This updates sees an overhaul on how your saves are structured and displayed. While all of it is in a new jacket, the save files themselves remain largely unchanged, and should not have any issues being loaded.
[h2]Saves[/h2]
- Saves are now stored per town / community in a folder.
- If you start your game with the old save file storage, a migration tool will move your saves to the correct folder structure. If there are any communities with the same name, they'll be placed in the same folder. This operation will only move files, not delete them.
- Due to the new folder structure, new towns may not have the same name as any saved town.
- Added a button to the main menu to continue your latest save.
- The load menu now shows all your towns, and the save files related to them.
- Instead of showing playtime on a save, a save now displays how many days you've survived instead. Older saves will show 0 days until saved in this version.
- Saves now display their size and file name as well.
- Added a button to open your save folder in file explorer.
- The pause menu now has a load button where you can load up older saves, or a different town.
- The pause menu now has a "Save As" button that displays all the saves of your current town. Here you can make a save file, or overwrite an existing save.
- The pause menu now has a "Save" button which will overwrite the most recent save of this town.
- The save overwrite prompt now warns you which save you're about to overwrite.
- Auto-saves are now made at the end of each day, instead of every 10 minutes. A maximum amount can still be set in the options menu, and the oldest auto-save will be overwritten if you exceed the set number.
[h2]Changes / Fixes[/h2]
- Updated fonts so they switch colors correctly in different languages.
- Fixed save not loading if the resources on a landmark were changed and a drifter was in the process of salvaging it.
[h2]Balancing[/h2]
- Reduced fishing time of drifters using the fishing chair.
- Slightly reduced drying times for Dried Bottlefish and Dried Unbottled Fish.
- Increased amount of starting food.
- Polluted drifters now lose all pollution when sleeping through Microbe-Plastics
