[GS] Will current PYDT saves break when new patch is released?

As per title.

A bunch of friends have an ongoing Play Your Damn Turn (https://www.playyourdamnturn.com) game which they've been playing for months.

When Gathering Storm releases, along with a patch, does anyone know whether this is likely to impact their current game?

GS is an expansion, so the new game mechanics will be specific to GS only. Unless they simultaneously release a patch that tweaks the base game or R&F, other than minor bug fixes, saves should be unaffected. Only thing to watch for is if you are using any mods. If the modder updates a mod to work with GS, it may break it for saves of base or R&F games.

I think they've already confirmed they'll be releasing a patch at the same time.
Past experience tells me this usually introduces weird behaviour into current saves but it's been a while since I've tested this.

Sweden livestream confirmed that coastal pillaging yields will increase in a patch made available to Rise and Fall players. I'm not sure if it also includes Civilization VI players.

So the question remains.
