Hello, everybody! After months of relative silence on our end, our team has decided to disclose some information on what we are planning and what has been happening since we last updated.

During this silence, we voted internally on whether to scrap the game and restart it anew or to continue working on what we had. We decided ultimately to continue with the current game. We are working towards an overhaul to the HUD, 173 movement issues, reworking the other dimensions, changing the intro, touching up on old code, a lighting system rework, actual lore, and much more! Visit our roadmap page if you are more curious about our progress. The roadmap is updated frequently, so check in whenever you can! Updates to the game will be slow, but we promise they will come.

If you want to help progress development, job listings are still open on our Discord server! We would be very grateful to get volunteers for our game. Modelers, designers, artists, and more coders would be welcome onto our team. If you don't want to help directly but still want to assist, we encourage you to suggest features or bug fixes on our server.

If you are interested in helping out, or just want to chat. You can join our discord server here

Welcome to Version 0.4.4-alpha, featuring a few new minor features and another slew of bug fixes!

Changelog
[h2]Features[/h2]

• Reworked spectating system. NPCs can be spectated, and there is now a toggle between freecam and "locking on" to a particular person. Spectators can also see SCP-966.
  
• Added new variants of the SCP-330 candies when refined in SCP-914.
  
• Added a "Round Lock" admin menu option, which will prevent the round from ending, even if everyone is dead.

Changelog
[h2]Features[/h2]

• Added server config to enable debug logs from the game.
  
• Added real-time controllable banner to the main menu.
  
• Closet room door is locked until the cutscene ends- which means SCP-173 can't open the door until the lights are back on. You're welcome.
  
• A new system is being used for SCP-106 exits, which means 106's exits will now lead into ANY LCZ/HCZ room (non-keycard only), as opposed to a few select hallways.
  
• Better authentication logs for servers when players join.
  
• Removed the ChatFilterBlockedWords server config. It can be easily re-implemented with plugins.
  

• Fix checkpoints sometimes not having text above their doors.
  
• Fix NPCs not spawning if certain rooms were not provided. Now SCP-049, SCP-106, and SCP-173 will spawn independently of their respective rooms (although SCP-049 will not spawn by default until the security room cutscene is activated). SCP-008, SCP-096, SCP-939, and SCP-966 still rely on their rooms in order to be spawned.
  
• Fix mouse staying locked if a popup opened while in-game.
  
• SCP-049 and SCP-096 can now open a few doors that they previously could not open.

• Add ElevatorTeleport and ScpSpawn events.
  
• Add PlayerAuthEvent.Reject()
  
• Rename Player.SendPlayerChatMessage() to Player.SendChatMessage()
  
• SCP173 now has the ISCP interface (..why didn't it?)
  

[h2]Changes & Bug Fixes[/h2]

• (Finally) Fixed server idler. The server idler slows down the processes of the server when no players are connected and no commands are sent. It will automatically turn off when a command is received or a player joins the server.
  
• (Finally) fixed a bug which required restarting the game in order to join a game after previously leaving one.
  
• Fix translation of the text on the LCZ checkpoint monitor.

• Fixed SCP-294 drinks that were supposed to immediately kill not doing so after eating a candy corn.
  
• SCP-173 should now more reliably spawn in the closet room (and kill the poor scientist and janitor in the process).

• Fixed the "reportbug" command leading to a dead link.
  
• Fixed being able to start the round multiple times at once.
  
• Removed many unused scripts.

• Player info will now show the correct icon (rather than being the viewer's icon).
  
• Server info scrollbar will reset to the top when a new server's info is opened.

• SCP-049 will no longer kill you while it is "curing" another player.
  
• NV Goggles in SCP-966 room no longer spawn huge.
  
• Fixed translation on the join public lobby page.
  
• Fixed constant server spam from the monitors (complaining about a null reference).
  
• Fixed the host of a Relay game unable to use admin commands when a player joins.
  
• Full lobbies will now show the amount of players (it will display the full label next to the count).

