Today's update will add to the game new parameter: relationship. Relationship is needed for crating a couple. There are two ways to improve it: conversations and gifts. Each settler has own set of beloved and hated items, as well as beloved and hated topics - player can learn these through conversation. The next step here is various proposals including marriage - these will come in next update already.

IMPORTANT
1) Please, feel free to use built-in bug reporter (F11) - it will help development a lot.
2) If something is broken make sure you have verified game files and started new world, remember -KINGDOMS is still EA, I try to make saves compatibility for every new version of the game, but can't guarantee it all the time.
3) The game is still in development, it's NOT finished product, updates are coming 3-4 times a week and that will inevitably cause various issues. Updates for game in development and for finished game - are two absolutely different things, remember that. Game mechanics come and gone, bugs are being fixed and new ones appear all the time. Its a normal thing for development process. If you want to experience KINGDOMS as it was initially designed - smooth, without bugs and full of working mechanics - please, wait till final version will be out.
4) You can support development of KINGDOMS on my official Patreon page.
Thanks for your support, see you very soon!
