LCD App Selector by Kiminaze
The LCD Screen App Selector allows changing the currently displayed app on any LCD via the "run" function of the programmable block.
Connector Alignment App by Kiminaze
It adds a new selectable app to any LCD Panels in the game.
The app allows you to see positional and rotational offset from a connector. It automatically detects the best pair or allows setting a specific connector from the grid. It also allows for connectors on subgrids.
SuitSwap - AceTech Suits by PepperJack
Adds AceTech suit items to the PEPCO SuitSwap system with 5 specialized suit types, loot table integration, and a first-spawn starter suit.
Personnal Suit Assembler by JejeServeur

In the 1.209 update, we’re going BIG - and that’s not just isolated to economy gameplay. We’re adding a number of large blocks designed to spark creativity and offer new options for your builds. Let’s take a look at the brand new Structural Block set.
This set features 7 large-profile blocks that will be available for free for all our players. You’ll see them prominently featured across our new Trade Stations, as they’re perfect for quickly laying foundations for bigger builds, adding durable supports to platforms and overhangs, or creating open areas to function as landing pads.
As always, we’re eager to get these blocks into your hands. Our team loves seeing your creativity and ingenuity come to life with every new block that’s added to the game - and 1.209 has plenty more headed your way!
See you Soon™, Engineers!

