Update 1.14.0 (Nintendo Switch - released July 24, 2024) Staying Afloat While Wurt and Winona hammer away on their own visions for the future, it seems the Constant's sea has seen some changes of its own.

Sunken Chests: added new exclusive loot - Surprising Seeds and Archaic Boats. Marotters: new creatures found on the coastline. Additional Pirate Raid behavior: they can sometimes be found post-raid, carrying loot. Kelp Boat Patch, signs of Powder Monkeys territory on sea stacks, new ocean set pieces, a new Pearl trade, and a new Salt Lick made of actual salt! New Skins! Who says you can't always get what you want? As always, these skins also can be weaved with spool and drop in-game, but see the spoiler below for more info on the new skins available in this update. Klei Points! https://accounts.klei.com/link/ShiftySeaSwindlers And that's all for now! We hope that you all enjoy the update.

Hello! Today we are releasing Bonechill Quarry. In this new location, you'll find all sorts of new content: a new boss, miniboss, enemies, equipment, decor items, powers, and more. A huge thank you to everybody who participated in the beta and helped us with bug reports and feedback. We very much appreciate all of the kind words and support. Thank you! About Early Access and Rotwood. Klei has operated and refined nearly a dozen titles through pre-launch testing and Early Access. Our process has always been to put down a solid, enjoyable experience that is worth playing for the price you paid for it and then we refine from there based on player feedback and what it is specifically that we are trying to accomplish with that game. Rotwood is not a roguelike. It's not a brawler. It's not a souls-like and it's not a dungeon crawler. While Rotwood can be described using these terms and it certainly contains elements of each of them, it comes from a place of love for all these types of games, but it is not defined or limited by them. Klei, as a studio attempts to do something interesting and new with our games. We take interesting ideas and see where we can go with them. But this can sometimes result in time needed to help us adapt the game we are trying to make so that it better communicates what we are trying to accomplish. This was true in 2012 and it is true now. To better communicate our vision we have two things coming for you soon. Shortly we will be sharing a more descriptive roadmap as well as a sneak peek into our minds and the future of the game. Coming Soon! We're aiming for a teaser update before the end of August. This update will bring a new "Super Frenzy" system for the first hunt. A Super Frenzy is when the game begins to change up gameplay to be significantly more difficult requiring not only tuned gear, but also a deeper understanding of the combat mechanics and tactics. With the game only having the lower half of the game present, much of the difficulty and power progression is being condensed at the lower levels. This result is a more grindy experience with overall less progression happening in shorter time periods than there will be when more systems and content are present. Many systems that existed in the playtest version of the game are still coming as support systems for these different progression mechanics. Please read below for notes about what our goal is with this Hunt. Save files Save files are NOT transferrable from the Beta Branch. Due to changes made during the beta, transferring the save from the beta branch to live will irreversibly break your save. Please DO NOT move your save. We will leave the beta branch open for 7 days in order for you to finish out your previous save if you like. Bonechill Quarry patch notes (623234)

We've revised temperature mechanics for Duplicants and critters to make things simpler and more interesting. We've also introduced the option to mix in asteroids and biomes from one or more DLCs when making a new game, so you can scramble the cosmos at will! The "Scramble DLC" tool works for The Frosty Planet Pack and future additions to the ONI universe. Additionally, we're releasing a free update for the base game today: It includes the temperature mechanics revisions mentioned above, plus the new elements, UI improvements, and more. What's in this DLC? A brand-new icy starting world. New critters: Flouncy Floxes! Behemoth Bammoths! Sweet-toothed Spigot Seals! Three new biomes: Ice Cave, Cool Pool and Nectar. New plants: Pikeapple Bush, Alveo Vera, Sherberry Plant, Plume Squash, Bonbon Tree, and Idylla Flower. New buildings: Wood Heater, Snow Tile, Deep Fryer, and more!

