Greetings, Survivors! August has been a busy month for the Nested Lands development team, as we've focused on refining and polishing the systems we’ve built so far and fixing existing bugs. Here’s a quick rundown of what we’ve been up to: [list] [*] Updated the fog and lighting systems for a more immersive and atmospheric environment. [*] A new island is now part of the world, offering untouched areas to explore. [*] Continued development of the multiplayer system. [*] NPCs will now sleep in their beds when tired. [*] NPCs now have hygiene stats and can bathe to stay clean and healthy. [*] A new system allows NPCs to recover health over time and use bandages to heal. [*] Added new villager stats dialogs to manage them more efficiently. [*] Introduced the first iteration of the plague system, adding a new layer of challenge to village management. [*] Torches now provide warmth, similar to campfires, helping you survive in colder times. [*] You can now split items in the inventory, making resource management easier. [*] NPCs are now able to search for more resources, including water. [/list] Stay tuned as we continue to enhance the world of Nested Lands!
