    Woah, a Saturday morning update. I'm happily amazed!

    Before I dig in too much, does the building upgrade system work now?


    EDIT:

    Great video! Really missed those.


    Edit 2: Congrats on going beta!

    "added Event Lighting system"

    Is this actually referring to the event arc system, or has something been implemented WRT lighting?

    MOOMANiBE Ah, those were the days. Staff Member

    The event lighting system allows us to change part, or all, of the skylighting based on event triggers. If you encounter the "strange meteor shower" event arc you may see the effects of this!

    Ten days in and smooth sailing all around! No crashes or odd workshop quirks I can see.

    One odd thing is that my commodities list shows I only have two logs... but I have logs everywhere. Or are they phantom logs?

    Can you verify quickly that your work crews, when using logs, are removing the right amount of logs from the stockpile? I think it's over-removing them.

    Well there aren't really any logs in the stockpile. I just chopped some new trees and the commodities window showed logs starting to go up again. Also, planks aren't being made anymore.

    Not sure what's going on, so here's a save:

    EDIT: Got planks working again by cancelling and restarting order.

    Ok, it looks like they pick up the right amount of logs for each job (though they're using logs instead of planks for bricabrac), but the logs just don't ever visually disappear from the game map.

    Looks like it's the same with steak...

    So are you getting stacks of (0) logs?

    Doesn't say (0) in the description, here you go:

    EDIT: Ok, I'm watching them pick up logs, and they are indeed leaving their place on the map. It's just that the number of visible logs doesn't match my commodities list. WIth the steak it's more obvious. Very confused right now:confused:

    @Unforked: So some operation is not deleting logs. Can you figure out what thing is not removing logs when logs are supposed to be destroyed?

    @Fredrik I'll take that save game, thanks! :)

    Okay. What is happening is a rare rendering glitch that causes some things that are in a commodity stack to render outside of the commodity stack anyway; so you are seeing "ghost logs." I'm working on figuring out what's causing this - must be something fairly new...

    Having trouble seeing which operation that is. However with the meat it's easy. I have plenty of steak very close by (but not in the stockpile) but the kitchen is no longer making sausage and they no longer show up in my commodities list.


    EDIT: Just saw your above post. Got it. :)
