Working our way through the most requested features, we have finally added the ability to destroy completed buildings! There were various bits and pieces involved for this, like making sure to remove remnant garden objects villagers previously had behind houses, getting them out of buildings before destroying them, and many more small things. In addition, there are various ways that villagers can react whenever you destroy a building - don’t displease them too much!
This now means that you are able to upgrade your town over time by destroying old buildings and replacing them with bigger and better ones. As mentioned in the discussions, we will of course also be working on a real upgrade feature :)
🪳 Bug fixes
- We also spent a fair bit of time on fixing various issues relating to villagers sometimes just stopping moving. You may have noticed that especially if you played the game for a while, more and more villagers would sometimes just hang around doing nothing. Hopefully this should be fixed in the vast majority of cases now - let us know if you still see anyone lazying around!
- Fixed immigration being limited to 25 villagers
- Fixed sometimes showing wrong interaction indicators and interactions when two objects would overlap
- Made stone colours more consistent with the general colour scheme
- Added a special dirt effect when digging with the shovel
- Improved the quality of some UI textures
