Greetings survivors,

Another quick Hotfix here to solve your most reported issues.

Today we've fixed:

Saved Game

• Auto-Fix of remaining corrupted save game files not loading - now they do without problems. Do try again.

Fixed issues

• Dropdown menu optimization - now opening works smoother and faster.
• Fixed remaining instances whereby auto-collecting and visualization of leftover heaps after deconstruction resulted in empty spaces with missing key information.

This relates to build number: 1.3.22354

Remember we also have a "low performance/stability guide" for you:

• We'll be constantly optimizing the game in the following updates of which this is the 2nd.
• The risk of corrupted saves should be far lower now. Plus autosaves were too frequent in earlier builds. We suggest saving frequently and make backups of the saves from time to time
• In fairness, please don't expect miracles - if you have a low-end machine, play at lower resolution and reduce visual effects. Please check the suggested specs below.
• Our "Painterly" art style doesn't automatically mean it's "cheaper" performance-wise. There's plenty of detail, lighting and effects that will keep the GPU busy.
• The game's complexity also naturally means that the more buildings/people you have, the more power it demands, which is especially visible on fast forward (more calculations in a time frame).
