What's new?
Mechanics: Clicking ground near an enemy automatically issues attack move for a better feel
Mechanics: Improved building fire code to reduce instances of villagers running needlessly far
Mechanics: Removed military from contributing towards monster challenge level
Mechanics: Camera pitch no longer changes as camera zooms in/out
Mechanics: Rabbits are now treated the same as deer and can be hunted
Mechanics: Added combat stance toggle to character portrait wheel
> defensive stance will only enter combat if they are attacked (new default for villagers)
> aggressive stance will enter combat when any monster is nearby (default for military & heroes)
> shortcut key is G
> players might like to set Willow to defensive stance to stop her initiating combat
Improvement: Clicking the supply wagon will now provide an option for opening the village inventory
Performance: We’ve updated the engine and gained a performance boost to particles

Bug Fixes
Fix: Starting a map and then exiting to the main menu could leave progress stuck at 40%
Fix: Prevented a work scheduler from assigning construction point work when there were building fires
Fix: Font unreadable in workbench search boxes
Fix: Quixl’s Eviscerate ability was doing normal weapon damage instead of X% of weapon damage (e.g. 200%)
Balancing
Balancing: Added mind stat bonus to Willow’s Mass Heal ability
Balancing: Bears health doubled
Balancing: Rate of loot drops from mobs has been significantly reduced - less is more
Level Designers

Workbench: Added BuildingInProximity node for checking if mobs should respawn when buildings are close
Workbench: Added Travel node for automating the use of a portal (e.g. a signpost)
Known Issues
Crime needs more visual indications of what has been stolen.
Tooltip text can run vertically
Memory footprint gets too big - we’re working on it this week
Loot drops are now too rare, and most party loot seems to be for Ser Gregory
Some of the floor texture scales may look wrong
Developer Comments
Only save games and workshop items saved with 0.5.3.x versions are now valid. Level designers should open their maps, save, and then republish to Steam Workshop for them to appear in the load dialog.
In this patch, monsters now respawn in the campaign Shirebrook map, and the sandbox Haven map. We'll be adding respawn to the other maps in subsequent patches.
