New

• Send convoys home: The settlement window now has a "Head home" button that sends a convoy in that settlement straight back to your home settlement.
• Faster unloading: If all of a convoy's cargo fits into your storage, it is unloaded in one go without a confirmation dialog.
• Rest warning: The range indicator glows red when a convoy will soon need to rest.

Balancing

• Gentler start: The roads are a little safer early in your merchant career. The danger from bandits grows over time.
• Bandit camps after attacks: Even when you fend off an attack, bandits who escape may set up a new camp nearby.
• In the demo, bandit camps stay at level 1.

Fixes

• Fixed a bandit camp that could disappear too early and block the tutorial.
• Fixed building placement ignoring clicks after you left a settlement while a construction animation was still playing.
• Controller / Steam Deck:
  • The input for restarting your savegame can now be reached with a controller.
  • Text inputs release focus as soon as you navigate on with the controller.
  • Disabled buttons are now handled correctly with controller input in many menus.

Technical

• Convoys load faster on the map.
• Improved server stability and scaling when many players are online at the same time.
