Hotfix #2

Attention Citizens!

A second patch is now live! This one focuses on changes to structures during enemy attacks and improvements to NPCs.

[h2]Patch Notes[/h2]

Changes

Removed the X/Y count from the employee section of the building interior menu to avoid confusion between employed and indoors citizens.
Structures are now immune to piercing damage and will not be attacked with muskets or by tuskars.
Fortifications (castle walls, arches, etc.) are now immune to all damage and will not be attacked by any NPC.

Balancing

Reduced the salary cost for soldiers by half.

Fixes

Fixed demolishing and rebuilding a building that has an employed NPC causing an extra commoner to spawn.
Fixed the Alehouse not consuming inputs.
Fixed the building interior menu not refreshing correctly when its input/output values change.
Fixed NPCs rotating weirdly when staggered and stunned.
Fixed NPCs not being knocked back correctly when staggered or stunned while they’re attacking.
Fixed the work range being displayed for buildings whose employees don't gather resources from the world when selected in map mode.
Fixed tree foliage rendering artifacts when viewed in map mode.

Attention Citizens!

Various bug fixes and improvements

Here are the full patch notes.

[h2]Patch Notes[/h2]

Changes

Allows crops to be placed at the Mountain elevation (previously only Lowland was allowed)
Multiplayer Monarch Charged Jump Event change from 2d sound to 3d sound
Increases atlas and sample size on various fonts to improve legibility and fix occasional blurry text rendering
Removed a gap in the terrain on Foothills and made hills accessible from more directions

Balancing

Cutting & Piercing attacks now deal 50% damage to Structures/Fortified (instead of 0%, so enemies can destroy player settlements)
Outlaw Thug armor reduced
Increased ore deposits per map
Happy citizens now lose stress as quickly as unhappy citizens gain it (previously happy citizens used to lose stress at half the speed)

Fixes

Fixed various gamepad controls not checking for deadzones, which should help with gamepad stick drift issues in general, and specifically in menus

Fixed farmers (hired by pantries) extracting fertilizer from bushes but never picking it up
Fixed snow terrain showing grass VFX
Fixed ice terrain showing dirt VFX
Fixed selected buildings' displayed ranges being wrong in map mode
