Patch Notes — Version 0.8.059–0.8.061 (Beta)
Major Changes
Battlefield Visibility: All squads inside an active Battlefield are now always visible.
Battlefield Proximity: After a battle starts, the area around the Battlefield where units are counted as participating gradually shrinks. (This is not the Battlefield zone itself)
Minor Changes
General:
Hunter's traps are now checked every 90 days, and have a chance to yield based on the strength of the Teeming Affinity.
Armament Delivery adjusted to require 15 total population (5 housed families) and a storehouse to trigger delivery.
Refined how pathfinding emergency mode works (Emergency triggers when a character is in a spot they can't get out from, for instance they build a fence around themselves).
Battlefield placement will attempt to avoid overlapping Settlements.
Fishing Hut’s default Reserve is now relative to Rich or Normal deposit.
AI:
Fixed being able to raise squads with less than five soldiers.
Balance
General:
Starting amount of a Shoal of Fish deposit is now 80% (was 66%) ensuring its above the default Reserve of the Fishing Hut on game start.
UI & Text
Styling & Quality of Life
Tooltips and references to Honey/Apiary now use a consistent icon.
Wax is now displayed under Crafting Materials on the resource bar.
Text:
Added "Deposits" to the Wiki with information about all natural resources.
A person who works a Small Holding is now considered a Smallholder as their job title.
