Dear Pioneers,
it's time for a new [b]Quality-of-Life-Update[/b]! We're excited to release some highly requested improvements today!
Unit Overview and Demoting Units
You asked for it, we delivered: It's now possible t[b]o transform any unit type back to a Carrier[/b]. Just remember that the units need to be in your territory. All dropped equipment can be picked up and used again. The new [b]Unit Overview[/b] comes in really handy. You'll find it on the right hand side of the construction menu. Not only does it look good, you can also use it to find specific unit types and cycle through their workspaces by clicking on the magnifier icon. Neat!

You planned out the perfect production settings meticulously and don't want to do it all over again? Well, now it's possible to simply [b]copy settings to on or all buildings[/b] of the same type! You can cycle through buildings of the same type while in copy mode (by TAB key or clicking the new arrow buttons in the building selection menu). All work orders including their settings, the main priority setting and enabled state will be copied.

Balancing Adjustments
Next up are a lot of balancing adjustments for trade and gift offers, building placement and units. We rebalanced the trade offers of Pagonian villages on generated maps. Also, we've worked on a lot of [b]combat balancing[/b]! Look into the detailed patch notes down below for more information.
Other Improvements
Misplaced a building or just changed your mind? It's never been easier to [b]demolish a building[/b]. With a brand-new hotkey you can demolish a building or cancel it's construction in no time!
The next one is for everyone who loves to decorate their villages: The [b]decorations category[/b] now has a search bar! Also while placing decorations you can now cycle the available variants via CTRL + Mouse Wheel or by clicking the arrow buttons in the new preview interface on the right.

Highlights
Unit Overview and demoting units: Transform any unit type back to standard Carrier
Copy building settings: copy settings to one or all buildings of the same type
A lot of balancing adjustments for trade and gift offers, building placement and units
Gameplay
Unit Overview and demoting units
A new interface shows you all unit types you currently have
You can demote any kind of unit back to a standard Carrier
Units have to be in your territory to be demoted
Equipment will be dropped where they stand and can be re-used
The interface can also be used to find specific unit types and cycle through their workplaces
Scav Bulwarks are now destroyed if all units in its vicinity are killed, even if some assigned units are still alive but far away
[/*][*]Thieves and Bandits will cancel looting attempts and return home when scared off by Warlocks
[/*][*]Warning flag colors for some states of residential buildings have been corrected
[/*][*]The Mint now starts without production orders, all recipes are set to “amount 0” by default
[/*][/olist]This ensures that the Mint does not accidently consume important copper, silver or gold ingots. The Mint will only produce after the player ordered it to do so.
A notification will be sent to the player as soon as the Mint is ready for work for the first time, if it still has no orders at this point in time
User Interface
New functionality: Copy building settings
You can copy settings of the current building to all other buildings of this type
You can also copy settings of the current building and paste the settings to specific building of this type. Additional highlights and tooltips assist you while doing so.
You can cycle through buildings of the same type while in copy mode (by TAB key or clicking the new arrow buttons in the building selection menu)
All work orders including their settings, the main priority setting and enabled state will be copied
This can be used for gathering buildings, production buildings, training buildings and territory buildings
All options have hotkeys associated, defaults are:
Copy: CTRL+C
Paste: CTRL+V
Paste to all: CTRL+SHIFT+V
Additional highlights and tooltips guide you through the process
[/*][*]The locations of any campaign, objective and arcane artifact are now represented by an icon in the mini-map if it is lying on the ground in an explored area. The icon can be clicked to focus on the artifact location
[/*][*]Improved production/recruitment interface: Switching the mode to “target amount”/”minimum stock” now uses the current existing amount as the default value. Switching the mode back to “amount” always uses “0” as default value
[/*][*]Woodcutter: Changed the work mode buttons of the woodcutter to three separate buttons of which one is always active (preserve forest, cut all trees, remove forest). Before, the three modes were reflected by 2 buttons only, which caused some confusion
[/*][*]The objective UI now has more contextual jump-to actions when clicking the objective
[/*][*]Stone and Copper Chunks now also have markers on the mini-map
[/*][*]In-game pause menu now shows more info about the current map you are playing

