Sapiens News

Beta 19 is a small update which mostly focuses on bugs and contains the following fixes:

• Fixes various crashing bugs.
  
• Fixes issue allowing both research and fill orders to be queued on the same hex
  
• Automatic pausing when the app window loses focus is now optional in the settings, and turned off by default
  
• Fixes AI issue that caused them to occasionally wander away near the end of the day for no apparent reason
  
• If a wait order has been issued, it is now removed automatically when you issue a standard move order
  
• Fixes issue where they couldn't build 4x4 floors from adjacent floors, and needed closer access
  
• When starting a new world, burning large pine cones as fuel is now disabled by default
  
• There is now a chance of receiving a small rock when digging soil
  
• Adds Cyrillic and Korean fonts for better localization mod support. More fonts to come soon.
  
• Fixes crash when using international fonts at low resolutions
  

It might be a little longer until the next update now, as I want to tackle a few larger tasks. But it should still be ready within the next week or two.

Thanks again for all of the feedback and bug reports.

City builders and colony sims usually take a dedicated tack, focusing on one period, but recent indie release Sapiens is going all-in on scale. Starting with two people, you'll lead your tribe through "thousands of years of technological breakthroughs."..

Hi everyone, thanks again for all of the feedback and bug reports.

Beta 18 is a small hotfix update which fixes 3 bugs:

• Fixes bugs where they would get stuck in loops trying to eat flax seeds. They also now won't attempt to eat flax seeds unless you enable it in the resources panel.
  
• Fixes issue selecting storage areas when you are standing very close to them
  
• Fixes issues with the queuing up of research orders
  

I'll be continuing to send out hotfixes to fix any major bugs, crashes, or issues with worlds loading over the next few days, but also will be starting on new features and content next week. Can't wait!

Dave

Hi everyone, thank you very much for all of the feedback and bug reports.

It's been a very busy couple of days since launch, but I'm now able to start coding again, so I've started by just fixing a couple of crashing bugs. I've had a few reports where worlds have failed to load, so if that's happened to you, this will hopefully fix it.

If you do hit any crashes, especially if your world won't load, please use the button in the settings menu to send a bug report, and be sure to include the world save. Then I will be able to fix the issue quickly. Any bugs causing worlds to fail to load will always be my top priority.

More fixes and updates to come soon!

Hi everyone, majicDave here.

I’m thrilled to launch Sapiens into Steam Early Access. It’s time to lead your tribe!

[h2]Early Access Roadmap[/h2]


This Early Access release is only the beginning. The above shows you some ideas of what’s next in terms of content and features. As I will be taking on board community feedback and suggestions, the roadmap isn’t set in stone and the order may change, but it should give you a good general idea of Sapiens moving forward.

[h2]Feedback & Community[/h2]

I’m excited for you all to play what I’ve been hard at work on and hear your feedback. I really do want to hear your ideas and hear about your triumphs and struggles in Sapiens.

Feel free to post here in the Steam forums, or better yet, drop by the official Discord to join our community, where I regularly post progress updates. I’m just one man making a big game, so I expect the days ahead to be crazy busy, yet I’ll be hard at work to make my way through all your feedback, reports, and suggestions.

Thank you so much for your interest and support. I hope you enjoy my game! If you do, it would mean the world to me if you left a review or comment. More news and updates from me coming soon.

Cheers,
Dave
