• Deployable pooling

• Unified some LOD groups in monuments, resulting in better performance

• A few players have reported their player inventory was cleared of loot after a server restart. We have not yet been able to reproduce this. It is possible that improved player connection handling may solve this issue. If you experience a cleared inventory (player or any deployable) please submit a bug report with as much detail as possible.
  
• Force quitting the game does not disconnect you properly from the server. The next time you join the server you will be rejected, sent back to the main menu, and receive a message stating an unknown error had occurred. The next time you rejoin the server you will be good to go as normal. To avoid this issue please return to the main menu prior to force quitting the game. We will be working on an improved solution to this soon.

TLS 0.73.0

- Vhala has a "harem" quest, starting in the base hallway after the Incubus War.

- Stineford has been entirely overhauled! This is one of the biggest visual updates I've done to the game and I'm just crossing my fingers that I didn't screw something up during the upgrade.

- If Sarai was sexually restricted in your game, you can now get her to join the harem via her personal quest (if you already finished it, there's an alternate event in her tower). This is functionally the same, but involves some new conversations and dialogue variants.

- Nalili's quest now grants an additional reward, which can be found in her room even if you've already completed the quest. This is necessary for...

- A short quest that will grant a final battle item, if you've gathered all four major ingredients.

- Fuani now appears in the Renthnor Wilds guild, offering tips about all incomplete harem quests.

- Yarra's upgraded sex room now has two alternate configurations, for those who complained about the original tiles.

- Additional details around the base dependent on country scores, now covering Darghelon, Gheldaron, Zirantia, Erosia, and Rodak.

- Depending on the Entity Cohesion variable, you can see a scene resting under the tree at the Nostalgic Home.

- The final Shining Sword bonus is now available. I intend to add one more in the last optional dungeon for flex, however.

- During the Orilise segment of the elven forests sequence, the timer running out should now cause game over. This needs more testing.

- Did you know that the majority of cases refer to "Miners' Junction" but in 29 locations I accidentally wrote "Miner's Junction"? Well, not anymore!

- Bug where you could see Wendis transformed early fixed.

- Thanks to Rachnera, TLS has advanced keyboard remapping options in the System menu.

- There are now control tutorials when starting a new game.

- What may be the final investments of the game, pending any final balance tweaks.

- The placeholder in the teleportation room has finally been replaced with Riala, who will check preparedness and lead to the final battle (next time).

- One new sex scene.

- New illustrated scenes: Elleani Relief, Megail x Iris Anal, Janine Wedding Night

- Assorted bugfixing and polishing.


Updated roadmap:


This is meant to be the final open world update before the finale. I want to finish everything, including new issues that may come up, so no promises about when this one goes public.

EDIT: The update is still limited to Patreon and Subscribestar. See the blog post for details.

We are extremely thrilled to share the remarkable achievement that Lil Guardsman secured the Studio Award "for the best commercial game of the season made by larger development teams" at the Game Development World Championship today! 🎉

Prepare for the ultimate challenge in ship dismantling with the Steel Giants DLC for Ship Graveyard Simulator 2. The main new feature are four colossals:
- Tanker
- Gas carrier
- Nuclear icebreaker
- Huge container ship

To show you how colossal the difference is, on the ship - Snopkovitch, i.e. a medium-sized ship from the basic version, the number of elements is 2,646 - while in the Steel Giants one ship Pobeda, the number of elements is 38,205. 🤯

This is what one of the giants looks like compared to a car 😅





We are constantly recording your feedback on Warship DLC and with the release of Steel Giants, you can expect a major update to Warships DLC.
