UPDATE 1.2 SNEAK PEEK

Let’s have a quick glance at the next free update from the post-release roadmap.

The big headline feature of this update is the Production/Consumption Trends window. It will include a 30-minute resource history graph and a 5-minute “latest” interactable graph with an option to select a point on it and check the log of resource operations.

We’re also working on Blightpost upgrades (with a new visual model), new working effect icons, a new supported language (Latin American Spanish), and unique art for each of our World Events. Here’s a sneak peek at one of them:

We aim to release the update in March and we’ll share more previews soon.

PATCH 1.1.6 CHANGELOG

Lastly, here’s the full changelog for today’s Patch 1.1.6:

• Fixed a bug that would occasionally cause haulers and hauling carts to get stuck.
• Fixed a rare bug that caused some settlement saves to get corrupted.
• Fixed a bug where the numbers would sometimes disappear from the need icons in the species menu.
• Fixed a bug that caused the Blood Flower spawn animation not to play when the game was paused.
• Fixed a bug that allowed a map to be played with both the Ominous Presence modifier and the Flooded Mines modifier.
  • Settlements started before this hotfix will still have both effects active. The fix will only prevent this from happening in future games.

• Fixed a bug where the progress of a standing level would sometimes not update correctly.
• Fixed a bug that caused some tooltips to scale incorrectly in the Thai version of the game.
• Fixed a bug that allowed production limits to be set as negative numbers.
• Fixed a bug where the camera would reset when the options menu was opened.
• Fixed a bug that made it possible to have both the Unyielding Corruption Forest Mystery and the Monastery of the Holy Flame modifier in the same game.
  • Settlements started before this hotfix will still have both effects active. The fix will only prevent this from happening in future games.
• Fixed a bug where the camera would sometimes behave strangely when going into tree marker mode while a building was selected.
• Fixed a bug where a disabled recipe in the Blight Post would not cause the recipe slot to be greyed out.
• Buying an automaton upgrade in a deactivated Geyser Pump will now automatically activate the building.

Please make sure your game is updated to version 1.1.6.

May the storm be gentle on you,
Eremite Games
