Good day, Lords and Ladies! New update has just found its way to the Public Beta and it's waiting for you to try it out! This one focuses on fixing some of the most important issues you've reported; to name a few, the problem with time freezing is now mitigated and many problems with resource demand and villagers not producing when they are meant to have been fixed. If you wish to participate in the Beta testing, all you have to do to access the Beta branch is right-click on the game in your Steam library, select Properties -> Betas and choose the openbeta in the Beta Participation dropdown. After you confirm the dialogue, let the game update and you are ready to play!
