Please add some realm buff or something to travel weariness within that realm. Like idk from 10% up to 50/60% reduced travel weariness within that realm, that and make paving decay IF NOT being used, that would be awesome for the rank and file noob, big factions will have enough will to zap around anyway.
https://strawpoll.com/xh2d3zr2 if you give a fuck about mining vote on this. Make mining great again! Bring back old supports.

I love the idea and don't see any abuse ...
If you're afraid of village extension abuses just increase the authority drain...

I guess the village coverage would be a difference, but, yeah...
It is a massive, critical and key difference that changes the entire function.

Which won't be a problem for big factions who want to abuse these systems.

Do note also that paving greatly reduces the cost of traveling along roads.
Paving decays.

Not if it's on a claim?

If this gets implemented, and I In no way think that it should, make sure that it only functions for roads in YOUR village, not others...
jorb: I don't want *your* money. You are rude and boring. Go away.
Sevenless: We already know real life has some pretty shitty game mechanics, it's why we're here instead.
Avu: The end is near it has finally come to pass: I agree with Lunarius...
Shubla: There are also other reasons to play this game than to maximize your stat gain.

Basically once I hit 100% it didn't go down. I mean I use teleport to heart quite liberally but it''s still the most logical solution because it makes half the trips free. The only way I'd change how I do things if I didn't have to go out for days or if I planned from some very long trip. But really travel weariness suckz.
I'm making a random guess here, but... like it used to? Take a penalty to the relative stat (Will now, right?) and you can exceed 100% of your available travel distance. Even if moments before you were only at 70% TW, lost 30% of your stat, and now you are at 120%. Hearthing always consumes travel distance, but is always usable, too, which will push you past 100%.

Probably should have been in patch notes. It's a non-obvious change that nobody would have guessed given how long roads can get and a lot of effort to install and maintain paving. Unless you want to add in some Roman level tech about near permanent roads that can last hundreds of years.
Opinions expressed in this statement are the authors alone and in no way reflect on the game development values of the actual developers.

cost increase doesn't have to be linear you know...

Please track the actual list of tiles and each time the road is used give a chance to stomp some non-paved ones.
Or better do this, concept allows upgrading of existing road mechanic mid-world.

Seriously? You want me to extend my claim all the way from actual plot to the riverbank just to be able to get some drinkable water for digging and building fast?
And here I should apologize for my spelling... But I won't! Deal with it :P