This hotfix for The Frosty Planet Pack Beta contains some resource loop changes and tuning adjustments. Full notes: Changes and Improvements All versions Added a Wood to Refined Carbon recipe to the Kiln. Newly constructed buildings will now take on the temperature of their build materials, if those build materials were less than 45°C. Instant build mode considers a material’s temperature transitions when selecting its default temperature. (i.e. Mercury buildings won’t melt instantly.) Frosty Planet Pack Small increases to Flox dirt and wood production. Reduced the Flox's Pikeapple consumption amount. Significant increase to mass of the Bammoth Patty. Adjusted Bammoth Patty recipe output ratios in the Rock Crusher. Adjusted Bammoth eggs care package to appear after a later cycle count.

Fixes All versions Fixed crash selecting a Critter Cargo Bay. Fixed a bug that accidentally caused the Liquid Tepidizer to adapt the new slider changes implemented on the Space Heater. Fixed an issue where Arbor Trees did not drop seeds if they were harvested using liquids. Frosty Planet Pack only Fixed issue with the Bammoth and Bammini flickering in the Critter Cargo Bays. Starting a new game on a Ceres asteroid should no longer cause The Frosty Planet Pack setting in the Scramble DLCs menu to be turned off for subsequent new games if they were previously turned on.

This update for The Frosty Planet Pack Beta fixes some bugs, adjusts some tuning, and expands some functionality to integrate with the pack's new temperature mechanics. Full patch notes: Features Frosty Planet Pack Added Oxylite Sconce building. Changes and Improvements All versions The Ice Maker can now optionally produce Snow. Increased the load capacity, cooling strength, and power consumption of the Ice Maker, but reduced relative heat production. Added a Cooling Water status to the Ice Maker to show when work is in progress. Research button now shows progress of active research. Consuming Shellfish now contributes to the progress of the Carnivore Achievement. Renamed Cold Scolding to Frostbite. Updated localizations. Temperature changes Hot Tub and Sauna now provide 3 cycles of Frost Resistance. Spicy Tofu and Curried Beans now provide 1 cycle of Frost Resistant: Spicy Diet effect. Buildings that provide immunity to Chilly Surroundings and Soggy Feet now display Frost Resistance in the Effects region in their UI. Space Heater now has a slider that players can use to adjust the power consumption. Space Heater now has a power consumption range of 120-240W, with a corresponding heat production range of 18-36KDTUs. Selecting one of a food's Nutritional Effects in the database should now scroll to that specific effect on the Nutritional Effect page. Updated the background art used for Gas Range blueprints in the Supply Closet. Spaced Out! only Folia and Quagmiris asteroids now support the Geoactive world trait. This will cause world traits on those seeds to change. Frosty Planet Pack Corrected specific heat capacity of Tallow being about 1000x too low. Increased amount of Plume Squash that Bammoths consume, and slightly reduced the amount of meat they drop. World Remix: When the Moo Asteroid is replaced, the world that replaces it will now include a Chlorine Gas vent. Biome Remix: Prioritized adding biomes to the starting and nearby asteroids before mixing in distant asteroids. Updated artwork for new space destination (base game) and space POIs (Spaced Out!) used in Scramble DLC. Added sound to the Bonbon Tree's interact animation. Research Portal can now be prioritized. Disabled Geodormant on Spaced Out!-style Ceres cluster. Consuming Deep Fried Meat, Pemmican, Fish Taco, Shellfish or Shellfish Tempura will now contribute to the progress of Carnivore Achievement. The Lumen Quartz chore type is now Dig instead of Uproot. Updated icon for status item and menu button. Hooked up additional lore entries. Renamed Pre-Plastic to Plastic Monomer. Added an entry for Plastic Monomer to the database. Renamed Bonbon Gourd to Bonbon Tree. Bonbon Trees now show status "Harvest ready" whenever they are full of Nectar. Bonbon Tree storage is now visible in the UI. Increased mass of Wood Heater, preventing rapid runaway temperature increase. Improved the quality of Shellfish Tempura and Fish Taco recipes, and added a Sleet Wheat requirement. Adjusted Tallow requirements. Pikeapple can now spoil.

