Thank you all for playing Nexus Primordial! This update fixes an important bug reported.
Bug fixes
- Automation could block your progress. Once you owned an Automation relic, the automation bought or refined an upgrade every frame, and the era column was rebuilt each time. As a result, the "Next milestone" panel stayed empty, the buttons in that column (buy, observe, buy all) stopped responding, and the game could slow down. This is fixed: the column now refreshes calmly and every button responds again.
- The Big Crunch threshold could become out of reach. It is based on your peak Consciousness production, which could be recorded in conditions you no longer had (for example while observing another era). A safety net now gradually lowers the requirement after 15 minutes in the same run, so a Big Crunch is always possible within 45 minutes.
New
- Auto-buy: ON / PAUSED and Auto-Crunch: ON / PAUSED buttons, at the bottom right of the screen. They appear as soon as you own the matching relic, and your choice is saved with your game.
Your save
Your progress is kept. If you were stuck, you will be able to Big Crunch again within about 30 minutes of play after updating.
A big thank you to the player who reported this bug so clearly. If you run into a problem, the Discussions tab of the store page is the best place to tell me about it.
