Developer notes
Hey Adventurers!
This will be the last weekly update for a while. We still have more tweaks in mind, but they will have to be tied to more substantial updates. This week's update brings a myriad of quality of life changes for you, aimed at making the game smoother and highlighting the most relevant information.
Att,
GHGP.
New building information windows
The visuals of the info windows that open when you hover over the building buttons in the build menu have all been updated with a new design more in line with the quality level of the latest UI elements we've implemented.
Multiple buildings had their descriptions updated (and those that were without description had new ones added) and now at the bottom of the window you can see icons that indicate what resources the building brings or consumes.
Streamlining the Production Buildings
The production bonus system for your producer buildings has been modified to have a more obvious and direct impact; now instead of the bonus production increasing the amount of points the building produced for its production bar, the target value itself is now reduced. The end effect is still the same; the building produces it’s resources faster. But now the effect is much clearer and easier to see and plan around.
We realized that 10 priority levels was a bit overkill on our part, so we reduced it to a simpler High, Normal, or Low priority levels. We'll keep an eye out in case in the future if we need to increase the granulation back.
Minor Adjustments
- The farm now displays its extension area when choose where to place it
- The Farm menu no longer closes when building an extension
- The icon for Gold has been updated
- The colors of some elements in the Quest Menu have been updated to increase clarity
- The value of the production estimate per turn in the resource bar has been limited to 2 decimal places
- 1 Tile-sized buildings now feature a small rotation to bring more visual variety
