Tropico 6 Update 22 - Acuerdos entre amigos

Fellow Tropicans,

We have just released Update 22 for Steam, PC, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One and PlayStation 4 | 5.
With Update 22, we have added new free content with the “Trading Post” building, which allows you to send wares to other players in multiplayer and foreign superpowers and create trade routes for that ware.
Furthermore, we have various other fixes in our update repertoire.

For more details, please check out the full changelog below.

Viva Tropico!


New Building:

• Added the “Trading Post” to the game, which can be found in the “Traffic & Infrastructure” construction menu).
• The Trading Post enables you to send wares to foreign superpowers, which creates a trade route for that ware. Trade routes improve the more goods you send. In Multiplayer Mode, you can use the Trading Post to send wares to other players who also own a Trading Post.
• The “More Samples” building upgrade reduces the time until you can ship to the same superpower again by -25%. Existing cooldowns are not affected.

Gameplay Adjustments:

• Pirate attacks have been adjusted. Once a building with resources got destroyed, they plunder the resources. When they have plundered enough, they leave Tropico again if not defeated by the player. Adjustments to the amount of plunder scales are possible with the "Pirate Difficulty" in the Sandbox settings.
      ○ This change was based on your community feedback as it fits the pirate theme more.

Fixes:

• Fixed some issues with old generated random map codes, where landscape features and resources were displaced after loading.
• Fixed some issues with road placement when demolishing Tunnels.
• Fixed an issue where plantations were granted the “Multiculture” workmode bonus while paused.
• Fixed an issue where soldiers from Barracks and Army Bases were not immediately running to the workplace during an attack.
• Reduced the size for militia-squads from 5 to 4, so that Police Stations can now spawn a squad without the “second shift” upgrade.
• Fixed an issue where Militia squads spawned from Police Stations without a Military Minister of Defense existing in the game.
• Fixed an issue where the “Survivor” Achievement was not unlocked after completion on the Acantilado Humeante sandbox map.
• Fixed an issue where the “Golden Silverware” workmode of the Gourmet Restaurant wrongly gave a bonus to superpower standing.
• Fixed several issues with the “Lure Fish” workmode of the Snorkel Bay. In addition, a display for the replenishing rate to fish deposits has been added.
• Fixed an issue where the “Tourist only”button showed up in the UI of Tourist Buildings, where it was already redundant.
• Fixed an issue where the radiobroadcasts for Landmarks were not playing when they were built within less than 1 year of each other.
• Fixed an issue where the babies’ ethnicity was random and independent from its parents.
• Fixed an issue with odd values in workmode-descriptions of the Childhood Museum. (T6DEV-7063)
• Fixed an issue where the Fire-Fighting Helicopter was still usable while the Fire Station was paused.
• Fixed an issue where rubble appeared under stackable buildings when adding new stacks.
• Fixed an issue where the Dock was wrongly placed on the ocean on randomly generated maps.
• Fixed an issue where several Props did not show up in some buildings.
• Fixed an issue where the consequences when ending work shifts were applied multiple times under certain circumstances (for example during an industrialist escalation).
• Fixed an issue with homeless citizens not leaving their last visited building while the “No more Shacks” edict is active.
• Fixed an issue where visitor agents got stuck after relocating a building through the "Relocate" interaction button.

DLC Fixes:

• [Caribbean Skies/Festival DLC] Fixed an issue where Balloon Tours and Ticket Booths accepted Tropicans as visitors, despite being a Tourist only building.
• [New Frontiers DLC] Fixed an issue where a third Layer of the Capsule Hotel only added 5 visitor slots instead of 6.
• [New Frontiers DLC] Fixed an issue where the Moon Space Mission prevented disasters forever, and being enabled though disasters are disabled in sandbox games.
• [New Frontier DLC] Fixed an issue where all immigrants that were awarded by the “Filming on Location” quest were male.
• [Going Viral DLC] Fixed an issue where the happiness-reduction for red Panic-level did not work correctly.

Multiplayer Fixes:

• Fixed some graphical issues when saving and loading a multiplayer savegame during a Drought or Thunderstorm Disaster.
• Fixed an issue where the Task List was not working correctly in multiplayer.
• Fixed an issue where players were sometimes switching positions after loading a multiplayer savegame.
• Fixed some issues where loading big multiplayer games could lead to desync problems.
• Fixed an issue where the "Repair" button shows up after clicking on an opponent's Palace or Outpost.

Other:

• Several localization fixes and improvements, especially regarding feedback from the Russian modding community.
• Fixed several rare issues that could lead to corrupted savegames.
• Fixed a rare crash after choosing an option in the dialog shown when loading a savegame with different mods loaded.
• Several further crashes have been fixed.