After months of radio silence and beta testing, Version 0.4.0-alpha is now live! We are excited to share all of the new features and bug fixes that come along with this update.

Major Features
[h3] SCP-096 [/h3]
After the long wait, SCP-096 has been implemented into the main game! Be careful when exploring heavy containment now, as a not-so welcome face may appear and surprise you. Make sure not to look into his face, as thatll be the last thing youll ever see!

SCP-096 can...

• Open non-keycard doors while docile, and open every door while enraged, including locked checkpoints and gates (doors opened by an enraged SCP-096 will close 1 second after they are opened). SCP-096 can also open the doors of elevators that are "moving".
  
• Chase its target through the entire map, including from the Light Containment Zone to the Entrance Zone.
  
• Use elevators to reach its target, including LCZ sub-level elevators, and the SCP-939 elevators.
  

• All server configs have been updated to start with an uppercase character. This may break server configs.
  
• Added stats to the end-game screen.
  
• Fixed room overlapping, as well as rooms that lead to nothing.
  
• Items teleport along with the elevators now.
  
• We have gotten rid of room sign pointers for the time being as they were causing server crashes.
  
• Removed void doors. Void doors were prop doors that were unopenable, and had an infinite space of void behind them. However, SCP-096 could still open these doors, which caused him to fall endlessly into the void upon entering them.
  
• When starting the game for the first time, you will get a new UI telling you to select your language, and presenting the game's warning text.
  
• Sprint and blink bar will now change color when influenced (eg. certain SCP-294 drinks such as coffee, blue/purple candy, etc).

• Usernames in the spectator chat menu will now be colored to match their badges.
  
• Added a waypoint admin menu page that allows server staff to teleport to certain parts of the facility.

  • Map editor will now show waypoints that can be used with the goto admin command, or via the admin menu. These waypoints are marked with purple squares, and mousing over them will show their name.
    
  • Map editor will now show kill triggers - invisible boxes that kill players on touch. These areas are marked with red squares.
    
  • Map editor now states a warning that achievements are disabled on custom maps.
    
  • Map editor has a minimize button to hide stats and keybinds, as well as a maximize button to reopen it.
    
  • Added a clear map button to the map editor toolbar.

[h2]Feedback Form[/h2]

Version 0.4.0-alpha has added many new features that players have been waiting on for quite some time now! This version is now available as a beta version! It is accessible underneath "Settings -> BETAS" and is titled "beta". Thank you all for your patience!

Sweet with a bitter surprise when you take more than two! The candy bowl has been implemented, and the candies can have various effects when consumed. I just wonder where its now going to be found

[h3] Steam Achievements [/h3]
We have added the ability to gain Steam achievements during your play. Keep track of how many you unlock in a new area in the main menu. These are disabled on custom maps and for users who use cheat commands, so dont think you can obtain them that easily ;)

Changelog
[h2]Features[/h2]

• Voice Chat is now using Dissonance, which should greatly improve its functionality. Spectators can also hear all other spectators, regardless of position. Spectators still need to be close to an alive player to hear them. Locally muting players is available regardless.
  
• Imported MEC, which is now available to all plugin developers and is used by most of the base-game.
  
• Better logs for server startup and missing plugin folders have been added.

• New Event: PlayerUseMedicalItem. This event will fire when a medical item is used. Disallowing the event will prevent the item from being used.
  
• Added item extension, including the ability to get an ItemType from an ItemBase.

• Fixed signs above the tesla gate not having text.
  
• Fixed a sign in the SCP-008 containment room not having text.
  
• Fixed text scaling in a few signs.
  

Changelog
[h2]Major Features[/h2]
V0.2.3-alpha brings quite a few major features (some of which have been in development for months), and are now ready to release!
[h3]New Main Menu[/h3]
Our new main menu has been in development for a few months now, and it is now live for all! The new menu features an improved serverlist, improved credits, and is more organized. There are less buttons presented immediately, however there is the same amount of content as before. Additionally, we have introduced a join friend feature, allowing players to join their Steam friend(s) directly through the game!

