Alpha 7 is out! This time we’ve added artificial limbs and prosthetics, jungle biome, new trade system, organ harvesting and trading, and a whole ‘stuff and stats’ system where certain things can be made of other things.
If you own the game, you should get an update email from us. You can also get Alpha 7 by re-downloading from the link you used before (it is a permanent link and always has the newest version). Anyone still having trouble should start at this thread.
Compatibility[edit]
Also note that this build will not load old savegames, so keep your old install separate if you want to finish an Alpha 6 colony.

Alpha 7B & Alpha 7C[edit]
UPDATE: Alpha7b had a typo that made plague 10x too common in temperate biomes.
You can fix your game by re-downloading and reinstalling it, or by replacing Mods/Core/Defs/BiomeDefs/BiomesBase.xml with this corrected version of the file.
—–
I’m uploading a silent non-essential hotfixed version of Alpha7.
Alpha7b has reduced disease frequency, so diseases will appear less often.
To update, you can re-download from your old link.
Alternatively, you can just go into your game folder and look in Mods/Core/Defs/BiomeDefs/BiomesBase.xml, search for every instance of <chancePerDay>, and cut all the values in half. There are about 12 entries.
