• Update Lua documentation: Document that functions with a faction type argument can also get passed any entity, component or item slot from which the faction will be used from

• The rules regarding the OrderItem functions have changed. ManualOrder will no longer automatically equip a component unless the new AutoEquipComponent is specified. And, not specifying ManualOrder will no longer reduce the requested amount by any existing amounts (going forward the caller will have to reduce the requested amount if desired).

Hello Operators,

1.0.17871 — Now Live on Main Branch

After a few weeks on the experimental branch, this update is finally making its way to everyone. The biggest chunk of work went into the behavior editor: you can now search argument values, add freestanding comment nodes, copy/paste individual values, and drag arguments straight onto the "Add Parameter" box. We also added and reworked a bunch of behavior instructions to make automation logic nicer to work with overall. On top of that there's a solid performance improvement to proximity component processing, a big pile of bug fixes, and voice acting credits snuck in there too.

Huge thanks to everyone who played on the experimental branch and sent feedback. You helped catch a lot of stuff that would have otherwise slipped through, and this update is better for it. Now go enjoy it!

Hello Operators,

Over the past weeks, multiple updates have been available on the Experimental branch, where many of you helped us test and shape them with your feedback.

We’ve now bundled all of these changes together, and they’re rolling out to the Main branch.

Thank you so much for your incredible support, especially around 1.0 launch, and for all the reviews you’ve already shared. It truly means a lot to us and helps the game reach more players.

If you haven’t left a review yet, we’d really appreciate it if you took a moment to share your thoughts on Steam.

Hello, Operator!

It has been a long journey. DESYNCED first launched into Early Access in August 2023, and since then the game has grown tremendously thanks to your feedback. Over the past few years we have been constantly improving systems, adding new features, expanding the world, and refining the experience together with the community.

🚀 Today we are very happy to finally release Desynced 1.0!

This is a major milestone for the team. It marks the point where the game has reached a level of gameplay and content we feel confident sharing with a wider audience.

At the same time, 1.0 is not the end of development. We are continuing to work on new missions, additional world content, UX and QoL improvements, and further refinements to core systems such as behaviors. Many of these ideas are already in planning. We will also share a new roadmap after 1.0, so stay tuned.

🌟Please support us by leaving a Review🌟

⚠️ Desynced has changed a lot since its EA launch ⚠️

If the last time you played was two years ago, do not expect the exact same game. Many systems have evolved, new mechanics were added, balance has changed, and the overall experience has been refined across multiple major updates.

Starting a fresh save and rediscovering the game from the beginning is the best way to experience everything that has been added.

🔽 Below you will find the complete list of everything included in this update 🔽

📡 Desynced 1.0 Patch Notes

✨ Steam Achievements and Steam Trading Cards

We’ve added full Steam Achievements support plus Steam Trading Cards, so you can earn badges, emoticons, and wallpapers while showing off your progress.

*Steam Achievements are already available. Trading Cards, badges, emoticons, and profile backgrounds are currently pending approval from Steam, so they may appear with a small delay but should become available soon™.

✨ New Game Plus Feature

After finishing the story, you unlock the ability to start a fresh run from a different perspective, changing how you approach the world from the very start.

✨ Replay Improvements

The game now remembers the state of the game when it or an active mod was last updated. This "snapshot" state will be used as the starting point for playing back a replay to prevent the replay playback from going out of sync. There is now a menu button while saving which allows for replay data and snapshot data to be removed from the save. It also allows replay recording to be re-started at any point.

✨ Language Support Update

For various reasons we had to remove official support for Polish, Czech and Portuguese for the 1.0 release. However, we were not happy with removing them completely, so these languages are still available unofficially in-game.

Much of the text remains human translated, and the languages can still be selected in the game. They are simply no longer listed as officially supported on the Steam store page.

• Rewritten translations for the languages German, Spanish, Japanese, Korean, Russian, Chinese (Simplified) and Chinese (Traditional)

• Replace "View Distance" drop down with a slider (with an increased highest setting)

• Fix "Get Unit Power Info" behavior instruction to not always use self

• Fix inter-multi-blueprint unit/building references getting lost when modifying the number part of the register

• Fix drag-and-drop possibly getting stuck if dragging over a UI element that is removed in the same frame as the mouse button is released

• Fix bot up-and-down bobbing and sun movement appearing jittery when playing beyond a few thousand in-game days (hit floating point accuracy limit in calculation)

Modding

• Allow mods to overwrite/extend Action, Delay and Chat listener functions by calling org = Listener:Unbind("Name") to unbind and receive the original function then binding it again with function Listener.Name(...)

• Disallow array style initializers for noise params (elevation_params, etc.) as done in some package:setup_scenario functions because it breaks code that accesses fields by name (frequency, scale, etc.)

• Make Lua API function component:RequestStateMove return if movement is needed but the entity is in path-blocked state after having tried the exact same movement request

• Fix a rare crash on Lua code hot reloading

• Add support for specifying a color attribute in rich text tags

• Add support for variable arguments on behavior instructions

• Change loading of mods with conflicting IDs to prefer the path with the newest modification date

• Change error on ID conflict during mod loading to be clear about which one is loaded and why

• Add Lua API function Tool.MatchLocalizedRichText to match strings in text potentially containing rich-text tags

• When running the game in mod development mode, log an error if a localized string has a hash collision with another one

• Lua API: Introduce new allocation-free function which gets multiple register fields in a single call: entity:GetRegisterData, component:GetRegisterData, register:GetData

• Lua API: New function which returns a register in Lua table form: register:GetTable

• Add parameter to control of the amount of random translations/height on visuals

• Make Shift+F7 reload not only textures and sounds but also GLB models from mods

Landscape Generation

• Adjust landscape generation to create more ramps onto the plateau. This can cause units and buildings located near the edge of the plateau (both on and off) to get moved when loading an old save.

Thank you for being part of this journey!

Whether you're starting your very first colony or returning to rebuild everything from scratch, 1.0 is a great moment to dive back into Desynced!

Good luck out there, operator 🤖

Enjoy the game!

🚀 We made it together!

Desynced launches into 1.0 on March 5

If you’ve been with us during Early Access, you already know how much Desynced has evolved.

Since its Early Access debut in 2023, the game has grown through four Major content updates, countless quality-of-life improvements, and ongoing refinements shaped directly by community feedback. Players experimented with fully programmable units, pushed systems further than we imagined, and helped turn Desynced into something truly unique within automation and strategy games.

📅 Today, we’re excited to share the next milestone:

Desynced will officially leave Early Access and launch into version 1.0 on March 5, 2026.

Reaching 1.0 is a huge step for both Stage Games and Forklift Interactive, but it doesn’t mean we’re slowing down. Development continues beyond launch, and your feedback will remain a core part of shaping the future of Desynced.

Whether you’ve been optimizing drone fleets since day one or are waiting for the right moment to jump in, we’re incredibly grateful to have you with us on this journey.

See you there!
