A few things have happened since we last spoke, which have delayed things a little, so I'm very sorry for the longer time between updates - I had surgery which knocked me a back a bit, and then my cat of 12 years died :(
Oh and my wife is super pregnant with a human child at the moment, so there's a lot going on there, too.

You can now drop items from your pockets or pack. Dropping items will create a little sack on the ground which the AI can pickup.
Added a new 'Management' system which allows you to purchase the 'Management' upgrade for a businesses and then assign a manager - this works with both automation and manual control. Managers do not work, but rather they provide a continuous supervision buff to increase the production rate of all items being made at that builder. The higher their supervise skill, the higher the buff they provide.
I have also created a translation system that I have started adding into the back end of the game, you won't see any changes yet - but there is magic happening behind the scenes. I've also got a new knowledge base system that I am building that will embed directly into the game, rather than relying on the Wiki. I'm also now ready to dedicate more time to the new map and the Danegeld system.
I hope this update has one or two things that you can enjoy! Again, sorry for the delay.
Atorcoppe.