[h3]New Admin Menu[/h3]
We have completely revamped the admin menu to provide more features that have been requested! We have added the ability to view and copy map seeds directly from the menu, a better system for moderation (including being able to provide a reason and duration), and a better textbased admin command system. The panel will only show what you have permission to access - no redundancy! Did we mention that you can now select multiple players to run a command on? Whoa!

[h3]Plugin System Rework[/h3]
The update that most of the plugin development portion of ET has been waiting for - the plugin system has been reworked! The system functions better, and has numerous events for identifying when certain things in the game happen. The new plugin system is still in-dev, and expect more features with it soon! Its documentation can be found here.

[h3]Voice Chat Rework[/h3]
The game's Voice Chat has been reprogrammed, allowing for much easier communication with less glitches and lag.

[h2]SCP Changes[/h2]
V0.2.3-alpha introduces quite a few additions and removals to non-living SCPs.

[h3]SCP-008[/h3]
SCP-008's room has been added! In order to enter entrance zone, players will now need to close SCP-008 and prevent the spread of the disease. Until SCP-008 is contained, the entrance zone checkpoint is locked.

[h3]SCP-049[/h3]
SCP-049 has been completely rewritten! SCP-049 will now spawn as soon as the Light Containment Zone lockdown is deactivated, and will pursue ANY player that he sees or hears. As he is vision AND sound based, stealthily moving while he is nearby is key to not getting spotted.

[h3]SCP-178[/h3]
We have introduced SCP-178 (the 3D glasses). SCP-178 causes several instances of SCP-178-1 to appear while wearing the glasses, and attack the player if disturbed (including if the glasses are taken off). However, wearing the glasses will reveal the location of nearby items and players through walls. The glasses will replace SCP-1025.

[h3]SCP-1025[/h3]
SCP-1025 (the encyclopedia of common diseases) will no longer spawn by default (SCP-178 has taken its position). This SCP can only be spawned with admin commands. It may return in the future with new and improved code, but for now SCP-178 has taken its position.

[h3]SCP-1123 - GONE[/h3]
We have removed SCP-1123 (the skull). While SCP-1123 is a well known SCP, it is difficult to maintain internally, and it served no purpose in-game. Its room still exists, and the level 2 keycard can be retrieved from its room, but SCP-1123 itself no longer spawns.

[h2]Minor Features[/h2]

• Added a safezone to the SCP-173 starting room, preventing SCP-173 from entering the room when the round starts. Exiting and re-entering a safezone does not guarantee protection, however.
  
• Added a safezone to the SCP-939 storage rooms, preventing SCP-106 from targeting players who are in the storage area. If you are already being pursued by SCP-106, he will continue to pursue you even if you go into the SCP-939 storage rooms.
  
• Large improvements to map generation should lead to much less map collisions than before.
  
• Discord statuses will now show elapsed time on the main menu and in-game, and will show a unique image for certain rooms (eg. the 173 starting room). Hovering over the SCP:ET logo will now show the version the user is playing on.
  
• Added invisible walls to the SCP-106 containment chamber railing. No more jumping to the bottom of its containment and retrieving a free level 5 keycard.
  
• Added new inventory icons for the Flashlight, P90, and SCP-860.
  
• Added content warning while the game is loading.
  
• Broadcasts can only be displayed for up to 1 minute, instead of an infinite amount of time.
  
• Changed level 4 keycard inside of SCP-966's room into a level 3.
  
• Added signs in various rooms across the facility that point to other rooms.
  
• Camera shaking effect has been applied to elevators and certain ambients.
  
• Adding a "Press [KEYBIND] to spectate" hint that displays upon death.
  
• The Light Containment Zone Clean Room now operates as T-way room, and the control room can be entered with a keycard. The Clean Room can also be enabled and disabled.
  
• The Light Containment Zone airlocks have been re-implemented, and now force users to wait inside the airlock for a short period of time.
  
• Added labels in certain rooms that point to other rooms.
  
