Latest Steam announcements
- Model updates, thus hopefully fixing starvation and other issues - 2 June 2026
Text generation Updated text gen models to newer/better versions. This seemed to automatically make the game significantly more coherent and interesting than before, and may have reduced or eliminated the cases of NPCs starving to death with no in-game logical fix needed at all for this issue. In my test playthrough, when I set an NPC's hunger bar to 1, they immediately started looking for food, successfully replenishing their hunger bar.

The AI will run a plausibility check for the crafting station, a research check, and a tech levels check. To start crafting a new static object, click the new blue static object icon. The AI will run a research check and tech levels check. NPCs may also occasionally start new crafts/constructions as well as bring items to existing blueprints. Research Each world now comes pregenerated with a research tree. The research items are used as checks for whether you’re allowed to create a new…
