I'm not sure. I'm currently focused on adding content which will likely take up the next couple months (Tech tree, more things to build, more combat related items, etc). And I'm going to add the next playable race (Ardyn) before starting any overworld map features. I've also learned to stop promising dates because, as just one fella, I usually can't guarantee I'll hit them.

I will be adding some more water manipulation props later. Things like sluice gates and pumps which allow you to drain bodies of water or create new lakes, etc.

I really like the idea of stocking a body of water with fish! I haven't heard that one before. Very cool.
As for foraging, that's actually planned as one of the overworld map actions so we are in accord. :)

Happy to hear you like it and that you managed to butcher the animals. :)

Right now, going back to an old settlement isn't implemented. It is a planned feature.

Thanks my friend. :)

Ah, ya, I'm aware of this one. I'm gonna try to put a fix this week. Thanks for reporting!

Sometimes we have to avoid realism if it makes the game annoying to play. Placing scaffolding and ladders is a real pain as you build and, for me at least, doesn't add much to the experience by being more realistic.
A good analogy would be how much people hate manually planting and harvesting crops. I added the farm room to automate this and will be adding the arboretum to automate tree planting/logging. If people hated the process of planting/harvesting, I truly don't see them enjoying the experience of placing scaffolds.
Auto-placing scaffolds doesn't seem like a great option either. It would slow down building a lot as every level they'd have to go they would need to build the scaffolds first. And then what, they have to remove them after? Does the player? How would the AI even know when to remove it? Then it introduces the 'realism' question of, oh, my settlers can place scaffolds to move around when building, why don't they just do that all the time? Why do I need t... Read more

Huh. Could you send me your save file? I WOOD (haha I'm hilarious) like to take a look.

Here are the instructions if you're keen:

Thanks Cook! :)

Hmmmm, that is not great. Were they busy doing other tasks? Sometimes carrying doesn't get done because they are too busy doing more important work. Did you try disabling other skills so they'd only do carrying? Also, dumb question, but do you have resource zones placed that are empty for them to put logs into?

Hello! I don't have a lot of time to give you a full response this weekend as I'm a bit busy. I'll write up a better response tomorrow when I'm back to my office. :) Unless someone else responds first.. hehe

It's covered by the room window. There's a minimize button for that window which should show you the rest of the room bar. I know this isn't the best and I'm working on making that room window smaller.

The real problem with limiting the height to which an entity can climb is that it makes building tall structures very, very annoying and difficult. Imagine trying to build ladders just to make something simple that's more than one block high. That being said, we have a feature planned which lets you smooth blocks. The idea here is that you'd smooth your walls making them unclimbable. We'll see how well that works in practice. Could be it's super unclear/confusing and also annoying. Thoughts?

Haha agreed. I'm still working on it and making sure it's balanced. xD
