KNOWN ISSUES
if your speed drops low enough, the game can start to slowdown as it has to calculate multiple turns for every one of your turns, nothing I can do about that

Hells yeah, do that shit.

Released 5.6.4f fixing some minor bugs

8

Thanks a lot for your work.

9

Well, I think there should be at least one up-to-date mod with better overmap settings.

Released 5.6.4g

Released 5.6.4h

I was wondering why I haven’t seen acid rain in a long time and sure enough, turns out regional overlays don’t copy weather settings. Seems every compatibility function in the game is broke in one way or another.

Reverted back to regional override and made a compatibility override in the optional folder for worlds already loading more buildings before PK. Alternatively you can edit your mod load order in mods.json in your save folder.

When creating a new world you want to load more buildings after PK.

Huh, a rebalancing mod needed rebalancing (batching)

… FELINE …

  • hates fruit

Hmmm…

14

Feline should get parkour expert.

15

That’s a good idea, I’ll add it in the next release. It’s gonna be a threshold mutation to make feline more enticing, plus I don’t wanna make it too easy to get rid of bad knees.

I dunno man, I’ve watched my cats jump headfirst into a cupboard door far too many times to call them experts.

17

Well, I think we can reasonably assume that a human/feline mutant hybrid would be smart enough not to do that while still gaining a heightened agility.

Sweeet!
