Savegames

The savegame files for Unknown Horizons are located here:

• Windows: %HomePath%\Documents\My Games\unknown-horizons\save
• Linux/Mac: ~/.unknown-horizons/save

On Mac, by default you will not be able to see this directory as it is hidden (due to the '.' before unknown-horizons).

• If you need to change this you can use defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles TRUE followed by killall Finder so that the changes take effect. You should then be able to find the folder and files in your Finder view.
• To reverse the changes, use defaults write com.apple.Finder AppleShowAllFiles FALSE again, followed by killall Finder.

My inhabitants won't advance beyond tier 4

Tier 4 is the current maximum, the next tier isn't implemented yet. You can contribute graphics (or get others to contribute) and we will see it very soon ;-) [More information here!] (Artists)

Some buildings have no proper graphics

Our graphic artists did not find time to create those yet. The buildings still work though! You can help by contributing graphics (or get others to contribute) and we will see it very soon ;-) [More information here!] (Artists)