Added “Map Goal” and “Landing party” for generated maps
Added “Author” information and buttons for “feedback”, “like” and “report” for mod maps
Improvements for demolishing buildings
[/*][/olist]Added a hotkey to demolish a building or cancel it’s construction (default key “-”)
The confirmation dialog can be confirmed by pressing the hotkey again, ESC cancels it
The confirmation dialog is skipped for newly placed construction sites which did not start yet
The confirmation dialog can now be disabled in the gameplay options
Improvements for placing decorations
[/*][/olist]The decorations category now has a search bar
While placing decorations you can now cycle the available variants via CTRL + Mouse Wheel or by clicking the arrow buttons in the preview interface on the right
Randomizing the variation is now optional and can be disabled in the preview interface on the right (default is on)
If the randomize setting is enabled it will now only choose a random variation once when selecting the decoration and again after placing a decoration
The Info box showing which resources are in range while placing buildings has been improved
[/*][/olist]Resources in range are now displayed directly at the mouse pointer for better visibility
All resources are additionally still displayed at the bottom right with an improved visualization
All resources now display icons for better readability
Improved meal history readability, the latest entries are now on the left and finished ones are greyed out
[/*][*]After selecting the Treasure Hunter in the construction menu, treasure areas are highlighted
[/*][*]Baneroots now display their summoning progress in the tooltip
[/*][*]Amber Baneroots now state that they are immune to any attacks
[/*][*]Underground mines meal tooltip now mentions that softwood beams are required for the ore production process
[/*][*]Unit tooltips now show if the unit type does not require a tool and training building
[/*][*]Units that are not scared by Spectres now indicate this in their traits list
[/*][*]Key bindings bound to mouse now display the actual mouse icon instead of text
[/*][*]Tooltips of some control buttons of selected buildings have been improved (Territory buildings, Monument of Wisdom, Light Spire, Woodcutter’s Hut)
[/*][*]If you start a new game, the interface will remember the previous selections
[/*][*]Added missing highlight for selected game mode in the start new game section
[/*][*]Map information layout in the “escape menu” has been improved
[/*][*]On campaign map 7, a location highlight for an important objective was added
[/*][*]Improved farm field UI
[/*][/olist]You can see where each crop grows best in the tooltip while placing a farm field
New color-coding depending on how well a plant will grow on a given sediment type
While hovering over a sediment type you immediately get information how well the selected crop grows, shown directly next to the cursor
Improved mouse picking for farm fields
Campaign
Third campaign map now hides Wheat recipe in farm field selection
Improved visibility of treasure spots of the fourth campaign map to ensure that players can find the important artifacts
Added new dialogue to explain remote delivery with Trading post on fourth campaign map
Added description for objectives to build and recruit Trade Post and Trade Carrier on fourth campaign map
Fifth campaign map now kills all minions when their boss is defeated
Sixth campaign map now allows Steel and Diamond Staff production from the beginning
Warlocks cannot scare the Malthorn Boss anymore
Balancing
Some additional building types can now be placed on rocky areas (stone plateau, scree and flat cliff areas) beside quarries and mines: Geologist’s Hut, Smelting Works, Furnace, Storage, Warehouse, Construction Camp, Military Camp and Traders’ Camp.
The trade and gift offers of Pagonian villages on generated maps have been rebalanced
The internal trade balancing values, which define the ratio at which the Pagonian villages offer goods and gifts, have been rebalanced to better reflect the rarity and production effort of the commodities
The probabilities of trade and gift offers for different commodities have been rebalanced to create a better variety of offers
The probabilities of objectives to deliver specific commodities have been rebalanced to create a better variety of requests on generated maps
[/*][*]Relics can now be offered in trade and gift offers by Pagonian villages in on generated maps
[/*][*]A few commodities which were added with the “Major economy update” (Stone Picks, Stones, Fishing Rods) can now appear in trade offers, gift offers and objectives on generated maps too.
[/*][*]Guard unit type’s combat values have been rebalanced
[/*][/olist]Veteran Guards get their combat power increased from 12 to 20
Elite Guards get their combat power increased from 30 to 40
This ensures that guards are the significantly more cost-effective than soldiers to defend your village, to compensate for their inability to go on the offensive.
All Blade Dancer unit types attack bonuses against Scavs are now 100%
[/*][/olist]Standard Blade Dancers get their attack bonus against Scavs increased from 50% to 100%
This ensures that their effectiveness against Scavs is significantly better than “Advanced Soldiers” in comparison
Elite Blade Dancers get their attack bonus against Scavs reduced from 150% to 100%
[/*][/olist]This ensures they are not too overpowered against Scavs and their power increase compared to the Swift Blade Dancers is more reasonable
We rebalanced objective types on generated maps
[/*][/olist]Supply POI objectives are 30% more likely than before, in order to reflect the availability of the new delivery process by trade carriers and the additional commodity types which have been added since Early Access start
On the other hand the objectives to impress with global values (e.g. total land explored or total wealth) are now 30% less likely than before, since they showed up too often
Reduced the amount required by objectives for some commodity and unit types in medium and higher difficulty levels
[/*][*]The difficulty to obtain a hidden achievement about logistics has been reduced
[/*][/olist]
