Nested Lands update 0.8.1 adds the ability to build and upgrade Village Walls through the Village Center, featuring four progression levels tied to your Village Level. The patch introduces a Preserving Bin for extending food shelf life and enables villagers to auto-repair assigned buildings. Villager production limits have increased to 300, with smarter gathering behavior now letting villagers collect resources from safe zones outside Village Limits. Combat improvements include buffed Village Guards, refined enemy AI, and animation fixes, alongside new interaction options for enemies requesting mercy. Various quality-of-life features such as free blueprint rotation, equipment stat comparisons, a personal storage chest, and multiplayer map enhancements have also been implemented.
