0.7.5e1: The Architect
Hey Drifters,
We've got a small update for you to test out: The Architect!
We've heard your requests for the ability to relocate constructions and ways to restructure the town. It posed some interesting challenges and flabbergasted us for a while, given the game's setup, but we found a solution. Enter: The Architect! This specialist allows you to go into 'Architect Mode' and completely re-plan your entire town, re-think pipelines, or just move some buildings around.
It's a highly experimental feature, and we're hoping to get some good feedback on it to iron out the kinks. Enjoy the update!
What's next?
This update will most likely be in experimental for some time, in the meantime we'll push some performance updates to it to further smooth out the gameplay.
This patch is still in development and can be tested on the experimental branch to give feedback.
This is how you can enable the experimental branch of Flotsam. This will only work when you're not in a game:
1. Open Steam Library
2. Right click Flotsam
3. Select Properties
4. Go to tab 'Betas' at the top.
5. Select 'Experimental' in the drop-down.
