The primary changes in this patch include villagers no longer needing to travel to fulfil their needs, the addition of the watchtower military building, and numerous improvements to the garrison system.
Player: Villagers now consume food / clothing / mead on the spot without having to walk to a building Player: Military units now consume food / clothing / mead (more mouths to feed than before) Player: Added watchtower (garrison for Arbalists) Player: Gatehouses can now be placed right up against palisade (making replacing destroyed gatehouses easier) Player: Destroying garrison buildings now moves units to the rally points to prevent them floating down slowly Player: Hunters can now be garrisoned in gatehouses and watchtowers Player: Bears, boars, spiders and wolves can now attack palisades Player: Bow ranges are now consistent with crossbow ranges
Bug Fixes
Fix: Sending one already garrisoned unit to a second gatehouse didn’t free up the original garrison slot Fix: Palisades didn’t cut into the navmesh on sloped terrains such as beaches Fix: Palisades were too high when restoring saved games Fix: Cotton fields weren’t showing the cotton plants (visual glitch) Fix: Gatehouse door state wasn’t updating the navmesh correctly when loading saved games
Known Issues
With consumption now happening without travel, worker productivity has increased. This will lead to faster stockpiling of resources. In the next patch we’ll probably reduce this. Towers need to ignore obstructions and behave like the gatehouse does. Selecting units garrisoned in the watchtower and attacking an enemy can result in some units falling out of the tower. The tower and gatehouse character colliders need disabling during construction otherwise units that walk over them can end up rising into the air.
Developer Comments
Only save games and workshop items saved with 0.5.2.x versions are valid. Level designers should open their maps, save, and then republish to Steam Workshop for them to appear in the load dialog.

Player: Added palisade gatehouse Player: Added support for garrison-type buildings; used by the palisade gatehouse
Bug Fixes
Fix: Pink objects on some buildings Fix: Engineer turrets are placeable again
Known Issues
Please see the patch notes for 0.5.2.0 With gatehouses, connecting one to existing palisade doesn’t really work With gatehouses, sending one already garrisoned unit to a second gatehouse doesn’t free up the garrison slot. To resolve this, use the exit all context button after selecting the gatehouse.

Only save games and workshop items saved with 0.5.2.x versions are valid. Level designers should open their maps, save, and then republish to Steam Workshop for them to appear in the load dialog.
The palisade gates use a newly implemented garrison system so that arbalists (crossbowmen) can stand guard on top. This system will be used in watch towers in a future patch. We’ll be experimenting further with the palisade gatehouse to address the listed known issues.

Developer Comments
0.5.2.0 invalidates older save games. Level designers should open their maps, save and then republish to steam with this version for them to show up in the load custom game dialog. Subsequent patch versions of 0.5.2.x will not require this step. Only when the version increases to 0.5.3.0 will it be required again.
The addition of conversion recipes to the Blacksmith and Woodcutter’s Hut are exploratory at this stage and will feed into the crafting recipe overhaul.
For level designers, when using LootCreateRecipe, the base recipe must use items named ‘Base Recipe X’ where X is the item type such as sword, axe, cloth armor, plate. If you wish the recipe to be unlocked once a piece of research is completed, add ‘Research Weaponsmithing’ or similar to the cost field. For examples, please see the lore books in Lilith’s office in the Desecrated Cathedral.

Fix: The mysterious case of disappearing items on heroes is hopefully now fixed Fix: Blizzard weather effect is now working as intended Fix: Nara’s charm ability was causing charmed heroes to level up a lot Fix: Prevented most damage being applied during cutscenes (CharacterDamage and Damage nodes ignore this) Fix: Prevented loot sparkles from being cleaned up after 10 minutes if the loot contains a quest item Fix: Some save games in experimental 0.5.0.0 (any map that created custom loot items) wouldn’t load properly Fix: Willow’s thorns visualization no longer rotates with the affected target Fix: Prevented tactical pause from being toggled when conversation dialog is visible Fix: Grublin invasion mobs were being created as Undead faction Fix: Selecting a character, opening village inventory or a character sheet now cancels any building placement Fix: Most trinkets were set to not stack Fix: Sandbox: Stinking Swamp: Too many wolves could get spawned
Map Changes

We’ve done some content optimization in this patch, so if you cannot find certain kit pieces, they have probably been moved to the Core Tiles kit.
Please note the new Workbench Reference Guide is work in progress; we’re aware of the occasional long class name issue.

In this patch only save games created with the current version will now show in the load saved game menu option. We have taken this step to prevent bug reports being submitted where an error is caused by incompatible save game versions. If you prefer a period of no disruption, please exit the experimental build and revert back to the main Steam version, or turn off automatic updates in your Steam Library.
* Note that by default depth of field is never enabled. The player must actively enable it under graphics settings, so in most cases it won’t ever show.
** WorkPointTriggerCustom node does not work on characters, only innate objects such as props. This is intended to make things like books/weapons etc. interactable.
