Achievements
Achievements are awarded by performing certain actions or via game progression. They are available on both Steam and the Epic Games Store.[1][2][3]
Awarding
Achievements are awarded by triggering certain actions, or by Milestone, MAM, or Space Elevator Project Assembly Phase progression. All achievements can be unlocked within a single save file.[4]
You can not retroactively be awarded an achievement by loading an older game save, even if the requirements for a specific achievement were completed before.[5]
- Achievements related to some action can be awarded by doing the action again.
- Achievements related to progression can only be awarded if that progression had not already been completed, or by starting a new game save.[6]
The use of Advanced Game Settings disables ability for all achievements to be awarded.[7][8]
The use of mods or save editors will not disable the ability for achievements to be awarded.[9][10]
Offline play
Any achievements earned while playing offline will NOT be awarded after you go online. Achievements unlocked by triggering a certain action can be triggered again, but achievements related to progression are lost unless the last online save is loaded. This applies to both Steam and Epic Games.[11]

Trivia
- On August 29, 2024, the Steam client was updated to list the achievements expected to release with version 1.0.[13]
- This change did not happen on the Epic Games Store.
- Due to in-game triggers not being implemented, achievements couldn't be awarded to players before Patch 1.0
- During the Closed Alpha phase, Coffee Stain Studios had stated that achievements will most likely be added after the Alpha period to prevent exploitation due to bugs or imbalances.[14] Later, in 2020, they stated that achievements won't come any time soon until the game is finalized in design and balance.[15]
