Release Notes: Version 0.5.2571 (0.5.2572)

This is a dev update for the existing Warfare Public Release. It includes a number of bugfixes, UX refinements. At this time, we focused on some economy-related QoL upgrades, including a new feature, Automatic Trading, so feudums can now trade even in their player's absence, until these orders are cancelled or changed. This will hopefully make it much harder for a player to go into a resource shortage spiral while away from the game, even if they experience sudden resource fluctuations due to feudum upgrades or raiders.

It is a mandatory update.

Note: We have released a hotfix (0.5.2572) for 0.5.2571 that actually enables the Auto Trade button. Sorry for the inconvenience. The hotfix is otherwise identical to the 0.5.2571 version so refer to this release note about the features.
