Random Randy on Challenge and Ice Sheet, and I get caravans every day almost from other settlements. Yup, they all show up to eat my food, even the animals eat my food. Still have yet to have a space trader since A13

I noticed this too when I was trying to generate some characters, at least half, probably more would be incapable of dumb labor.

I had one with a Sheriff that made him incapable of almost everything and some other background that made him incapable of violence among others. He could only perform one job out of the entire list of skills, it was ridiculous.

I am playing on an ice sheet and barely surviving and traders just walk up and steal all my food. If this isn't a bug, this is ridiculous. It does not matter if you forbid the items, or doors, they just do what they want.

Now the traders Muffalo are eating my meals.... This should be fixed.

I am glad to see a new release too. I bought this game around my birthday last year. Has been no updates since. I am glad to see the developers finally back working on their unfinished game as I was/am still upset I spent my money on this game when nothing has been done to it in so long.

Hey I'm on a trip, not dead!

I'm also still around. Just not enough to keep up day to day on the forums.

However Piotr is working fulltime on the game under my ongoing direction. If he works all the way through, the next release may have quite a bit of new stuff in it indeed. Possibly 2x or more the usual man hours in an alpha (though much of it may be non-obvious refactoring work.)

6 months may seem like a long time but it'll be like 15% of the game's dev time by the end of it. Not a big deal in the grand scheme. Moreover the game has more content than was ever promised. The marketing page doesn't even mention animal taming/training at all. So I'm comfortable with what we're offering now.

First off I think you gotta do what you gotta do, but I would not have bought your game if I had seen you were going to stop working on it for half a year (would have waited) and think it should at least be mentioned in your dev blog as it seems pretty relevant, 6 months is a long break.

Second, you might have more features in game then on the front page, however the game is very clearly marked as an Alpha, not a finished product. I did not buy the game for the features listed on the front page, I bought it under the impression it is still a work in progress and because you had been making so much good progress recently. Calling it a Beta would be more assuming to a feature complete game and then maybe I would feel less inclined to expect more features and progress. If you think the game is in a feature compete state then you should reflect that in your marketing, not get snappy at people who expect an unfinished game to be getting more content.

I hope we can see some progress on the game from Piotr, I guess its better then nothing for half a year.

You already got my money, so I suppose this is all just a moot point. Enjoy your vacation.

I am just voicing my opinion. Don't need a bunch of rude fan boys talking crap. I am disappointed he quit developing the game and did not make this well known on his main page. I have spent 30 dollars on less, but am still disappointed all the same.

This is just my opinion no need to be jackasses about it.

I just bought this game after following development for years now. I had no idea he decided to take a 6 month break. I actually wish I hadn't bought the game now. I do like it, but it is not finished. He made brief mention of a break in his recent dev blog on the main site, but I assumed that meant a month or so... not half a year. I wish him the best, but I am upset about this now. I don't have a lot of money and only bought it because of the progress he has recently been making. He really should put this on his main website for people to see, so people like me could have saved their money for a game that is being worked on or already finished.
