weeks ago. Also, quite a few things you asked for are already planned down the line! One such case relates to overly hilly maps, something we plan to mitigate with flattened &#8220;plains&#8221; clusters.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Resources Tooltip: Now With More Details!<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>As part of our continued efforts to improve your medieval city-building experience, we added a detailed breakdown of each resource\u2019s physical location in the resources tooltip. For instance, hovering over the wood icon will show you how much of that resource is currently available in storage, in production, in stalls or in transit. In a similar vein, if you have wood which is already in use, the tooltip will clue you in: it may be in production, in construction or in transit.<\/p>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"aligncenter size-full\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"530\" height=\"530\" src=\"https:\/\/www.polymorph.games\/foundation\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-12-06-13_26_27-Hurricane-Foundation-Release-dev_1.9-core-game-2-1872-deff81fed9.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1605\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.polymorph.games\/foundation\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-12-06-13_26_27-Hurricane-Foundation-Release-dev_1.9-core-game-2-1872-deff81fed9.png 530w, https:\/\/www.polymorph.games\/foundation\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-12-06-13_26_27-Hurricane-Foundation-Release-dev_1.9-core-game-2-1872-deff81fed9-300x300.png 300w, https:\/\/www.polymorph.games\/foundation\/news\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/12\/2022-12-06-13_26_27-Hurricane-Foundation-Release-dev_1.9-core-game-2-1872-deff81fed9-150x150.png 150w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 530px) 100vw, 530px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Delivery quest changes<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>The delivery quest window now clearly shows how much of the required resources are accumulated in your warehouses. Furthermore, reserved resources from your warehouses are now included in the calculation of the delivery quests. We also made it so reserved resources from your warehouses will now be cancelled in order to complete delivery quests.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Loading Screen Tips<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have noticed new loading screen art, which has been added as part of the 1.9 update.
