| Quickpatch v1.623b Hi royals! This is another quickpatch because I wanted to use the newest version of our engine which should be more stable on finicky systems. But I also took the opportunity to fix two leftover bugs in the codex and make it possible for modders to use the "vision" cheat functionality. That's litterally the entire changelog, look for yourself: · \ Fixed a bug in the codex where card panels woul… | 24554104 | |
| Patch Notes for v1.623: Another round of bugfixes Hi Royals! Well, I was self-indulgent and hid a funny interaction in the last patch, and now I reap the consequences. There were a few new bugs, and it also made some pre-existing bugs more noticeable. So here's a new patch that fixes all that! We also found out that there was an issue with our engine, where one of the libraries it uses would fail to do its job properly on computers with an ARM… | 24220595 | |

| Patch Notes for v1.622: Bugfixes Hello Royals!

| Patch notes for v1.620: More bugfixes Hello Royals, Here's another patch just in time for your regal weekend! This one fixes almost all the issues that were reported to us.

We'll take care of both these issues next week! If you find any other bugs, please… | 22839057 | |
| Patch Notes for v1.619: Bugfixes Hi Royals, Thank you so much for all the love on the Bad Company update!

| Shotgun King 1.6: Bad Company Update - Available Now!major Dear Royals, This month Shotgun King turns 4 years old. 4 years in which more than half a million of you got the game and made it the success it is.

What better way, in fact, to celebrate Shotgun King’s 4th anniversary, than by inviting his few scattered remaini… | 22744976 | |
| Crashfix on tutorial Hi royals, It has come to our attention that the last build broke the tutorial. Now we all know that you're all very intelligent (perhaps more intelligent than players of other games, but we don't have the numbers) and you certainly never needed a tutorial in the first place, but nonetheless we have finally taken the time to fix the crash. That's the only change on this version. If anything els… | 20667153 | |

| Patch notes for v1.515g: German translation update Hi all, This is a really tiny patch, since we didn't get any new bug reports since v1.515f! (yay for that!) When we did the 1.5 update, we tried to have all the translations updated in time for it, and for the most part we succeeded. But sadly the person was going to take care of the German translation had some last minute personal issues to deal with. Initially we decided to wait it out, but a… | 17040895 | |
| Patch notes for v1.515f: Bugfixes and More Stable Saves Hello royals! Happy new year! Here's another patch with a few bugfixes, but also with a new and hopefully more stable save system! This new system was built to avoid situations where saves would get corrupted without a safe backup for the game to revert to. It might still happen, but even then, the new system should be able to make it so you can still play the game at least. Here is the full ch… | 16907314 | |
| Patch notes for v1.515e: More bugfixes Hello royals! Here's another patch with a few bugfixes for bugs that were reported after the patch from Monday! Apologies in particular for the text bug that cut off a lot of in-game descriptions for the Chinese, Korean and Japanese localizations.

| Patch v1.38 & v1.39: engine update and game fixes Hi everyone! Some quick patch notes for you! Last week we did a sneaky engine update on the game. The engine update fixed a game-launching crash that some people had, but unfortunately it also broke a few things inside the game. So then we quickly made a patch for the first few issues that were reported, and just now we uploaded a second patch that fixes some other issues that remained. Sorry a… | — |
