Sengoku Dynasty News

Youkoso!

With the Ikigai update out now for a few days and you hopefully playing and enjoying it, we thought it would be a great idea to start a new round of Questions and Answers.

Do you have any questions about Ikigai? Post them here! We collect your questions till 11 September 2024.

What features would you like to see in the 1.0 release of Sengoku Dynasty?

Let’s start!

[h3]Fixed[/h3]

• Fixed some pre-built villages being cut-off by invisible walls.
  
• World rendering is visible during loading a save file.
  
• Fixed some animations for consumables using a leather sack (the animation will now play with no item).
  
• Fixed the burnt buildings around the new bandit camp respawning after loading a save file.
  
• Fixed that ice production cannot be set up remotely.
  
• Fixed tools’ durability not properly displayed in the Production slot.

[h3]Added[/h3]

• Added item type description of heavy and light armor for outfits.
  
• Added “not enough resources” notification in special projects.
  

[h3]Known “issue”[/h3]
It is recommended to travel to the prototype bandit encampment near Iwasaki. You can find it to the East across the river. A bit to the South from there you can find two small settlements with burnt houses. Tear them down as they might affect performance on older save games (prior to today’s hotfix). Bring axes!

Youkoso!

[h3]Known Issues (Updated) [/h3]

• You may need to reset production and pass one season for some of the changes to take effect

• Consumption prediction is not precise due to not considering input items that will be distributed to workplaces, and not available for consumption
  
• Forager’s Hut buildings will not be compatible with your save – rebuild them to enjoy the new model
  
• Some players may need to reset their Controls to default to enable new combat, if playing from an older save
  
• Combat will switch camera automatically to TPP. You can override this by enabling FPP combat in the gameplay settings, but please be aware the new combat in FPP is not fully implemented yet.
  
• Sometimes, when coop players are far from each other, and one engages a bandit with a bow from a long distance, the bandits' movement may glitch.
  
• To fully test out the new combat system, please head on to the prototype bandit camp which can be found near Iwasaki, on the other side of the river to the east.
