026-07-10T12:23:39Z 2026-07-11T11:32:47Z Adding a pack of tree sap to workshop resource pack. sug_vtitt8djvidijpo 2026-07-10T15:58:04Z 2026-07-11T11:38:59Z Enable snapping floors and halfpieces halfway up wall pieces - will allow 'shelves' sug_hb5aaqcxxvregmn 2026-07-10T16:09:17Z 2026-07-11T11:39:50Z Shared experience for crafting should be the same, or a lot closer, for crafting. The large volume of precursor materials can lead to needing to manage leveling and is a nuisance. sug_u4vaswdpx8xp1te 2026-07-10T18:32:23Z 2026-07-11T11:08:25Z I don't know if anyone else is aware of this, but Jackhammer has some kind of bug that puts an extreme strain on the server, and the warning messages are literally flooding the server log every thousandth of a second. (I've attached a screenshot) This happens every time I pick up Jackhammer into the hands. No other item behaves this way. (A chainsaw doesn't behave like that) sug_nuyc3rltrztrpwa 2026-07-10T21:19:41Z 2026-07-17T12:47:25Z sug_da6o14e0sjpbdxn 2026-07-11T02:23:37Z 2026-07-11T11:43:35Z When you have multiple tames, may it be mount or pets, it can be really a pain in the *** to control them all. It would be really interresting to have a system to mass control them. 1- A system like a whistle to issu a mass command like "Follow" or "Stay" or "Agressive" and it put all near tames in that state. 2- A system like a laser pointer that make all tames that have an attack attack the target or move at a precise place. 3- Be able to control only the mount and "agressive" pets (wolf, and others) and not the farm animal or cat. It would make the tame build a lot easyer to fun to play! sug_yxlzcbmsi2votgp 2026-07-11T09:37:39Z 2026-07-11T11:45:52Z With the new foundry model, people will be tempted to destroy their old foundry to build the new. At present, it does not refund *any* resources when you delete the old foundry. Can't recall if the old/original one was more expensive than it is now, but still nice to get some resources back. sug_vdaaq24zsg7xjcr 2026-07-10T03:33:31Z 2026-07-10T10:27:09Z I have yet to report a bug because I get flashbanged and hurt my eyes opening the bug report site. How do you have this past 2018? I will report more of the game breaking bugs Ive run into once I can bear to look at this longer sug_kpablz8dwf5hsbo 2026-07-10T05:25:22Z 2026-07-10T10:30:12Z When Dangerous Horizons DLC was introduced to the game and the various NPC missions added to bring the total number of Styx missions to 28 from 24, the Steam achievement count for all Styx mission completions were not adjusted from 24 to 28 it appears. The in game Accolades shows 28 total missions for the in game achievement, but Steam rewards the achievement on their client side at 24 missions completed. sug_0lhiuxfr50w4vkw 2026-07-10T08:34:18Z 2026-07-10T10:31:54Z Resurgent Head Armor , Resurgent Chest Armor , and Resurgent Arm Armor have extra spaces at the end of their names. sug_x5vgdo5hh2gha97 2026-07-08T15:11:09Z 2026-07-09T18:33:12Z I think adding a way to temporarily "Zero" out your account. AND I MEAN TEMPORARILY. To help teach new players without having an additional number of talent points. I tried to teach a 100% new player with my account that has approximately 1400 hours and almost every mission completed, they disliked that my character had so many more talents than them. so it was more difficult to teach them from scratch, also due to the bonuses from my beastiary I was leveling up with a new character much faster than them. sug_j74oaav1qhqapq2 2026-07-08T20:30:18Z 2026-07-09T18:36:50Z Simple Creature deterrent is not working properly. Have placed two around the base and the crocodiles and jaguars are coming within the radius in an outrageous number. sug_vpet6pkuxfplwsm 2026-07-08T13:29:33Z 2026-07-08T15:10:14Z Snow wolves are appearing as skinned when alive, only fixes after I kill them sug_4rrnnvjttfcby4j 2026-07-08T10:45:36Z 2026-07-08T11:25:48Z another question about the effects. It started raining, I didn't leave