bug report and minor issues
just some things ive noticed after a few hours of playing.
loving the game so far so please don't take any of these as negative criticisms, purely just things i noticed that i thought maybe weren't intended results of mechanics and i know the game is still early access and so i hope these will be helpful.

bugs:
1. when wearing a cape and sometimes when not, spamming movement keys causes game to stutter and sometimes completely freeze.
2. dont know how it happened, but at one point i noticed i had infinite sprint with no stamina drain, after releasing and sprinting again it started draining as normal.
3. sometimes if you get too close to a boar they cant damage you.
4. sometimes when launching game i get an endless black screen and never see the logo.
5. my character sometimes has "phantom images" trailing behind animations. like a crashed windows xp window that you drag around leaving phantom windows everywhere. it doesn't continually repeat until it covers the screen but i do see something frozen and clitchy trailing behind movements.


minor issues:
1. fences current shape and size lends them to be a bit inflexible in placement with a few issues. placing on slopes causes half the fence to be underground. their size means you cant use them to seal off small gaps between buildings.
recommendations would be to either include a second fence piece that is half the length, or to go with the "medieval dynasties" approach and have a click and drag fence that has a cost generated based on how far you drag it and how many segments are created. this method also allowed for traveling up slopes.
2. placing 3 fences in a triangle or standing on a rock makes you invincible to early raids. perhaps if no pathing to the player is found, they redirect to targeting storage and other settlers?
3. structure placement hitboxes can get a little jank with the "objects prevent placing this building" issue. perhaps making that less sensitive and allowing minor placement overlap could allow more precise structure placement.
4. colorblind issue (me). tin ore, crude stone, and copper ore all look the same to me when in a big grid of other resources at the stockpile or in a box. it could be helpful if (even though maybe unrealistic) the tin ore had a slight silvery color and the copper had a slight coppery color it would be quicker to spot.
5. settler inventory. im still new and just entering tier 2 finally and i cant seem to find my settlers clothing and weapons. i have better weapons and armor in storage but my workers still use clubs and basic clothing. perhaps seeing equipped items in the inspect settler screen would be very helpful.

I finally built my village hall today and then had to end the game. Now I have loaded the game tonight to be able to continue but all the building progress is gone. What sense does a save system that can't save building progress make?

Oh ya that sounds bad. I cant say ive run into that one personally. Did you double check the correct save file and the autosave? Maybe the most recent autosave will be good.

In autosave its the same sh*** the buildingprogress is gone. So you have to finish a building otherwise you lost all the progess.
