The Industry & Infrastructure Update for Kingdoms and Castles
Hello friends! The long-awaited Industry & Infrastructure Update for Kingdoms and Castles is finally here! After the last major update "War & Diplomacy" focused on combat and interaction with AI, this time the focus is back on city building and economy. Get ready for many new features that were requested by you, the players. Let's take a look at the most important changes together.
New Buildings Overview
The update brings a variety of new buildings to the game, designed to make your cities even more efficient and vibrant. Here are the most important additions:
- Large Treasure Room: A 2x1 structure that can hold more gold than two small treasure rooms.
- Large Orchard: Another 2x1 structure that can hold more fruit than two small fruit storages.
- Large Iron Mine: A 3x3 structure that is placed entirely over an iron deposit. Produces more iron than 3 small iron mines, but requires more space and workers.
- Large Quarry: Also a 3x3 structure, placed over a stone deposit. Produces more stone than 3 small quarries, but requires tools to operate.
- Large Charcoal Maker: A 2x2 building that produces more charcoal than four small charcoal makers, but requires more workers.
- Large Reservoir: A 2x2 reservoir with a much larger radius of effect compared to the small reservoir.
- Large Tavern: A 2x2 tavern, ideal for densely populated cities to make the city center more lively and meet the needs of residents for good drinks.
- Chapel: A small church (1x2) that fits into smaller spaces where the normal 2x3 church is too large.
Improvements and Bug Fixes
In addition to the new buildings, the development team has also made some improvements and bug fixes. Here are the most important points:
- Increased some text sizes on the Steam Deck.
- Increased the damage of the Greek fire tower.
- Fixed a rare issue where Viking ships could get stuck on custom maps with a certain arrangement.
- Fixed an issue where the AI could use suboptimal work priorities.
- Fixed an issue where the large quarry/iron mine could be placed over trees.
- Fixed an issue with hazard allowances when conquering an AI island.
