Hi Everyone! In the 48 hours since launch, the community really stepped up and helped identify a few debilitating bugs all related to the same general issue with the refactor of the new engine. We rushed to deliver a day one patch with 1.0.3 but that didn't address all the issues and even created a few new ones. With 1.0.4 we believe things are now relatively stable and we can't thank you enough for your support, patience and understanding. In addition to several miscellaneous bugs, the big things addressed in this new version:
[list]
[*] Stepping while finishing a stock now works properly and doesn't break or recede back (the team and beta testers missed this since we all bought the simulation upgrade well before the first stock ended)
[*] Simulation Speed Upgrades now function as intended (a consequence of releasing 1.0.3 too quickly)
[*] YouTube Embeds have a contingency so videos that have been removed or taken down should now redirect to a fallback
[*] Linux Stability has been improved (issues with steam overlay)
[*] We have introduced a new "restitution" button in the menu on the main title screen that allows us to issue codes to provide anyone effected by these or other bugs in-game currency to compensate for lost gameplay
[*] Feedback button now appends your save state so we can reproduce bugs more quickly.
[/list]
The full version is now live with the 1.0.4 build, however the new version of the demo needs another couple hours before it will be set live.
There may well be other bugs on the horizon, this game is of unprecedented complexity for our modest non-profit, but we're committed to fixing any issues that come up as quickly as we possibly can and we're so grateful to all of you for your support and understanding.
Thanks!
