The second batch of improvements is here to continue what we've started in the June Update!

Along with countless overhauls and tweaks to management, deliveries, book reading, and other parts of the game, we also added practice fights.

Structures

• Added ability to copy structure settings between buildings like priorities or storage filters when a structure supports all orders of the same type.

• Fixed minable rocks getting destroyed by placing structures on top or near them.

• Fixed Weaver Loom and similar structures disappearing for clients in co-op.

Settlement Storage

• Improved worker item delivery logic when canceling outdated deliveries in the settlement.

• Split Equipment storage filters into Armors, Weapons, Tools, Gear, and Ammo to allow more granular setup.

• Fixed incorrect tooltip text on some of the bandit camp loot.

Bellwright Patch #15 May 31

Hope you're enjoying Forestry Update so far! As you might've guessed, we didn't waste any time and already started working on the next one, but we'll keep releasing patches in-between with important fixes and improvements.

The biggest change in this patch is solving memory-related crashes that would happen for some players without any obvious reasons after a few hours of playing. If that sounds familiar, please let us know if the patch helped.

Forestry, Staging Ground & Tier 3 Improvements OUT NOW May 27

After a long month of improvements and bug fixes, Forestry Update - the first of many content updates for Bellwright is finally here!

Forestry introduces a building where you can grow saplings and use them to replant nearby forests, allowing your settlements to have a sustainable source of wood instead of having to create new outposts deeper and deeper into Karvenia.

Staging Ground is another exciting feature - a gathering place to prepare your companions before journeying further. Companions assigned to it will automatically stock up on food, equipment, and arrows from nearby storages, significantly improving resource management.

Tier 3 buildings received plenty of tweaks and improvements as well. Notably, an overhaul for Windmill and Bakery, with the goal of creating a simple and consistent source of food for all of your workers.

Bakery will now be able to feed every one of your villagers with higher bread output, while Windmill and Thresher will produce significantly more flour and grains. On the other hand, new dishes added to the Inn provide useful status effects for players and soldiers like increased experience gain and higher combat attributes.

Many remaining gameplay issues have also been addressed. For example, many Tier 2 weapons, armors, and some buildings like Drying Rack will no longer require villagers with professions to research them. It was a common complaint that equipment needed to fight the brigands was only unlockable after liberation.

We considered different options like making brigands easier to kill, but ultimately decided that removing profession requirements from some of them would solve the issue without changing the rest of the gameplay.

Additionally, food items that don’t regrow including meat and cooked dishes had their spoilage times increased as many of you have suggested, and Villagers will finally be able to navigate properly around Tier 3 buildings, use ramps and walk on wooden platforms without issues.
