A new load animation shortens the waiting time.
The torchlight now represents the real status of the building. (enabled/disabled) - (Geologist torch bug)
As a workaround for the jumpy mouse cursor we have disabled border scrolling on Macs per default. scrolling für Mac standartmäßig deaktiviert.
Also the second DLC called Fire Mountains has been released:
Valhalla Hills second DLC is now available: Fire Mountains. Stony ground and ash isn’t the most comfortable environment for Vikings, cultivation is near impossible there. However, you can sacrifice… things on the altars to gain helpful magic powers.
Speaking of environment, not only does heat and lava threaten to smolder your Vikings beards, but also Lava Trolls and Fire Scorpions are after your tribe!