Grim Dawn’s latest major content update is coming June 19th (at approximately 12PM EDT). With overhauled Nemesis spawns, rebalanced monster Physical damage and vastly expanded build options for pets you should find all new ways to conquer the endgame, or bring some old favorites back!

[Major New Features]

Two-handed melee move sets have been overhauled with all new updated animations. Two-handed spears are now classified as spears and have appropriate animations!
Nemesis boss spawns have been overhauled. Nemesis bosses now appear randomly nearby when you slaughter monsters of their faction that grant experience and/or infamy, with more progress granted in Challenge Areas. Nemesis bosses no longer have fixed spawn points. Each Nemesis can still only spawn once per session.
Item tooltips now hide detailed information for Components, Augments, and Skills by default, and do not include those factors in tooltip comparisons. By holding ctrl, all of this information is restored and is then included in tooltip comparisons. This was done to dramatically reduce tooltip bloat as much of this information is not required the majority of the time. This new tooltip behavior can be disabled by enabling Detailed Item Tooltips in the game options.
% Physical Resist has been rebalanced across the entire game. Physical Resist is now available in more restricted gear slots, and in smaller amounts. To compensate, monsters now deal less Physical damage. This change was made to narrow the gap between builds capable of stacking excessive amounts of % Physical Resist and those that struggled to get % Physical Resist in the first place.
Most consumables are now organized into one of three categories: Elixirs, Oils, and Tinctures. These categories share cooldowns and you can only benefit from one Elixir, Oil and Tinctures at any given time. The Aether Cluster and Potion of Clarity are notable exceptions.
Oil consumables have had their durations increased to 900s. Bonuses updated or redesigned accordingly.
This update includes a major pass on pet skills and itemization. Some of these changes might seem alarming in a vacuum, but the net result is a significant boost for pet builds with less keybinds required. In summary: pets are going to be attacking slower, but their special attacks are much more powerful. Permanent pets are tougher than their temporary counterparts and deal more damage. A significant portion of power has been taken out of pet sets and transferred to the base skills and pet Constellations, making non-set pet builds more viable.

Patch 19 June 2024

• fixes for the keyboard controlls and other minor issues

Patch notes for 19/06/2024

v3.5.9.38413

Hounds Balancing

From the data we’ve tracked regarding the balancing of the Clan, the Clan doesn’t seem to be too strong overall (Winrate in ranked: 35% in Duel | 51% in 3v3 | 3% in FFA), but we’ve seen from your feedback many of you still find it too strong in some settings, so the strength of the Clan may be still unbalanced at higher ranks. We’ll be investigating this in particular, but in the meantime, we’re still reducing its stronger aspects to prevent potential exploits.

Knowledge

[i]We’ve seen many discussions about Bloodthirst, and the fact it’s breaking a fundamental rule about healing in combat, which is something we usually do not allow, as we’ve lately made changes to some clans to reinforce this (like the Eagle boneyard, and Snake Scorched Earth).
We usually prevent this because, on a large warband, this can lead to long and frustrating fights for the opponents, where it can feel like the enemy is not even taking damage.[/i]

[i]We do allow it in some cases where it increases the survival chances of a few important units. We do, for example, allow it for Torfin with the knowledge Unstoppable, and the same logic applies to Hounds. As the Clan has the smallest warband among all clans, it is easier to target one unit to take down, and each unit lost is a significant setback for the Clan, so it needs ways to help its units survive the fight.
We will decrease the speed at which it heals the units to make it less frustrating to the opponents. Still, we do not want to remove the possibility of healing during combat, as it is already not fast enough to prevent a unit from being killed if targeted.[/i]

Bloodthirst

• At a speed of 1̶ ̶H̶P̶ ̶p̶e̶r̶ ̶s̶e̶c̶o̶n̶d̶   → 0,75 HP per second

Units

Foxskin

• Attack Power 1̶2̶,̶5̶  → 12
• Shredding Claws (Lvl 2 ability)
      ○ Each attack slows the target by -̶7̶,̶5̶%̶  → -3%
      ○ With Hord Instinct each Foxskin increases this value by +̶2̶,̶5̶%̶  → +1,5%
      ○ To a maximum of -̶2̶0̶%̶  > -15%

• Hunter’s Mark (Lvl 3 ability)
      ○ No longer reduces the target speed
      ○ Increase the damages they receive by +̶3̶5̶%̶  > +15%
      ○ With Hord Instinct each Foxskin increases this value by +̶1̶0̶%̶  > +3%

Bearskin

Similarly to the heal during combat of Bloodthirst, we’ve seen many discussions about the fairness of Death Deceiver and the ability to make a unit unkillable for a few seconds. As this only affects one unit at a time and only lasts a few seconds, for us, it is a tool for the Clan to avoid losing a valuable unit without a chance to react and not something we want to remove. But we’ll make the effect last a bit less time to try and make it less frustrating to opponents.

