Hello fellow engineers!
Sorry about the delayed update.
The Steam Cloud sync issue on Mac took us more time than our expected. Currently the issue was solved under Steam Team's help. For engineers play AAW on Mac cross-platform-ly, please remember to back up your save files at ~/Library/Application Support/com.LaputaLabs.AlansAutomatonWorkshop to prevent unwanted save file overwrite.
This is a small update focusing on UI improvements. Engineers can now manually drag the edge of Diagram Panel to adjust the size of the editing area. Additionally, you can enable the "Use full-frame Diagram" option to expand the Diagram to full screen by default. The Execution Panel can also be minimized as needed, to provide players with a better editing view.
Next stop, the Sandbox mode! We will do our best to catch up the schedule and release it as soon as possible. Once again, thank you for your kindly support and patience.
