Sandustry Updates and Patch Information
Use Sandustry's official Steam news feed for update announcements and patch notes, then compare the newest published version with the build shown by your installed game. Before loading a valuable factory, review save notes and Workshop compatibility, preserve a backup, and recheck any changed production values in the official Wiki.

Read official Steam news
Steam news attached to app 2764460 is the primary public record for patches and announcements. Read the publication date and the full note instead of relying only on a version number, because hotfixes may target saves, balance, performance, tools, or Workshop behavior differently.
Match the note to your installed build
Confirm that Steam has completed its download, launch the game, and compare the displayed build with the newest official note. If they differ, restart the client and inspect download state before diagnosing a factory as though the patch were already active.
Protect saves and verify mechanics
Back up important factories, read save-migration warnings, and check each subscribed Workshop item before opening the main world. Research costs, ratios, terminology, and incomplete Wiki pages can change during Early Access, so verify affected mechanics against the live game and updated official references.
