Lots in this beta patch, though I need to make it clear this is another foundational bug fix / optimization patch, not bringing in a lot of new content or systems.
As we finish up dealing with these little bugs and kinks in all the new systems we've implemented I've also been hard at work on an entirely new building system and a standalone tool specifically for building design. We'll be doing a deep dive into that in the near future. It's hard, but it's always best not to get ahead of ourselves as we'll make everything clear and available as soon as it's all ready.
We've had some pretty deep discussions in Discord lately regarding the future of the game as well. Everyone is welcome to drop their two cents as we make the tough decisions moving forward with Solace Crafting!
Lot's to come!
Happy adventuring.
