Dear City Builders,

We are scheduled to release a version update for the Mandate Order Demo at 15:00 this Thursday（UTC+8）.

This update brings extensive optimizations and bug fixes covering new player experience, graphics settings, sandbox interface, performance, city defense structures, combat judgment, and various UI interaction issues.

The following is the planned update content. All adjustments shall be subject to the officially implemented version in-game.

I. New Additions & Experience Optimizations