Image Credit: Just a little SE on my CRT by speeding-goofballOur favorite pastime is browsing through the workshop - we are in love with all the creations our players are constantly sharing. 💫
We can't wait every month to spotlight mods and blueprints that catch our eye and have the potential to make your time in Space Engineers more interesting and unique.
Here is our spotlight for the month of February! 🤩
Dyson Swarm by MasterKill666
Dyson Swarm is a late-game, lightweight, Dyson-sphere-inspired power system for Space Engineers.
Instead of simulating thousands of physical objects, this mod uses a scalable swarm model: craft Solar Sails, launch them toward the sun, and generate massive amounts of clean energy through Dyson Receivers - all while remaining server-friendly and performant.
Humanoid's Gimballed Jet Thruster
This mod adds 3 blocks for small grid - 2 sizes of jet engines and an air intake.
Jet thrusters consume both oxygen and hydrogen and can only function while in atmosphere. Oxygen consumption is quite high, so you have to place an intake because oxygen tanks would run dry pretty quickly.
ArmourEssentials by Jeckle
Welcome to Armour Essentals! I'm Jeckle, and I created this mod to fill various niches and gaps present with tank combat in Space Engineers.
Decorative SN by ORusso
I am new to the Space Engineers modding world, but using the 3D software knowledge I already had, I managed to create this first set of decorative blocks.
All blocks were made with care, focusing on visual quality, organization, and optimization.
Battlestar Galactica: Colonial Interior by aczel2
Battlestar Galactica: Colonial Interior - Colonia corridor elements from the time of the First Cylon War, CIC console, Dradis Console, Ftl console, and more!
Alkaline Missile Weapons Pack by Acidosis
This pack adds a variety of missile turrets and almost two dozen missiles, taking full advantage of the Vanilla+ framework. Dumb missiles, homing missiles, proximity fuses, shrapnel shells, armor piercing explosives, splitting missiles, railgun drone-likes, and even nuclear payloads.
240mm Vanguard Turret by Harbinger Ace
Unleash a torrent of fire with the Vanguard, a 240mm weapon system built for ship-to-ship combat. Chambering two separate ammo types - penetrative armor-piercing and powerful high-explosive shells - the Vanguard is ready for any mission, any time.
Immersive Cargo by 4peace
This mod adds specialized, open-style cargo containers with visible contents, letting you instantly see what’s stored and how much directly on the block, and easy access to the inventory.
JSDarkMatter by JejeServeur
Is Dark Matter useful? With these blocks now, yes.
Generator, Refinery and Reactor.
Federal Industrial - Excavation by Frosty
Need a big hole dug or even a small mountian removed? We've got you covered!
Latest from the Federal Industrial team, Heavy Excavation.
HangarField by JejeServeur
Tired of losing your oxygen ?
Here's a set of blocks to pressurize your hangars.
JSDoors With Force Field by JejeServeur
Adds a force field version of all vanilla doors.
Imperial Light Panel by JejeServeur
Is your Star Destroyer lacking decorations?
Here's a set of light panels for your corridors and hangars.
Terra-Remake by MauseLoch9000
Original Mod by Duke of Lorraine.
This is Terra Remake, overhauled and updated for 2026. It includes Biome dependant APEX-Survival additions, 3D-Clouds, a remade Atmosphere with beautiful sunsets, custom Ice-Voxels and of course wolfes.
RCSP Encounters by ShootingManGold
This MES encounter mod brings Venom's RCSP creations into your world using Modular Encounter Systems. It features space cargo ships, planetary ships, and boss encounters for players and friends to encounter. This mod mainly focuses on planetary fighter combat with the Langley Helicarriers spawning flights of fighters to engage.
Henry's Hardasses: The Final Exam by CosmicDonut
Henry's Hardasses. The premiere engineer for hire outfit in the known Galaxy. They have a reputation for getting the job done when no one else can.
Upon completion of this scenario, you will become a member of the HHAS (Henry's Hardasses), and eligible for future scenarios!
Scientific Progress by Echthros
"Scientific Progress" is a progression-type mod that creates a set of goals on each planet and in the world overall to create a sense of proper play progression.
Block unlocks, player buffs, block buffs, and monetary rewards are all tied to the gathering of "science" on planets through several methods. Send probes deep into the atmosphere of a gas giant, skim the surface of a star, and trawl through exotic biomes in search of the most valuable scientific data!
WeatherForecastMod by SilentAssassin
Weather Radar & Grid Protection - Enhance your survival immersion with a localized weather forecasting network. Predict incoming storms and protect your infrastructure by automatically folding solar arrays or braking turbines before the damage starts.
MultiSeating by yellow51
Have you ever wanted to take a seat on the couch next to your friends? Maybe watch a movie?...well now you can!
MSCDS by Xejijikot
Created to use wheels as tank suspension without using gyroscopes. Equipped with hydropneumatic suspension.
Allows to turn around on the spot without using gyroscopes!
Rotary Stabilizer by Temich_P
Rotary Stabilizer is a specialized script designed to keep your tools, drills, or platforms perfectly level relative to a planet's gravity. It uses advanced exponential smoothing to eliminate "jitter" and "shaking" common in heavy mechanical rigs.
Afterburners by Meta Calf
Adds a simple, cockpit-friendly afterburner toggle to ALL thrusters.
When enabled, thrusters get a boost of 400% of normal operating power (and consume more power accordingly). If you push the engines harder than their normal maximum, they can start to tear themselves apart!
SpawnKit - Start Items by Ryan477
Give every player the exact spawn inventory you want.
No vanilla files are overwritten. Everything is controlled by a simple config file per world/save.
Airtight Doors by Echthros
Modifies doors to not break airtightness when opened. Can be toggled on for "Doors", "AdvancedDoors", "SlidingDoors", and "HangarDoors" separately via Config.
For anyone that enjoys the oxygen mechanics, but doesn't want to have to constantly worry about accidentally venting.
Sleep in Beds by Meta Calf
When all online players are "asleep" (in a bed or cryo chamber), the server will fast-forward time.
The moment any player gets up, time goes back to normal.
Runs on the host / dedicated server (clients do not control time).
Character Resource Usage Configurator by yellow51
A simple mod that allows server side energy, hydrogen and oxygen multipliers to be configured. This way, you can run any character (modded or vanilla) without having to reupload a mod or make one to the workshop or anything tedious like that.

