here is an example of why this should not be implemented, it not tested properly and is currently broken.
in this picture you can clearly see there are 3 legitimate magnificent residence positions however in the second picture you can see they will not go.
The two weeds highlighted do not stop building placement of normal buildings but they kill magnificent residence positions, there are probably loads more like this.
pictures relate to border of sector 6/9

Is there a prize for working out where on the islands that is?

not placeable
100% agreement. It's much better to have it right then have it on time. I just wish some management people I know would understand that
Sorry, but I've slept since then...
We were talking about the huge mess on the french servers atm
Is the upcoming change log fixed or should we all put our island to sleep, make sure we have screenshots of our starmenu and not play for a few weeks after the update ?
I will take screen shots of my island and my star menu to make sure nothing gets lost. We have seen BB deploy severely broken updates before even when they knew that they were well and truly broken. They also seem to be totally unable to roll back an update which is strange. I guess the code base for the game is a total mess or something. The simplest way to handle a major bug in a software deployment is to revert back to the last stable version. Apparently, this is impossible for this game as they preferred to actually shut down the ability to trade on the French servers rather than just shut down the servers for a couple of hours and deploy the precious version of the game again. I think they should focus their efforts of making their code actually halfway usable rather than fixing pointless bugs like the whole bush thing.
The simplest and smartest solution to that bug would be to just remove the bushes and let them be regular buildings sites instead. That way they get some good will from the community when they can say that they are handing out extra space for free. Doesn't really matter that it has effectively been free for years. Now they have a buggy mess and an annoyed player base and what do they gain? Well they gain absolutely nothing but loads of work for the devs. So instead of a win-win situation, they chose lose-lose. And here I was, slowly getting some confidence back in the dev team again. Guess I can throw that out of the window.
Really not looking to forward to discovering newly glued down weeds and dirt clods. Even if, for some mysterious reason, the 'shrub removal trick' had to go blocking building spots with fiddly little graphics that were never a problem before is excessive.
In other news, will we be getting these in the update? They're listed and active in France but there's no mention yet of them here.
• Yes please.
• No thank you.
From the chat channels sneak peek forum.thesettlersonline.com/threads/32149-Sneak-Peek-New-chat-features:
There are around 30 chat channels in the game and many of them are hardly used.
With the introduction of the dedicated multi-player adventure channels, the need to provide such a high amount of channels is even lower and therefore it is planned to reduce the number of global channels in 2016 (most likely down to 10 channels).
Hi Kit_, you've omitted a bit.

then it's time to update this:
