Post-launch development plans
The launch announcement discusses online design challenges with voting, additional transparent fabrics, proper controller support and mobile/Switch ports. Treat these as planned work. A plan is not a release date or a reason to download an unofficial port.
The team also said near-term updates would address launch bugs and add some fabrics and accessories. Use the official news feed for later announcements; this page records the specific sources reviewed on its stated date.
How to report a remaining problem
State your installed build, operating system, commission and the last action that worked. Include a screenshot showing the affected station or requirement. Explain whether the problem happened before or after updating.
Use the Steam discussions or the community linked from the official press kit. This independent wiki can correct its guides, but cannot repair the game, restore a save or process a Steam purchase.
