If you found the game a bit hard to grasp, maybe it's all you need to give it another go!
Notable Gameplay Changes
Raid updated: raids should be a lot more rewarding and more customizable now.
Population Growth updated: added more granular data for feudum's growth and also updated the underlying calculations so things like Food Rations can now affect the result more severely.
Auto-trade logic updated: according to the discord poll. It'll now allow players to buy and sell stockpiles beyond the set threshold - the threshold will now just act as a trigger but will be ignored as a safety check.
Players can now also start a game with the auto-trade set to any specific default state for them.
UX/UI Changes
Players can now set their renewal preferences on each unit through the Manage Unit command. Lances can be forced to extended service or be auto-disbanded at the end of their service time, and squads can set to be released when their contracts end or be re-hired.
Manage Units: you can now also move a unit by long pressing it's portrait and you can allow certain actions to happen to every unit in the source company by holding the [Shift] key while issuing an order (like move to the other company or to disband).
Reorganized and extended tooltips for Units in a Company, so you can see the relevant informationat a glance.
The expiration warning on units now immediately states the amount of time left [b]and [/b] the set renewal preference.
Removed color-coding by value from the morale indicator, so health and morale are now harder to mix up.
Raid losses are now summed on the targeted feudum (from same player).
Raiding powers can now be adjusted in a more relaxed range in the rulebook
Creating additional feudums is no longer a fixed price command but can scale up with the amount of feudums a player already has.
Merging tiles into a region now has incremental price based on the new size of the target region.
Updated pathfinding so companies might be less dumb to walk into garrisons
Added some missing tooltips on the Map scene, including the one that tells players where the game menu is :)
Added a warning to the Unsubscribe action on the Worlds screen to warn people they won't be able to rejoin the same game once they have given up.
