UPDATES

Patch notes for Star Forest Online.

← Back to the realm

1 September 2026

• NEW Builds are now stored per world instead of per account. Other players can see your base and the nameplate showing who owns it. Only the owner can edit or remove their own pieces.
• NEW Added the Builder's Plan, 40 gold from the shop. Opens build mode for foundations, walls, windows and stairs in wood or stone. Placing stone over an existing wood piece upgrades it and refunds half the wood.
• NEW Added doors, opened with E and locked with Shift+E. Only the owner can lock or unlock. Added three roof styles: gable, hip and thatch. Storeys above you turn translucent while you're inside.
• FIXED Floors could not be placed. Floors and roofs now target the storey above you, so they can be placed from the ground.
• NEW Added a world select screen before entry, showing live player count out of 1,000. World 1 — Emberfall is open. World 2 — Thornhollow is not yet available.
• IMPROVED Chopping now scales with your Woodcutting level — the further you are past a tree's requirement, the faster it falls. Logs go straight to your bag.
