Guardians of the Sanctree News

Hello guardians! The game has had several updates in the past few days, and the current version is 1.0.15. Please check your version number before playing!

We sincerely apologize for an issue caused by an update around 3:40 a.m. (PDT) on October 9th, which resulted in the disappearance of raw materials and outputs in factories. We have already issued an emergency fix. If you updated at that time on October 9th and encountered issues with your city operations, your previous save files are still usable. We deeply apologize for any inconvenience this has caused to your gaming experience!

[h2]In version 1.0.15, we have made significant optimizations to frame rate performance. The lag caused by a large number of NPCs and monsters in the mid-to-late game has been greatly reduced. We've also optimized memory usage to some extent, and the game now takes up about 6GB of memory in the default startup mode.[/h2]
Several other optimizations have been made in previous versions. Please check the changes below:
Version 1.0.15 (2024.10.9)

Added an "Aggressive Network Optimization" setting. In some cases, enabling this can improve network performance. The host can choose to stop waiting for high-latency players;
Fixed recurring errors in certain save files;
Optimized game performance;
Fixed white and black line issues in some frame sequences;
Added ultra-low resolution assets;
Fixed missing title image assets in some languages.
Versions 1.0.13~1.0.14 (2024.10.8)

Added an option to enter the tutorial when starting the game for the first time;
Fixed an issue where the logistics center would lose materials.
Version 1.0.12 (2024.10.7)

Door open/close states can now be saved correctly;
Fixed an issue where some monsters couldn't be killed;
Fixed animation playback issues for guest players.
Version 1.0.11 (2024.10.7)

Fixed incorrect building sizes on the map;
Fixed an issue where the third player could not join during multiplayer;

Version 1.0.10 (2024.10.7)

Version 1.0.9 (2024.10.7)

Optimized frame rate drops caused by having too many units in the game;
Fixed various display errors and water source issues for guest players;
Fixed performance issues that gradually worsened after 30 minutes of gameplay with a logistics warehouse;
It is now impossible to build workbird housing or soldier housing in dungeons.

Thank you all for your support! We've received a lot of feedback and suggestions, and there are currently over 60 recorded fixes and optimizations. However, due to limited manpower, we can't address all of them immediately. We'll try our best to release daily updates to resolve these issues and hope to start working on new content soon. Please continue sharing your feedback with us!

Enjoy your game, Guardians!

Thank you all for your feedback! Below are the detailed contents of this update, with more updates to come soon!

1.0.8
Fixed the issue where the wood mine could not be upgraded.
Fixed the issue where dismantling the advanced cutting factory still yielded a basic cutting factory.
Fixed the issue where the store displayed prices that did not match the actual prices.
Fixed the issue where killing the giant crab boss caused an error.
Now, when reloading a save, the bugs that were stuck in the bug nest due to the endless bug nest bug will be deleted.
Further optimized the stuttering issues.

[h3]Additionally, we have found that due to the large number of save files for Sanctree, the Steam cloud save feature often only synchronizes partially, resulting in many players losing progress. Therefore, we have temporarily decided to disable the cloud save feature. Once we resolve the cloud save issues, we will notify everyone immediately about its reopening!

Map saves are located in the game directory under Sanctree_Data\StreamingAssets\SanctreeSave\LevelSave\main;
character saves can be found under Sanctree_Data\StreamingAssets\SanctreeSave\CharacterSave.

You can move the folders inside to relocate your saves, and copy the folders to an external backup directory to back up your saves.
You can access the game directory by right-clicking on Bird All in your Steam library -> Manage -> Browse Local Files.[/h3]

Enjoy your game, Guardians!

The Reveal Trailer

Thank you all for your support and companionship over the past year. From the release of the first demo to this version, the game has undergone a tremendous transformation.



In the official version, you will explore 3 layers of underground space and 6 different ecological instances, with hundreds of items waiting for you to discover!

Please note! The demo save files cannot be transferred to the full version due to being outdated. As the official release approaches, the demo will undergo a reset, and we appreciate your understanding regarding any inconvenience this may cause!



You will find a more extensive tech tree, greater crafting freedom, and some convenient tools and transport buildings that were not available in the demo. Advanced gameplay features such as equipment forging and soldier trait development can also be unlocked in the mid-game tech tree.



This version is not the end for Sanctree.



Throughout next year, we will continue to provide free updates, including new protagonists, NPC skins, in-game expression communication, decorative buildings, and a city happiness system, as well as additional maps and ecosystems.
