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

  • 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).

AI:

  • Fixed being able to raise squads with less than five soldiers.
