With this update your tribes will now function much more efficiently, and if they still don't quite do what you want, you now have a lot more control by prioritizing orders. New in 0.4.2: AI and fixes: - You can now prioritize any order at any time. Sapiens will tend to choose prioritized orders to complete first. - You can then deprioritize orders again to restore them to the default prioritization level - Different plan types are now prioritized differently by default, so idle sapiens are much more likely to choose a recruit or hunt order than a store order. - The outputs of prioritized orders retain the prioritization, so if you prioritize a gather order on an apple tree, then the store orders for the apples will also be prioritized - If you manually assign sapiens to an order, they will drop everything and are much more likely to continue to work on that order. - Sapiens are now a lot more likely to continue a single task to completion. Hunting in particular is much improved. - Taking a required tool to an order site now requires the order's role, instead of the general labor role. This improves efficiency as that sapien can then complete the order, and it stops tools getting stuck lying around waiting for the right sapien. - Telling a sapien to stop, or manually assigning a sapien to an order now causes them to drop what they were carrying - More Fixes, optimizations, and UI improvements Balancing: - More visitor tribes in the early stages of the game - Visiting sapiens tend to stay longer - Crucibles now degrade when used - Reduced quantity of manure produced, as it was excessive and degraded performance - Reduced quantity of sapien vocals when time is fast forwarded

In Sapiens you create your own prehistoric civilization. Lead your tribe from the ground, immersed in the world while you shape it. Build towns and industry with complete freedom and control, from placing the tiniest pebble to constructing monumental structures. Start with nothing and advance through thousands of years of technological breakthroughs in this intimate yet expansive colony sim.
Choose Your Home
Pick from thousands of procedurally generated lands across a map larger than Earth itself. Choose wisely, as each area has different climates, resources, and challenges. Finding the right place to begin your home is key to growing your civilisation.
Lead Your People
Walk the paths beside your people as you lead them through this uncharted world. Instruct individual sapiens to focus on specific tasks, such as planting crops, gathering materials, building, hunting, cooking, and more. Watch as they learn new skills, making them more valuable to your tribe. Manage their moods, health, and support their growing families.
Find Resources
Find new resources and send your sapiens to investigate, leading to new breakthroughs which unlock new things to build and craft. Start with primitive materials and work your way up to using more advanced tools and techniques.
Build A Civilization
Build shelters, both to keep your sapiens happy and to preserve food and resources. Every wall, roof, seat or fireplace can be placed individually. Each tree, log, plank or rock can be removed or situated, and the terrain can be dug, mined or filled to shape the world the way you want.
Expand Your Reach
Send sapiens over long distances and establish camps to gather far away resources. Create transportation networks to bring those resources back to your base for processing or storage. Send a group to explore over great distances, or conduct a hunting mission. Take down a mammoth to feed and clothe your tribe for months, but know that you may lose some sapiens trying.
Sapiens features extensive mod support through Steam Workshop.
