Another patch this week!
- Added ability to upgrade barns
- Cursor tool size works when placing resources in creative mode
- Earth Shrine consumes 50% as much mana power and regenerates twice as fast
- Fixed tooltip getting stuck if hovering over the 'linked resources' item icons
- Crops and minerals will be replanted or enter depleted state when final item harvested by a worker, as long as in range of any matching natural production building.
- Buildings that require terrain (Farm, Forester, Mine) can no longer be positioned onto non-terrain using Move tool
- Well now can only be placed on terrain
- Fixed House upgrade speed not providing consumption speed bonus
- Fixed Packaged items being accepted into various building inventory slots, then being unusuable
- Switched method of assigning outlines, to avoid instability / crashes
- A building that automatically creates a mana pipe overlay node (like Transmitter, Receiver) will remove & refund any existing logistic overlays on same tile instead of overlapping
- When placing resources in admin mode, action preview panel will show the name & icon of the placed object ('Tree') instead of the resource you harvest from it ('Wood')
- Fixed games starting in creative / admin mode never loading structure costs if creative mode switched off
- Fixed Create Game menu showing stale parameters when displaying it a second time
- Rail carts only show their directional arrow when highlighted or selected
- Building alerts no longer interfere with pipe placement
Starting tomorrow I'll be traveling for a few days, when I come back I'll be starting on the big house / market rebalance process. It'll probably take place over a number of individual patches so I can introduce a number of planned features that I think will need to be in place for the balance changes to work well (like group-select-command behavior).
I think that'll be the start of some very meaningful systems changes that will make progression through the game feel much more meaningful & rewarding.
Thanks as always for playing, and a friendly reminder if you are enjoying the game that a review on Steam helps support its continued development.
Cheers!
Erik
