Events?

[Captain Geriatric]

In early access there were random events happening like kidnappers, traders, immigrants - right now im just getting only bandits after bandits is that normal?

Edit:

Also it would be nice that when an event happens that the game pauses or at least an option to toggle it... right now it feels like the game devolved instead of evolving since early access...

I'm curious about this, too. There was a long pause in my interaction with the game between early access and now. While there has obviously been a lot of smoothed edges and updates, I'm not having much any engagement with the world beyond bandits and trying to spread out into new settlements. It just feels kind of... barren in that regard? Like my people are the only people with any sort of meaningful agency in the whole game world. Even that seems like it's putting it generously.

I've also heard that in early access there was a variety of enemies and more happening underground.

I'm a tad disappointed by the fact that the 1.0 release just seems like a feature cut release. There's still a lot of bugs and things in the game that don't serve a purpose.

I hope the developer keeps working on it though. It has a lot of potential.

I do plan on having events again, but I couldn't get them back in time for 1.0.

So how do you get new people then? Use to be immigration. I always did vanguard start so I only got 1 family that can have kids. And I assume they won't do incest. Bandits the only option?