• Added a warning popup when the graphics settings are set too high than recommended.
  
• Added pickup animations to certain items.
  
• Added viewable in-game server info.
  
• Gas has been reworked, and is more visually realistic.
  

• Added server tags, which will allow server hosts to add tags to their server which users can search for.
  
• Re-added join and leave logs to the server console, and added player IP to both.
  
• Fixed the server console "broadcast" and "reload" commands.
  
• Removed the SCP-173 configuration - they caused issues with his new AI.
  
• Added "showsettings [group]" command to reveal certain server settings. This command can only be run by the host.
  
• Added "kick [steamId]" and "ban [steamId] [length (minutes)] [reason]" server console commands.
  
• Added "uptime" server console command to display the server's uptime.
  
• Fixed a bug which allowed using the "respawn" chat command while alive.
  
• NoTarget is now properly reset on spawn.
  
• Hints now have a character limit of 200. Broadcasts have an unlimited limit, however they have a max display timer of 60 seconds, and multiple broadcasts with the same message cannot be added.
  

• Fixed the keycard button on the inside of SCP-106's containment chamber being inside the wall.
  
• Gas in the LCZ lockrooms will now stop dispensing when the door is opened, instead of simply disappearing.
  
• SCP-106's idling timer will no longer decrease before the round has started.
  
• Fixed percentages being displayed incorrectly on powered items (eg. "SNav (00%)").
  
• Fixed a bug which caused SCP-049 to get stuck in a certain office room in LCZ.
  
• Fixed multiple networking bugs related to SCP-294 (eg. the machine not dispensing a drink for certain players).
  
• Fixed an out of bounds bug that used dead bodies to reach places.
  
• Fixed a bug regarding the inventory UI remaining open when changing classes.
  
• Fixed SCP-012's door button colliding with the SCP sign.
  
• Fixed a bug which involved items de-spawning when a user is killed by SCP-049 (this was an oversight, as users who are killed by SCP-049 do not spawn a body).
  
• Players' dimension is now set to the facility on spawn. This fixes a bug which involved SCP-106 immunity.
  

We have released an update to the public beta (Version 0.2.2-alpha), which fixes more bugs and adds more minor features.

V0.1.1-alpha brings bug fixes & minor features. This is not a large release, and we are working on more features that we're excited to talk more about soon!

Changelog
[h2]Features & Improvements[/h2]

• SCP-173 has been reworked, and will now wander instead of teleporting. While wandering, he can open any unlocked door, use elevators, and move across the map quickly. When pursuing player(s), he can only open non-keycard doors (and opens them much slower), and cannot use elevators. He will still teleport into certain rooms (eg. LCZ testing chamber & HCZ 173 hall).
  
• Replaced all of the game's icons with a new icon that looks better.
  
• Added unverified warning upon joining servers that aren't verified.
  
• Updated texture download UI to fit the same theme as the rest of the UI.
  
• The closet door no longer forces open after the scientist and janitor are killed (this was unfair with 173 spawning there).
  

• Added info command to the server console, which reveals the amount of players on the server, and whether or not the server is updated.
  
• Added broadcast command to the server console.
  
• Added offlineban command to the admin panel.
  
• Chat logs now include the user's Steam ID.
  
• Added additional log when a user is banned.
  

• Removed the HDRP setting on the main menu (HDRP was removed last update, this setting didn't do anything).
  
• Fixed items not dropping from bodies if body info is disabled.
  
• Fixed SCP-106 attacking players before the game has started.
  
• Added ambient triggers to each room, which should fix the bug related to lingering ambient from the wrong zone (eg. restarting the game with pocket dimension ambient still playing).
  
• Fixed IP banning not functioning properly (IPs were an empty message).
  
• SCP-106 can now pass through clean room and lock room doors.

V0.2.1.7 was a big release, and came with multiple bugs that V0.1.0-alpha has fixed. Additionally, V0.1.0 adds and removes features that were requested, and reworks features that were causing issues in V0.2.1.7. Changelog below.

