This is a smaller patch full of a ton of small quality of life improvements, bug fixes and balance changes. This patch was originally going into Update 2, but I decided to break out some of the Update 2 content and move it to a smaller patch, so you can get some of the new improvements and changes early, without having to wait for Update 2 later. Enjoy! :)

Check out the change log for all the juicy bits, and if you find a bug, don't forget to report it on Discord or the Steam Forums. :)

Update 1b Change Log

Miscellaneous Changes

• Essence Collectors no longer deliver essence when out of range of the village.
  
• Drones now only harvest resources when there is not any already available within the corruption.
  
• Resources now decay twice as fast on corrupted tiles.
  
• Non-monster buildings are now slowly destroyed if they are caught in the corruption.
  
• Reduced the overall amount of resources generated when a very large or highly upgraded building is destroyed.
  
• Blood Slimes no longer can spawn boosted.
  
• Blood Slimes now die slowly when they're not on the corruption.
  
• All slimes now will no longer regain hit points unless they're inside the corruption.
  
• Blood Slimes no longer level alongside the corruption or current day.
  
• Rock now regrows at an extremely slow rate, roughly 1/20th the rate of trees.
  
• Rock now remains selected after harvesting.
  
• Added hot key support for object upgrade buttons, but the hot keys must be assigned manually.
  
• The hot key for dismantling buildings is now unassigned by default, but can still be assigned in settings. This is to prevent new players from accidentally triggering a dismantle action they can't reverse, but still allow experienced players to have a hot key if they desire.
  
• Nerfed the Flame Spell's damage by 50%
  

Bug Fixes

• If a blessed villager has twins or triplets, all of the children will be born nephilims.
  
• Fixed a few typos in the tool tips.

• Fixed a bug that could sometimes trigger invulnerable slimes.
