It seems to me going through these forums that the game is riddled with bugs. It was asked if an update was due to come out soon and the answer was not for a while since the developer wanted to fix as many bugs as possible before the update is released. It seems to me that the as many bugs as possible should have been fixed before the original release because I for one feel cheated that I payed for sub-standard programing. Granted there are no other games out there like this one but when the updated version comes out, Are we going to have to pay for that as well, in order to enjoy the game as it SUPPOSED to run in the first place?

There will be no charge for the update for those who purchased v1.0 of Village Sim. Most of the bugs in v1.0 are minor, and there are workarounds for the others. If you're having significant difficulty with your game, there is help available.

I was just wondering because every time I turn on my game in the morning all my villigers are dead or MISSING except for the useless children and maybe one or two teenagers. I made the POST: Dissapointed and if you read that you will see that I have had nothing but frustration with this game to include the bugs that make my villagers dissapear.

I did read (and respond to) your "Disappointed" post, but the deaths and disappearances you described do not appear to be related to bugs. In the early stages of the game there are circumstances that can cause your villagers not to 'survive the night,' especially if you are running the game on fast speed. You can usually avoid killing off a lot of villagers by controlling your population growth in the early stages of the game, making sure there is adequate food from more than one source, and researching higher levels of medical technology.

I have been putting the game on slow during the night but
I will give it another shot. Pausing the game just to make it through the night didn't make any sense to me because I have left Fish and Plant Tycoon on fast during the night and all the fish and plants survive. It's supposed to be a simulation so I left it running. I will take your advise and pause the game and posts the results in a 2 days. I have to build up my techs again.

i haven't seen a single bug yet.... what are you running maybe conflicts?? i have a t5

Hi JunkG.

Sorry the game is not treating your device well. The problems revolve around a few devices, and not all users on these devices are experiencing problems. One of the offenders, however, is the Zire 71. Have you tried the game on your 72?

We are working hard as I speak on rewriting parts of the code in hopes of improving stability. We will also fix as many bugs as we can shake a stick at, then release the 1.1 update for free to everyone who purchased the game.

If you continue to experience issues, feel free to contact me and I can help you with some possible workarounds that have proven effective.

No, I have tried it on my 72 and I didn't want to because the thing sucks up so much power. The processor eats up to much juice so I don't use it for games. I use my 71 for games and have not had any problems with any other games. But as you know I was leaving the game running at night on normal so we will see what happens when I slow it down (or pause it) at night.
