Guess I can fix it from the download, but you should know that this happened.

Edit: I don't think downloading 1,1Gig of full game is worth one json file, can I get it standalone somehow? :D
i have the same problem on windows.

Love you guys,
I've made a big pan of soup and got beers in the fridge.
My mate on his way round for a gaming session, then you release 0.17 :-)

Awesome, we'll test the shit out of it.

Use the automatic updater if you can (check experimental updates in other settings)
I don't have this option in the Steam version, and the installer is trying to install under Program Files rather than into my Steam library. I use a Steam controller to play, so I have to run the game through Steam for that to work. Am I missing something, or will the installer automagically connect the game to Steam when I run it? (Some games do this, some don't.)

EDIT: Resolved.

Yes the Steam version works, just go into the betas and select it.

Wait can I still build repair outposts that stop trains passing by for repairs?
From what I recall from FF if you give it a wait fo few secs condition it will stop.
My repair outpost doesn't use train stops. It uses signals with circuit network to stop all trains that pass by for some time and until no construction bots are deployed.

This is how that looks on MacOS:

And for some unknown reason, the demo directory can not be deleted.

The demo directory may however be moved away (which makes the game start).

The only thing in the demo directory is a Russion localisation directory (a few directories). The bottommost directory, "ru", looks empty, but actually seems to contain a hidden file. This makes the directory un-deletable.

Is it supposed to run on Mac OS X 10.9 (Mavericks)? I get this error when I launch it:

Medium and Big power pole recipes now use iron sticks.
Lamp recipe iron sticks ingredient changed to copper cables.
Gah! While I like the increased use of the neglected iron sticks, this is really messing up my mall
Rocket launcher range increased from 22 to 36 to outrange medium worms.
Nice. I always felt that it was way too low