Changelog
[h2]Major Features[/h2]

• Rewritten backend networking library. This is what caused previous issues, such as infinite loading, forced blinking, etc.
  
• Rewritten backend culling. This is what caused the bug where players were unable to see anything at the start of the game, as well as rooms such as SCP-939's room disappearing upon entry.
  
• Removed HDRP. We are focusing on improving the lighting using an alternative that will allow lower-end PCs to also play, without setting up two entirely different lighting systems. More news on this soon.
  
• Introduced a new font (Open Sans) that will be replacing the old text in most locations. This font has support for characters in other languages, allowing easier translating.
  
• Introduced a new body inspection system, which allows to pick up items and view death causes from a new UI.
  
• Added viewmodels for holding items.
  

• Alphabetizing language list
  
• Death chat message has been turned into a config, allowing servers to easily turn it off.
  
• Introduced death bass vibration sound effect, which will be played when someone dies. Can be enabled or disabled in configs.
  
• Introduced various keycard spawns across the map.
  
• Dead bodies will now teleport with elevators.
  
• Added a new LCZ office room that will correspond with lore later on.
  

• Fixed some issues involving SCP-294's networking code.
  
• Can no longer sprint in the Pocket Dimension (previously sprinting was possible, even though the sprint meter displayed empty).
  
• Fixing the configs for the intro timer being ignored, and the timer not working. Additionally, the timer config now defaults to 60 instead of 20.
  

We have released Version 0.2.1.7-rev3, which fixes a minor bug and adds some balance changes:

Bug Fixes
Fixed a graphical bug which caused some players to have a black screen when joining a lobby.

Minor Balance changes
Lockroom gas will now deal damage when the Lockroom is closed to prevent players from getting stuck.
Added some extra keycard spawns.

Our third official development stream will be taking place in 1 day (4:00 PM EST, 20:00 UTC). Like our previous dev stream, this one will be taking place in a Discord call. You must be 13 years of age or older to join the VC, as per Discord ToS. We will also be livestreaming the event to our YouTube account, and 13+ users will be able to use the livestream chat function to talk and ask questions during the stream.

V0.2.1.7-rev1 fixes a few bugs, including

• The LCZ lockdown monitors not resetting on round restart.
  
• A server crash caused by flipping the LCZ lockdown lever.
  

Introduction
After months of development, we are proud to announce that V0.2.1.7 is now available for all users. We all have put numerous hours into this update to ensure it brings some heavily requested content, fixes numerous bugs, and optimizes the game overall.


Major Features
[h2]SCP-049[/h2]
A heavily requested SCP by many people in our community, SCP-049 (Plague Doctor) is now present in-game. SCP-049 will spawn at the start of the game, and can be encountered after exiting the starting room. However, SCP-049 will not immediately mark players as targets. Instead, it will only pursue players it deems infected. Infected criteria includes (but is not limited to): Picking up SCP-714, turning down LCZ checkpoint lockdown, etc. Once deemed infected, the player will be targeted until they die or escape. SCP-049 is slower than players, making it very easy to outmaneuver it. SCP-049 is able to use elevators, and can open any door in the facility with the help of SCP-079 (with the exception of containment doors and locked doors).

[h2]Pocket Dimension Expansion[/h2]
We have expanded upon SCP-106's Pocket Dimension. The Pocket Dimension now includes multiple rooms from SCP: Containment Breach, including the throne room, coffin room, and everyone's favorite: the trenches. Check it out and see if you can escape successfully!

[h2]SCP-294[/h2]
Another heavily requested SCP, SCP-294 (The Coffee Machine) is also present in game now. SCP-294 is a stationary SCP located in the Entrance Zone Cafeteria. SCP-294, in lore, can dispense any substance that can be in the liquid state of matter. SCP-294 in-game serves the same purpose, and over many updates we will be adding more drinks. It costs $0.50 (USD) per drink dispensed. This requirement can be fulfilled by two quarters (NEW ITEM), a swipe of a Mastercard, or a combination of both.

