Greetings players! The newest patch (0.19.17) is now live on all platforms on the experimental branch. Please 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.

[h3]Bugs and Fixes[/h3]

Fixed several crash occurrences.
Fixed the issue that allowed usage of unfinished for Feast planning.
Fixed the issue where Zealots would drink their ass off upon loading and be stuck in the drinking/unconscious cycle.
Potential fix for the lag during hunting issue.

Esc key functionality and UI game pausing has been recoded for the sake of stability and consistency. This might have an unwanted effect where some panels don't pause the game when they should or ESC closes the wrong window or even crashes the game. Please keep an eye out on this and report if you can.

[h3]Known issues:[/h3]

Some text keys are missing.
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.

DISCLAIMERS:
⚠️ We decided to keep Dev version of the game on the experimental branch on Steam, 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.
⚠️ Also, at the moment, the experimental and the main branch are different. You should not play saves from the experimental branch on the main one as it can cause various bugs - please avoid doing this.

As always, use F10 and/or the experimental bug subforum for reporting experimental issues. If you want more dynamic/direct communication - head over to our Discord server. Even though we might not reply, we are reading everything. Thank you!

[h3]Bugs and Fixes[/h3]

Fixed several crash occurrences.
Fixed the issue where settlers would never start a production on the Apothecary table, despite having all of the necessary requirements..
Fixed the issue where settlers would ignore Gardening priority.
Fixed the issue where canceling a building in construction wouldn’t give resources back.
Fixed the issue where a pen wouldn't be properly detected in some cases.
Fixed the issue where wounds would not inflict pain. This prevented settlers from fainting because of wounds, which in turn, would make them die more often in combat
Fixed the issue where the player triggered event would be canceled if you save & load the game during that player triggered event.

Thermal model for ice has received a bit of balancing and should be more consistent overall.

Youtube, TikTok, and Reddit links/icons are added to the Main Menu.

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.
