Hi there, fellow ylanders. Right now you're probably asking yourself - how are things at the world of Ylands? Good, actually very good. The new website where you will be able to share your creations with others - and download things that others made - is looking better with every passing day and we're very happy with its functionality as well. We plan on telling you more about this sometime during the next week. At the same time we are working on two extremely cool new features that you will get to play within the update coming after 0.4 (and yes, you guessed it, it's 0.5) - unfortunatelly I can't tell you more right now because it would spoil the surprise :). Also, as a part of the ongoing process of letting the world know about Ylands, we're attending two really great events (both held here, in the Czech Republic) - Game Access and Anifilm (actually that's the reason why this Sneak Peek is a bit shorter than usual :)) And that’s it for today. You have a great time, ylanders, and stay classy!

We'll look into that, thanks!

Hi, unfortunately there are currently no plans for storing single player games on the cloud, however once dedicated servers running ylands will become more common (you can run one yourself, but obviously not everyone has means to do that), maybe you could start your world there - not only you'd be able to access the game from anywhere but you would be able, should you decide to, let your friends in as well.

Hmm, that thing does look strangely familiar

Good catch, thanks!

Thanks for reporting that - we will look into it right away!

In case you're talking about the white "crosses" - those are not really artifacts, they are forming a plane that helps you see the grid where blocks are placed. It is possible however, that this thing behaves unexpectedly under water - we'll look into it just in case. Thanks!

Hm, you're right that indeed is a one strange bug... Do you have any idea how this come to happen? Were you drag-and-dropping the item just before this happen? Did the drag-n-drop got interrupted by something (game losing focus etc)? Any info that would help us reproduce this bug is more than welcome!

Do you mean that the raft is rotated inconveniently around the axis that you can imagine as a mast or that it is placed in some really wrong way (perpendicular to the water surface instead of lying over it etc.)?

I see. What we should do next is to take a look at the log files that launcher generates - at C:\Users\<your_username>\AppData\Local\YlandsLauncher there are two log files - YlandsLauncher.log and YlandsLauncher-previous.log - would you please attach those here? Also, could you please tell us the general location from where you're trying to connect? (country should be probably enough). Thanks!

Update: 04/05/2017 Version: 0.3.32637 Fixed the issue where players were unable to load saves made with a character left sitting on a chair/lying in a bed placed on a ship's deck. Fixed the issue where players could get hurt when standing up from a chair. Fixed the issue where minor errors in loading corrupted energy network data from a saved game would reset the entire world.

We are currently discussing possible ways of making the movement between the ylands a bit easier later in the game (especially after your character dies and new one appears). It won't be solved in the upcoming update but in 0.5 or 0.6.

We have found and fixed the bug - your game will be updated later today or tomorrow with a fix that will let you continue playing your saved games. If come across any additional issues be sure to let us know. Thanks for your help and sorry for the inconvenience!

We have been able to locate and fix the issue one might call "murderous chair" - later today or tomorrow your game will get patched with a hotfix. Thanks for your feedback!

Hmm, sounds like there's indeed some nasty issues related to player exiting the game while sailing the ship. Finding the issue and fixing is our top priority right now.

Hi, I'm sorry to hear you have troubles starting the game. Was it just a temporary issues or is it still happening? If so - does turning off your anti-virus temporarily as @Gracekain suggested make any difference?

Thanks, we'll look into it.

Thanks for all the feedback guys, we're already looking into it - I will let you know as soon as we know something (hopefully very soon)

Thanks for your save - we will look into it asap!

Thanks for letting us know! At some point we might let players scale their GUI, but I can't tell when is that going to happen (we'll probably need some more feedback before we start working on it).

Cool! Thanks for letting us know!

Hi Tracat, do you by any chance still have the same game where this thing happened? If so, can you send it to me via PM or put it somewhere where we can download it? Thanks!
