Hey settlers 👋
We are hard at work and surprise you today with the biggest update of this quarter. 👀
In this patch we have taken care of a better visualization of the water simulation and the manipulation of temperature. We've also made some changes to the UI thanks to your feedback! 💚
Water Levels:
Water level changes are now visually represented. Now you can see how deserts get the water they have been waiting for from the mountains, or how pastures use up all the water.
Temperature Manipulation:
You can now build a wind catcher tower to cool down an area.

You can now build a finn torch to heat up an area.
UI Improvements:
We added faction attractiveness and immigration details to the community center.
We reworked the market place UI to make it easier to use, explain more what is going on, and provide a better overview.

Villager Pathfinding Improvements:
Villagers can now automatically improve their commute time by switching homes if their location is not locked when you have a community centre. Implemented an iterative linear balanced assignment problem solver.
