Greetings, medievalists!
The newest patch (0.25.26) is now live on all platforms. Save your progress and restart your game client to update. You should be able to load normally and continue playing. If you have any problems, please let us know.
Fixed several crash occurrences.
Fixed the crash that prevented some saves from being loaded.
Fixed the issue where the torches were not protecting animals after loading the save.
Fixed the issue that caused raiders to ignore undrafted Settlers during their attack.
If your settlers are experiencing weird animations with some actions, be sure to turn off V-sync and cap the game's FPS in the game's options. Cap it to 60fps. If the issue persists, cap it at 30.
Assigned Pets don't sleep with owners.
Some text keys are still not translated.
Player-triggered events don't have sound effects
Settlers will not refuel torches if there is no floor/ground beneath them.
Settlers will not choose the closest production building (if there are more of the same type), but the one that has a production set first in the global list of productions.
DISCLAIMER: The experimental and the main branch have the same version of the game. However, on the experimental branch, we decided to keep the Dev version of the game, and that means that a Dev log with red text will appear from time to time. This will help us get more info from your side when crashes and bug reports occur. If you are annoyed by this, please switch to the main branch to experience the game without the red text.
With this update
Now you can select your own background track from settings.
Streak loss penalty now only applies when user submits the text by pressing SPACE.
Leaderboards can now be accessed from outside of the game play as well, i.e. from the Title Screen and Main Menu.
A temporary fix is applied on Beyond perk where instead of multiplying it is add the Red key upgrades.
Fixed issue with Classic Increment not getting restored to original value.
We're aware of a lot more issues and trying address them one at a time. Thanks to this great community for their input and we hope we'll not disappoint you.
