[u][b]Conversations and Fixes[/b][/u] - This update makes the game a bit more chatty. Villagers will now make random comments about their situation (will say if they're hungry, if the day is nice, etc), and also start dynamic conversations with other villagers. They'll talk back and forth a bit before saying their goodbyes and going back about their business. Over time the depth of these conversations will continue to grow and reflect each villager's personality, and impact their relationships with other villagers. There have also been a tremendous amount of fixes made. I took a lot of time going from the beginning of a game to the end to see what needed to be fixed, tweaked, etc. The last few playthroughs seemed to go pretty well, but of course something can always pop up. For a list of all changes, see below: [b]Additions:[/b] [list] [*]Added ability to use "R" to dump the contents of a basket of blueberries. [*]Added carpenter AI to build the hunter lodge and carpenter shop. This wasn't the case already since the villagers will help with building both of those, and the completion of the carpenter shop allowed the leader to assign a town carpenter. Now a carpenter can be assigned before the shop is built. [*]Added a stamina requirement for digging up the well. [*]Added AI cooked squirrel organization to the barkeep. [*]Added a life bar to the left panel. This will drain as the villager ages, and when exhausted means death. [*]Added villager commentary. Every now and then the villagers will comment on their situation. Either letting you know that they're hungry, or that they think it's a nice day, etc. Over time I'll continue to add a lot more to this. [*]Added a new chat bubble option that's more compact and block like as the default. [*]Added more to the random villager commentary (they say about 7 times as many phrases now). [*]Added more dialog. Villagers will now express their confusion if you say something they don't understand. Previously they just stood there and waited for you to say something else. [*]Added holding down left control to show villager names. [*]Added dialog between two npcs. Two villagers can now engage in a random back and forth conversation with each other. [*]Added random events where villagers will talk to each other. [*]Added more content to the AI conversations. [/list] [b]Fixes:[/b] [list] [*]Fixed a bug with using strange characters in your Steam name. [*]Fixed text chat bubble sizing. [*]Fixed the location of shift-hover tooltips.
