Weve made big strides towards getting the freeplay AI save-able, and were at the point where we could do with some extra feedback before we declare it good to go. This opt-in beta build adds saving to freeplay games with AI colonies, which should make them much more viable in a long game. If you would like to participate, the beta code is christmasants. You will need to be a 64 bit Windows user to join. If youre unfamiliar with how to activate a Steam beta and would like to, follow the steps below: [quote] [olist]
Headline Features
- Saving is now available with AI colonies in freeplay

- Fixed a minor issue with the slave maker button in battle arena

- Removed some specks of dirt that were floating on the open nest entrances in The Dunes
- Fixed an issue where AIs that were cheating could only get a free hatch once per game
- Fixed issues with the AI colonys visibility of spawned landmarks (should lead to some more sensible landmark harvesting decisions)
- Fixed an issue where surface tunnels could switch when a freeplay game was loaded
- Fixed an issue where randomised caverns were not loading and saving
- Fixed an issue where some creatures could freeze if interrupted during picking up another creature
- Creatures eaten by other creatures will no longer drop invisible food

Optimisations

Empires of the Undergrowth Depot Linux [2.13 G]
"Your queen has set up home beneath a rotting log. She is fat, and vulnerable. Her first brood will need to move quickly if the colony is to survive. Their priority now is to find food, and there is plenty around; but there are other hungry creatures in the undergrowth. The workers will need to be vigilant."
Empires of the Undergrowth is an ant colony management game, in a fast-paced real-time strategy style. The player excavates their nest underground, constructing tunnels and chambers to store food and raise brood. On the surface, the ants claim territory, gather resources, overwhelm fearsome arachnids and clash with other colonies. Nest design, army size, composition and attack timing are key to securing victory.
