Drunkrobot 10 Posted August 15, 2013 I'm maybe just a blind fool who lives under a rock, but I can't find anywhere that updates and patches are announced. Can the devs maybe add a thread on the News sub-forum where such things can be announced, preferably with a change-log? Yes, I'm aware of the change-log in the main menu, I'm just wondering if there is a more streamlined way of finding out if an update has came. Thanks!

dram 14 Posted August 15, 2013 Well dev build updates are daily (sometimes even 2x per day), while main build updates are once in about two weeks. Those are announced, but Dev build updates are not. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Drunkrobot 10 Posted August 15, 2013 Thank you. Exactly where are they announced, though? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
welsch 1 Posted August 15, 2013 It would be great if we could somehow identify on which patch level we are exactly - because so far the version number seems only to increment with a stable branch update and is therefore pretty useless on the development branch. Please put in a build number somewhere (or increment the version number with every patch) and reference it in the patch notes. That way it would be much easier to talk about specific patches and to check if oneself is on the same level as everybody else already (or needs to give the steam client a swift kick).

dram 14 Posted August 15, 2013 Yeah we will do something about this, the build number is planned to change for each dev build. Announcements will also be done as well. More info tomorrow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
