Update 0.2.57 is live!
This will be the
last 2024 Patch and we end the year with a banger. A
major rework of the scenarios 4,5 and 6 as well as a slight performance boost and as usual a lot of fixes and quality of life features. Be aware that the rework of the scenarios might break some saves from those scenarios. You can still load old games but your buildings might no longer be valid. Also the adjusted gameplay settings will only be in affect when restarting a scenario not when loading an old save.
