Summary (AI)
Ostranauts 1.0 introduces a new plot called The Ceres Affair with alternate endings that impact the System, along with expanded endgame content. Major space stations feature unique maps, local elements like satellites and blockades, and improved AI behavior for docking and emergencies. A new Bounty system lets players capture targets for rewards, and Steam Workshop support enables mod sharing. The update also improves UI functionality, trading, and controls, while adding new music tracks and several gameplay quality-of-life enhancements. Players can now import ships from old saves, and the tutorial has been expanded for better onboarding.
