    Beta 51F is up on the Experimental Branch! (For those keeping track at home, I think I spent a week and a half getting "save and exit to main menu" working correctly.)

    Consolidated Changelog for Beta 51F

    added Steam Knights (accessible via Foreign Office, an event arc, and a special experimental loadout)
    added some new Steam Knight animations
    added "On-Shift/Off-Shift" status to the names of idle jobs
    added Grinder module and Grinder recipes
    added # of chairs display to Barbershop
    added some new event arcs
    added "save and exit to main menu", "exit to main menu without saving" buttons
    added ability for events to lock building for special work (& UI to support this)
    rewrote commodity tracking code
    changed commodity filter categories
    did more iteration on UI responsiveness
    added optional code for FYI-style alerts to display images
    increased range on animal_repopulate spawn (so they don't get stuck on the edge of the map)
    traders will send an alert when they leave the Trade Depot
    if a chapel is given a "special project" it will boot out anyone waiting for confession
    balance: reduced incidence of bandit/fishperson attacks
    FIXED: charred meat ownership is set correctly
    FIXED: Distil Rum
    FIXED: various minor scripterrors

    Okay...so far the peanut gallery and I (separate games) are trying to find that "perfect" set up for a new game...we are experiencing some crashes on the exit to main menu without saving. Not every time...for me a bit more often, around 3, the peanut gallery just the one time...totally understandable being all brand and spanking new. Just wanted to give a head's up. Funny thing...my rig is higher specc'd than his. Go figure. :)

    Are steam knights separate from the overseer/NCO system?

    It seems like the game is crashing when I save while something is under construction.

    It's not impossible. A lot of stuff got rearranged during the save/exit-to-main-menu situation, so please send me all the .DMP files and I'll try to get it sorted out as soon as possible, probably tomorrow.

    It could be just a coincidence though. I've had it crash several times even when a building was not under construction (but modules might have been in the middle of construction? I'm not sure).

    It's kind of a crapshoot to play at the moment. I'm going to get drunk with some girls now. :cool:

    Yup - crash everytime try to save. Sadly, not testable ... too much of a time lottery :)

    Did the tooltips that appear when hovering over stuff dissapear? Or is it my game?

    Edit: Nevermind, it came back.

    Mine don't work. I mean, when I hover over any commodity I get no information, including how many are in a stack. I also can't tell how many building materials I need to complete an unfinished building.

    EDIT: Lol, and now mine works again too. No idea what brought it back.

    Crashes on non-auto save. No buildings under construction but some jobs in queue like levelling ground. Think this also falls under construction events

    Random crashes until I've had a few saves. Been more stable after some buildings were finished.
    I'll try to capture on the next crash.
    Want to test moving modules between buildings. This previously left phantom modules.
