Version differences
Unstable
The Unstable version (included with the game on Steam) is an unstable release that "may destroy your saves and be generally, well, unstable."[5] Updates are usually released to the Unstable version in advance for public testing, before being pushed to the main branch, and Steam Workshop mods cannot normally be accessed by the Unstable version. Between updates, however, the Unstable version is otherwise exactly the same as the standard version.
Game data
Configuration file(s) location
System | Location |
---|---|
Windows | <path-to-game>\storage\starbound.config[Note 1] |
Microsoft Store | %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Starbound\starbound.config |
macOS (OS X) | <path-to-game>/storage/starbound.config |
Linux | <path-to-game>/storage/starbound.config |
- The path to the
storage
directory can be customized by changing thestorageDirectory
option in the filesbinit.config
, which is located in the same directory as the Starbound executable.[6]

---|---|
Windows | <path-to-game>\storage\[Note 1] |
Microsoft Store | %USERPROFILE%\Documents\Starbound\ |
macOS (OS X) | <path-to-game>/storage/ |
Linux | <path-to-game>/storage/ |
- The path to the
storage
directory can be customized by changing thestorageDirectory
option in the filesbinit.config
, which is located in the same directory as the Starbound executable.[6] - The
storage/player
directory contains the save files for all characters/players along with the respective ship worlds and automated backups. - The
storage/universe
directory contains all planet worlds and systems that have been generated.
- This game does not follow the XDG Base Directory Specification on Linux.
- Save games are not being stored per user, but are shared between user accounts.
