Patch EA007 - New Market Crates

[h3]New Market Crates[/h3]

As some of you may know, Forgotten Seas was made by a mom. Today we celebrate games by women-led studios. Tell your friends to get the game today at a discounted price!

[h3]Fixes[/h3]

Fixed an issue where the finished map was not properly dropping if the Cartography Table was full.
Cartography Table creates a finished map when all fragments are combined in proper fashion. In some cases, if you had more than one fragment #2 piece in the cartography table, the finished map was not forming. This has been fixed, and the finished map now properly drops with sparkles within 10 seconds of combining map fragments! If the table is not full, you may find the finished map inside the table's inventory as before.

Fixed an issue in the Journal where pressing Next arrows in Ship section would highlight the Crafting tab.

[h3]Other Changes[/h3]
Reduced crafting time for Stone and Copper Keys.
More optimization related changes, with minimal impact to gameplay.

Crafting Update - Craft from nearby chests!

[h3]Extended Inventory for Crafting[/h3]
You can now craft items using ingredients stored in nearby storage chests when using a workbench or the player crafting menu (C keybind).

This feature only affects workbenches and player crafting menu, but not the tiered processing units such as drying racks, campfires, smokers, etc. Tiered processing units will continue to function (as they were previously) from their own respective storages.

During the crafting process, the crafting system will first check for ingredients in the player inventory, then the storage chests. If ingredients are stored in different chests, the crafting system will progressively check for ingredients in each nearby chest and take what is needed, prioritizing the player’s inventory first.

Note that if similar crafting ingredients are spread out in multiple chests, it will take from a random nearby chest

For players who prefer a classic crafting system, "crafting from nearby chest" feature can be turned on and off using the F9 key (Experimental and Subject to change)

[h3]Shared Multiplayer Crafting from Storage [/h3]

Client and server share nearby storages for crafting. In multiplayer mode, a client can craft from the server’s storage chests and vice versa.

[h3]Other Changes[/h3]

Removed Winter Event items including Snow Forts, red satchels, and gift box visuals from Common Treasure Cache. Christmas Trees and Presents currently rezzed will still be seen, but the Building Hammer can no longer place them in the world.
Some visual optimizations to fog and lighting has been done.
