Moon Sweepers multiplayer: public games and crew controls

Understand the public-game warning and where to find crew controls before opening your Moon to other players.

01 / FIELD NOTES

What happens when a game is public?

The 1.0.5 game confirmation warns that anyone on Steam can join a public Moon and change it, including removing buildings and spending money. The warning says those changes are saved. Read the in-game prompt before starting a public game or switching an existing crew to public.

The developer added a confirmation for both actions in 1.0.5. This guidance describes the warning, not an independently tested account of every permission or multiplayer edge case.

02 / FIELD NOTES

Find your crew controls

The warning points to Esc > YOUR CREW for kicking or banning players. Check the in-game menu and choose the appropriate action if you need to manage your session.

Before inviting or opening a shared world, agree with your crew on building, spending and changes to the base. Check the current save and game settings yourself; the warning does not describe every possible multiplayer permission.

03 / FIELD NOTES

Plan changes to a shared base

If you are changing a shared production line, follow its output route and tell your crew which machines and belts are being moved. In 1.0.5, attached belts can follow a moved structure when they can reach, but the game can report that a belt could not follow.

Use the building and conveyor guides to review connections after a move. For a persistent problem, record the game version and whether it occurs as host or guest before reporting it.

Frequently asked questions

Can players change my Moon in a public game?

Where can I kick or ban a player?

The in-game warning points to Esc > YOUR CREW. Check the current game menu for the available controls.

Sources & scope

Where included, static game values come from build f87fd7e5. Selected values were compared with the newer 0121bf5e package, but neither build has been independently mapped to a Steam patch number. Official patch claims cite the developer; community reports are observations, not verified fixes. The guidance has not been tested in-game.
