Thanks for the great feedback!
As mentioned in the "About update 23.03.25" devlog post I made, I'm looking into ways to improve and fix the new system, to make it more enjoyable for players. I understand that the current version of it is not good enough, and will do my best to polish it.
Since there are a bunch of options to change things, and multiple opinions I received from different people, I'll need to check and think about what the best way to improve the new system actually is. Detailed feedback like your post help greatly to figure out what is going wrong, and what I might need to change, so I appreciate it a lot!
