Hey guys! Another patch coming your way. This one is filled with QoL improvements (like less lag, better coastal building placement, etc), but it's not as big as the previous one (that took forever to make). Going to slow down production a liggle big on the public builds, so we can focus a lot more on the UI revamp, new tech tree and traffic; all things that need a huge amount of dev time.

Meanwhile, please have a look at the new tech tree: http://steamcommunity.com/app/671440/discussions/0/2860219962086861043/

And don't forget our collection of guides: http://steamcommunity.com/app/671440/discussions/0/1700542332324969404/

Now get back to the game and make some money!
