Same with tree trunk and wooden planks. They have the same exchange. So if i make planks out of my trees i get more from that tree. Seems quite strange.

If you take the time to saw up the tree into planks, then you have added value to the resource, so it becomes more valuable. Every step of processing adds value to a resource, and for this reason trees/planks end up at about the same value.
So if you spend the extra time to saw up the wood you get more for it per tree because it takes more effort to produce.

30 tiles at normal zoom is 1200px, which even at 1920x1080 resolution is at least half a screen away from visible area. At 1024x720 it's even farther. I suggest distance is half screen minimum size at selected resolution (540/40 and 360/40 in given examples).

Today I lost half of my crossbowmen because I didn't hear anything. By the way, what if... I'm annoying my enemy with a scout on the left side of the map and he shoots at me with archers, while at the same time another enemy starts attacking my troops on the right side of the map? Will it say 'your troops are under attack' even though my scout is under attack as well and that's in my vision?

I think it should also be marked on minimap where player's units are attacked. Maybe it should be crossed swords where units fight (it can have other colours for other player - red where player's units fight, blue where ally's units fight, and green where enemies fight against each other).

EDIT: I might have asked this already, somewhere, but in the original TPR, your serfs wouldn't use the enemies' roads to walk on, and sometimes I like to play KaM as a kind of city builder, so whenever I conquer an enemy village, I try and link it up with mine. But that doesn't work if your villagers can't use it. I know it's really no big deal, but could this be solved somewhere this decade? It's really no problem at all, though. It holds a very low priority if it'd even get done at all. Also, I didn't know if this was a bug, or something intentional, so I proposed it here. If it's not supposed to be here, I will bring it up in the ideas topic.

Serfs would use enemy roads in TSK/TPR too, I used to connect my village to the enemy's after defeating them. Enemy fields wouldn't be used, but they will in the Remake.

When you don't have enough serves longer distances will be neglected first which it probably was
