In this week's release, we fixed another big chunk of issues and improved various parts of the game. We are planning for at least one more release in the 2.11.x series, so stay tuned for more! Bonus Tip: I recently put out a new video showcasing some new tips and tricks as kind of an addendum to my beginner's guide video here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgPQXlF75w0 If you haven't watched the first video, check it out here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1G2_PGmSxU0 Bonus Promo: If you haven't checked out TARS yet, give it a whirl! It has improved by leaps and bounds over the last little while. TARS will even help with repetitive tasks like harvesting now!
