Minor bug fixes and improvement in the game's weather system. Have fun out there in the wilderness!

Rolling out some minor weather fixes: • Rain is actually visible now — when the forecast says Rain, you'll see raindrops falling instead of just a greyer sky. • No more multi-day cold snaps or heat waves. Extreme weather is now a single-day event, while rainy and foggy spells can still linger for a few days. • Cold snaps and heat waves are also slightly rarer overall, so clear days feel clear again.

Fixing bugs with the weather system in the Carlston Wilderness: * Rebuilt the weather system. Rain, fog, storms, heat waves, and cold snaps now occur at their intended frequencies — previously, sleeping in a shelter at dusk silently skipped the daily weather roll, so it was almost always clear. The weather vane now shows the real upcoming 7-day forecast. Existing saves are compatible. Have fun out there!

Bug fixes based on player feedback: • Crafting a Compass & Lodestone now shows a helpful tip explaining how it works — place the lodestone anywhere, and the compass always points back to it. • Diamond Arrows selected for a New Game+ journey now return as a full stack of 10 instead of a single arrow. • The Compass and Lodestone now count as a single item in the New Game+ selection screen, since they only work together. Thanks for playing, and keep the feedback coming!

Minor bug fixes and performance optimizations.

Minor bug fixes and improvements.

Bug fixes for iOS touch controls: - Fixed Explorer's Journal page navigation buttons (close, previous, next) not responding to taps - Fixed trail signpost confirmation screen requiring keyboard input — now has tappable choice buttons - Added full touch controls (joystick, swipe-to-look) to the house scene after completing the game - Added tap-to-close buttons and touch hints to Journey Inventory, New Game Plus, and house pause menu UIs - Made New Game Plus item selection and confirmation dialogs fully tappable

Various bug fixes and gameplay improvements for your enjoyment in the wilderness! Bug Fixes: - Touch buttons dead after loading save — Loading a saved game with a different world seed caused duplicate TouchControls instances, making BAG/CRAFT/MENU buttons unresponsive. Fixed by cleaning up existing instances before creating new ones, and unpausing the tree before scene reload. - Touch menu buttons not opening after load — Follow-up fix for the same save-load flow on iOS. - Explorer's Journal stuck on iPad — No way to turn pages or dismiss the journal on touch screens. Added swipe gestures, tap-friendly arrow buttons, and an iOS-specific hint. - Eat button disappearing — Eat button stayed hidden after closing menus even with food in inventory. Fixed by restoring visibility on menu close. - Jump button stuck after release — Replaced unreliable TouchScreenButton.action with explicit pressed/released signal handlers on all touch buttons. - PLACE button grayed out during placement — Added flag to prevent equipment callback from disabling the button. - Controller frozen on game start — TouchControls.menu_open persisted as true across scene reloads, blocking input. Now resets in player _ready(). - Circle button triggering bow shot — HUD buttons could receive controller focus; set focus_mode = FOCUS_NONE on all. - Crafting menu inaccessible on iOS controller — DualSense touchpad not exposed on iOS; added R3 as alternate mapping. - Touch controls gone after controller disconnect — Added joy_connection_changed signal handler to restore touch mode. - Controller hints overlapping time display — Moved to dedicated bottom-center panel. Gameplay Changes: - Hunger rebalance — Hunger now depletes fully in half a game-day (need to eat ~2x/day). Scales with day length so short days aren't impossible. - Crouch button removed on iOS — Simplified touch UI, saved per-frame processing. - Inventory sorts alphabetically on mobile (equipment list). - Compact equipped text on mobile controller — Shows only item name + essential info. Performance: - UI blocking check — Replaced 6x group queries per physics frame with single static flag check. - Grappling hook detection — Throttled from every frame to 10x/sec. - Ambient animal movement — Reduced terrain height samples from 5 to 1, throttled obstacle raycasts.
