Greetings, Rulers!
We are deploying Update 1.1.0 today! This update brings another wave of crucial improvements to Rodovia, focusing on highly requested Quality of Life additions like the Restart Mission button, a massive save system refactor, new audio content, and numerous scenario bug fixes.
Update 1.1.0 Notes
New Features & Content
Restart Mission Button: Added a highly requested option to restart a mission directly from the in-game menu.
Time Manipulation: Added new time manipulation options to adjust gameplay pacing.
Save Recovery System: Added a new failsafe system to help regenerate and recover save data in the event of specific types of game crashes.
Mission Timers: Added visible UI timers to all time-sensitive missions, allowing you to easily track how much time is left to complete them.
Enemy Objective Trackers: Missions requiring you to defeat specific enemy groups now feature visual kill counters. Additionally, these objectives include clickable links in the UI to help you instantly locate and track the targets on the map.
New Audio Content: Added additional sound effects for all buildings and characters.
Gameplay
Alchemist Shop: Heroes will no longer attempt to buy potions that haven't been researched yet.
Party Gathering: Fixed a bug causing hero parties to gather in random map locations instead of correctly assembling at the Tavern.
Homeless Heroes: Fixed an issue where heroes were not properly assigned to the "Heroes without a seat" group after performing a Save/Load.
Monster Lairs: Fixed an issue where completely cleared monster lairs would permanently fail to respawn new residents.
Buffs & Spells:
Fixed the 'Haste' spell not applying correctly to heroes.
Fixed 'Tincture of Speed' lasting longer than intended (over 30s) and missing its duration indicator on the hero card.
Fixed the Marksman's 'Puncture' skill causing internal error spam.
Fixed an issue where Druid tornadoes could last indefinitely.
UI: Fixed a visual issue in the Royal Furnace where the Tier 2 unlocking requirement text was improperly formatted as part of the description. Fixed a visual bug where the Knight's banner would fail to disappear.
Balance
Resistances: Added missing damage resistances to various units and entities.
Wizard Technology: Corrected the research order of Wizard technologies.
Mausoleum Requirements: The Mausoleum building no longer requires a Graveyard to be constructed.
Save/Load & Stability Improvements
Save Data Refactor: Massively refactored how scenario data is saved, drastically improving overall save/load stability.
⚠️ Important Note: Saving and loading will work best on saves created in this new version. While we specifically focused on improving the loading of saves from ongoing scenarios, we strongly recommend restarting your currently active missions from the campaign panel to avoid any unexpected issues.
Tax Collector Bug: Fixed a bug where saving and loading the game would incorrectly spawn an extra Tax Collector for every Tax Center.
UI Soft Locks: Fixed errors and soft locks caused by clicking the "eye" icon on certain interface quests multiple times.
Fog of War: Fixed an error triggered by attempting to place a second attack flag on units hidden within the Fog of War.
Narrator: Fixed an issue where narrator notifications would incorrectly activate after a scenario had already ended.
