Welcome, lords and ladies of KINGDOMS!
0.535
I've decided to upload today's update a bit earlier than usual, because update contain very important fixes for critical and game-breaking bug. In particular - update fixes bugged roads calculation, caused after 0.533, no new game needed, fix will delete all roads (including bugged ones) and create fixed ones once again. Also, some issues with stuck City Hall workers were fixed + you can experience some issues with false notice boards positions when using saves made before 0.533, so now notice board can be destroyed. As usual, full list of updates follows. All these fixes weren't possible without your participation, so if you'll notice some bug in game. please be free to use built-in bug-reporter (f11), this will help Kingdoms a lot!

IMPORTANT
1) Please, feel free to use built-in bug reporter (F11) - it will help development a lot.
2) If something is broken make sure you have verified game files and started new world, remember -KINGDOMS is still EA, i try to make saves compatibility for every new version of the game, but can't guarantee it all the time.
3) The game is still in development, it's NOT finished product, updates are coming 3-4 times a week and that will inevitably cause various issues. Updates for game in development and for finished game - are two absolutely different things, remember that. Game mechanics come and gone, bugs are being fixed and new ones appear all the time. Its a normal thing for development process. If you want to experience KINGDOMS as it was initially designed - smooth, without bugs and full of working mechanics - please, wait till final version will be out.
Thanks for your support, see you very soon!
