Hey Merchants! Thanks for playing the game and for submitting your feedback! It has became clear that caravan system is not sufficiently good enough for some of you, and I wanted to fix that.
Caravan System enhancements:
1) Can look at ship inventory from caravan navigation menu
2) 4 new caravan actions
3) Caravan action limit increased to 15 (from 6). Go crazy, but not too crazy.
The new actions offer a bit more depth to caravan system planning. I think this screenshot summarizes it well:

- You can now order caravan to buy items (and wait for this) until it has the specified item amount in the storage
- Same goes for loading. Just wait for any possible item at the island
- You can unload any specific island on the islands
- You can also avoid waiting for selling all of the goods in one point. Useful if you have a lot of goods and want to do chain-selling without asking caravan to wait.
These are a bit advanced, so use them at your own discretion, since you can freeze the ship somewhat (i.e. if you order to buy lots of items, but the storage is full with other ones). I know there are still a lot of things that can be added into the caravan system, but I don't think I'm going to go further with any enhancements any time soon.
Added money cap of 2000000000, both for bank and player money. Can't really go over that.
Autorechage module now works in mansion too.
Ship inventory during trade is 6 slots wide now; needed to prevent atakebune inventory going over the trade window :)
Bugfixes
- Fixed a bug with music / ambient sound playback. Fixed it, sound should play better. The bug with option reopening now disappeared for sure.
- Fixed a bug when caravans would sell apples with lower cost
- Fixed a bug when you could get a drago seed during sandbox mode
Languages
- Thai Language support
- Various translation improvements (mostly German translation adjustments, let me know how it feels now)
In addition to that, I am publishing Coldwild Games monthly report for April. A bit longer than usual, but I am talking about Merchant of the Skies development, how are we doing and what can be expected next. Check it out here:
