Hi everyone!
A small update with some balance changes, as well as a slightly bigger change: mirrored circle connections. This makes it so that each player will have the same path to a circle, instead of one player having to take a detour while the other can swoop in because a bridge spawned on their side.

[h3]Changes[/h3]
Connections between circles are now symmetrical (mirrored). This makes PvP matches more fair, especially on smaller maps.

Balance[/h3]
[list]
[*] Science society: reduced starting golem workers from 2 to 1
[*] Gold-fish amount in Fishy lake and healing lake changed. It now always has 1 gold fish and 50% to have 2. It used to have 0-4.
[*] Gold-fish total gold amount reduced from 250 to 200. Gold per trip reduced from 50 to 30. Gold fish became too effective when combined with fishing and gold harvesting upgrades.
[*] Swifty the Scavenger lord: removed +8 wood rubble in new circles. Starts with a ballista.
[*] Mounted assassin price reduced from 100 wood, 180 food => 100 wood, 170 food
[*] Wyona the watery queen: removed +1 gold fish in each circle
[*] Fish numbers in Fishy Lake and Healing Lake biomes changed from 4-12 to 7-9 to make mermaid leaders less luck-based.
[*] Bear XP requirement increased from 600 to 700 (Forces of Nature DLC)
[*] AI controlled bears no-longer multiply in Imperial Conflict game mode (Forces of Nature DLC)

UI[/h3]
[list]
[*] Fixed: rightlicking a resource in another circle did nothing when the selected worker was idle
[*] allow re-using the same hotkey in different hotkey categories. For example use the same hotkey for Worker and Bank.
[*] Fixed: Leader recruitlist texts looked faded in multiplayer
[*] Fixed: non-DLC leaders have Forces of Natures things visible before building a storehouse
[*] DLC-only things are green in leader's recruit-list
[/list]