the house, but are my clothes and weapons/tools in drops of water? Why would this be happening? why can't this effect be formed after being exposed to rain sug_equncvyhyrz6rvt 2026-07-07T15:20:54Z 2026-07-08T11:25:58Z Snow Mesh for the Roof Peak Connector is on bottom of the structure. The snow then falls to the floor inside the building. sug_yc1anhtrllri46s 2026-07-07T21:10:45Z 2026-07-08T15:07:07Z After completing the Relocated operation on Olympus (open world, PC) the five Zebras keep their zebra-head map icon and are visible at an infinite distance on the compass. It would be good if, after the mission is completed, the zebras would revert to the same arrow icon with the same view distance as all other tamed creatures and mounts. sug_puqrpn0kc5ta5pi 2026-07-07T21:25:28Z 2026-07-08T15:07:32Z At this point, the game is pretty much broken. Rendering is not happening. Animals dissappear. Audio glitches and the game freezes when you head back to station after finishing a mission. Simple fact; this game is struggling at even giving us a playable version. Just data dump the PC version so at least we can be mad and have the entire game rather than a shell of whatever this is called. One literally can't play the game. Have to close and reopen the game due to items not shifting from person to storage. So many issues it's absurd. Can't play for 5 mins without a bug showing itself. A nice data dump of what PC can do would be nice so at least I can play the game. sug_5qmfuqtk9v7t13h 2026-07-08T05:05:10Z 2026-07-08T11:29:33Z looking for buildable spaces underwater with the ability to pump the water out of rooms, growable or farmable kelp or other underwater gameplay elements. sug_ammb66jnxit2bhj 2026-07-06T23:12:38Z 2026-07-07T11:15:14Z Since Outposts are a way for Dev's to help fund development. Id actually like a character that can only use outposts in a way to remove the reduced experience point earnings and play these outposts more when a more relaxing/experimenting game session is needed. Also please give them unlimited talent points for testing talent point some of us never actually bother using, to see if we might actually use them in a future open world character sug_5m6kdor2rvhzobj 2026-07-07T00:20:26Z 2026-07-07T11:27:58Z It would be extremely nice if connected rainwater tanks when full diverted excess water into storage tanks. Personally, I can't find a true reason to use barrels (except looks) over more rainwater tanks when the barrels can only be filled via a pump sug_lbml9wti8zsztdl 2026-07-07T01:23:17Z 2026-07-07T11:27:35Z With the planned addition of Transmorg armor sets (vanity slots), I think it would be really neat if certain blueprints or items could be tied to achievements. For example, giving prospectors the ability to make a "Cowboy Hat" with the achievement "Future Oil Barron" would be really cool. I do know there's a similar upvote called "[Suggestion] Achievements and generally accolades to start giving rewards". sug_m8weh5tv5cxyrfg 2026-07-07T02:07:50Z 2026-07-07T11:26:37Z Similar to the weapons and armor stands, create a shelf with one or two storage slots that displays whatever you put into those slots on the shelf. You could have small shelves that display just one item, or larger shelves or display cases that display multiple items. sug_5mmaphvoqfq3f5j 2026-07-04T00:39:33Z 2026-07-06T14:48:47Z Two of my tamed animals ( a Chicken named Mac Attack, and a wolf named Fluffy Mcgee) both disappeared from the game for no reason. I dont know if they glitch trough the ground or something but I am extremely upset about them disappearing. I only had Mac Attack for about i think two weeks but Fluffy McGee I had since almost the beginning of playing the game, he was already level 34 and I was very attached to him. If there is some way you can fix this and stop it from happening again that would be much appreciated and if there is anyway I can get Fluffy back i would be over the moon but I understand if thats not possible. Thank you.
