Why the guide exists
Players need short operational answers while a fast-changing Early Access game creates incomplete or conflicting information. The guide turns official announcements, patch notes, and directly verified build observations into durable player-intent pages.
Editorial method
Each version-sensitive claim carries a source, checked time, build context, and confidence level. Official sources take precedence; community reports remain labeled and pending fields are never rendered as facts.
Corrections and updates
Material corrections update the typed registry and every route that consumes the fact. Reports should include the route, current build, claim, and a source or repeatable observation through the contact channel.
Source registry
Source review dates describe when that source was checked. Older announcements remain dated history, even when a current guide references them. Shared archive links identify the exact announcement by title and date.
