• +additional minor fixes

• Booting up the main menu no longer applies the same language setting as the player’s system preferences. This should resolve the issue with the in-game language reverting to an undesired setting.
  
• Language: Chinese localization improved (added missing texts) and character set updated.
  
• FIX: Revoke edicts appeals not functioning as they should.
  
• FIX: Adjusted events parameters to fix some errors occurring with events that are confined to a specific era - eg. the “Hated Leader” event should now work as intended.
  
• FIX: When “load” is selected, the delete button should no longer be clickable.
  
• FIX: Adjusted parameters to fix issues with sales demand.
  
• CHANGED: Event system - changed settings in the dialog, which sometimes resulted in an error where choices in specific events (eg. “Cradle of Feminism”, which should be fixed) were not clickable.
  
• CHANGED: Deleted placeholder content from the newspaper to prevent appearance of English text in other language versions.

• FIX:While creating a district and cancelling it, before you proposed/finished it, you will now once again be able to create a new one and the buttons will not be greyed out anymore.
  
• FIX: Loading hanging / impossible to load games.
  
• FIX: Portraits for Shuyskys in eras 4 and 5.

• Fixed some inventions that were not using correct localized voiceover
  
• Two Missing texts in Chinese fixed ("threaten" and "plead")
  
• Fixed incorrect tooltip in district creation overview, while hovering over the commercial icon
  
• Fixed [city] tag visible in mayor’s election vote details view, which should now display the city name properly
  
• Fixed partner city unlocks, which were not displaying a tooltip in the progress cloud
  
• Camera rotation issue:
  - Fixed the rotating camera, caused by additional controllers plugged in

• Removed "add corner" tutorial step

• The camera is constantly rotating and will not stop
  - When this happens simply unplug all controllers and controllers' dongles attached to your machine.
  So make sure no (wireless) controllers are attached, such as e.g. the Steam Controller. Also unplug all dongles of your wireless controllers.
  (We know about this problem and are working on it!)
  
• The Game screen appears darker - (when using non-native fullscreen
  resolution.
  - Use the native resolution in fullscreen or windowed mode (to do so simply use the "Alt"-"Enter")
  
• I cannot save the game.
  Please be aware that, when the tutorial is enabled, during tutorial tasks you cannot save the game. So check if there are tutorial tasks and complete them in order to save the game properly.
  
• ”Foreign/Special characters are not allowed in city/district name”
  - Please use only the Latin Alphabet -set to name the city and districts.
  
• Generation of random names for the districts can pick up an already existing
  Name
  - Renaming districts doesn’t cost the player anything. So just renaming those
  Will help already.

• City Ruler, not City Builder: Urban Empire offers a unique combination of classic city building and political management gameplay. Take on the role of a mayor, be a political mastermind and prove your skills by prevailing against opposing parties and guiding your city through technological evolutions and ideological revolutions.
  
• Choose from 4 ruling families with 5 characters each, like the equal rights and social justice advocates the Kilgannons, or the Sant’Elias, who focus on scientific progress and the pursuit of knowledge.
  
• Create and manage city districts on a large scale and fulfil your citizens’ needs – such as happiness, safety, and public services.
  
• Introduce new ideas and technologies, like the electric tram, antibiotics or video games and use your power to convince the city council of your political agenda.
  
• Up to 1000 dynamic events represent the twists and turns of urban life: make and influence decisions on issues such as women’s rights, the hippie movement, and child labour.
