Hello Artificer's!
This week has been a challenging week. Lets dive into the latest changes!
Update Active Orders
I've heard your requests for the ability to edit orders, especially auto-orders, and I'm excited to announce that this feature is now live! Previously, you had to delete and re-add orders to make changes, but with the new UI, you can easily edit them. While it's a small UI change, adding controller support proved to be more challenging than expected, but it's working smoothly now.
Mass Equip Highlights
Another popular request has been the ability to see at a glance if items are liked or hated directly from the Mage Item window. I've added background coloring to each item so you can quickly identify what you might want to upgrade. Please note that food and drink preferences are slightly delayed as they are based on the last consumed item. However, with auto-equipping the best food/drink, this shouldn't be an issue.
Quick Promotions
Focusing on promoting a mage to a specific skill can be tedious, so I've implemented a simple UI tweak to streamline the process. Special thanks to @Luneli for the feedback!
Other Fixes/Updates:
Mage Job window sorting now considers both skill and attribute when sorting jobs - Thanks @Seros Senric!
Fixed the experience display for Archmages - Thanks @tyege!
New Promotion icon will now show correctly when loading a game
Room description now displays the primary skill and attribute
Trap Priority tooltip updated to clarify it only affects Administration task priority
Fixed controller accessibility issue when the game is paused and the mouse is used
Next Up
I'm focusing on more quality of life improvements, with a priority on getting notifications to auto-clear. Some of these will be tricky, but I'm committed to enhancing your experience!
Thanks, as always, for all your feedback!

Artificer’s Tower is a cozy colony sim resource management game that features base-building, tower defense systems, and powerful enemies to defeat. You are tasked with building and defending an out-of-this-world tower that would make even Merlin himself proud! Keep your mages happy and your tower safe by building up your tower, gathering resources and crafting everything you might need. Build your tower however you like and unleash your inner architect wizard. It's like Hogwarts, but with more explosions (and less sorting hat drama).
Are you ready to let your architectural creativity run wild? Build the wizard tower of your wildest dreams - whether that's a snowman-shaped tower, or something even more bizarre. The possibilities are endless and the only limit is your imagination (and, you know, boxy rooms). So go ahead, unleash your inner wizard-architect, and design the tower you've always wanted!
Are you tired of dealing with unhappy, unproductive wizards? Keep your tower running like a well-oiled magical machine by managing your mages like the boss that you are, and train the next generation of powerful wizards! Pay generous wages, fulfill their needs, and teach them the ways of the wizard – watching as they grow from low-potential, bumbling novices to masterful artificers before your eyes!
What started as simple recipes will quickly become complex crafting chains as your ambitions grow and your mages advance. You'll want to invest research into administration so you can spend less time micromanaging to turn your essence into gold.
Are you tired of pesky monsters waltzing into your wizard tower uninvited? Want to keep your tower safe and secure? Fill your entrance with traps, and watch as the monsters drop like flies. Experiment with different types of traps – or even summon bosses you’ve defeated to help defend your tower – to find the perfect build for your tower's security.
Features:
Defend Your Base: Fill the entrance of your tower with traps and watch as the monsters trying to take down your tower drop like flies.
Manage Your Mages: Keep your tower running like a well-oiled magical machine by managing your mages. Pay them generous wages, fulfill their needs and keep them happy.
Summon Powerful Bosses: Challenge the biggest bad guys in their area and their lackeys. Show off your tower’s strength by defeating these foes and taking home all the bragging rights.
Train and Practice: Train your next generation of powerful wizards! Watch as they grow from low-potential, bumbling novices to full-fledged artificers.
Flex Your Alchemy Skills: Start with simple recipes and watch as your expertise grows and you can start making even more advanced items. Invest research into administration so you can spend less time micromanaging your mages.
