ICARUS Hotfix 3.0.11 DangerousHorizons Patch Notes (22nd May 2026)
A small but focused hotfix lands for ICARUS today, targeting a performance leak tied to Gas Flyer visual effects and tidying up the Timber Extraction Unit added in Week 233.

Two fixes, but one of them matters more than it sounds. Hotfix 3.0.11 DangerousHorizons is live today, and the Gas Flyer VFX culling performance leak is the headline item. A leak like that quietly drains performance over time, particularly in sessions where Gas Flyers are spawning frequently, so getting it patched out quickly is the right call.
The second fix adjusts Biolab pin positions on the Timber Extraction Unit, the Legendary circular saw that arrived in the Week 233 update earlier today. Pin position tweaks are minor on paper, but if you're already deep into building out that tool's 12 alterations, it's good to know the kinks are being ironed out the same day.
Not a flashy update, and I wouldn't expect it to be. This is exactly what a hotfix should look like: targeted, fast, and focused on things that were actively causing problems. Full patch notes below.
