Hey folks, Updates to SÆLIG have been quite thin for a while now so I wanted to post this article to show you all some of the progress that has been made. Update 16 is well under way and there has been a lot of new stuff added, but we're not finished yet. I'm delighted to be able to show off this new content. [b]Renting Houses[/b] This allows you to rent out your unoccupied houses. The rent is paid to you at the end of every day and is based on the value of the house - so the more upgraded a house is, the higher rent will be, but you can also make manual adjustments.

There will also be abandoned buildings. Unoccupied wilderness buildings can be claimed by the player.

Previously I was going to replace these maps all together, but for now I will upgrade them.
