News: Stuck AI game issue fix

Hello everyone!


Some of you shared an issue to us about online games that got stuck at some point, because the AI isn't working anymore. Today we made some adjustments that should fix this issue. It is possible that it will only work in new created games, so please don't only test your running games. Please let us know if it is now working or if the issue persists. Your Team DIGIDICED

Update 27th February 2023 (Bugfixes)

Todays update is the first after the tuscany release!


With the help of your feedback we worked on some bugfixes. You should now be able to invite each other to play online with the tuscany features by using the matchmaker (make sure everyone you invite owns it). Due to a bug this was only possible by creating a Lobby. We also fixed the game freezes caused by the manager card. You can read our list of fixes here:
  • fixed DLC purchase not registered on the server
  • fixed old casual game matchmaker not working with Tuscany
  • fixed manager card freezing the game when played
  • fixed innkeeper not paying lira when stealing a visitor card
  • fixed producer retrieving a worker from a structure card
  • fixed messenger placement enforced on neutral actions
  • fixed worker stuck on player info when destroying a structure
  • fixed wrong description in the "What to do first" popup
  • fixed multiple soundtracks playing simultaneously
  • fixed missing characters in Chinese, Japanese and Korean
  • fixed switched Tuscany module icons in the lobby panel
Thank you for you help! Team DIGIDICED

Redesign, Mainmenu 2.0, Server Migration

This update includes the redesign of Viticulture, the new Digidiced Mainmenu 2.0 and the server migration.


[ 2021-12-23 11:18:22 CET ] [ Original post ]


Viticulture Essential Edition Redesign


Dear Community, we are happy to announce that the redesign of Viticulture Essential Edition is almost available for you. In the next days we will prepare last steps for the launch of the redesign, the implementation of our mainmenu 2.0 and the simultaneous migration to our new server. This will be important for you: - Account migration Everybody who owns our game Gaia Project is already present on our new server. All others will now have the possibility to migrate their account also by updating Viticulture with the coming update. - How is it done and what will be migrated? Simply update viticulture and start the game. By opening up your profile you will see that your name and your statistics were migrated. If your former name was taken by someone else you will find an add on to the name after your old one. If you created a new one with Gaia Project already your ID token will be recognized and the Username of the already existing Account will be used. Avatars need to be altered after migration. If you own other games that are still on the old server you will see a placeholder with blank statistics. As soon as those games are migrated the stats will be included. - Friend list Please read this carefully Your friend list will be migrated but it will only show entries of friends that completely migrated already to the new server! Users that do not download the new version and log into their account at least once will not be shown in the friend list. The only exception is if an account was part of a migrated running game. In this case the entry exists on the new server but the Stats will be available only after their first log in. Ranking will be migrated. Ranking will only show those who already logged in at least once with the new client. Replays We do not migrate saved replays of the account. The feature remains, though. Running games Ranked games / fast running games / casual games will be migrated and can be played on. We turned off the time out kicking till mid of January in order to give people the chance to get done with the migration. Games that are game over will not be migrated. (Local games wont be migrated.) So far from our side. We will inform you when we are set. Till soon, your DD-Team

Viticulture Menu Update

Dear community,


we are about to introduce a new version of Viticulture Essential Edition soon. In preparation of the tuscany extension we resdesigned viticulture to hold the expansion and we implemented our new main menu. We will also migrate the game onto our new server. Please have a look what the new main menu brings for new features:

Profile



The new profile offers you an improved overview over your game stats and information. We added a statistic to show you your games against AI opponents. Now you'll also be able to see more friends in the list. Another feature is how you can show others your in-game success: Depending on your ranking, your avatar gets a matching border! Start with a copper border and climb the ranking to get a shiny golden one!

Running Games



More categories/filters so you can keep better track of your games.

Lobby Chat



You will be able to open and join public and private chat lobbys to start games. Use the filter to find online players, and friends. In your lobby you will also be able to add AI opponents Try to beat the Cheater AI with your friends! Let others know if you want to play a game by activating the "Looking for game"- Button, so they can send you an invite for their lobby. Stay tuned for more information about how the server migration will work and what we will add to the main menu functions in the future. We will constantly update you prior to the Boardgame Event on steam linked to the announcement.

