Beta 1.58

Note: For previous patch notes, see the Playtest version's announcements

Changed unlock structure for Natural Resource crops to make them more unique across Biomes. Starter biome (plains) contains Grain, Cotton, Apples, which are unlocked based on town level progression. But other crops are only found initially in other biomes: River has Sugar, Tomato, and Fish. Forest has Berries, Herbs, and Pears. Mountain has Carrots, Snow has Potatoes, Desert has Cactus Fruit and Jungle still has Dragonfruit. Each of these Biomes has Town Level quests that unlock their unique crops; when reached, the Cultivation research for that crop is unlocked for all Towns. This usually requires the crop as input, so it will need to be imported via the Trading menu. Once the cultivation research is completed within a town, then they can harvest and grow those crops on their own.
Unique resources get a productivity bonus within their Biome
New cultivation research is auto-completed on legacy towns if they already had cultivation skill for that item
Many recipes that require biome-specific crops will remain locked until that crop's Cultivation research is completed within that Town
Got rid of separate Cotton and Herb research. Those now follow the crop unlocking structure above.

Fixed bug: Quests for Harvesting Skill levels to unlock Harvesting Speed Upgrades were inadvertently linking with Cultivation Skill instead

Harvesting Speed upgrades show the icon for the harvested item, not the resource, to prevent confusion with cultivation / prospecting upgrades
