Check the latest documented build, recent compatibility notes and the kinds of issues that usually show up after a major No Man's Sky update.
Latest documented build 1.20.0
Current status Core editing is stable; fresh patch content can need follow-up work
Patch-readiness note Core editing is stable, but the newest patch content can need follow-up updates.
Known notes New items, rewards and platform path changes can lag after major patches.
Compatibility note
Patch-day gaps happen
Fresh updates can leave some rewards, parts or save fields incomplete for a while even when the core editor still works.
Compatibility note
Game Pass can change faster than Steam or GOG
If save detection breaks on Game Pass, check the current path before you assume the editor itself is broken.

| NMS update | Editor version | Status | Notes | Date |

Known limitations
Known limits and patch lag.
New rewards, items and platform quirks do not always arrive at the same speed.
- Major No Man's Sky updates can add items, rewards or JSON sections faster than the editor mappings are updated.
- Game Pass and Microsoft Store save paths can change, so save discovery is not equally stable across all platforms.
- PS4 editing still depends on Save Wizard and follows its own workflow.
- Raw JSON, mission repair and seed-level edits are advanced work.
- Community workarounds and hotfixes can exist, but they are not the same thing as official GoatFungus files.
