Hi, these are some bugs and suggestions that I found during playing the game. Hope this help:

1. Quick save: since later stages (especially 6 waves mission) can take more than 2 hours, it's a good idea to add some kind of save features. If you don't want player to be able to reload game (in case of screws up), then just delete the save after loading.

2. I've wrote this before, but during sandstorm, all turrets are knocked-out despite having tons of both electricity an stored power. Also, when the batteries inside turrets run out, they're also knocked out despite clear weather and having tons of electricity (and stored power) available.

3. Truck priority. AI's truck could have some tweak, or perhaps you can add some priority options (on the garage or truck). I have tons of trucks and roads, should be more than enough to keep entire economy going. But despite that, the truck keeps delivering ores and food, which is good, but they neglect the fertilizer plants (they keep it empty for too long time) even after crossing the plant multiple times with empty cargo (the waste plant and fertilizer plant is very close each other and can be traveled in one go).

You can add options so a certain truck is dedicated to certain facilities.

4. Keyboard shortcut. Like R for road placement, C for community center, etc. This is important during wave since we can't pause and we need to be fast.

5. Ability to undo last action. So when I accidentally place something in wrong place, or bulldoze wrong building, I can instantly correct my mistake.

Thanks for playing and providing feedback!

1. This is something we want to do, but it's a big technical challenge so we haven't started on it yet.

2. This is a known bug and will be fixed in the next version.

3. We're working on making the trucks smarter, but don't really want to add any micro-managing on the player's side. Trucks will also be able to collect from waste dumps in the next version.

4. We used to have this for roads and pylons, but took it out for some reason. We have too many buildings to give each one a key though. Not sure what the solution should be.

5. I'll think some more about this. Might be worth doing if I can find an easy way to implement it. Might also make less sense once buildings take some time to construct and deconstruct.

Hey! I know you probably get asked this a lot, but any ETA on the new update? :) It's just that I'm excited to play more! :)

We're hoping for end of November, but we've got a lot to do around that time so no promises!

The truck problem is not just on waste dump/fertilizer plant... Sometimes they just neglect some plants, especially on isolated place (like out of place ore mines)... but sometimes near plants can also be neglected. I have several times ore mines hit maximum capacity... and I always have lots of trucks and roads.

The priority options isn't mandatory, so it's not adding much micromanaging for the player. Actually one truck for one building is more than enough, but since we can't dedicate trucks to a particular building, one truck one building is suddenly not enough.

Hello Robbie !

Just a quick not to help you find a solution for 4). Have you played Age Of Empires 2 ? there is many buildings in this old gem, more than a keyboard could handle, so what they do is they split buildings by category so that you press 1 key to select a category then another to select building within selected category. I believe it would fit nicely in your game since you already have categories as well :)

I've certainly played a loooot of AoE 2 :P

Worth considering something like that. We're gonna overhaul the tool panel at some point, so we'll see what that looks like first.
