It's here, Module Makers,

The Free Build Map is now available in Modulus!

When we previewed this last week the response blew us away, and we can't wait to see what you build with a bit more room to breathe. From today, when you start a new save you'll be able to choose between the Classic Map and the Free Build Map; more space, logical Polyrock layouts, and no terrain constraints getting in the way of your factory vision.

The Classic Map isn't going anywhere. Two ways to play, one game. Pick your challenge.

We have also tweaked the tutorial to include the fact that you can place belts through miners, as many players reported not realising this for several hours.

Additionally, the update includes the following fix:

Fixed softlock when trying to link harvester pad drone to a building

Also live today: Steam Trading Cards!

Collect, trade, and show off your love for Modulus. Cards drop as you play, so get on the factory floor and start earning them.

We Are Going Live

We am going live in just under 30 mins to show off the new Free Build Map. So join Jarvs in chat and hang out as she tries to make a more organised factory than her previous spaghetti filled attempts. 

Twitch YouTube TikTok

She will also be drawing the winner of both the Screenshot Contest merch bundle on stream.

As always, let us know what you think in the comments or over on Discord. And if there's something else you'd love to see in a future update, you know where to find us, the Feature Upvote Board is open!

See you on the factory floor.

Hey Modulue Makers

First up WOW. Thank you from the bottom of our hearts for such an incredible launch week. Your excitement and enthusiasm around the game means more to us than we can put into words. Seeing everyone sharing screenshots, giving each other advice on optimal layouts, and just generally being as excited about the game as we are, has been absolutely awesome.

We have been listening to feedback and monitoring the Feature Upvote Board for your most requested suggestions and have begun putting a plan together to decide what's next for Modulus. There has been one particular suggestion that has come up a fair few times in reviews and forum posts, and that is to give players a way to build without the terrain constraints present in the campaign. Whilst the puzzle aspect of designing a factory around these constraints is intended, and is the recommended way to play Modulus, we do get that it isn't for everyone. We hear you when you say you want to build, copy, and blueprint more easily.

So we're adding a new map that lets you do exactly that.

Introducing the Free Build Map

In the coming weeks you'll get the option to choose between the Classic Map (recommended) and Free Build Map which gives you:

Larger islands: more room to build and expand your production lines the way you want to

Logical Polyrock layout: resources distributed in a way that makes sense for how you want to build, not against it

No terrain challenges: a more open, traditional factory experience for those who prefer it

The original map isn't going anywhere. If you love the spatial puzzle and the constraint of the island terrain, that experience is exactly as it was. This is simply a new way to play Modulus, and we think it opens the game up to a lot more players.

Also in this update: A small but important tweak to the tutorial: we’re telling players more clearly that belts can run through miners.

The hologram will now show the conveyor running through the miners, with updated text to match, as well as in front of them. A minor fix, but one that should make those first few minutes a lot clearer. 

We'll have a release date for the map update soon. In the meantime, let us know what you think and if there's anything else you'd love to see in a future update, drop it on the Feature Upvote Board.
