Update notes: 29-JUN-24
New Features and Improvements
Multi pickup
Added an ability to pick up multiple small items of the same type in a small range. This should cut time spent picking up small items.
Controller navigation improvements
Legibility improvements for lists, with a better indicator of which element is selected. Navigation between buttons is also more intuitive. Nav issues in Workstation Menu Task Creation page fixed.
Save game info
The game saving operation now displays a notification message while saving is in progress. Quitting to main menu and to desktop both now wait for the saving operation to be finished.
FPS cap when booting
Game is booting with an fps limit to avoid useless workload on the GPU
Adjusted navigation links for Longhouse doors
The doors of the Long House and its modules should be a little more lenient when snapping the door navigation links. We've had issues with villagers getting stuck outside the Long House and freezing to death because the doors were not accessible. This should fix those issues, or make them less likely to occur.
Added lootable Villager remains
Villager remains can now be found in the world where a villager died and can also be dismantled
Dog getting attacked now notifies players
Added notification when the dog is attacked. Stray dogs are auto-assigned to a nearby kennel when their guard target is destroyed. Kennel workers now fetch food for guard dogs assigned to their kennel. Dogs are now half as hungry.