We’re making great progress on the 1.209 update, adding lots of new content and features to the economy system, while simultaneously improving and expanding older elements. Over the past few weeks, contracts have been a major focus.
Many of the existing contract types are being refined to address pain points and improve their overall experience, while several brand-new contracts are being added into the mix. Our goal is to deliver an updated experience that features modernized NPC grids, dynamic situations, and objectives that encourage the use of specialized craft to get the job done.
Recovery Contracts: You never know what you might find in the void of space. The existing NPC and encounter systems now have a chance of becoming the starting point of your next big payday. Explore, discover, profit.
PvE Bounty Contracts: Jump right into the action - facing off against pirates, mercenaries, and hostiles who threaten your allies. Defeat them, keep the trade lanes secure, and earn credits for your prowess.
Hauling Contracts: Containers packed with vital supplies are ready to move. Can your ship handle the additional weight and still make the delivery window?
Salvage Contracts: Valuable items have been lost in the aftermath of a disastrous event. Track them down, return them to their rightful owner, and you’ll be generously rewarded. The client only cares about their treasures, anything else you manage to extract is yours to keep.
Whatever your playstyle is, 1.209 is sure to breathe new life into your Space Engineers experience. We can’t wait to get it into your hands!

Here is our spotlight for the month of January! 🤩
HIC_Prime by HIC
HIC Prime is a habitable green exoplanet designed for colonial scenarios, survival, and industrial development within the Hunters Industrial Corporation universe.
Planet Mythu by Doctor Octoganapus
Mythu is a cold and desolate barren world known to many as a small worthless rock. While initial surveys showed the planet was resource poor and lacked any ore deposits more recent surveys have discovered the planets hidden wealth.
Planet Terminus by Doctor Octoganapus
Terminus is a cold world sporting vast seas, deserts, dense forests, and tall mountains. Dense forests dominate the coasts and much of the various mountains on the planet. Vast plains of frozen desert blanket a significant portion of the planets surface creating a desolate environment of sand for as far as the eye can see.
Planet Solitude by Romulous
A cold hardcore world that only has ores at the poles deep underground (300m+). You will need an enhanced ore detector to succeed on this planet (and patience).
Economy Overhaul by Not a Chance
This mod overhauls many of the economy features, it comes with new npc trade stations, new cargo ships, pirate drones and damaged repair grids for contracts. It also adds new purchasable store grids for Builders, along with specialised grids for Trader and Miner factions.
Extended Survival Compact by ogrimdooh
Extended Survival Compact is a streamlined, all-in-one evolution of my previous Extended Survival modular project for Space Engineers 1. New ores, new components to support deeper progression, and more!

This mod adds an "Beam Blade Generator" that creates a kind of laser blade that does damage, based on 2cm beam system mod.
Well, basically it's lightsaber, beam saber form gundam series for exact.
Weapon Overhaul by JaeSmash
This mod is a complete re-balancing of weapon statistics, addition of new turrets and a visual overhaul of existing assets. It aims to provide a more logical progression for ship combat, focusing on realistic weapon roles, extended engagement ranges, and more consistent visual designs.
Humanoid's Multi Directional RCS Thruster
This mod adds a new RCS thruster block that can control both rotation and movement simultaneously! Be warned that RCS thrusters actually damage blocks and characters with their plume - don't place stuff in front of them unless you want it to blow up!
Ranged Drill by KevMeUp
Ranged Drill for Small Grid using Gatling gun model. Drills around 33 small blocks in front of the drill.
Works great with a turret controller. Gives fun options like inset drills for ships or drilling below the voxel you're driving on for stone.
Pipe Hinge by Substicious
A hinge which fits on the end of a pipe. Simple.
1/3rd Collector by Substicious

Humanoid's Realistic-ish RCS Thruster Controls
Realistic RCS thruster controls adds an option to switch between “vanilla-like” and “realistic” thruster modes via terminal buttons or hotbar actions as well as ability to control rotation with thrusters using your regular inputs (mouse and q/e for keyboard users).
Rocket Engineering by Ph.D Composer
Hydrogen thrusters now use a pressure system to determine the max force output.
Heightmap Pixel Mapper by cptnoname
The Heightmap Pixel Mapper is a lightweight session mod designed specifically for planetary artists.
Have you ever spent hours flying around a custom planet trying to find that one specific mountain on your heightmap?
BeeOS Suit Voice Mod by Sarekh
This changes the arcade-sound version of many of the suit voice lines to beeble-quotes - because it is... let's go with immersive! Yes, that's a good word for it.

