Law issue after this update

Comment
    SLG-Dennis on Steam Forums - Thread - Direct
Thank you, we have identified an issue that can cause this. Unfortunately fixing it requires bigger changes to be made, which excludes this issue from being fixed in a hotfix. It will hence likely be addressed in Update 10.2.

No main menu, and it seems to be just me.

I'm sorry, in that case you will need to reach out to [email protected].

It being the last remaining known cause doesn't mean there couldn't be any others that need a deeper investigation that isn't possible via Steam, especially given this seems to have happened without any update to Eco or anything else.

Since Update 10.1.0 a connection problem to our servers or our servers having problems does no longer show a empty main menu, but a detailed error message with helpful information. The only remaining known reason for a empty main menu that is not yet caught in the released version is a connection issue with Steam. If you have an SLG account linked to Steam you could try using the client of our website with direct log in, that doesn't use Steam.

Typically restarting steam does help for that problem, otherwise the amount of potential causes is just as high and hard to diagnose as for any other connection issues - something is going wrong between local network and Steam connection manager.

Restrictions on the use of lamps in the room

Comment

All objects that provide housing points do now have volume (and as such room) requirements to function to prevent the priorly commonly used "stack everything on top" strategy, this is a side-effect of that change. While we do not plan to revert this, we plan to add new options that are specifically intended for outdoors use.

No start up menu, and I think I'm the only one.

Connection issues to our servers will as of 10.1.0 show this:

If you still see a empty menu there is only one known uncaught reason left for it, no connection to Steam possible. (Will show its own message and close the game automatically in one of the next updates) The reasons for that can be all the same local networking issues, it's not really something we can diagnose. Sometimes restarting Steam helps.

You could try to see if the SLG client (needs account on ...

Settlement Foundation Bug?

Comment

There is two things that can delete a settlement foundation:
1. Annexation when same-level annexation is activated
2. The settlement being invalid for more than 20 minutes (new default is 60, but needs to be changed by admins) due to for example holes in the room or other issues.

Neither can be reversed once it happened.

Occupancy Penalty and Number Transparency

I don't find it stated anywhere in the Ecopedia about the multiple room penalty being offset for multiple inhabitants so that might be worth adding.

I understand these changes and we'll play based on the way it's been implemented by you folks, I was just annoyed at going into a game having no idea that these numbers had changed or how they had changed. Want more documentation! Yes I'm demanding. I love numbers. I can only apologise for the way that I am ♥

Yes, I see that still needs updating, thanks for the hint.

Can you post a screenshot of the law in edit mode so we can recreate it?

Can't find ecopedia link 'HomesteadSupportClaimItem' (referenced on page 'Settlements')

You can ignore this warning, it just says that a link in the Ecopedia is not found, it has no impact.

new update made countrys disapear

Comment

It's possible that the country due to the new culture calculation no longer fulfills the configured minimum requirements. You can restore the pre-migration backup and before starting the server change the following in Settlements.eco:

"MinCultureToMaintainSettlement": [
0.0,
0.0,
0.0
],

This will require zero culture to maintain any type of settlement.

Hotfix 10.1.1 released!

Post
Hey Citizens,
we have just released Hotfix 10.1.1 to address the following issues:

  • Fixed: An issue that prevented some players to join some servers
  • Fixed: Even miniscule changes in culture triggered notifications for annexations, leading to spam
  • Fixed: The /unstuck command didn't work correctly when used while being on a boat on the ocean
  • Fixed: Vehicles that were parked on a deed were put into void storage when its owner was removed from residency of that deed

We started the game less than 7 hours ago. We don't have mods and haven't done any mining. But it looks like a Nuke went off... Pollution value 3quintillion

I just need to correct a misunderstanding here: Uranium is not planned to be part of any 10.X update and it would be new to me we confirmed it to be part of any update so far.

Ore in 10.0?

Comment
    SLG-Dennis on Steam Forums - Thread - Direct
The distribution of ore into specific biomes and areas is intended - different locations on the planet are supposed to give you access to different resources, requiring a decision on where to settle and trade to gain the other resources. In singleplayer unrestricted claim papers are available with the correct settings, so multiple areas can be settled in.

Occupancy Penalty and Number Transparency

Comment

We have removed the prior system in favour of a more simple, server configurable general bonus / penalty system based on the amount of residents that you can configure in Rooms.eco.

The usual penalty for multiple rooms of the same type still applies (with one room of each type being free per resident), but the housing points yielded by all rooms in a deed are now simply summed up, then divided by the amount of residents and the result then multiplied with a configurable crowding factor as configured in the server config. The result is the personal housing points of each resident.

By default the crowding factor is 1 for one and four residents, 1.2 for two and 1.15 for three residents. Starting with the fifth resident, the factor decreases by 0.1 per each additional resident until it reaches 0.3.

10.1 Server Down

Comment
    SLG-Dennis on Steam Forums - Thread - Direct
If you're refering to those servers not yet having been updated, you can use the already mentioned workaround to connect to them.

We're also aware of an issue that prevents some players to join some servers and are currently investigating it to provide a hotfix as soon as the issue has been identified and fixed. If you are affected by that, providing the server log, the save and the exact ingame names of affected users to [email protected] would help us.

Ore in 10.0?

Comment
    SLG-Dennis on Steam Forums - Thread - Direct
The general locations of ores didn't change in Update 10 - only their distribution. Looking around the usual places should still provide you with the ore you seek - it's just no longer there in big chunks, but more distributed veins.

Update 10.1 released! New Homestead Support Papers!

Post
Dear Eco Citizens,
Update 10.1 is now available! We've been taking a lot of feedback from citizens on the settlement system that was newly introduced in 10.0 and applied it. It's a big system with unique mechanics that only truly play out when you have groups interacting together in their own worlds, and after 10.0 we've learned a lot from our citizens and made the following upgrades:

Homestead Support Papers

This update contains a new type of claim papers, called "Homestead Support Papers", which just like normal settlement papers will spawn in the settlement foundation based on the amount of citizens it has. The special thing about these is that they cannot be used within the influence of a settlement, but only to expand homesteads located outside.

Homestead Support Papers have no use for settlements - the intention is for these papers to ... Read more

how to expropiate inactive players?

Comment
    SLG-Dennis on Steam Forums - Thread - Direct
Kicking them from the town removes their property from your jurisdiction, making you unable to expropriate them. At an executive action desk you can make a basic one-off law alike "If property owned by X, transfer property to X". (Or instead use a condition on if the property is owned by someone that is in abandoned group, for example)