Spaced Out! only Removed base game Data Bank from the sandbox spawner tool. Fixed Cosmic Storm meteor difficulty incorrectly using Spring Showers parameters. Frosty Planet Pack Sherberry Plants and Lumen Quartz start at colder temperatures. Manually harvesting the Bonbon Tree now plays the Nectar extraction animation properly respecting the number of branches currently on the tree. Fixed a bug where interrupting the manual Nectar extraction from the Bonbon Tree would cause the trunk to not return back to its harvest-ready animation. Fixed an offset in the harvest icons on the branches of the Bonbon Tree. Fixed a bug where the branches of the Bonbon Tree were not showing wild growth and domestic growth values in the Requirements section in the UI. Fixed an issue where wild planted Bonbon Trees were displaying an incorrect amount when describing the speed of Nectar production. Fixed a bug where individual Bonbon Tree branches were being counted as plants when evaluating the number of plants in a room. Research Portal now counts as a light source that can fulfill room requirements. Nighttime music should no longer play forever when loading into a Ceres cluster during the night. Freyja should no longer disappear in the Main Menu Supply Closet after playing on a save without The Frosty Planet Pack content enabled. Fixed a visual bug so that when harvest ready Bonbon Trees get entombed, the trunk now shakes along with the leaves. Fixed Acoustic Art Panel collision box. Existing saves will have the prop in the incorrect location. Modding Re-added some methods and constructors in Database that mods were using to avoid breaking them. Added an obsolete version of DlcManager.IsContentActive to help mods transition to using the correct calls. This will be removed in the future.

Hi everyone, We're ready to start beta testing our upcoming DLC, The Frosty Planet Pack! This paid DLC centers around a glacial new starting world complete with brand-new biomes, critters, buildings, elements, plants, foods, a new trait and a new Duplicant. We've also tweaked Duplicants' and critters' reactions to extreme temperatures. Be among the first to explore it all by playing on the public_testing branch on Steam. This free testing period is open to anyone who owns the base game on Steam. We expect it to last at least three weeks, and will make an announcement about the full release timeline and pricing when we have more info. New biomes The new Ice Cave starting biome presents immediate thermal regulation and resource harvesting challenges, as elements are frozen solid. (The Duplicants aren't feeling so hot in there either.) The chilly Cool Pool biome nearby is peppered with craters full of Ethanol, while the snowy Nectar biome features a sweet new liquid resource that can be used as an alternative ingredient in Plastic production. New critters, a Duplicant, and other cool stuff New critters include the Flox—whose antlers can be harvested for Wood—and the rotund Spigot Seal. The latter provides Ethanol and a new element called Tallow, which can be used in the new Deep Fryer to produce one of the deep-fried meals we've added. We've also introduced the Bammoth, a woolly behemoth that produces shearable Reed Fiber. A new Duplicant named Freyja comes with the Frost Proof trait, and is better able to tolerate the frigid environment. Newly printed Duplicants from the existing cast may also possess this trait. Other notable new items include: an Ice Liquefier building, Wood Heater, snow and wood tiles, a new element called Cinnabar, edible and decor plants, plus a unique Printing Pod skin. DLC mixing We're introducing the ability to remix this DLC content into other asteroids when you start a new game. These settings can be customized in the "Scramble DLCs" tab in the destination selection screen. Anything else? Some content is still in the works and won't be accessible until the DLC's full release. A selection of the updated mechanics and improvements are being added to the base game (see patch notes for details). Lots to look forward to at every stage! Thanks for helping us test and tweak this new DLC before it goes on sale. You can submit your feedback here and report bugs here. Here's what you'll find in the beta so far: New Features in “The Frosty Planet Pack” New starting asteroid option called Ceres. New Biomes Ice Caves Starting Biome New Critter: Flox New Resource Plant: Pikeapple Bush New Resource Plant: Alveo Vera New Forage Plant: Sherberry Plant New Decor Plant: Idylla Flower New Element: Cinnabar Cool Pool Biome New Critter: Bammoth New Resource Plant: Plume Squash Plant New Decor Entity: Lumen Quartz Nectar Biome New Critter: Spigot Seal New Resource Plant: Bonbon Gourd New Element: Nectar New Buildings Wood Heater Ice Liquefier Snow Tile Wood Tile Deep