Surviving the Abyss News

Hi everyone! Today's hotfix is to our Auto-Save on some machines after some users reported that their Auto-Saves were not saving correctly.
Patch 0.1.4.11 will be released later this week!

[h3]Bug Fix:[/h3]

• Fixed issue where Auto-Save was not working for some users.
  

Hi everyone! Today's hotfix is a change to prevent an issue that was found with Powerlines and Tunnels which caused issues with Save Load and building construction. As this issue was caused by holding shift to force right angle Tunnels and Powerlines, we have decided to remove this feature temporarily.

Patch 0.1.4.11 will be released next week!

[h3]Bug Fix:[/h3]

• Removed right angle tunnels and powerlines, preventing powerlines from breaking and causing knock on effects with save/load.