DIGIDICED in 2021

Dear Community, we are sorry that DIGIDICED took a painful long time to adjust the community communication to the growing interest and demand in the PC sector. In 2021 we want to enhance this situation and flanking our current projects we want to establish a better information flow. PC UI vs. Mobile Device UI DIGIDICED originally started as a developer of Mobile Device games and since it was of interest for us to spread to all possible platforms we did not research thoroughly enough what the demands were for a PC games community. In our limited community research we initially assumed that mostly our mobile community would like to have their version of their already owned games on mobile devices as some kind of widget on PC. So, we thought that they would mostly play their games in a window next to their other leisure time activities on their computers. Hence, we did not plan to have a standalone PC interface, since we did not expect the people to allocate the whole screen or one of their monitors in a 2 monitor setup playing our games. In the beginning we mostly got feedback that backed that assumption. This changed slowly initially and then faster and faster. We adapted our production line to offer a full screen mode that would make use of a full screen UI. Still we thought that this has to happen in our normal financial range. So we came up with an extended mode that would offer no interactive info panels. In our former opinion this was the best way to cover needs and to keep our normal workflow. Already back in 2018/19 we realized that this was not enough and that this approach actually lead to even more unease among the community. At that time we realized that the term Mobile Port was actually not a logical product of our origins but actually a negative stigmata that evolved to a toxic facet of DIGIDICED. In addition to this we also had faulty features and some persisting bugs that we failed to address. We had plans in 2019 to alter this situation. Unfortunately these plans were interrupted due to a very difficult year 2019. Two thirds of the production muscle had to fill a new role as being parents and we made some strategical mistakes that limited our flexibility. As an indie company that can have severe consequences, but of course this is not the horse we want to ride in order to apologize. Even in such an situation a professional way would have been to face the community. Our players buy the game and the support and give their respect if this is done well and of course have a right to be angry if this is not done professionally. This being said we again have to start with an information that will maybe upset some user... We know that especially games are subject of a hobby dearly held by everybody and we know that some experienced more frustration than others. Sadly we cannot recover our relation to all community members on an individual level. We can only try to enhance this situation on a general approach. But we hope that in the future we can win most of these users back as our next steps are based on those community members that decided to fight for their favourite games and who therefor also kept us working hard to find solutions. These people served the community and we hope we can achieve at least some of the demands in an acceptable portion of time. This is what we plan to do in the future: Community Communication We will pull our focus off FB and will more evenly spread our channels for updates so that we will offer the news also on our homepage and also here in the community. We will make use of the beta feature on steam that allows us to have an own Dev page. In this way we can focus the communication and also use this as hub for mirroring our news/updates. We will try to work out a model for bug report and verification that we can handle on our Indie level and probably we will therefor try to find people that are willing to enter the Beta Branches in our games, but also are willing to learn how to make it easy to pinpoint bugs so that those can be verified and located. ( 70% of bug reports are very inaccurate and if it is even a device related issue we are losing a huge amount of time that we cannot allocate as indies that easily) Server Issues and Mainmenu Update At the moment we are developing Gaia Project we decided to use this project to start to create a new server infrastructure. So Gaia is already using the new infrastructure and we hope that this update will cover certain aspects of some issues. We adapted the size of the save games having to be transferred from and to the server. This will address issues that caused game errors during the loading of a game, confirming a move and entering a game that is opened by the next game button. At the moment these operations can cause a freeze that is mostly by passed by a restart but of course this is not a satisfying situation. The new server structure will also speed up/stabilize the display of profile, running games, messages and AI movement in online games. We also are updating the mainmenu. The profile section will now hold more statistical information and it will be easier to browse and interact with friend/player accounts. We will update the account merging process that got more important since we had problems with the weird issue that some platforms created new accounts while using the same device. The Matchmaking will be easier and more clear. Also the display of the running games is being overhauled. We also have some new features that we will offer in beta mode with the upcoming Gaia implementation. (e.g. Tournaments). More helpful documentation... in the new mainmenu we will implement more assistance to standard operations. So we will include more information to timer and time out actions. Also other formerly undocumented functions will be getting information. We will step by step migrate the existing games to the new server after Project Gaia is finished. In a following step we also will step by step update the new mainmenu to the older games. But this will have a hierarchy and no fixed time table. Achievements (maybe one of the most discussed features...) We decided to put those to beta mode, too as we need to simplify the back end solution for that in order to use a more standardized method. Sadly we maneuvered us into a dead end situation that caused so many individual solutions that it is not rectifying to improvise solutions here. We know that this is not what most of you wanted to hear but we will find a solution that all achievements that are based on resources which can be extracted from the statistic will of course be granted. Special achievements that are triggered by information that is not saved in the stats will have to be reachieved after we fixed those. (this does not mean that we erase those cases where they have been achieved already...) Implementing PC Version/ PC UI as mentioned before we do not want to have Mobile Ports for PC anymore. This is a major redesign of our workflow, project structure as well as production costs. We already announced this in connection with our project updates of Project Gaia. So there will be a separate UI for mobile devices and PCs. This touches another major debate here on Steam. This is a consequence of the wishes/feedback of the community and meanwhile also an existential requirement concerning the competition and standards that evolved in the last years for our niche. As we are doing this the first time we are therefor also working on a streamlined process that allows us to standardize the workflow in order to make that a stable procedure in all future projects. Still we wish to also update existing games to have a PC UI as well. Of course this might not reach all of our games, since we have to be careful how to allocate our resources. But we do have a priorization which will include the games Viticulture/Burgundy and Terra Mystica. For now this will be all for this announcement. We will provide a general road map soon in order to display more information and make our progress more transparent. We will also add individual Game info in the planned channels that we post here as well as soon as they get available Cheers and a good start into 2021, your DIGIDICED Team

  • This is the official digital adaption of the boardgame Viticulture by Jamey Stegmaier & Alan Stone.

    You find yourself in rustic, pre-modern Tuscany, where you’ve inherited a meager vineyard.
    You own a few plots of land, an old crush pad, a tiny cellar, 3 workers…and the dream of owning the best winery in Italy.

    Your job is to allocate your workers and helpful visitors to complete various tasks throughout the year.
    Each season is different on a vineyard, so the workers have different tasks they can take care of in
    the summer and winter. There’s competition over those tasks, and often the first worker to arrive at
    each one has an advantage over the rest.

    Using those workers and visitors, you can expand your vineyard by building structures, planting vines,
    and filling wine orders as you work towards the goal of owning the most successful winery in Tuscany.


    Features:

    • 1 to 6 players
    • Family friendly – non violent theme
