• A new save/load dialog added.
• Folk now visibly eat food.
• Folk now like eating apples.
• ** Tree seeds and stones now expire after 2 minutes (unless you pick them up), like dung does. **
• Resized and moved the disclaimer for externally edited files. It can now also be clicked through :)
• Inventory names have been replaced by icons and name rollover popups added.
• Inventory capacity of Basic Bots reduced from 10 to 6.
• Energy of Crude Bots reduced from 2 minutes to 1 minute.
• Carry capacity of Basic Bots reduced from 6 to 4.
• Cows no longer try to go for cereal or straw (for now; this was causing too many problems).
• You shouldn't have been able to add ingredients to a Blueprint while standing inside it.
• Bots were able to hold other Bots if you used the Inventory to drag them into the Bot's hands.
• Repeat Until Storage Full was incorrectly reporting "not full" if a Bot was trying to put an invalid object into the storage.
• Repeat Until Hands Full wouldn't work properly with any tools.
• Putting a bucket into an incinerator would result in an invisible bucket still being in your hands. If play continued this would lead to a corrupted save file.
• Mallets or chisels couldn't be put into storage.
• It wasn't possible to whistle for a Bot if it only had MoveTo instructions.
• If two Bots were waiting to recharge another Bot they would both attempt to recharge the same Bot when one became available.
• If two Bots were waiting to milk a cow they would both attempt to milk the same cow when one became available. Ouchy!
• If the Repeat dropdown was open when you picked up or stored an object, the game would no longer allow any user input.
• If a Bot was trying to put something into a full Storage and you tried to put something else into the Storage the Bot would incorrectly think their item had been accepted and moved on to the next instruction.
• If a Bot was moving to plant a seed but you placed a Blueprint on top of the Bot's destination, the Bot would plant the seed inside the Blueprint.
• If a Beacon was put into a Bot's hands and you hovered the selector over the Beacon radius effect, the Bot would be selected.
• Giving a bucket of milk to homeless Folk would lead to odd offsets.
• Entering more than a single-digit number into Repeat X Times would only show the last digit.
• Dung expired if it was picked up and put down.
• Due to the width of the Bot Brain panel, you couldn't set a beacon for "Find nearest weeded soil."
• Changing the setting of the Bench Saw to "Poles" as a Bot put a Log into it would result in the log being ejected and the Bench Saw unusable for the rest of the game.
• Buckets from a Version 5 save wouldn't work.
• Buckets couldn't be put into storage.
• Bucket contents weren't being saved.
• Bridges couldn't be built on deep water.
• Bots couldn't route find to a bridge foundation.
• Attempted fix for 'black' tiles on DX9 video cards.
• A gate wouldn't animate open and shut when a Bot went through it.
• A Bot couldn't be charged if it was standing in a gate.
• A Bot couldn't be charged if it was standing in a Blueprint.
• A Bot could dig under a Beacon, which meant a tree would grow around the Beacon and hide it.
• If something was given to a Folk that it didn't want, and it was sitting next to deep water, it would sometimes throw the object into the water making it irretrievable.
• If a player/bot tried to put an ingredient into an un-reachable blueprint the player/bot would head towards the top left corner of the map (but only if a bridge had been built to allow them access to the corner of the map).
• Sometimes a bot couldn't find Tilled Soil even when it was right next to some.
• Cereal Crops that were sown using Cereal Seed weren't growing to their full height when a level was loaded.
• Bots are unable to find boulders when mining.
• Butter Churn, Kitchen Table and Water Storage couldn't be deleted.
• Sometimes a hoeing robot couldn't find a Soil file.
