A nice chunky update to all my dear townscapers
Square grid! Round grid! Loopy grid!
I've scattered some special hand made sections around the grid. These sport features like perfect loops, various types of symmetry, large square sections, etc. When you start a new town you can go search for one of these special places and start building there.
Flying towns!
Apparently, it was always possible to create flying structures by finding rare perfect loops in the grid. With the new special grid sections there are many more such perfect loops to be found. And the flying structures now get little propellers to help them stay up without any legs
Sunlight, shadows and sunsets!
I added some subtle sunlight that cast even subtler shadows. You can control where the sun comes from and how far up the horizon it is.
High res screenshots!
There's now a button to take high res screenshots! Take many screenshots and fill all social media channels with them! Print them out and post them to your relatives!
Fast undo/redo!
Pretty minor, but if you hold down undo or redo, it will now undo or redo really fast, which looks kinda cool.
Breaking saves!
Unfortunately, my changes to the grid will break some of your saves. I've made sure not to change the grid close to the starting area, so unless you traveled very far out to start building, your town should be safe. My apologies if I broke your town, but this is Early Access.
(If you still wanna save your broken town, I've created a legacy branch called 0.14, which contains the game as it was before this update, including your old saves, frozen in time)
Best wishes