[h3]SCP-294 Configuration[/h3]
For server owners: Server owners can enable and disable SCP-294 entirely. Server owners can also enable and disable multiple drinks by adding/removing certain drink flags (eg. disabling all drinks that cause the player to bleed). Drinks can also be disabled by name specifically.

[h3]SCP-294 Disclaimer[/h3]
For the first release of SCP-294, the game will be recording what drinks are entered into SCP-294 and sent to the development team. The game will ONLY send the input, and whether it was dispensed, out of range, or disabled by the server owner. We will NOT be sending steam ids, usernames, or any identifiable information, and the log will only be shown to SCP:ET developers. We are doing this solely to see trends in SCP-294 inputs, specifically to see which drinks we should focus on adding varying effects to.

[h2]SCP-966[/h2]
We have added SCP-966 (Sleep Killers). SCP-966s entities are invisible, slow enemies that deal minor damage on impact.

[h2]HDRP[/h2]
Our team has spent a lot of time on the introduction of HDRP (short for High Definition Rendering Pipeline). HDRP is a work-in-progress lighting and graphics overhaul, that gives the game a complete different feel. HDRP is disabled by default, and can be enabled in the main menu settings page. Keep in mind that although HDRP will greatly enhance gameplay experience, it will put a strain on GPU usage for lower-end devices, and as such we recommend that only users with higher-end PCs enable this feature.

[h2]Saving & Loading[/h2]
Saving & Loading is now possible on non-dedicated servers! Playing with friends, but you have to leave for a while? No worries! Simply save the game and come back to it later. Easy as that! Saving and loading is not possible on dedicated servers.

[h2]Intro Scene[/h2]
Last but definitely not least on our major features list, we have added a more proper intro to the game. The intro involves a guard walking the player from their cell to the SCP-173 containment chamber. Players are invisible to each other during this scene, and upon the completion of the scene, players are sent to a waiting room for the remaining players to finish the intro. The intro can be skipped on relay and LAN hosted games.


Minor Features

• Added scrolling credits to the home screen.
  
• SCP-106 Containment Chamber lights flicker after recontainment for a brief period of time, shield doors close during recontainment (the logo on the monitors also spin upon recontainment).
  
• Random Door Opening: Doors will open randomly at the start of the game to simulate doors left open during a breach. Chance of a door being open on spawn can be configured.
  
• Body Identification: Bodies can be interacted with to view the player's name and cause of death. Can be toggled in server config.
  
• Outdated box: Automatically determines if the game is outdated, and if so inform the player that their game needs to be updated.
  
• Added dead scientist & janitor bodies to the closet room that can be inspected.
  
• Added a death animation to the guard at the start of the game.
  
• Removed the unused large screen in the SCP-939 elevator hallway.

• Added "openalldoors" command to open every door on the map, with the exception of elevator doors, clean room doors, and locked checkpoints.
  
• Removed "play" and "stop" chat commands (these commands were related to video monitors, which have been removed from the game).
  
• Added "173" to the "contain" command, which will prevent 173 from spawning, close his door, and place a fake 173 in the chamber.
  
• Added "speed [n]" command to increase player's overall speed multiplier by n (1 = normal, 0.5 = half, 2 = double).
  

• Fixed some map generation collision issues

Hi all, short announcement here for those whose primary language is not English.

We are proud to announce that the SCP: Escape Together store page & currently existing achievements are now available in multiple languages! This includes the game's description, early access answers, and all currently existing achievement names and descriptions.

We have been working on allowing ET to be played by users around the world, regardless of language barriers. We already have a couple of non-English servers that are hosted by members of our community. Now, a few of our community members have joined us in translating the store page, achievements, and - in the future - content in-game (coming soon).

Credits go to the following users for translating the store page into different languages.

• Alpha - Turkish
  
• CoronaCreeper & Foxxxx - Polish
  
• Frisson - Portuguese
  
• dedeijp - Portuguese (BR)
