Known Major Issues:
- If you try this Unstable version and decide you want to go back to a previous Stable, you may find the game will not load to the Main Menu. To fix this issue, you must delete your Userdata.sav file (your game settings are stored here so your game save data should remain intact). To find the file, do the following:
- Open your Steam Library
- Right click Terratech
- Select Properties
- Select Local Files tab
- Select Browse Local Files
- Open the Saves folder
- Delete the userdata.sav file
- Trading Stations in existing saves are not fully updated to the new version. This means that they don’t have a SCU but players cannot sell blocks to them either.
- Sumo, Gauntlet and R&D Test Chamber may start with an initial noticeable stutter depending on how many Tech snapshots are present in the TerraTech folder.
- Anchored blocks can be placed in close proximity to each other, causing them to overlap.
- Multiple resources travelling close to each other along Conveyors may generate bottlenecks and clog bases up, especially around Refineries and Filters.
