V1.5.12 - June Frontier, Balancing, Bug Fixes
Hi everyone,
V1.5.12 has just gone live, here's what's new:
The June frontier brings something a little different this month - all L1 and L2 techs are preresearched so it's a turbo-charged race to build the Large Monument!
The production processes of buildings have been tweaked behind the scenes to more accurately match production and consumption rates between buildings. Most are small changes, the biggest change comes on the cocoa farm which was way too low!
Extra stackbots have been added to many of these buildings as well as to the medium and large storage yards. Also the speed boosts of stone roads/paths and brick roads/paths have been increased by 5 and 10% respectively.
In case you missed it, The Colonists is now available to play on console! Find all the info here: https://steamcommunity.com/games/677340/announcements/detail/3085505759883522690
Once again, a big thanks to everyone providing feedback, suggestions and bug reports, see you all next month!
