Diod v0.1.0.29 — Outdoor survival

- Start outdoors at level 0. Bunkers, cryo doors and archive terminals are gone; all 15 survival books are available in the journal, and pea seeds can be gathered near the starting shore.
- Complete roadmap milestones to earn XP once. Every new level earns a worker, starting at 100 XP. Workers arrive nearby on clear, dry ground; awards survive restarts without duplicates.
- Sleep on the ground from Pause. Bedding restores more health. Sleep advances food, water and world time and stops before reserves become unsafe.
- Player hydration is visible in the HUD and pause menu. Drink reachable freshwater with E or H; seawater is refused. Fill existing waterskins from Bag, drink from Bag or a quick slot, and keep the empty skin.
- Existing saves receive a complete before-outdoor backup. Old indoor occupants and belongings move onto the surface; original geography, earthworks, buildings, inventory, XP and settlers are preserved.

UPDATING
Continue your existing Kungsholmen save; no New Game is needed. Close the game before replacing the complete application/folder. Save format 8 keeps a before-outdoor backup in the active run; do not downgrade that upgraded run. XP is retained, but displayed levels now start at zero and can be one lower. Existing settlers count towards prior earned arrivals; additional earned workers appear on safe ground.

CONTROLS
Pause → Sleep on ground. Use bedding with E for faster healing.
E: Drink freshwater when focused on the water prompt. H: drink nearby freshwater.
Bag: fill an empty waterskin at freshwater; drink a full skin or assign it to a quick slot.
Roadmap: complete objectives for XP. Settlement: assign and equip workers.

NOTES
- Freshwater is deliberately treated as clean game water; filtration and disease are not simulated. Kungsholmen’s surrounding Mälaren water is classified as a lake. Player thirst is new; settler and horse needs retain their existing systems.
- The portable water container is the existing reusable waterskin, not a modern bottle. Drinking one restores 60 water and returns an empty skin.
- Tests use isolated saves and finite fixture supplies, not a complete zero-resource survival journey. Native Windows/Linux GPU and laptop performance testing remain unavailable. Windows publisher signing is not configured.
