Yeah, the SDK still hasn't been updated. I'm hoping they'll update everything next week when BMW comes out, but I'm not holding my breath too much.
Patch incoming

We will be releasing the SDK with BNW next week, no worries.
Great!
Will that include the BNW DLL source?Where would I send my save file? Could achievements be impacted by the new patch as well?
And now its there. I swear, it wasn't before. It was a fresh turn, worker had plenty of points available (all of them), there was an unconnected city nearby...

My game ran smoothly prior to the patch. I was unaware it was coming today, and, a few hours into a heavy session, the game crashed to desktop. Immediately, the Steam update window popped up, and I just assumed Steam needed the game closed to finish pushing out the update. No worries, autosave is your friend. Until I tried to start it back up again. I posted the following in the bug report forum, but figured I'd include it, seeing as people from Fireaxis are here, posting in this thread. This is a reply to a post detailing some issues with the cursor returning from its "load state" after loading has completed:

No mod support in multiplayer? <snip> hell, Firaxis, how hard can that be?

Seeing as the complexities of maintaining cohesive multiplayer with a release as fractured as this are apparently vast, one would assume adding mods to the picture would increase complexity exponentially.

I would avoid it until they get these issues sorted out. Not sure how widespread they are, but from what I've experienced it's been enough to prevent me from being able to play. Hence the fiddling around on forums.

Is it still buggy? I can't get past the poor, too busy Steam servers to find out for myself. Just as well, I guess. I leave this Sunday for a week long vacation and won't get to play BNW until I get back. Maybe everything(including the BNW bugs) will be fixed by then.

So this has been strange, I have gotten a chance to play a couple times today, I am playing with vanilla (no mods) + DLC civs.
Earlier the worker icon and several of the unit icons were updated when I loaded the game I had been playing pre-patch. I was playing in the modern era, and I did get the bug where the diplomacy screen froze and it caused me to crash. The turns were running super fast as well, and I went ahead and finished off that game, and played the first 80 turns or so of the next game.
So I loaded up my save a couple hours ago, and the new unit icons were gone. The turn times, while improved from a couple days ago, were not nearly as fast.
I didn't notice any other problems, so I blew through another 50 turns or so, going for a domination victory.
Then it happened.
The worker.. Stopped.. Working.. So I guess that bug is back, at least for me.
So that is frustrating. I don't know if they were able to change the game without actually doing another patch, or how that works really, but I would really like to play the game I saw 12 hours ago, the new icons were cool, the workers worked, and it was really fast. The game I was playing a couple hours ago, not so much. Most annoying though is having to give the same order to a worker every turn, it can get very tedious.
Anyways, here is the save, in case I'm crazy. If I load it up and hit next turn I immediately see the problem, with the worker trying to clear the forest and build a plantation to connect spices.

I was able to get around this by running Steam Service. Make sure Steam is closed and run:
Attempt to run the game again after it finishes.
Note: The path to your game files may vary slightly depending on where the game is installed.
