WHATS IS IN PROVINCES 0.2b

Hello Everyone,

This update was primarily focused on starting to add achievements to the game, starting with the first achievement, which is live in the game now, but this update also focused on multiple bug fixes on top of the brand new achievement.

First Achievement

The First of the achievements that I have planned in Provinces is called Genesis, which is a basic achievement to complete the Tutorial, which is fitting as version 0.2 was released and built around guiding new players through the tutorial, each update from this point will add new fitting achievements based on what was added in that update.

Bug Fixes

  • Fixed a error where facial hair could not be applied to characters in the appearance menu

  • Fixed a issue where characters where not aging over time in play mode

  • added a memory threshold controller to help optimization and provide smoother runtime on longer playthroughs

Character Visual Ageing

Overview of how character ageing currently looks after 11 years played in game.

Game Start

11 years into world

It still needs work and I am currently working on making more character parts and expanded personalities to the game in the next update but this is how simulation current looks in the current version of provinces.