• Death Deceiver (Lvl 3 ability)
      ○ Make the first unit in the zone to die invincible for 3̶ ̶s̶e̶c̶o̶n̶d̶s̶  > 2 seconds

Bugfix

• Cross of Vidar - Fixed raid in mission 4 getting stuck
• Hounds - Fixed foxes soul size when summoned from a dead Foxskin
• Hounds - Fixed Wild Hunt event not working when foes were killed in conquest mission God's Fury
• Hounds - Fixed Brawler not forging the sword in conquest mission Shards of Misfortune
• Hounds - Fixed carcass not collectable if too close to a border of a tile
• Hounds - Fixed a crash with the last bonus conquest if spectral doesn’t have the space to be spawned
• Owl - Fixed Healing Herbs military experience earned when placed on the Clan of the Hound
• Owl - Fixed erudition lore not granting a free lorestone if placed in an ally territory before reaching 30 in relation
• Raven - Fixed life amount for the giant sent in raids
• Boar - Fixed herbalism not working as intended
• Stoat - Fixed an issue with Military upgrade that all could be placed on different Sentry camp
• Snake - Fixed tile discovered by Scorched Earth in conquest mission “Lands of Oblivion”
• Kingdom - Fixed camera position at the start of a game
• Conquest - Fixed foes being invisible when attacking in conquest “Lands of Oblivion”
• Conquest - Fixed hostility in conquest mission “Gem cutter”
• Save - Fixed some crash when loading a save
• Crashes - Fixed crash caused by special character in player tag
• AI - Fixed AI not building lighthouse
• Environment - Fixed crows life bar
• Achievement - Fixed “Knowledge is power” not unlocking
• Relic - Fixed relic being forged instantly when forged in first

Known Issues

• Translation issues in some texts
• Endless slowing effect after being hit by a foxskin (occasionally - details or videos needed )
• Server issues

Update #28: Version 1.4.0 FINALIZING

Hello everyone and welcome to the notes of version 1.4.0, also called “The Final Patch.” After this update we consider the project to be finished and will enter maintenance mode. In short, we will cease active development of content for the game and will only periodically release small bug fix patches if any such action is required. It has been a wild couple of years and we are proud of what we have managed to achieve with the game and as always thank you to our fans for the continued support. This was initially supposed to be a small “bug fix” patch, but we decided to add a little something (or little somethings) into the mix.

So, let’s get the ball rolling on what you get in this patch.

Update Highlights

New Additions

The base game map will now have “Night Terrors”, which will appear after day 24. These new enemies are tied to an additional elevator you might find inside Ark level 3. As for what, where and when, I will leave that for you to find out. The night terrors were originally something that a team member included as "an upcoming feature" in one of these update posts something like two years ago, probably as a mistake. I have been jokingly pestering him ever since about “when exactly are these night terrors going to be added to the game?” It seems he finally caved in.

Both Frore and Hibernus regions have been expanded a little. The player is now able to open a shortcut of sorts between the two. There are a couple of sub-locations, couple of new POIs and a food recipe to be found. “Badnews Bay” is the place to look for an initial entrance.

There are some quality of life changes as well, the most important of which is that if you are a DLC owner, you are now able to use the link towers to travel between the main map and the DLC maps provided you have invented the compass and you have opened a link tower in any DLC map. For that one person who likes to play Dysmantle on their second monitor, the game now remembers which monitor you set it to so you can rest easy.

Bugs, Balance & Buddies

Otherwise there is a massive amount of smaller and larger bug fixes. Of the larger ones, there were some huge issues with some quests being unable to be completed if you did certain things in “wrong order”, namely the DLC1 main quest during a certain link tower phase. There were also cases where the player was unable to enter the final DLC2 platform. The final larger issue was with DLC3 Isle of Doom & Isle of Mana questlines. These have been fixed. Some minor UI revisions should make some map information easier to parse and for some UI elements to work better in a variety of display resolutions.

Besides fixes, there are some tweaks and balance changes here and there. There are minor revisions of content all around the island, but these are pretty much only something that a person who has spent most of this decade working on the game would notice. Lockpicks are now cheaper, so there are a few more locked doors in the early game. Gas clouds can now (mostly) be evaporated by destroying nearby pipes from which they emanate. Most larger buildings now have fire extinguishers. There was a boring stretch of wilderness so there are now a couple of burnt cars there. Things like that.

Pets & Dungeons DLC owners should notice that their pet can’t kill them anymore, which is always a huge plus for any pet owner. We removed the collisions so you can’t be pushed down a ravine by a well meaning but otherwise oblivious buddy. Enemies will also change targets to you from a stunned pet, so you can’t use them as bait anymore. All in all the pets should also behave better, not destroying things you don’t want them to. Finally, the “Lab Guardian” boss has been replaced by a custom made one, for which we have our community moderator Arianna to thank for.

