Sleipnir

Have you tried the beta build? I submitted a fix there for this specific issue.

Ok. Send me the save file and I'll take a look!

Please send me the save file if this happens.

In the next update, I've changed it so training dummies are:
-Very difficult to destroy.
-Quick to build.
-Quick to deconstruct.
This should fix the issue of builders always having to use resources and time to keep the barracks stocked with training dummies. Warriors/Archers/Mages will still lose energy training there and will stop training when depleted which is the main trade off to get the xp.

Thanks! :)

Agreed about making professions like Leatherworker more viable/important. The current state is just a product of me not having added all the items/blueprints to the game yet. The upcoming version will have a lot more things like this to round out the progression a bit better.

I'm adding some to the next update. :)

Haha Yes! Finally someone noticed. :)

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:
