Any progress on this mining bug? Happens randomly when using default auto mining feature. Can't remove mining cursor and can't make any actions. Only thing that fixes it is relogging. Is it maybe a custom client issue?

Crash the client, bruv.
ah client wise crash, of course. less alarming.

Also there seems to be a bug where my head bobs quite a bit in walking speed. more noticable with a hat on, only crawl and walk speed seem to be effected.

Some nice little touches in the update ...
Added options to "Shoo" and "Pull" to animal leashes.
Added small token rewards in LP for completing tutorial quests.
You may now travel with carts, and pull them across shallows.
Made it so that you can build Sublime Porticos pretty much anywhere.
Natural Wonders in Villages now drain Village authority to the tune of 10k auth per day.

:)
Cupboards now take a small amount of damage whenever they are put down anywhere where they could not be built, i.e. anywhere that isn't inside a house.
Even though the main part of my base is underground I've never really liked the look of cupboards not being in houses, I have a couple on the very lower levels just for convenience but not enough for it to be an annoyance.

And, yay! Leeks ... :D ... thanks!

Just one more thing you need to do (fix) to move up into pole position. ;) ..... :lol:

I don't necessarily mind cupboards being a bit worse than other containers in such ways, so we'll wait and see how that pans out.
This leaving only Trespassing scents is some bullshit if you ask me. Literally damaging and destroying a cupboard should be Vandalism no matter how I look at it. Like this you can't allow people to trespass through underground claims without also giving them the right to destroy any cupboards you have on that claim.

It's doubly bullshit because your design specifically encourages the use of cupboards as the standard container for non-movable storage. It's fine if you want to move away from that, but as it is now this clashes completely with the original design intentions as cupboards are now an inferior solution for non-movable storage on a claim without some kind of wall around it. Or do you want us to turn every claim into a walled area? Last I checked you wanted to move away from having walls around freaking everything, but this change only means more stuff needs to be walled off.

(Do cupboards still scatter items when destroyed? Is it now a feasible strategy to carry a cupboard to the edge of claim, use this trick to destroy it, and steal some items scent-free this way?)

Maybe with these changes it was worth adding an alternative for this very COMMON usercase with cupboard?

people use cupboards outside not only because of they cost but also because of loading screen.
As for me it will be better remove loading screen when you move from object to object and then fix cupboard.
