VR devices switching on has been fixed - if the problem still exists let us know. We are working on the other issues

Some of you have encountered errors that make it impossible to start the game. These bugs have been so far:

- VR equipment switching on
- black screen, nothing's loading.
- crash with a bug about the driver.

I'm working on it, I'll add an update as soon as possible. Sorry for the trouble!

Everyone interested can play now!
After many years of work you can finally find out what this game will be like. I've spent a lot of time on this, and I'm going to do even more, so I hope you find the game interesting enough to consider supporting this project :)

I would just like to remind you that this is still an early access so it means that the game is still in production, but this also means that you may encounter some bugs. Over the past month, a brave and patient group of testers have made sure to eliminate the worst ones, but there is always a chance that there is something left.

If you find any bug and you have such a possibility, please report it to me on Steam, I will try to fix this issue as soon as possible!

KNOW BUGS:

• translation errors - there may be a lot of them, we are improving them constantly, but if you can help me with that, I will be very grateful!
  
  
• (probably fixed) - stockpiles when full do not send straw to the brickyard (for example).
  Solution:
  - change the speed of the time from, for example, 1x to 6x and go back to the one you want. This will reset functions and unlock the building.
