Hi Everyone!

Today we announce ESS 4.0 - Next Generation, which will bring the most recent breakthroughs in planetary editing to players! This major update to Enhanced Stock System is planned for early 2021 and will be bringing many changes. The final changelog is currently in progress, but we can confirm that an outer planet-moon pair will be the flagship of the release.

There are also some very exciting developments which I will be unveiling over the next few weeks--my ambition is that ESS will be more than just a planetary system.

I plan to make forum posts more regularly in future, with updates on development progress etc.

We look forward to seeing you in ESS 4.0!

    @NewFrontiersExploration if everything will be good, you will not loose any craft. But crafts on surface can dissapear. When I update system of my sandbox I loose ~5/100 crafts on the surface

    @KirRu Thanks for the response. So crafts in orbit are the only one that'll be left?

    @rebornranch getting to inner planets is harder then to outer planets

    @NewFrontiersExploration after downloading this, you can update planetary system of your sandbox in planet editor. But you can lose some crafts on the surface

    I have a question guys, say you have quite established yourself with many crafts in ESS 3.2 and ESS 4.0 is released. Can I just update to the new system without losing progress or that would mean that ESS 3.2 exists in its own game and I would have to start afresh in ESS 4.0.

    Awesome, thank you so much.
    May I please take to this opportunity to suggest also inner planets that can be Mercury and Venus analogues, in the same way that @KirRu added two inner planets to the existing ESS.
