I am quite confused as to why this happened. I have an outpost which I've had for a couple days now. Haven't changed any settings. Now....now there is a dead tree just laying right in the middle of my gate. It doesn't get in the way or anything, but I have no idea why it's there all of the sudden. Anyone have any idea as to why this spawned?

That's weird, the foliage system is supposed to clean out junk within your outpost borders, you should probably shoot a bug report over to lo-fi there are explicit instructions on the Steam forums about what they need.

Would I have outpost borders before I build a wall? Because that tree wasn't there when I built the wall.

The outpost borders are placed when you place your first building, whatever that may be, they are then re-assessed when you build additional structures.  So yes, the borders definitely existed before you placed the walls, as suggested above an import may fix the problem, alternately something a simple as a save/load might also do the trick.  Give both a try and if that doesn't work definitely bug report to Lo-fi, every piece of information helps them fix bugs.

For those who haven't heard, Kenshi 2 has been announced: https://steamcommunity.com/app/233860/discussions/5/1846946102843828452/

Along with further updates for Kenshi in the future. In the reddit thread with the announcement, the dev estimated it's about 2 years away, with a hopefully short early access/beta period before a full release.

They will...eventually or so I hope at least.

To be fair, they have kept their word about keeping the support/bugfixing in post release Kenshi so far.

On the other hand I feel it was too early to reveal the "sequel". It's only natural that they would jump on a new project, but they basically just announced that a better* kenshi is in the works. I am afraid this will undercut Kenshi's sales.

*Better in it's technical aspects.

I mean, from the sound of it you'll have at least two years before you'll have to worry about playing the sequel :P

Mmmmm. I feel like there's a lot more they could do with Kenshi 1. It's a good game but at the end of the day, it still feels like a glorified sandbox with some very lite story. If Kenshi 2 is just a new map, lore, different races, different looking gear and a different tech tree...

I dunno. It feels like Kenshi 1 lacks something pulling the whole game together beyond "wander around, build stuff, recruit guys, fight." If that's not addressed in the sequel I'm not sure I see a ton of reason to getting it, as I like the world but I'm not in love with it.

Although I suppose a more technically competent version of Kenshi might be worth a look.

It's going to be on the same engine, so probably not a lot different technically than Kenshi 1. It might mean engine improvements for Kenshi 1 though as they improve it during development of 2.

Kenshi was never intended to be anything more than what it is. It wasn't ever supposed to have a big scripted campaign or overarching story. It has a lot of interesting lore and factions and several big things you can accomplish (like wiping out the United Cities and having the cities taken over by the anti-slave groups) but at its core it's just a big sandbox.

The only thing I would like to see is a more open modding system. Right now the modding capability is pretty bare bones, which will prevent people from really running with it like they did in games like Mount & Blade. But just because some games support mods so well doesn't mean we can  expect others to, so I can't really blame the Kenshi devs if they don't.

Well, I remember when it was supposed to be possible to join the army for early equipment and training and things like that. Kenshi's scope got cut down quite a bit.

Likewise, there were other luxury features like mounts that weren't added, which the devs have suggested they want to add into Kenshi 2 and perhaps backport to Kenshi 1.
