1.15.2 has been published to the Default Branch. This build will break your save games. However if you still wish to play your old saves you can switch to 1.15.1 by using the Stable branch.
To switch branches:
*In your Steam Library, right click GearCity.
*Select Properties
*Select the Betas tab
*Choose a Branch:
None -> Default Branch, 1.15.2
Stable-> 1.15.1
Legacy-> 1.14.8
As you can tell the base of the tutorial system has been implemented. You can access a test case in the Main Menu by clicking Help in the upper right, and then selecting "Enable Tutorials". It currently does not look pretty. But the main thing is if it works or not. So please let me know. If you have any issues with the system, disable it, and it should not effect you.
For 1.15.3 I will be working more on the tutorial system. Implementing some optimization fixes to the GUI, and doing some more work on the AI.
Linux users can expect a demo build of the game in a week or so. So stay tuned for that.
