UPDATE 0.743

Welcome, lords and ladies of KINGDOMS! Today's update will add to the game new resource type - flowers. There are 9 types of different flowers that can be found in the wild. Later they'll be used for couples interaction and various craft - i.e. in alchemy. Adding new item was very important step - development-wise - and I'll explain why. Previously adding any type of new item required new game from the player - old saves just didn't work anymore. Items lists were used in too many scripts - prices calculation, loot, trading, AI crafting, farming - etc.etc. and all these lines were written into save. To fix this issue some areas of save script needed to be completely rewritten. With current update schedule (3 update a week with planned new items on the roadmap) this issue should have been fixed asap, so here we are. For now on I can (finally!) add new items and this won't break saves - old ones will work perfectly. Some of you could think "And what?" but I really worked on this issue for a long time and finding the solution was a small victory. We're on track, so more updates are coming!

ROADMAP FULL LIST OF UPDATES PATREON

**IMPORTANT

1. Please, feel free to use built-in bug reporter (F11) - it will help development a lot.
2. If something is broken make sure you have verified game files and started new world, remember -KINGDOMS is still EA, I try to make saves compatibility for every new version of the game, but can't guarantee it all the time.
3. The game is still in development, it's NOT finished product, updates are coming 3-4 times a week and that will inevitably cause various issues. Updates for game in development and for finished game - are two absolutely different things, remember that. Game mechanics come and gone, bugs are being fixed and new ones appear all the time. Its a normal thing for development process. If you want to experience KINGDOMS as it was initially designed - smooth, without bugs and full of working mechanics - please, wait till final version will be out.
