v0.23.1 - Spoiling and resilience tweaks, optimizations and more

While we have started work on the next update, I wanted to get this smaller one out based on some of the feedback you have given from the previous one.

I'll keep it short. It's smaller tweaks to food spoiling, resilience as well as other smaller changes, bug fixes and translation updates.

With the overwhelming feedback for the upcoming graphics overhaul, here's another teaser for you :D



I will of course keep an eye out for any other issues and feedback! :)

Until the next update, happy holidays and happy New Year! 🎉
