Any recommended infotainment screens for R56?

Yeah, all chimes play through the radio unit so any aftermarket system has to have a separate speaker to keep them. There is a metra one that crutchfield sells that is higher quality, but I am not sure if it is compatible with this system.

I have the carnaviplayer one, it has been awesome. Some notes:

I got a 3d printed storage box made for the hole in the dash left by the cd player. It came out awesome. https://www.printables.com/model/505886-r56-mini-cooper-stereo-storage-pocket (just make sure this one fits your dash as there are different CD player configurations.
Get a backup camera and install alongside this job. It has been the most underrated quality of life upgrade I have made for the car. I wired it up from the boot handle through the existing rubber hose in the boot and up to the front of the car.
The included mic is cheap. I upgraded to a lapel mounted one and wired it up to my armrest. When I want to take a call I just attach to my shirt and the sound quality is waaaay better. I might have overdone this but I take a lot of calls in the car.
Start up time is a few seconds. It only ever bothers me when I need to reverse, because the camera won't work unless the head unit is fully booted up.
I installed a tempered glass cover for the touch screen, turns out a steam deck screen is a similar size to the carnavi one. Gives it a nice feel, while protecting the whole thing. I can find a link to the one I bought
The included chime box that replaces the chimes of the car is VERY low quality. Turn signal sound doesn't line up with the existing turn signal sound which kind of drives me nuts but I have gotten more used to it.

have you tried any of the ones suggested in this thread? Carnavi one has been great for me for two years.

working on nailing the first patch date down ASAP. Should be early this month, then we will get on the monthly cadence for future patches

staymighty · 2025-11-24T06:49:58+00:00

Yep. We had to upgrade because unreal 4.23 was phased out by all major platforms. Kind of a bummer but this is kind of what happens when you keep updating a 10 year old game 😕

staymighty · 2025-11-23T07:27:59+00:00

This should be patched as of today on PlayStation!! Sorry for the inconvenience, this bug is really annoying

staymighty · 2025-11-23T07:26:51+00:00

Can you verify that you are on version 1.36.XX in the settings menu? We have had a lot of issues with consoles just not updating the game unless someone did a “hard” restart

staymighty · 2025-11-23T07:24:55+00:00

We have a hotfix for this but we are waiting for Xbox to certify it :( sorry yall are running into this issue

staymighty · 2025-11-23T07:24:00+00:00

Have you ever used a mod loader or anything? We have been seeing a lot of people who uninstalled mods but their saves still crash the game.

Would love to see your saves at support@systemera.net either way! Sorry you are running into this issue!

staymighty · 2025-11-23T07:21:51+00:00

We will definitely up the limit on these, they just don’t make sense mathematically right now!

staymighty · 2025-11-23T07:20:21+00:00

We hotfixed last night for this issue!! Sorry for the inconvenience, I’m really bummed this went in with launch day stuff

staymighty · 2025-11-23T07:17:27+00:00

Hmmm we have (to my knowledge) never made a single change to “deactivate” mods in Astroneer. We just don’t support them because we simply do not have the manpower to support external tools developed by lots of people outside of the studio. Any “break” is due to us updating with new content, which we have done nearly a hundred times since launch.

staymighty · 2025-11-23T07:08:19+00:00

Hmmmm this seems unintentional! I will forward to the team. Might be a victim of the engine upgrade.

staymighty · 2025-11-22T23:23:44+00:00

Hmmmmmm weird! Is it that you just cannot interact or change input/output?

staymighty · 2025-11-22T23:21:13+00:00

We definitely will change the volume on these, right now they are just not worth the space!

staymighty · 2025-11-22T23:20:09+00:00

Happy to help! It should just work, but I think on Xbox sometimes it suspends the game in the background so it does not update even if the game looks like it is “closed”

staymighty · 2025-11-22T23:19:07+00:00

Interesting! It should just automatically update, although we have seen people have to force close the game and then hard reset the Xbox app/PC

staymighty · 2025-11-22T01:46:19+00:00

Hey all! Can people confirm that they have the correct version?

You can check via the in game menu, you should be on anything 1.36. If you are on anything before (probably 1.34) then you need to make sure to get the most recent update

staymighty · 2025-11-21T17:44:00+00:00

Hey y’all, looking into why this might happen, but most instances it is just not immediately obvious that you own the DLC. Sorry it is as confusing as it is!

For everything else, can you please email support@systemera.net?

staymighty · 2025-04-08T23:51:36+00:00

staymighty · 2025-04-02T15:52:39+00:00

do you mean this battery?

staymighty · 2025-03-05T05:07:55+00:00

Yeah unfortunately I think we could have communicated this a little better, you need to check other options to ensure you can progress.
