This demo patch includes the following changes:

  • Design

    • Domestication points required to domesticate each species increased by +1

    • Maker specialist no longer gives Domestication Points

    • Domestication technology now gives +1 Domestication Points to all Bands

    • Agriculture and Pastoralism cultural norms now each give +1 Domestication Points

    • New climate adaptation added that gives +1 Domestication Point while in that climate

    • Organism populations in foodwebs now recover twice as slow when at very low population sizes

  • UI

    • Species icons in foodweb are now highlighted more when selected for foraging or domestication

    • Active settings are now shown in the tooltip of the in-game menu button in the top-right

  • Fixed bugs:

    • Fixed issue where some game-creation settings would affect saved games that had been created with different settings

    • Fixed non-player factions occasionally still attacking after friendship is declared (friendship was not cancelling existing intentions to attack)

    • Fixed Cassava science bonus not being applied

    • Fixed Sorghum not being equippable in Farms

    • Fixed issue where pressing TAB between turns would cycle through non-player bands

    • Fixed button anchoring issues in military and foodweb view where a button would drift out of position when UI scaling is increased.

Please leave a review on the demo's page to let me know what you think,

and join the discussions on Discord!