Fryer Wood Block New Foods Squash Fries Fish Taco Deep Fried Steak Shellfish Tempura Pikeapple and Pikeapple Skewer Sherberry Plume Squash Pemmican Other new features Added a new Duplicant named Freyja. Added "Frost Proof" trait to make Duplicants immune to the "Chilly surroundings" effect. Added Icy Nectar Meteor Shower. Added Aurora borealis visuals to the backgrounds of Ceres worlds. New music “Ice Planet” and Ceres themed day and night stinger. New Points of Interest Frosty Planet Starting Base Research Portal Tiny Cottage Ceres Showroom Geo Vents Geothermal Heat Pump New Features in All Versions Added Scramble DLC worldgen options, allowing the ability to mix in DLC biomes, outer asteroids, and other content into non-DLC clusters when making a new game. Revised Duplicant temperature mechanics: Hyperthermia and Hypothermia diseases have been removed. Instead, Duplicants are now more vulnerable to Chilly Surroundings and Toasty Surroundings debuffs at temperatures outside their comfort range. Duplicant comfort range has been adjusted to approximately 0°C - 45°C in standard oxygen conditions. Duplicants now receive “Cold Scolding” damage when exposed to extremely cold external temperatures (approximately -90°C). High body heat loss will now disturb a sleeping Duplicant. Duplicants will now seek warming stations to remove the Chilly Surroundings status effect. Duplicants will now seek cooling stations to remove the Toasty Surroundings status effect. Warming stations remove and provide temporary immunity to Chilly Surroundings and Soggy Feet status effects. Cooling stations remove and provide temporary immunity to the Toasty Surroundings status effect. Space Heaters now function as Warming Stations. Water Coolers now function as Cooling Stations. The Warm Sweater has been replaced by the Warm Coat, which has a more effective insulation property. The Cool Vest has been removed from the game. Atmo suits now provide immunity to Chilly Surroundings and Toasty Surrounding effects. Revised critter temperature mechanics Rebalanced all critter comfort and livable temperature ranges. Critters with an internal temperature outside of their comfort ranges suffer a happiness penalty. Critters experiencing an external temperature outside of their livable range will gradually take damage. Critters now spawn at a comfortable internal temperature. Critters now show thought bubbles when they feel too cold or too warm. Temperature Overlay Improvements Added Heat Source and Heat Sink icons. Added a visual effect to objects with significant heat production. Added a slider-adjustable "Relative Temperature" sub-overlay to the Temperature Overlay screen. Changes and Improvements All versions Critters The Grooming Station now restores critter health. The Shearing Station now requires Raw Metals to be built, instead of Raw Minerals. Critters that eat plants directly can now eat plants planted in a Planter Box. Critters will now face the food they eat. Critters now remember which way they were facing when loading a save. Plants Harvest Ready plants will no longer change their animations to wilted even if their growth requirements are no longer met. Tree branches "Harvest Ready" status item tooltip now mentions "branch" instead "plant" UI Buildings melting will now trigger a notification. Some materials, such as Lead, are now deprioritized for automatic building material selection, even if they have the highest quantity in supply. Small adjustments to UI layout of overlay legends, including addition of tooltips. Changed the "All" header in storage bins to "All Standard." Certain special resources are moved to a different header below to prevent unintentional automatic storage when discovered. Added copy settings feature to the Rehydrator. A building's information screen now displays a description of the base version of the selected building, rather than the selected blueprint. The selected blueprint's description is viewable in the Blueprint tab of the sidescreen. The Research screen now resets its search filter each time it is opened. Clearing the Research screen filter will now also clear "All" and "Next" filters. Added a button to the details screen of selected resources to quick-open that resource in the Resources menu. Revised Planter Box side screen to show more options at once. Added tooltips. Added building description to the tooltip for the default blueprint of a building. Added the Very Dim illumination threshold between Pitch Black and Dim. Removed Dark. Added some text feedback when build material is automatically changed due to insufficient resources. Added The Frosty Planet Pack DLC logo to the main menu. Replaced the Enable/Disable DLC button with a smaller toggle. Database Changed the name for Lumber to "Wood." Removed Wood from the Elements