v0.9.6
- In order to alleviate numerous reported issues involving Windows OneDrive, we have made the decision to migrate the save directory to C:\Users\USERNAME\Saved Games\Farthest Frontier. Upon launching the game for the first time in v0.9.6, you will be prompted that a one-time data migration will be performed. If your system does not have sufficient space on that drive, you will receive a warning and the process will exit. Note: the Saved Games directory can be relocated to any drive on your PC by right-clicking it and selecting Properties.
- Advanced Custom Game options are now available so you can cater your experience just the way you want it with options such as free build mode, separate raider and hostile animal settings, and more!

- Your settlement’s advancements and combat victories (and defeats) are now commemorated with proper fanfare.
- Losing all villagers now triggers a defeat condition.
- Many elements of the game have been enhanced with new audio. Villagers now have spoken VO when selected and commanded.

- Building windows have been optimized to remove performance spikes when selecting buildings.
- Fixed an issue where military units could reacquire a target when ordered to retreat.
