Happy Lunar New Year, Mayors! Our patch available today in the test branch is all about stability. We have heard your requests; autosaves can be turned off now. These are the patch notes:

Version 0.0.58.4 ALPHA

Features



• There is now a slider to control how often the game autosaves. Drag the slider all the way to the right to disable autosaving entirely.
• Link Mode - When building roads, click on the link button to build a chain of roads.
• When querying a building, there is now a button to open that building design in the designer.
• Modding: It is now possible to read and modify buildings and building designs in Lua. Also added Lua API calls to get the name of the city's newspaper. See the Lua API section of the Citipedia for more information.
