Ostranauts v0.14.5.9 Overhauls Tutorial and Fixes Save Damage

Ostranauts update v0.14.5.9 adds tutorial expansions, PDA social filters, and a fix for save-load item damage, while delaying 1.0 to 2026.

Ostranauts update v0.14.5.9 arrives as a hotfix for the inventory overhaul, adding tutorial adjustments, UI filters, and a fix for recurring item damage on load.

Tutorial and Navigation

The tutorial now guides players through the tutorial derelict and back to OKLG to sell salvage and refuel. Objective arrows now point directly to targets on-screen, and character creation displays only active skills.

Interface and QOL

The PDA Socials app includes relationship filters and name or closeness sorting. Ship mass now appears on NAV logs and status pages, and the QAB removes the drop-item option to prevent stacking bugs.

Bug Fixes and Stability

Loading saves no longer causes ships and stations to take auto-damage. The update also stops players from grabbing items through walls, lets long-duration conditions expire correctly, and clears loose social items on load.

Roadmap Changes

The developers delayed the 1.0 release of Ostranauts to 2026 to focus on stability and quality-of-life updates. The Fire in the Hold update remains planned for release by the end of the year.

Why this patch matters

Update v0.14.5.9 removes save-load damage bugs, cleans up inventory exploits, and expands the game tutorial.