category and merged its contents into the Wood entry in the Industrial Ingredients category. Added "Produced By" and "Applications" info for Reed Fiber and Balm Lily Flower. Added Shearing Station info to critters & resources that generate them (e.g. Bammoths sheared to produce Reed Fiber, Floxes sheared to produce Wood, etc.) Added image and Applications info to Tonic Root page. Changed how the database shows the diet of critters that consume plants directly to now show the percentage of the growth of the plant being consumed per cycle instead of "the units of the plant being consumed per cycle." Added links between related Tip and Video entries. Plants in the database now show their product produced in "mass per cycle or calories per cycle" Duplicants Sleeping Duplicants will now tolerate up to 500 lux before being disturbed by the brightness. Duplicants who fall asleep due to their stamina reaching zero will now show an Unscheduled Nap status item. Duplicants with zero stamina will now prefer to go to their assignment bed instead of passing out on the floor. Duplicants will now consider additional items to pull from nearby storages for fetch errands. (This will improve quality of life for non-absorbing items like dried food packages). Duplicants no longer do a "gross food" emote after eating food with germs on it, as it was often misinterpreted as a response to the quality of the food. Handy and Unconstructive traits are now mutually exclusive. Buildings The Polymer Press now accepts Nectar as an input equivalent to Petroleum. Increased the Decor value of ice sculptures. Insulated Super Computer, Water Cooler, and Electrolyzer storages to prevent contents from freezing in cold environments. Ladder, Cot, Outhouse, and Drywall can now optionally be built out of Wood. Storage Bin, Liquid Conduit, Gas Conduit, and Wash Basin can now optionally be built with raw metals. It is now possible to specify which kind of food a Rehydrator can rehydrate in the sidescreen. Liquid Vents now show animated drips in the color of liquid they are outputting. Elements Added Cinnabar element. Added Nectar element. Added Tallow element. Mercury is no longer disabled. Moved Sucrose from Spaced Out! to the base game. Removed several unused and/or unintentional elements from the database and sandbox tool. Spaced Out! only Asteroid details panel now displays a more accurate representation of biomes in the world. Only applies to new saves. Fixes All versions Performance Improved sound performance. Improved performance of plants vulnerable to atmospheric pressure. Rehydrator Rehydrated food no longer ignores consumable restrictions. Duplicants can now pull more than 1 dried food package from a storage per fetch chore (max 10, also applies to eggs). Duplicants will no longer ignore available Dehydrators in situations where the nearer Rehydrator is unavailable (either reserved, in use or out of resources). Fixed issue where Rehydrator could get stuck in situations such as a power outage. Prioritize critter brain updates when they are spawned in order for them to have gravity applied. Fixed Biobot continuing to work when their battery runs out. Biobots now drop their inventory when their in-progress chore is interrupted, if that current chore involves them adding an item to their inventory. Fixed attack tool toggling priority when used on a critter that has already been marked for attack. Fixed a bug affecting the precision of meter bars on buildings. Fixed issue causing Research screen to sometimes cancel the wrong research tasks when clicking on a mid-tier item. Fixed issue causing element consumption status items to sometimes fail to appear. Fixed an issue where saves with a large number of plants would incorrectly calculate their atmospheric conditions. Fixed a bug where using the Harvest tool to mark a plant with "Disable Harvest" was not canceling an ongoing harvest. Fixed a bug preventing Duplicants from equipping their assigned clothing or suits when they were interrupted en route. Fixed a bug where Pips eating a fully grown branch were causing the user's "Harvest when ready" setting to become false. When a critter is injured it now says "Critter" instead of "Duplicant" in their status item tooltip. Art buildings completed and painted/sculpted no longer show "Needs to be worked by a duplicant" in their description if a Duplicant already worked on it. Fixed a bug where paintings, sculptures and the Fossil Quarry stopped updating their description properly after the art was completed or the Ancient Specimen story trait was completed. Fixed strings for construction materials that weren't showing up correctly in the database for Buildings/Furniture. This includes: Obsidian, Ceramic, Plastic and Diamond. Fixed Slicksters navigating certain paths incorrectly