The multiplayer plan

The developer describes competing against other players or working together. Connection rules, hosting, save compatibility and final settings are not established by that description. A multiplayer planner remains a future tool until those systems exist.

The city and economy plan

Expanded city needs should make supplying or withholding goods more consequential. A new city is also planned, with a community vote. The vote result, city identity and exact economy rules are not established by the released patch notes.

What the tracker will change

An official dated patch can move this milestone into a shipped state after verification. Until then, the timeline labels it undated. We will not turn a progress bar, an elapsed countdown or an old marketing screenshot into release evidence.
