Dear players, due to an issue related to Guild Expeditions that will prevent a majority of players from logging in after it ended, we will apply a hotfix today. Please be aware that this bugfix has not been tested extensively due to the urgency of the bug, so if you encounter any issues make sure to report them to us via our discord server, forum or support tickets. Thank you for your understanding.  

With this addition, we're introducing another way to help you re-arrange your City more effectively – the Flat mode! Accessing it is very easy: enter the Build mode and click on the corresponding icon to hide the full building assets and view only the City grid. From there, re-arrange your City as you normally would, and with the help of the Flat mode ensure you don't miss any road connections or pockets of free space. We're bringing the Flat mode to all grids, namely:

• Main City
• Cultural Settlements
• Quantum Incursions Settlement
• Space Age Outposts

We're planning to activate the feature with the BETA update on Monday, the 28th of October.

Happy building!
