Reporting Bugs

  • Any bugs or requests should go to our mantis bugtracker
    • If you need to submit log files, those can generally be found under your PlayerData/Logs folder in the folder your game is installed in. The most relevant one is called HeartoftheMachineLog.txt. You can send us the whole thing, or just strip out relevant parts.
    • In rare cases, mainly if your entire game crashes (that almost never happens), we will need your unity player log. That gets overwritten the next time you run the game after a crash, unlike the other log. These can be found here:
      • Windows: C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Arcen Games, LLC\Heart of the Machine\Player.log
      • macOS: ~/Library/Logs/Arcen Games, LLC/Heart of the Machine/Player.log
      • Linux: ~/.config/unity3d/Arcen Games, LLC/Heart of the Machine/Player.log

0.593.1

(Not Yet Released)

  • The release notes link in the game has been updated to point to this new page.
  • Have started adding some more goal states, and removed two goal states, as I'm coming to realize I want something more flexible that does not mean "this timeline has reached a full tier 1 goal state" in the sense I previously meant it. There's a lot more interesting opportunities to mix and match for players when I'm not being that monolithic.
  • When savegames are loaded, they now specify what the version of the save was in the log where it says how long it took to load. This is not really useful for anyone but myself and perhaps some testers, to see if a loaded save is really from the version that a bug reporter says it is.

Balance

  • Daily Necessity storage caps are now 10x higher from each storage bunker, as the cap was too easily hit.
  • Residential MegaStructures can now hold 2x the population they previously did, and 1.5x the amount of VR Day-Use Seats.
  • The requirement for reaching intelligence class 4 has been tripled, and the other intelligence classes above it have also been increased substantially.

Bugfixes

  • Fixed an issue where you were getting refunded for mental energy you didn't actually spend when scrapping structures or jobs.
    • Thanks to Fluffiest for reporting.
  • Contemplations now show what their requirements are in the lower left description of them when you hover them, rather than first making you select a unit and then hover them to find out if you pass or fail.
  • I've put in extra protections against some random "wealth goes to excess for one turn, or even a few turns" bugs that I'm not sure how to trigger, but which were definitely on the prior build, just very rare.
    • Thanks to Lukas for reporting.
