Hey there,
I've seen some videos about this game on YouTube and downloaded it right away.
It's very nice, runs very well and the amount of bugs is rather low.
BUT I've found some bugs and one of them keeps me from bringing my business to the next level.
First my software:
I'm running Alpha 0.0.7, 64-bit on Windows 10 Pro 64-bit, version 1607, build 14393.693
Graphics driver: NVIDIA ForceWare 378.66 WHQL
Some general info about my hardware:
CPU: FX-6100 running with 6 cores at 4.4 GHz
Motherboard: Gigabyte GA-990FXA-UD3 revision 1.2 with BIOS version FE
RAM: 2 x 4 GB Corsair Vengeance + 2 x 4 GB Crucial Ballistix (16 GB total) DDR3 running at 1600 MHz
GPU: Gigabyte GeForce GTX 1060 6 GB G1 Gaming running with 2000 MHz on the core and 9200 MHz (effective) on the memory
One major bug I found turns every ingot into copper heads on the anvil.
Cooled copper -> heated copper -> copper heads -> copper products
Cooled tin -> heated tin -> copper heads -> copper products
Cooled iron -> heated iron -> copper heads -> copper products
The list probably goes on, but I lost so much money by buying tin and iron ingots while selling them as copper products that I simply couldn't afford more than iron ingots.
Edit: I've started a new game and this time I got up to titanium. The trick is to buy 5 ingots whenever you switch to a new ingot. Previously used ingots should be sold or thrown away before using the new ones. The first 1-3 heads made with the new ingots will still be of the previous type, but after that they will be of the new (correct) type.
Another bug happens when quitting the game with assembled products in the shop. After restarting the game all heads are heated again and the products are disassembled into seperate pieces.
Often restarting the game totally screws with the gamma setting and sometimes also resolution scale. Resetting the graphics settings fixes this.
AI rarely gets stuck on the shop door, preventing them from placing orders and preventing other customers from coming. Restarting the game fixes this, closing the shop and sleeping does not.
Products sometimes get stuck in the assembly table. Rotating them makes them unstuck.
Sometimes customers pay me less money for the products than I paid for the materials (9 $ for a copper dagger, really?).
Edit: I noticed that this is caused by the products not having a material specified. Sometimes a copper dagger just shows up as a dagger or a copper greathammer only shows up as greathammer. Doesn't happen often though.
Throwing a glowing head into the water by pressing left and right mouse button can make the head disappear (I really couldn't find it anywhere).
On a sidenote (I know it doesn't really belong here): I'd like an option to adjust the mouse sensitivity, especially downwards.
I hope this helps at fixing the issues.
