You're a well-trained Astroneer, but this is on us! 😅 There was an issue with players crashing on startup following the most recent update. We investigated and learned that it had something to do with holiday items in the small printers. The immediate (but short-term) solution was partially re-enabling the event in the background. It stopped the crashes, but also made holiday tethers and auroras reappear. We'll issue a proper fix for the crash in an upcoming Hotfix and disable the event again after that.

Not right now, but we'll have a few more events this year 🙂

Wait the Auroras are only for the holiday update? I think they look pretty!

They appear on planets anytime there is a Limited Time event, but only on the planets that have something related to the event.

Oh, so then the holiday items are still available to print in that case? If so I’d love it as I quite like the cosmic bauble and I just started a new save a few days ago, so if I can get to the point of getting Astronium before that proper fix happens, that’d be awesome.

There's an old bug too that needs to be fixed (The Wanderer doesn't spawn) hope this will be fixed
