- Update 1.102.0 – Fine tuning, next volume
- Good day, Sea Mayors
- In the past week we’ve been focusing on feedback received since last major update, and decided to make numerous improvements, fixes and another run at additional optimizations.
- Goal is to further smooth out experience our players are having and to improve how game runs and feels. Since Atlantis update was released, we closely monitored everything being said and done. Specific areas in need of enhancements were identified and today’s update is a piece of our answer to that need.
- As all of our players are already aware, there are quite a few more updates in the pipeline, but we’ll keep trying to adhere to our schedule of frequent improvements, and avoid keeping you waiting for a long time.
- One important note here is that the entire game engine has been switched to Visual studio 2022, and that will be significant in the future because it will allow us to conduct a more extensive long term updating plan for Aquatico.
- In any case, below is the list of things we’ve prepared for this week:
- CHANGELOG
