After the May Hot Fix went live, another PUP with the June Hot Fix went online! To play it, switch to the pup_may_june branch on Steam :slight_smile:

I like being able to toggle off solid farms with D3 mode. Solid farms now seem odd to me, and I prefer not using them.

Stupid question, how to you get the June update, I have the May update?

I’m surprised the RoR AI levels scaling better isn’t one of the changes.

Does the Caravanserai fix also include the aura speeding up way too many units way too much, or is it only the healing? Does anyone know?
