I tested Settle the World a lot over Christmas.
Both in single player and in multiplayer mode.
I noticed a few problems...above all, the game is too easy, or in other words, it's too easy to get the required resources.

That's why we've made some changes to the raw materials.
This mainly affects tobacco and furs.
Tobacco is now only found in rather hot areas, while furs are mainly found in colder regions.
Tundra and desert no longer give iron ore, and swamps only if there happens to be an iron bonus field there.

An overview of all terrain types including the resources found there has been added to the in-game help to make it a little clearer what can be found where.

Furthermore, it has become apparent during play that large cities use up some resources very quickly.
A medium-sized smithy with three trained workers consumes a full load of iron ore every two to three turns.
There is now a new transport unit so that the transport wagons don't have to keep travelling back and forth.
The large wagon train.
This unit can be built if there is a sawmill in the city.
The large wagon train has four cargo holds instead of just two.

In cities, the number of tools and muskets carried by pioneers and soldiers is now displayed at the top of the screen together with the description of the unit (if the unit was selected by clicking on it).

Many other bugs and problems that caused crashes have also been fixed.
