New update for beta and demo users: 0.1.18844

Hi everyone,

We don't normally do updates on weekends, but we wanted to push out a quick hotfix to resolve a few rare stability issues and other bugs reported by a few players. Here's the full changelist:

New features:

  • When dragging a chart from the Statistics tab, right-clicking or dropping the chart back on the chart dialog now cancels dragging.
  • Completing chart dragging now prevents the click from performing any other actions, such as selection.

Art improvements and fixes:

  • Improved rocks in wetlands maps.
  • You can now occasionally see citizens entering and exiting the elevator in Skyscrapers.
  • Wind and heat distortion in desert maps now pause properly.
  • Improved colors and materials on the Life Support Module.
  • Improved load/save menu buttons.
  • Improved dragonfly wing effects.
  • Improved lake in Vanaar (consistent with other wetlands maps).
  • Fixed a visual glitch in the Azara Falls lake.
  • Fixed waterfall splashes in Azara Falls not pausing.

Tuning / balancing / minor changes:

  • Tweaked the cargo pods and mineral deposits in nearly all campaign maps to have fewer total minerals available at Challenging, Hard, and Insane difficulty.
  • All mineral deposits now have more minerals in them in campaign mode at Easy, Beginner, and Cakewalk difficulty (up to 2x quantity at Cakewalk).
  • Moved resupply pods inside the range of the starting Construction Drone Hub in a few maps.
  • Azara Falls: remover a Wind Turbine at Insane difficulty.
  • Fixed a few over-zealous blocked tiles in Azara Falls.

Bug fixes:

  • Fixed an issue with farmed tiles disappearing when dragging buildings over them for placement.
  • Fixed a bug where imploding a Mine loaded from a saved game could cause issues.
  • Fixed a relatively rare stability issue.

Bear in mind that we've got a lot more going on under the hood that we haven't announced yet ... keep your eyes peeled for announcements over the next few weeks.