Final Thoughts.

There will likely be some hotfixes to this patch as it is never as simple as releasing a patch titled “final” and everything working 100%, but for content, this is it.

Kind of a weird feeling to be honest. At the same time there is a wistful sense of finality, but on the other hand a huge sense of relief as it is done. Literally done.

As for what’s next for us: In anticipation of ever more challenging projects we have increased our size from 10 people in 2020 to 14 now in 2024. We will still be developing our own engine further to make sure it can power all of our future projects. One of the projects has been revealed so far, a fantasy spin-off of Dysmantle called Dysplaced. We are now working hard on getting it ready for Early Access. We are also working on another project, but it is still far away from any sort of reveal so you will just have to stay tuned. I guess that’s all for now. Happy spring to everyone!

-Hazamuth & All of 10tons.

• Added a new death quote for when Chosen Champions kill the player, as the latter happens quite a lot (sorry)

A New Build is OUT - Patch 1.170.0618W - Hotfix & Localization

Hey everyone,

Hot on the heels of last week’s Old Acquaintances release, today we’re deploying a hotfix to ameliorate the issues that players have reported. We are happy to see that there were no big problems, and even happier with the great feedback we’ve received from the players currently enjoying the DLC.

This hotfix also includes further use of DeepL technology in the machine translation of Vagrus's vast text base, notably adding translations for the contents of the 'Clandestine' Update and the _Old Acquaintances_ DLC itself. Additionally, the update incorporates improved translation quality across the board (for most of the machine-translated languages in the game) due to the recent improvements of DeepL technology.

As always, we will be closely monitoring feedback from our Discord, the Steam forums, and all other channels. In the meantime, we hope you are enjoying the new content and wish you luck out there. Stay resilient, stay vigilant and conquer the wasteland!

Now let's jump into the patch details:

Important Note: We tried our best giving you a polished product, but given the game's complexity it might happen that something slipped under the radar. If you see something amiss, please flag it to us using the usual channels, like the inbuilt reporting tool (F1 button), forums, and our Discord server.

Patch 1.170.0618W

• Fixed an issue where controllers brought up the radial menu in the wrong place when interacting with nodes out of March range.
• Fixed an issue with Event text scrolling speed when using controllers and setting the scroll speed either on the minimum or maximum value.
• Changed the default Movement direction with Combat Skills involving movement. Now the default is staying in the same line (instead of the topmost line), though all valid positions are still available, of course.
• Fixed a rare crash caused by opening Price History in settlements.
• Bonus Resourcefulness is now granted the first time a Companion is Downed during the Tutorial if there is not enough to use Aid to prevent a softlock due to the Tutorial prompt.
• All Companions’ Prowess can now be reset in Dissonance Mode (including Eylani, Vorax, Sedarias, and Javek).
• In most Events where you needed fighters for a choice, but Outriders and other armed crew made sense, now those fulfill the requirements, too.
• Various (mostly minor) spelling, grammatical, scripting, and stylistic fixes in Events, especially in Old Acquaintances.
• Machine translation was added to the new content of Clandestine Part I. as well as Old Acquaintances.

Patch 1.7.1 lets you gain skills from any quest you encounter

This week’s patch allows you to leave the temple without committing to a quest in any difficulty mode. At the same time the incentive to still commit has been increased: you always increase your max hope by 2 and you also going to get 10 knowledge points!

In addition, while traveling through the world you can complete any one quest per destination and gain a skill, regardless whether you are committed to do another quest elsewhere.

Gameplay changes

• You start a new world with 25 knowledge points instead of 10.
• Completing a quest you committed to always increases your hope by 2.
• Completing a quest you committed to also increases your knowledge points by 10.
• Interacting with the map in the library in Haven allows you to spend knowledge points and to commit to quests. (The options are removed when you simply go to the map).
• You can leave the Temple in Haven without being committed to a quest, unless you are still playing the prologue.
• Completing any quest allows you to learn a skill, and generates a screen that offers you to return to Haven.
• The Open World difficulty mode has been renamed ‘Journey Back’ to reflect that it now only affects whether or not you are offered a free journey back to Haven.
• Significantly reduces the rate at which your weapons degrade when fighting small creatures and other targets that are marked as ‘soft’.

Bug Fixes

• Cleans up some issues with using controllers to interact with the map in Haven.
• Mercian Staffs carried by certain red skeletons no longer cause the game to freeze while building a level.
• Corrects spelling of the ‘thirsty’ status.
• Campsites can no longer be too close to one another.
• Clans and other factions cannot lay claim to a site where you have committed to a quest.
• Fixes an issue with the connectivity of specific versions of the Marang Keep levels.
• Map nodes in the ocean are no longer considered valid travel destinations.
• Fixes a generation issue with the forested hill template.

French, Spanish, and Bugfixes
