    Large worlds will mostly be the same, but whenever it would have run out of space due to small or thin shaped biomes, mountains, craters, lakes, etc, it will often make a small town now instead of nothing. With the Circle 2 biome layout effectively splitting your biome sizes in half, as there...

    "Added RWG town planner will try to make a small town with tighter space rules when a normal town does not fit." This is a 2k map. Very playable!

    2.x saves will load in 3.0. As far as I know, we have managed to make all the load code successfully import 2.x save data, which is then saved in 3.0 format.

    No. I have not looked at that recently. I have tried to fix it before, but there are odd edge cases that resist fixing. 1780608823 I am the The Night Owl / Screen Dweller!

    There should be some news within a week. I will say that today I added a new RWG biome layout of Circle 2, as a personal side task, which I am looking forward to playing on. Small feature, but cool as it gives you two separated versions of each biome.

    Sooner than later. I am curious to see all the stuff that landed in 3.0 as we also have many changes for 3.x and 4.0 in the works, so it starts getting hazy what little bits are landing where.

    I think we are feature complete at this point. Many bugs were squashed last week and we continue on them this week. New ones are coming in, but we are winning the bug war. A lot of play testing is happening using a variety of sandbox presets. Some of the presets are very hard, so we are...

    No one has mentioned it here recently, that we have a new owner now, so how we do things is changing. Like we actually have marketing and analytics departments. We are still in transition and trying to figure it all out. There are other game changes. There is a cool new feature for items, but I...

    Lots of issues we are working through, but that happens before every experimental. About 35 must fix bugs currently, but not all of them have to be fixed for experimental or even stable.
