Update 53.5 - A few goodies

The last month or so has been a crazy time for me - been super busy. But my work on SAELIG ever stops, so here is a nice little patch.

• Fixed an issue where pickpocketing someone could cause them to freeze in place forever.

• Added text near player potrait to say the current player action.

• Caravans and Trade Ship will no longer buy goods they are selling.

• Family name at the top left of the UI now shows current player name as well as last name.

• Added a button to selected player to teleport them elsewhere if they get stuck.

• Fixed it so giving people something from pack no longer gives the entire stack.

• Tracked people tooltip now shows full names.

• Fixed some perpetual broken bone issues.

• Trade estimation tooltip tweak.

• Some UI fixes.

• Fixed some bugs related to punching a watchman.

• UI Tweaks.

• Added wergild back in which means if you murder someone and get caught, their family gets the fine money.

• People who you have gotten money from through begging, entertaining, and pickpocketing are now remembered for a while so you cannot endlessly spam the same person.

• Some pickpocket balance tweaks.

• Homestead warmth now more reliable.

• Following when mounted now works.

• Tweaked some of the thought process for children so some of the bored ones may be inclined to become a beggar rather than a pickpocket.

• Tweaked some of the conditions around people becoming beggars, minstrels, and thieves.

• If a crime isn’t intercepted on the spot by a watchman but dealt with in another way, it will now be counted as “intercepted” in the crime report.

• Changed the “Report Crime” action label to “Alert Watchmen”.

• Children now far more inclined to pickpocket instead of breaking in or waylaying.

• Kids can now be declared outlaws if they run away from a crime scene - though note that a child outlaw doesn’t quite have the same penalty as an adult outlaw. It just means that watchmen will confront them on sight and demand retribution.

• Fixed it so you can select the bottom notification icon when you are inside a building and have the UI minimised.

• When people have broken bones, they will be way more likely to rest it off than before.

• Fixed a bug where if you were sent to the pit, you’d teleport home first and then walk to the pit.

• Relationship history has been added to character info that shows the last 20 or so relationship changes with any selected character.

• Character fitness now works based on distance travelled, rather than just starting movement.

• Vanity name is now shown in building info.

• When typing numbers in trade route fields, it should no longer trigger hotkeys.

• Map icons will no longer be activated when you press space.

• New button added near the player potrait to open notification settings.

• Fixed skill milestone popup getting stuck if it showed while saving the game.

• A potential fix to the hotkeys menu not vanishing when you release the control key on some computers.

• Fixed a navigation bug with a specific plot.

• Fixed potential navigation issue with Herbalist Hut shed.

• Sheds now have larger inventories.

• Production tooltip fixes.

• Larger timespan between military and merchant camps.

• Player can now do healthcare at Herbalist while working at night.

• Travelling Monk fix.

• Weapon damage tweaks.

• Recipe info tweaks.

• Skills are now sorted showing General first, and then alphabetical after that.

• There is now a min of 2 Vikings per raid.

• Fixed a bug when selling building for missed taxes.

• The player as an employee can now abandon a cart if they are working and forced to haul the cart after work hours.

• Camera movement calculation tweaks.

• Fixed a supervise bug where if you walked away after supervising your next task may be reset within a few seconds.

• Bunkhouse tweaks - it is now displayed if you’re relaxing in a bunkhouse instead of sleeping due to lack of beds. Relaxing is way slower at increasing energy.

• Fixed a major automation bug where offloading wasn’t working in some cases.

• Fixed it so you cannot buy a wilderness plot without any money.

• Improvements to the system that does random number generation and calculates chances for things happening.

• When a building is destroyed, the AI will no longer rebuild the same building 100% of the time - instead they’ll evaluate what kind of building to build.

• Fixed some UI Bugs.

• Sick people will now do less things that require travel.

• Entertainment, pickpocket, and begging options enabled when inside buildings.

• Supervision notifications changed to a basic notification rather than a popup.

• Relationship menu - you can now filter by profession.

• Fixed a possible save error that could corrupt saves.

• Fixed character creator FPS.

• Major viking crash fixed.

• Shader preloading optimisations.

• You can now accuse people of crimes after the fact and a watchman will investigate and decide if they will prosecute or not.

• Fixed an issue where horses could teleport into the doorway of longhouses.

• Fixed some pit issues.

• Fixed flour mill bugs when loading a game.

• Some nav tweaks.

• Fixed a bug that resulted in all horses being named Steve.

I didn't get around to adding a few things I really wanted to add - but hopefully soon!

Thank you for all the support, reports, and suggestions!