after tile deconstruction. Fixed a crash that could happen loading a save with a move errand. Fixed issue preventing a Duplicant's default clothing from actually insulating them until some non-default clothing was unequipped. Fixed issue causing Ice Blocks to instantly melt when placed in Sandbox mode. Fixed crash that could happen if a Duplicant vomits in an invalid location. Pokeshells are no longer required to move to new cells in order for them to decide whether they can molt or not. Spaced Out! only Removed repeated entry for Plug Slugs in Critter Flux-o-Matic story trait. Fixed Rover continuing to work when their battery runs out. Biobots now drop their inventory when their in-progress chore is interrupted, if that current chore involves them adding an item to their inventory. Supply Closet Previews of many new blueprints are available in the supply closet. These (and more) will be available in the full release. Fixed issue on the blueprint opening screen where clicking on rarity text did not advance to the next blueprint. Other Worldgen Changes All versions Removed Neutronium geodes from the Geodes world trait. Spaced Out! only Adjusted minimum count of the Tundra biome on the Flipped Asteroid. This may affect some seeds. Modding Added modding support for mixing worlds and subworlds (i.e. biomes). Worlds can define where subworlds can be mixed by defining subworldMixingRules. Rule names must include parentheses such as “(Mixing1)”. Subworld mixings are defined in the subworldMixing folder. World mixings are defined in the worldMixing folder. All clusters have been configured to allow for replacing outer asteroids. Important POIs, subworlds, and meteor showers are added to the new world. Content from loaded planet packs are filtered out of the Db when loading into a save without the DLC enabled. To check if content is loaded: DlcManager.IsContentSubscribed To check if content is available in a save: SaveLoader.Instance.IsDLCActiveForCurrentSave Fixes Skip installing mods which failed to download instead of crashing. Fixed crash loading saves with modded Artables if the mod is disabled. Asteroid and cluster name and description keys no longer crash when missing strings. Fixed crash when a worldgen mod is removed that added an asteroid icon by using the default asteroid icon. Worldgen Added welcomeMessage to cluster config to override the default welcome message when starting a new game. It can be a string key or plain text. Deprecated cluster config requiredDlcId and forbiddenDlcId. Use the string arrays requiredDlcIds and forbiddenDlcIds instead. Worldgen mods using the deprecated fields will be translated to the new format on load. clusterCategory can be specified using enum values in addition to numbers. Added allowNearStart to template rules which allows placement near the start. It does not allow overwriting features as they are often important to the starting area. Added new template rules TryRange and GuaranteeRange which picks a random value from a defined range. Fully mature plants found in POI templates are no longer randomized after worldgen. What is public testing? "Public testing" means players get to test-drive new content early and give us feedback and suggestions before it goes live. Because this is an unfinished and in active development version of the game, it's pretty likely you'll encounter bugs, crashes or balance issues while playing these builds. We'll try to fix any problems that crop up as quickly as we can, but it's possible you'll lose progress in your games while playing on the Testing branch. Regarding performance, the Testing branch has additional debugging tools enabled to help us track down crashes. This makes the game run more slowly than the live version of the game. Please also be aware that once a save is loaded in the Testing branch, it cannot be reopened again in the previous Live branch or previous builds. What do I do if I find a crash or a bug? Post it up on the Bug Tracker and we'll fix it as soon as we can. If you can attach a copy of your save file to your report, that helps us even more as we can pinpoint the source of problem more quickly. Do I have to play the public testing build? Nope! If you'd prefer to only play a stable build, you can continue to play in the current Default branch until the game launches in full. Playing the Open Testing build isn't necessary, but it helps us a lot to receive your feedback and reports - if you're interested, try it out! How do I become a public tester? There's no sign up or registration for becoming an open tester. If you own Oxygen Not Included and want to join the Testing Branch, all you have to do is play the Open Testing build on Steam. How do I play the public testing build? You can switch your branch on Steam using the instructions below:
