Major Update 1.4 - The King’s New Clothes
Greetings, Dearest Goblins!🍻
Get ready to experience a royal upgrade! This update brings an exciting new dynamic to your goblin village with the introduction of the Weaver and Tailor buildings. Now, your weavers will craft the finest cloth while the tailors turn it into stylish clothes fit for any goblin. We've also added a new resource, Armor, to bolster your war units' defense. Plus, with building placement restrictions removed, you can now design your village layout more freely than ever before. Enjoy the revamped visuals of the Trade Hall courtyard and watch your goblin civilization flourish in new ways!
But that's not all! We have fine-tuned several aspects of gameplay for a smoother experience. Warm Clothes now better protect against the cold, and sickness mechanics have been consolidated for a more streamlined approach. Expect the Traveling Merchant every spring and enjoy the improved UI with new confirmation prompts and a handy toggle for tutorials. Notable bug fixes include smoother goblin mining animations and better FPS performance. Dive into "The King's New Clothes" update and discover all the delightful changes waiting for you in Goblins of Elderstone!

Imprisoned and trekking goblins now both block a player from reassigning those goblins, they have also been moved to the bottom of the 'All Goblins' filter in the Roster.
Changed rosters to automatically filter goblins by their relevant stat for a job by default.
Food and Sleep decreases slower over time.
Storage capacity has been increased.
Corpses can now rise regardless of season and will do so after a fixed time irrelevant of winter.

➥ Bug Fixes:

Refactored all materials used by goblins to reduce draw calls and increase FPS.
Human Warbands will no longer drop Leather in their loot table.
Fixed hero portraits being blocked by their War/Trade/Faith UI.

Due to some ongoing issues with burrows we have decided to temporarily remove burrows for now.

Dev Letter - What's Next?
Greetings, Dearest Goblins!🍻
We're excited to share with you all what's in the works for Goblins of Elderstone and update you on our roadmap. We have so much planned. We recently released our first major feature update for the year, called Rule the Chaos. It's been one of the most impactful updates so far and features some of the most requested changes. There's been a major rework to how Satisfaction and Rioting function, shifting away from rioting to what we call Chaos Actions.
We've also rebalanced various conditions and how they affect the goblins' moods. We've simplified these goblin moods by removing happiness, respect, laziness, and aggression. Now, the main satisfaction of a goblin is focus. Understanding each of your goblins will be more straightforward, and their conditions will clearly show how they affect this satisfaction. To match this design update, we've revamped the goblin stat's UI with a more streamlined and user-friendly look, along with improved and informative built-in tooltips.
There has also been an extensive pass done on gameplay balancing, affecting almost every aspect of the game. You can check out the full details on our patch notes. A fun new creature has been added to the traveling merchant; be sure to keep an eye out for them in the game.
We are already busy working on our next major feature update, called Divine Tech. This will introduce a new approach to gameplay, with improvements to the role of the gods and the building progression tree. Following that, we will be working on an update called Treks of Elderstone, which will introduce a new track management system, and improvements to our goblin population usage mechanics. We'd also like to give a huge shout-out to all our players and fans on Discord.
Your excitement, feedback, and banter are always greatly appreciated. Thank you all so very much for your continued support.
If you're not already part of our Discord community, please come join us. As always, enjoy your time in Elderstone, and we look forward to sharing more with you real soon.

Important Note
We have swapped the Treks of Elderstone with the One and Only God update on our road map. We also changed the name to be Divine Tech.
This is because the Treks of Elderstone will take a longer time to develop, and you are going to encounter the God's building sooner. This decision was made after consideration of the gameplay mechanics and our player's needs and feedback.
