What's new in 0.7.3

- Zoom in and out feature (a lot of people have been asking for it)! Use mouse wheel or + and – keys to zoom in and out.

- You can now see building radius while placing buildings.

- Your watchmen, guard towers and soldiers will no longer attack ghosts while the monsters are neutral.

What's new in 0.7.2

- Castle! This is the first mega-building which requires a lot of resources (coins, stone, logs and iron) and is being constructed over time (at least a year if you have enough workers and resources).




- New buildings: wooden gatehouse and wooden guard tower. Wooden gatehouse has less HP and requires logs instead of stone and wooden guard tower does 50% less damage than the old one and also does require logs instead of stone.




- New NPC building: Abandoned mine with ghosts. Once you\'ve defeated the ghosts you get a random mine (coal, iron or gold one).




- Goblins now have their own road, fence and flag.




- Sawmill now has an animated saw.



- Various typos and inaccuracies have been fixed.

- The rare bug with non-returning armies has been fixed.

- Most of the windows can now be closed with Esc key.

What's new in 0.7.0

- Achievements!

If Steam client is running achievements are being saved both to Steam and locally. Otherwise achievements are saved only locally (and won't disappear when the game is updated). There are 50 achievements. I tried to make some of them more interesting, so they can be used as some kind of mission goals.

You need to start a new game to be able to get achievements. Also achievement don’t work with ’Free build’ option turned on.




- New houses!

Each housing level now has several variations, plus some of the houses look much better that before.




- Quite a few fixes and tweaks (thanks to everyone for the reports!), including:

- Steam overlay should now work properly.

- Shift + click on 'Shutdown' button shuts all buildings of the same type down. Same works for starting buildings up.

- Neutral and hostile structures removed from tutorial (except graveyard) just in case.

- Also I added German symbols for the upcoming German localization. My sister (who’s basically German) is helping me to translate the game.

- Spanish localization is in progress. Big thanks to Joaquín from simcitycoon.com (Check his website there’s info on Hearthlands and other cool games)!

- Savegames from 0.6.5 should work with 0.7.0.
