To get this update, you have to opt in inside your library:
Necesse -> Properties -> Betas -> Select 0.21.x in dropdown.

This update has a bit of everything. From a wiki, to adding some game changing features and a lot of balance changes. So let's get straight into it.

A wiki has been a much requested feature, and hopefully you will help me make it good. I have set up the beginning of it over at www.necessewiki.com, where you can contribute with new articles, information etc.
The Offical Discord Server will have a wiki channel where we can discuss how the wiki should be operated. I am of course open to suggestions and general feedback.
I hope that many of you will help me create awesome articles, templates and other content for it. If you need any textures or help with something, I will like always be available in the Discord Server.




A hunger mechanic is another feature a lot of people have requested. It is currently optional, but enabled by default. Still, it should not be too invasive on players who just like the exploration part and not the survival. So give it a try and give feedback on what you think should change.




Settlements will now occasionally get raided. This means you have to consider how you build your settlement with the best way to defend it. If built smart, it should be able to defend itself without your help. To help with some of your settlers potentially getting killed, sometimes new settlers will now visit your settlement who you can recruit for a price.




Some of the many other smaller changes are:
- Added thorns mini biome to swamp caves.
- Settlers will now pick up items on the ground and put them in storage.
- Sage & Grit settlement quest with a new unique reward.
- Optimized settler jobs and doubled their work range.
- Balance changes to various bosses, items etc.
And much more.
