UPDATE 0.674 [WHERE CAN I FIND...?]

Welcome, lords and ladies of KINGDOMS!
Todays update adds to the game very useful feature, that will make a life of all travelers a bit easier. Now you can ask settlers to mark various location on your map - settlements of all kind, ruins, useful building like shops or manufactories - it's all there. The idea came to me when we were testing performance for 0.671 and I actually managed to play my game for a quite long time - usually because of often update timeline I usually see only some local areas I'm working for particular update - and that's the downside of such planning. And this time session was large and I could finally play and enjoy (!) Kingdoms. During the testing I clearly understood that game is desperately missing that and that here and here - when working on the game all days long you just don't see such things. So asking for locations is one of these features that I'm planning to add before we'll get back to the roadmap. It won't take long but definitely will make Kingdoms more enjoyable to play.

CHANGES
  • Now player can ask settler about following locations:

    • closest settlement;
    • closest farm;
    • closest bandits lair;
    • closest ruins;
    • closest iron bank;
    • closest shop;
    • closest blacksmith;
    • closest tavern;
    • closest stoneworkers place;
    • closest bakery;
    • closest woodworker's house;
    • notice board;
    • leader of your settlement;
  • The result depends on many factors, i.e. if settler didn't join the settlement, he cant tell about any shops or if shop wasn't build the answer also be negative etc.
FIXES
  • Fixed issue when the phrase "I cant teach you anything" could stuck in the dialog;
  • Fixed issue when AI's answer after player refuses to make a quest disappeared too quickly;
  • Fixed issue when AI's answer after player agrees to make a quest disappeared too quickly;
  • Fixed issue when the last phrase of AI after finishing the quest was invisible;
  • Fixed issue when marking settler as destination font color was unreadable sometimes, now it's white;
  • Fixed false AI animations and meshes clipping in watch-towers;


FULL LIST OF UPDATES

IMPORTANT
1) Please, feel free to use built-in bug reporter (F11) - it will help development a lot.
2) If something is broken make sure you have verified game files and started new world, remember -KINGDOMS is still EA, I try to make saves compatibility for every new version of the game, but can't guarantee it all the time.
3) The game is still in development, it's NOT finished product, updates are coming 3-4 times a week and that will inevitably cause various issues. Updates for game in development and for finished game - are two absolutely different things, remember that. Game mechanics come and gone, bugs are being fixed and new ones appear all the time. Its a normal thing for development process. If you want to experience KINGDOMS as it was initially designed - smooth, without bugs and full of working mechanics - please, wait till final version will be out.
4) You can support development of KINGDOMS on my official Patreon page.
Thanks for your support, see you very soon!
