Hail and well met,

Version 0.7.0.17 is up!

This last week I also added some fun things. Here are the patch notes for this version:
-Fixed a bug where settlers could get stuck idling.
-Added the Apple Tree - Grows in Taiga and drops Apples in the summer.
-Added Apples.
-Added Coconuts - dropped by palm trees in the summer.
-Added the Laborer profession - starts off with a small bonus to all skills. Whereas other professions gain ranks in their favored skills each time they level up, the Laborer only gains ranks across the board every two levels (based on the Laborer perks).
-Changed the hermit mode to use Laborer as the settler profession.
-Added some new fonts - change them from the graphics settings.
-Improved the performance of decaying items each hour.
-Added the Wicker Basket container - made with plant fiber.
-Added the Clay Pot container - made with dirt clods.
-Added the Bronze, Steel, Iron, and Rutile chest containers.
-Added the Void Crystal item.
-Added the Void Shard item.
-Added a layer of Sable at the very bottom of the world. 
-Fixed a bug where the slot 2 saves were getting overwritten in a very rare edge case.
-Back up saves named '0_backup, 1_backup, 2_backup' are now created when saving over a slot. This will backup the previous save.

Next steps:
As you might have noticed, there are some void items in the update. Although these aren't particularly useful now, they will be used for two big changes coming soon. The first is a currency for the world. This currency is the Void Shard. This currency will replace the barter system currently in place. Void Shards are left behind when Void Crystals are used in magic processes. With the Void Mage profession (another future feature), you will be able to turn several Shards into Crystals but mostly you'd find them underground. This leads into the second future feature of Void Mages and the Ancient race. As Ancients are strictly Void Mages, they will rely heavily on Void Crystals and Void Shards when going about their tasks. Adding in those items is my first step towards implementing that race and the Void Mage profession.

Oh, before a forget, I've add some new fonts (created by Eeve Somepx) to give you some more options outside my Odd Realm font. This isn't necessarily a solution for people not being able to read the current font, but it was something easy for me to add and if it helps out even one person to read the font, then yay. It's going to take me a lot of work to add a better HD font, so that's still a WIP.

Well, that's all for now! Hope you have a great rest of your week.

Cheers,
Waylon
