Hi, I have a couple suggestion that, I think, would make a lot of sense for this game.
In the winter, there is generally less activities and things to do. I’d like to suggest a purpose for lakes in the winter.
- let people walk over frozen lakes
- add ice cutter shack. Work area of this building must be placed on lakes and building operates, of course, only in the winter.
- in the winter, ice cutters cut cubes of ice that are delivered to the new type of undeground food storage that uses ice for refrigeration. As side effect, it produces water for nearest buildings (acts as a well)
- holes, cut in ice, enable fishing in the winter if fishing shack work area is placed over them
These new storage building could have some kind of ice remaining lifetime bar and had to be restocked with ice every winter.
