Alpha 1 patch 2

Just trying to keep up with bug reports…

Added:

an ability to set max. number of laborers on a farm
a tip to build a smithy, when nails are running out

Fixed:

crash when building the bridge
crash when attempting to create a new field
several minor UI issues
sometimes it was possible to create a field in form of line
migration didn’t happen in some cases
construction status falsely reported as “No foresters” when more than one forestry
sometimes invalid fishing points were created, leading to unexpected boats behavior
sometimes foresters prefered to chop trees on other side of the map
it was possible to fire a mayor in some rare cases
rare crash on market stall demolition
removed funny bubbles on the first map

some problems may still persist in old saves, but won’t appear again

There’s two ways to update your game:
1. you can just download it again from Humble with the same link they sent you when you purchased the game and then replace it completely with your current version.
2. since only one file affected, you can just download it and unpack in your Ostriv directory, replacing ostriv.exe: https://ostrivgame.com/ostriv-exe-alpha-1-patch-2.zip

LOL. I never thought to try to fire my mayor. Now I’m gonna *have* to go back to the 1.1 version and fire it up to see if it works. (Yes, I admit my sense of humor is a bit warped at times.)

Thanks for all your hard work 🙂

I have always been a fan of City builders and I truly enjoy this one. This is really great what you have created, I cannot wait to see how far you take this. Keep up the hard work, it is well appreciated immensely.

This may be a bug – If there is a Fishery with stored food and then at the end of the season when you fire the fishermen and then send them back next year all of the stored food is lost. I did not have a Granary, so maybe this was intended?

Also, what is the market worker’s role – I do not see them collecting any food, all they do is man the stall.

  Not sure about the fishery but it should be because of the Granary and i have seen the market worker get goods from the Granary. Just get one built ASAP.

    Thank you.
    Yes, that should fix it, but was wondering if the food lost was a bug.

I downloaded game into a file on my desktop… how do you get it to load? When I click execute, windows blocks installation.
- Darren Lees
  
  is that windows defender issue?
  I had the same, on the message it says ‘more info’ click that and you then see a button allowing you to run regardless of the security recommendation not to run it.
  - Phillip Riggin
    
    Yep, thats what it was. Windows defender does not like Ostriv…lol. I loaded it against the advice of windows.
- Farhan Khan
  
  just click the exe file in the folder on your desktop and allow permission in windows which says “run anyway” and you are good to go. since its not officially released yet so it doesnt has the license to certification for windows.

After watching a few of the videos on Youtube it occurred to me to suggest adding a forest button in the decorations Yevheniy. There are a number of plant (species of) trees in there now. The difference for this option is it would plant say 5 trees per click, could be a few all this type and a mixed forest button, and it would randomly place their silhouettes for where they would actually be planted within a set radius around the cursor. The trees would be set to be unprotected by default unlike the single planted ones. Or perhaps have a third option that marks them as being cut-able after reaching a certain size. This way you can quickly replant forests around the forestry. That is assuming the player doesn’t want that forest completely cleared and then plan to move the forestry elsewhere or the workers at the forestry don’t some day get an option to enable the duty of replanting trees they fell.

For yr humble tip : “windows stopped working”… so is after cleaning…

In the next patch I’d love to see a total count from the economy screen listed for each resource in the trading post screen. If I have 40/40 at the trading post but 92 overall there really isn’t a way to see the total stock when I’m selecting which city I want to make a deal with or how much I want to trade with them. I can have the trading post up but not the economy screen when the map is open. After your initial trade delegation is sent, there should be an indication on the map of the goods that city buys/sells when you click on it. Also some type of rolling 12 month usage figure in in either the economy or trading post for the food resources so you know how much you can sell safely.

Hey, I just bought the game and at first run it was very slow. So I updated my graphics drivers, but this didnt help. Any advice? Or need more details? Radeon R9 270 2GB, 16GB RAM, 8 core CPU

  seems to be better in patch 3 after disabling all the graphic stuff (using the offline tool)

the latest patch on 22 October is unplayable, you cant build more then 3 houses till before winter, and the workers are more slow and take more rest and also doesnt give priority to the buildings i assign sequentially. so i role back to the previous version and playing.
- NotYou
  
  I noticed the same thing about them not giving priority to the buildings sequentially. I started a new game, just in case it was something I did, but got the same result. Hopefully this will get fixed in the next patch and also we will get faster building out of the townspeople. I also can never get enough houses built for all 9 families the game gives us at the start before winter hits. They just build too slow. I got 6 houses once, but then couldn’t get a farm or fishery built fast enough before they ran out of food and they all moved out. *sigh*

Is it possible to save game, or did I not unzip properly? As I have to go into files and open ‘ostriv’ file as it won’t let create a short cut
