StarRupture's August dev blog: pillars, map QoL, Corpo info

Creepy Jar's August 2026 developer blog for StarRupture previews the next update's quality-of-life improvements, covering easier building placement, faster menu navigation, and clearer map guidance.

Building and factory tweaks

  • Add Pillars in Building Mode: Toggle "Add Pillars" to automatically add pillars to new buildings regardless of height. Toggle it off to build pillar-free if the stability level allows it.
  • Automatic Pillar Support height adjustment: Pillars now adjust their height to the Platforms above, making construction stability easier to manage.
  • Search bar in Buildings & Storages: A search bar speeds up finding a specific item or recipe.
  • Corporate Terminal info: The terminal shows the items needed for the selected Corporation Level, helping with current production and factory planning.

Map and HUD improvements

  • Teleporter & Base Core custom names: Custom names now appear on the map, making it simpler to remember where you placed things.
  • Abandoned Bases completion guide: Entering an Abandoned Base shows an on-screen guide with the treats available there. Hovering over the location on the map displays the same summary, so you can tell whether it's worth returning for items you haven't collected yet.

Creepy Jar says these are just some of the improvements in the works for the next update. Catch up on the previous developer blog on Steam, and join the Discord for upcoming event news.
