After the 4th branching (not counting the source) logistics “runners” will suffer AP penalties (5th branch=10 ap, 6h = 40, 7th=90, 8th=160,etc..).


I'm sorry, but I have no idea what that means. I heard that this update was making changes to how Supply Bases work, which is why I did a quick search for that here. (I'll need to check out the rest of this when I have time.)

But "Supply Base" doesn't seem to be mentioned here at all, unless that's what a "runner" is supposed to mean. But I don't know what "branching" would have to do with that.

Sorry, but could someone explain? And do supply bases still work best when placed on or next to a truck station?

PS. Yeah, the update didn't work for me, either. Luckily, you provided a convenient link here so I could download it manually. So, no problem.

It's difficult to describe how much I really dislike the Slither launcher. [:@]

Same problem. There is no way to download 1.02.00 so what are we supposed to do?

The poor Store Page with the download links. It always has people claiming it does not exist:

The 1.02.00 installer is on your 'my page' in the Matrix store as a download.

You have to re-install from scratch using the updated release installer (1.02) from the product's page, and then apply the updates.

Did a fresh install of version 1.02, still no luck with the auto patcher. Still hangs after it says: Creating handle

Wonder or it has to do with me not having installed in the default directory and or drive. Still that should not be an issue anymore nowadays.

Applied the manual patch to 1.04, that went without problem.

Would at least like patch news / heads-up though. All the commercials are ok I guess (understand the need to sell stuff), but not important to the product I bought.

I have the same issue with "version too low", but the games is patched to the last v1.03beta. The download from the store page (v1.02) says "it takes 1 more hour", while speed is limited by the server... Can you give a information at what time the steam-keys will be available?! I had not any issues like this with steam in years.
