Shores Unknown

NPC and object idle interactions are in! It's oddly satisfying to watch a bunch of Mortens argue over who gets to sit in a chair.

We’ve been working on improving NPC behaviors to make them more varied and realistic. Instead of just wandering around, they will now participate in what we call “activities”, which can range from scratching one’s back every once in a while to doing blacksmithing work or engaging in conversation with other NPCs.

Depending on time of day, the activities may change, too!

The characters will also react to the player realistically - sometimes, it’s not worth it to drop whatever they were doing and turn around to face the player when a head’s turn will suffice.
