There is nothing in particular you need to do to get to his route. It unlocks naturally with a specific choice in the common route (choose to hide instead of run when giving the option during the sequence where the MC is in the abandoned district.)
While it shouldn't be required, please consider starting a new game to begin his route.
There shouldn't be any save compatibility issues, however, there were minor changes to some of the other routes (primarily typo fixes or minor wording changes for continuity) as well. If you do run into a game-breaking error after loading an old save, please start a new game and see if the error still occurs before you report it.
Reuben's route is the next route I am working to complete. It is currently about 60% drafted and my focus for the next month or two will be getting it drafted and fully edited.
AI: improvement for calculating if we can afford units or not.
AI: limiting number of aircraft carriers/etc. built if not enough planes are available.
AI: filling aircraft carrier with troops improved by going to location where there are available planes or helicopters.
AI: increased building of transport ships and barges.
AI: limiting number of flying transports construction if too many are unused.
AI: improved finding of attack locations. Prevents targeting of walls, i.e. focuses on structures of interest more.
AI: builds bases slightly faster due to better assignment of workers.
AI: limiting the number of airfields (was too many before).

AI Loop: will use less resources e.g. when a game hasn't started yet or is finished (to save energy).
Attack Radii: now more visible and animated by default.
Chinook Auto-Unloading (Trial): this is a test to always have chinooks auto-unload their troops when they land. Works nicely in combination with multi-waypaths where they return to e.g. the original destination when unloaded. Please provide feedback!
UI: Indicator "No Power" added if a structure isn't connected to power.
UI: not showing parachute in UI for troops (only showing the parachute on the map when parachuting down).

Keyboard Shortcuts F01-F24: to select hosted troops.
Keyboard Shortcuts F05(!)-F24: to build troops inside factories.
Keyboard: shortcuts 'M' and 'N' for chat removed as they interfere with other key bindings. Use ENTER (or ENTER+SHIFT) instead.
Keyboard & Building: pressing SHIFT during building allows to place 1x1 objects in an area on the map (ditto landmines).

Balancing: Napalm troops slightly more expensive.
Balancing: mechanized troops slightly weaker against laser.
Balancing: troops are now about 20-30% faster to build.
Balancing: gas extractor for hover takes longer to initialize.
Balancing: walls are now slightly faster to build.
Balancing: bombers slightly stronger against missiles.
Balancing: satellite stations can now be captured by assimilators also.
Balancing: assimilator restores 50% of health (not just 25%) when taking over.

Sound FX: audio effects for targeting are only repeated if (1) a unit or group has stopped moving or (2) a new selection was initiated.
Manual: explained that multiplayer games can potentially be deleted by the moderators (e.g. ganging in non-gang games, farming of rating points etc.).
Manual: explained in more detail that circumventing the spam filter via modified binary might result in appropriate actions against a player.
Admin Guide: the information how to access the moderator inbox has been moved from the pinned post into the admin guide. It's the "Moderator Email" section.
Discord Game SDK: integrated so the status is correctly displayed in Discord. There is also an option to spectate or join games now.

Steam Binary | IMPORTANT: I updated the Steam binary to better support Mac OS on M1 CPU. It's possible that the update inside Steam doesn't properly work, especially on Windows. Please uninstall the game first, then reboot and then reinstall if you are having problems. In some cases, also delete "jre" directory inside the game's folder inside Steam before reinstalling it. Sorry for the troubles.

Bugfix: map does not continue scrolling when the game window is out of focus.
Bugfix: plane wreck 03 could not be removed by the build robots (potentially blocking the AI from working correctly).
Bugfix: robo mechanic would not automatically repair troops (was only checking structures which it could not repair anyways).
Bugfix: intro mission tutorial not working properly if less than 3 battle battle tanks were fully built before the last 4.+ one was constructed.

UNDECEMBER will be undergoing a server patch on Oct. 13 to address existing issues.
Please refer to the following information for details.
[Oct. 13 Server Patch]
1. Server Patch Schedule : Oct. 13 2022 13:00 (UTC+9) * Server patch will proceed without maintenance, * Game is available to play while the server patch is underway.
2. Server Patch Details - Addressed the issue where Statue EXP could not be received from Chaos Dungeon.
3. NOTES - Please exit the game completely and log in again for the patch to be applied. - The Chaos Dungeon and Auction House will be unavailable 10 minutes before/after the patch.
Please be advised that players may experience temporary disconnections while the patch is underway. UNDECEMBER will strive to provide a more stable service.
It's finally the time everyone's been waiting for - the Fawn VA patch is now live on Steam!
Here's a quick list of changes:
Fawn route audio implemented
Audio adjusted in all other parts of the game
Some CGs adjusted
Settings adjusted
Minor text inconsistencies adjusted
We're finally at the point where the game is fully voiced! It's taken a long time, and along the way we've had many, MANY people assisting us with getting the voice acting complete.
This wouldn't have been doable without the help of our audio editor, Cats on a Lilypad Studios. Check them out on Twitter if you've enjoyed The Divine Speaker - I think their games will be right up your alley.
A quick note: You may experience issues with your save files if they are within Fawn's route. We've made major changes to the line identifiers that make our voice acting work, so old saves can be unstable. If you have any problems with your saves, start a new game and skip through to where you were up to.
There we have it! As a final little plug, our new game Dreambound (BL mystery visual novel) has 12 hours left on Kickstarter! If you like BL, pretty art and a (hopefully!!!) interesting story, then check it out here.
We also have one opportunity left to create a character that will be in our next The Divine Speaker game (a sequel that follows Nox and Soren!).
That's all for now! I really hope you enjoy The Divine Speaker!
This is hopefully the last little patch before Timeless Tyrants goes live. Thank you to those sharing bugs and feedback. That has helped out so much!
Notes
-Bug Fix: Some auto job settings/info would not update when changing rooms/jobs. -Bug Fix: Floating trees. Ya. -Bug Fix: Entities having multiple companions.

As well, the lectern of knowledge is now unlocked there too. -Tuning: Added some dialogue for discovering immortality tombs to communicate that players should use the free job on stasis crystals. -Tuning: Increased the time it takes for trees to mature. -Polish: Added feedback to job buttons in the toolbar menu to indicate when the settlement doesn't have anyone with the required skill. -Polish: Added additional hotkeys to skill toggles to enable/disable/reset all skills for an entity.
I might put out one very small patch after this, but we'll see. If you see anything crazy, let me know!
