About updating
As you hopefully can tell, I'm very active here and on the discord trying to help everyone, listening to improvements and fixes that need to get done. And I'd make patches every day if I could . (I do, but more on that later) And two updates have already been released. But I recently notices a few bug reports where folks were using a version with issues that had already been fixed.. So the main problem here is, that if you open steam and within lets say 20 seconds open bulwark, Steam does not get the time to quietly update the game, and you are missing the patches , and you won't even realize it. An example : some folks for a while had that issue where you only got the millwright commander that buffs wood extractors and provides a wood extractor. I re balanced that event as I saw all the requests on where to get more extractors (conquest, alignment and random encounters). I made a mistake and for many hours folks reported that all random encounters where the wood lady. Yet that bug was reported and fixed within 10 minutes (I was tired and did a last minute change after QA, won't happen again). But most importantly not everybody got that fix. This is not ideal.So here are 4 ways to make sure you are up to date.
[olist]Did you say beta patch?
Yes there is a beta patch you can turn on in properties/betas. It will give you my rapidly updating beta patch. These are untested features and fixes , so do this and you might find new bugs. If you do report them in the discord or forums, because that is super useful. so for instance stuff that is in the current beta patch but hasn't passed Wired Productions QA is :- when you save during a loss of surveyor , you will get a new one at load
- when you try to assign captains during a loss of surveyor the menu won't lock
- the pause menu has buttons to go to the soultree screen
- the pause menu has buttons to go to the inventory screen (so many buttons)
- fixed the menu overlap on max UI scale
