V0.11.21 - Custom fields, quick-trades, and emotions (opens in new tab)
🌾 Custom fields This update brings a major change to how fields are placed. Unlike structures such as taverns or workshops, areas for farming can vary in size and can be customised to your liking! This was always the intention from the beginning of the game. Now finally, there's a special area-drawing interface after you choose the location of a new field,…
