Thank you SO much @kimbuck, we'll investigate and try and figure out, what the h#@!l is going on.

Please, these are really serious issues we want to address. Please when this happens, coul you go to this folder: \Program Files(86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Ylands\Ylands_Data And send me either here in DMs or on Discord DMs the output_logs and output_logs_clean? Please, it would REALLY help @kimbuck I know that some of you have sent logs in the past and those were helpful, but with newer and newer versions of the game, we need new logs, because different stuff could be going wrong than before or the game might be reacting differently. Thank you so much for helping us out ?

There was a small fix on Nitrados side, so maybe try it out now if it works? They're still working on a FAQ of sorts @bojo2736

When something happens in your game (like not being able to connect to a server) you can then switch Ylands off and search here: \Program Files(86)\Steam\steamapps\common\Ylands\Ylands_Data There will be a few files there, and two of them (output_logs and output_logs_clean) are the ones we're looking for ?

Nitrado was supposed to provide a FAQ and instructions on how to use their product but we are still waiting on that. We'll probably make our own instructions in the meantime, but I'll ask Filip, why it's not uploading the way it should ?

So here you should be able to upload any scenario, that you create. The file you upload is the one you get from typing the command /createdssave while in the game in question. That will save into here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\<steam id>\298610\local\ServerGames We just tried it and it works...

That will be fixed in the next update hopefully.

Check out Aleš's clarification in the Dev Diary, but the plan isn't going to have a huge map with a 100 Islands (since that is also not technically possible) but more little maps, that can be travelled to and from.

We are looking into ways of making the Inventory more customisable ? With the menu we do not have any plans to redo it any time soon but that may change over time.

Yes, we did it on purpose, because the Spawn Island is supposed to be just your starting point on your journey. That is why Iron is found in caves on different islands. We will consider some solutions for this but it was a dev decision.

I really love the art style you have going ? Especially the dark elves are SO cool ?

I sometimes feel the same ? As I have mentioned many times before, we are not a huge team, we do not have limitless money and unfortunately, that means we don't have 8 QA people available to play nonstop an Exploration game for a week trying to break it. In this (like many other smaller teams out there) we rely on our community and info that they give us. So unfortunately without the help of the community, we aren't as effective at fixing bugs like we are, when we are working with the community (which we are trying to do). We appreciate all community members, that help us out with bugs and it is really cool ,when we can work on making this game better together ? And I hope while helping each other out, we figure out these pesky bugs.

Yes there is. I asked our programmers and when you are playing the Exploration map in question, you need to write into the chat the command /createdssave and it should create the necessary file here: C:\Program Files (x86)\Steam\userdata\<steam id>\298610\local\ServerGames If you upload that, it should work ?

If you open up the Editor in Ylands and then in the top left pick "Open Recent" there should be you Exploration game hopefully.

I played the older version of Ylands and it is very cool ? But to get back on point we are working on Expanding Exploration a lot as I mentioned here: so hopefully you'll like what we're cooking up

Nope, we had to finish up the Editor and now our hands are free(ish) to work on exploration ? We are not planning on adding 1st person in the near future, though we are working on an updated building mechanic to make building and working with stuff easier. You'll probably be able to see other Islands (because the visibility is much higher now) but there will be more to Explore beyond that ?

We never lie and we are working on a big Exploration update (as I mentioned elsewhere) so keep a lookout for more info coming soon ?

We are very proud of the music our Audio designer has made in the past year and are not considering reverting back to the old music any time soon. We will be adding some more though ? We are working on expanding Exploration ? Look out for more info soon. The reason was time constraint, because every animation took double the time to make, because we had to make it for 3rd and 1st person. This is why we decided to switch to pure 3rd person. We are listening and that is why we are now doubling down on delivering a full Exploration experience. You probably will be able to see some Islands from the beginner Islands, but there will be much more to Explore beyond that ? We only promise what we belive that we can deliver. A few times we didn't manage this because of unforeseen circumstances or changes in direction but we always strive to deliver. Yep, will do, though for the last year I think we did a pretty good job talking to everyone and collecting their suggestions. The big Exploration update that is coming is the culmination of these efforts (this is not something we decided yesterday but something we're planning the better part of this whole year) ? Never mad because of suggestions, we love suggestions and feedback ? We won't be reverting to the old designs, but we will be adding some new ones along the way ?

Yeah, we're trying to hire someone to help us out with the wiki and other supporting materials ?

Please for these issues if you could make a forum post with output_logs/screenshots/reproduction steps, then we can start fixing them. All of these we'd love to fix, but we can't do it without info ? Nah I understand you completely ? We changed the focus on the "main store page" but the Exploration pack (and its description is still all about exploration and as I mentioned (and Aleš will mention in tommorrows Dev Diary), we are preparing a huge Exploration update with more to come.

So we're going to add this soon ? Hopefully next update.

Nah, I absolutely understand your concern ? But actually we got new team members specifically for the mobile version (who are mobile experts) so it didn't take any time away from the core team ?

I'll pass your good wishes to @Aleš Ulm, I'm sure he'll be happy to hear ? And with Aleš back at the helm thighs really will change as you'll get the chance to find out in this week's Dev Diary ?

Btw @bojo2736, you can now get you servers from Nitrado again ? Not sure if everything is up and running, but it seems so ? https://server.nitrado.net/eng/offers/Ylands

We'll look into the bug, thank you for reporting it. As for the sizes in mobile, since mobile is based off of the PC version and you create mobile games on the PC in the Editor, it probably wouldn't work to then have different size in the mobile version, but I'll ask if there are any plans to change up the sizes at all...