Our next update, 1.209, focuses on modernizing the Economy System. Our goal is to deliver a refreshed experience where Trade Stations are useful, practical, and worth visiting throughout your journey. That’s why we’re introducing the Services Terminal.
The Services Terminal offers a variety of new services to spend your hard-earned Space Credits on. Need repairs after taking on the Factorum? Or maybe the Factorum won that round and you’d like to sell your grid as salvage? For a price, a nearby station can help you out, save you time, and get you back in the fight.
Best of all, you can use the most impactful service right at your own base: Grid Storage. That’s right, building one of these blocks will allow you to store and retrieve entire grids. Safely store an old ship you’re not ready to part with, swap between specialized vessels, or temporarily free up PCU for a new creative endeavour. This feature can be used in any world or scenario, and will come with options to allow server admins to adjust how it functions.
Development is still early, but we’re very excited about the possibilities 1.209 brings to the Space Engineers universe - and we can’t wait to share it with you!

We can't wait every month to spotlight mods and blueprints that catch our eye and have the potential to make your time in Space Engineers more interesting and unique.
Here is our spotlight for the month of December! 🤩
Mirathi System by Infinite
The Mirathi System is a stellar system centered around an orange dwarf star, containing five planets and eight moons.
The Mirathi System (RSS World) by Infinite
A preset-world for the Mirathi System, based on Real Solar Systems.
Planet Glacies by Herr Doktor
Glacies is a hard-frozen world locked in perpetual frigidity. Its surface is a jagged expanse of cryogenic plateaus, fractured ice fields, and deep-cut glacial canyons carved over millennia by slow planetary shifting beneath a crust that never truly thaws.
Planet Miasma by Herr Doktor
Miasma is a murky swamp world shrouded in a perpetual, pale-green haze. Its horizon is low and soft, its light filtered through thick layers of vapor, algae colored mist, and airborne spores.
Planet Tibur by Herr Doktor
Tibur is a dry, wind-scoured desert world defined by vast plateaus, sun-bleached plains, and wide basins filled with dense, brittle grass.
Factorum Remote Mining Outpost by BadlLuck
Watch out, the Factorum are out seeking rare ores! This adds two variants of a new global encounter to the game. I recommend increasing your global encounter pcu but it is not necessary.
SENB Wake Island by Khjin
A scaled down version of Wake Island.
SE - Playable Chess by F8Code
Hi everyone! I present to you playable SE chess! Currently it's a design that uses a 10x20 small grid space, but for your convenience I also attached a large grid to it.
Modular Powercore Batteries by NerdorbitLP
Why wait for a battery to recharge when you could just swap a power core? Introducing the Modular Powercore Battery!
The modular powercore battery system has been designed to allow quick exchange of power between grids by simply swapping out an empty powercore from it's frame with a charged one.
+AEWS-Weapons II by Ellinn™
Weapon pack featuring energy and kinetic weapons with different ammo choices.
Survival and Creative ready.
Alkaline Howitzer Weapons Pack by Acidosis
This weapon pack adds 7 weapon blocks and 3 ammo types, all to provide a viable source of explosive damage. The only true vanilla explosive weapons are the missile, an extremely overpriced weapon type with poor DPS, and the warheads, whose classification as a weapon block is questionable at best.
Extra Cannons by BlueBirrb
Vanilla Looks, Weapon Core Functionality!
Proto-Modules T2-T6 by TheMightyMcGrew
