Patch v0.8.009 - This update features the following changes:

  • Interactive tutorial is now split into Basic, Advanced and Menu overview. You can do all 3 at once or a combination. The default is Basic only (no renewables, niche shortcuts etc). Small addition to emphasize researching/upgrading.
  • A new popup will occur after your first day playing asking you to name your island (save).
  • New option added to make the top and bottom UI bars background transparent or hide the UI altogether.
  • Added shortcut key 'O' to open to oil market UI.
  • The player view/camera now more accurately jumps to look at a point of interest (such as a fault), accounting for different view heights.