Adds upgraded Speed, Power and Yield modules ranging from 2x-6x. Speed and Yield are balanced by requiring various prototech components, requiring players to obtain the prototech assembler and make calculated decisions on whether they should sacrifice prototech blocks they encounter for the sake of obtaining better speed or yield modules.
Small Ship Food Production by SEModder4
I got this as a personal request to make. So have fun with small ship food production blocks for small ships now too!
Small Ship Large Prototech Drill by SEModder4
This is a Small ship grid drill using the large ship model.
I might do this with all the prototech blocks for fun.
The legend returns to modding!
RoadPilot Agent by Pluscezz
RoadPilot transforms your vehicles into intelligent autonomous agents capable of navigating complex road networks, managing traffic at intersections, and executing precise parking maneuvers. By using a decentralized, node-based map system and real-time IGC communication, RoadPilot delivers reliable, self-driving transport, freeing you up to focus on exploration and construction.
RoadPilot Destination by Pluscezz
Whether you need an automatic cargo route, a shuttle between bases or a defense drone, RoadPilot will handle the driving.
Realistic Vanilla Weapons 2.0 by Soumagnei & Krat3n
RVW 2.0 mod overhauls the characteristics of basic game hand-held and block weapons, making them closer to their real-life counterparts.
CSE - Personal Shield by Crowigor
Getting caught outside your ship/rover in a fight is almost always a death sentence: your health is low, while weapon and collision damage can be huge. There are plenty of personal shield mods, but I wanted my own version - simple, with rank progression, and without “immortality for 1 kg of platinum”.
Real Minerals by michi84o
I'm a big fan of "Better Stone" which replaces the default ores with real minerals.
This mod is my own take on this topic.
Rocket FX Updated by Bomb
Visual effects for thrusters, smoke trails, huge flame, similar to highfleet or homeworld.
Configurable ingame - Size, density, time it stays on air, exact thruster that will emit the effect.
CHKN CO Fighter Hud by CHKNFRYRMN
A full combat-flight HUD for fighters and interceptors, or really any flight capable craft.
FCS Bereza by Xejijikot
This script is designed to control the tank turret using the mouse. It includes advanced sensor and communication systems, as well as providing situational awareness by visualizing information in HUD style on displays.
Advanced Block and Thruster Renaming by mamba
This mod enhances block renaming in Space Engineers by adding advanced controls to thrusters and other blocks, allowing you to rename multiple blocks at once with ease.
Stats HUD by Nicolas
Displays: Total mass, Required thrust (dF), Included item mass (items are fully included in mass & thrust calculation)
Features: Dynamic gravity detection, Manual gravity override, Accurate inventory mass handling (supports inventory multipliers), Per-grid calculation via camera raycast
Useful Suit Warnings by Wellington6012
Useful Suit Warnings improves Space Engineers’ suit audio alerts by making them clearer, smarter, and less annoying - without changing core gameplay balance.
Power Control Program v1.1 by AlfRomeo80
This script controls the power of your station or vehicle. First of all you can use displays to see the power produced by the different types of power producing blocks.
Then you can use a control seat or a cockpit to control these blocks. It's possible to switch different blocks on or off, to change the charging status of batteries etc.
Jet Pack Colours by Dread_Mechanic
Would you like to change the colour of your Jet Pack flames?
Well now you can with the Jet Pack Colours Mod!
Do you want to see more amazing Space Engineers ships, fighters, tanks, mechs, planets, rovers, bases, scripts, mods, encounters, scenarios, minigames, videos, and other creations?

Our recent updates have focused on NPCs and PvE content, bringing new encounters and challenges for players to explore and engage with. From Global Encounters and Cargo Ships, to Random Encounters and Unknown Signals - nearly every grid and system has been refreshed, modernized, and expanded Now, we turn our focus to the Economy System.
One element of the economy we’re excited to modernize is ship sales. Currently, many of the craft available to purchase at NPC stations are visually and functionally outdated. We’re hard at work revamping the entire lineup - from brand new ships to reworked classics, all with modern weapon systems, automation, and visual upgrades.
Whether you’re wanting to buy a ship ready for launch, or one to customize and make your own - update 1.209 will feature a ship market that has just what you’re looking for!

Image Credit: Resurgence by Cmdr SwizzleOur favorite pastime is browsing through the workshop - we are in love with all the creations our players are constantly sharing. 💫

Here is our spotlight for the month of November! 🤩
Easy Farming by Arthur
Allows for full Handsfree (and frankly boring) automation of Farm Plots, by automatically pulling seeds from selected inventory, crafting seeds on demand and harvesting automatically.
Planting Automation 2 by Arthur
Allows for automation of planting Farm Plots, by automatically Planting any seeds that are loosely dropped on top of an inactive Farm Plot, such as by a Connector set to 'Throw Out', or this mod's new "Drop Item" action. Combined with vanilla Collectors, this allows for fully automated farming.
DLC Food Block Expansion by captainbladej52
Adds functionality to the various DLC food prep blocks turning them into functional food processors. Retroactively applies to existing food prep blocks in world and BPs so you don't have to rip half your build apart.
Apex Survival Additions by DarkArkAngel
A mod which adds new ways to farm synthetic meats, as well as new food and utility items. Apex Survival Additions will eventually expand to become a large modpack, aimed at enhancing the vanilla survival experience without becoming too overpowered.

Sköll Sector by Echthros
Welcome to the Sköll Sector, a dangerous trinary system that was once the site of a calamitous interstellar battle between unknown factions.
From the artificial black hole at the core of the system to the ship debris and damaged worlds still in unstable orbit, the entire region bears scars from the ancient conflict.
Knights of the Old Republic II Planets by Tiberious1
These are planets from the game Knights of the Old Republic II.
Texture for the sky was taken from the game and made planets as much like the game as possible with SE.

Space Station Babel (Escape Room) by Conte.Pasticcio
This version of the build contains a whole escape room with multiple buildings and secrets to discover.
Scrap, Shoot, Survive: Pertam Wasteland by Athunc
This wasteland world has no ores (except Uranium & Magnesium), thus you will have to grind down the plentiful wrecks and ruins for scrap. You can use the survival module or refineries to turn that scrap into ingots!
Operation Stay Aloft by NovaCharlie
The rules are simple: Stay afloat, build a fully functional ship with a jump drive, leave the planets gravity field and complete a maximum range jump.
50mm Heavy Autocannons by Harbinger Ace
A pair of hard-hitting autocannons, one fixed and one turret, for those who know "enough dakka" is heresy. With rates of fire of 15 and 60 per second, respectively, these guns will put any stubborn foe right in their place; the grave.
Railway Builder by Marland T. "Ren" Höek
This mod is a fork of Randa's Train Parts. It contains separated crossties and rails for building a huge and awesome railroad. But you still need the wheels from that.
Alkaline Sabot Weapons by Acidosis
This pack adds a single new ammo type, Sabots, and ten different turrets. These all fill slightly different niches, but are designed to counter high-speed threats that are too tough for gatlings to defend against. These are balanced with respect to vanilla weapons.
O-yoroi Effort (Shield Mod) by TheRebornAce
Ō-yoroi, Japanese for “Great Armor,” is a shield mod that greatly increases the survivability and protection of your grids. Mod includes multiple shield generator block size options with the addition of optional upgrade modules to tweak the shield’s capabilities to your desired needs.

Safe Speed by lowgogo2
Safespeed mod so when below a set speed it will not cause damage when you crash into a object like Space Engineers 2 Safe Speed
High Pressure Bottles by Splitsie
This mod simply makes Hydrogen and Oxygen bottles smaller in your inventory. So instead of taking up 120L of volume, they now take up only 40L each, allowing you to carry 3 times as many which makes the bottle indicator on your HUD kinda useful.
T-Frame (customizable mech frame) by Metallic4

Stability
- Fixed a crash in Join Game screen when a server query came back without Settings
- Fixed a crash when a modded consumable affected fewer stats than the localisation string formatting expected
Functional
-
Fixed an issue where it was possible to copy&paste a small grid into voxel, making it static
- Fixed an issue where Deposit All button affected the legacy 5.56x45 NATO magazine item
- Reverted previous fix for welding projected merge blocks in an off state, as it caused valid cases in Survival (merge block ON) to split unexpectedly.
Modding
- Fixed an issue where inventory filters for LargeMissileTurret and LargeGatlingTurret (TypeIDs with null SubtypeID) incorrectly applied to all derived vanilla and modded subtypes, causing modded weapon inventories to reject compatible modded ammo.
Thank you for helping us make the game better!
