Update Notes / Updates September 23rd - Dye System Overhaul & Electro Dye

« Last post by Thomy on September 23, 2025, 08:08:46 am »

Hello everyone!

Equipment dyes are now account-wide. Freely apply, remove, and preview anytime. The new Electro Dye has arrived, plus loads of newly dyeable items. These include Completionist Capes, Godblades, Barrows, Upgraded invention equipment and more. Your existing equipment was automatically transformed into the new dye system.

Dye System Overhaul
You no longer receive a separate item when applying a dye to equipment. Instead, all dyes are now stored account-wide and can be freely selected or removed at any time. Dyes can no longer be lost. All previously dyed items have been reverted to their original appearance, while the dyes used on them have been unlocked for your account and their equipment charges fully restored. You can view and manage your dyes through the Collection Log interface, where you can also preview new dyes. The same functionality is available in the Equipment Screen, allowing you to apply, remove, or preview dyes with ease.



Moreover, a brand-new recolor option is here: Electro Dye! You can purchase it from Bolkoy for 800EC per bottle. Even better, many more additional items are now dyeable. On top of that, the special attack of dyed weapons will now match the dye color as well. Here's the new dyeable items:

• Completionist capes
• Vanstrom necklaces
• Upgraded Bandos, Armadyl & Battlerobe
• Upgraded void knight armour.
• Godblades
• Statius, Vesta, Morrigan & Zuriel
• Barrows equipment
• Dark bow

Here's a few examples:

Changelog:

• The dig mechanic of Ice strykewyrm can now properly hit your familiar.
• Bake bie spell is now correctly checking for your Cooking level.
• The amount of summoning points a super restore potion restores has been reduced to 20%. That means a summoning potion is 5x more effective than a super restore potion.
• Buying 10,000 or more of an item from any shop now shows a warning popup.
• The wield animation for Nightveil staff has been adjusted. It's now facing upwards instead of slightly tilted towards the side.
• The maximum individual item value familiars can hold was increased from 50k to 250k.
• Turael and various other npcs can no longer be killed by magic spells or familiars.
• Familiars no longer despawn when changing construction mode.
• The dialogues for Bolkoy have been updated. That includes an introduction to the dye system.
• The calculation for Void Knight set bonuses has been reworked. You can now freely combine normal, elite, and upgraded pieces while still receiving the set bonus. The elite bonus is applied when at least two elite pieces are worn, while the upgraded bonus requires a full set of four upgraded pieces. In addition, upgraded Void helms now count as two set pieces, allowing players to leave out Void Knight gloves without losing the full bonus.

I'm very happy with the new dye system and excited to see where it goes. If you've got new items in mind that you'd like to dye feel free to suggest them! The new dye system makes it very easy to add dyeable items to the pool and to create new dyes as well. I'll be focusing on the Halloween Event now. It should arrive sometime mid October and lasts a month!

All the best,
Thomy




Patch notes September 26th:

• Action queuing for Lunar spells has been improved. Your player now waits for the next attack tick before casting various Lunar spells. This fixes a problem where you couldn't cast some Lunar spells during combat. Spellbook swap, Taste Vengeance and NPC contact can always be cast instantly.
• Dyed familiars now have their ability animations dyed too - just like weapon special attacks.
• Deflecting effects such as vengeance, ring of recoil, spiked shields, etc. now count towards killer points for monster drops.
• Monster aggression is now resetting after 10 minutes of being in the same area. Minigames are excluded from this mechanic. To get a better idea of how exactly that works, have a look here: https://oldschool.runescape.wiki/w/Tolerance
• Ring of recoil how has an option to check charges and break it apart to reset charges.

Update Notes / Updates September 9th - Member Benefits, Coins Collector and Familiar Recolors

« Last post by Thomy on September 08, 2025, 09:47:30 am »

Hello everyone!

Familiars can now be dyed, with recolors previewable from the Summoning menu. Members who complete the Rich Get Richer quest gain access to the Coins Collector, and additional Lunar spells have been unlocked.

Familiars Recolors
Familiars can now be dyed! You can preview recolors in the familiar interface. Applying a dye permanently unlocks that color for the chosen familiar only, and you can switch between that familiar’s unlocked dyes at any time. Here's a few examples:


More Membership Benefits
Additional member benefits have been added:

• Ability to use Coins Collector to automatically pick up coin drops from monsters. They are stored in your Coin Pouch or inventory.
• Increased clue scroll rewards. The member drop bonus is now working for clue scroll rewards. That means increase dye shard drops and also a bigger chance to receive additional drops.

Rich get Richer - Coins Collector
A new quest, Rich get Richer, has been added! Speak to Brian O'Richard in Falador Park to begin. The quest can be completed by both members and non-members, but the reward is members-only: the Coins Collector, which automatically picks up coin drops and places them in your Coin Pouch or inventory. It's a bit pricy but definitely worth it!


Changelog:

• Bake pie lunar spell is now working.
• Magic imbue lunar spell now creates combination runes from elemental runes.
• Superglass make lunar spell now creates molten glass from buckets of sand. There is still no way to obtain buckets of sand - this is part of a future patch.
• Familiars can no longer damage enemies that you don't have the Slayer level requirement for.
• A new Lunar spell has been added to tan hides: Tan leather
• An issue was fixed where the Bonecrusher would interfere with Charms collector and not automatically pick up drops.
• Various minigame and resource shops no longer deplete their inventory when buying items. Their stock is now infinite.
• The clan chat's kick command now correctly removes users from the channel and applies a 1 minute ban.
• It is no longer possible to move your camera beneath the floor in the Duel Arena or other locations.
• The client's window resize events have been overhauled. It was possible to freeze or lag the game by continuously resizing the game window. There's now a limit on how many window resize events are fired. The game's now also opening with its minimum window dimensions at the centre of its active monitor.
• Sir Tiffy Cashien now exchanges your mole items for noted bird nests. Mole noses can now also be noted.
• Unholy Cursebearer now drops Chalkos bars.
• Mole now has increased drop chances for Sidero bars.
• King black dragon has increased drop chance for Sidero bars.
• Chrysos, Atsali and Sidero bars can now be deconstructed into 1-3 bars of their lower tier.
• Toolbelt items are only used for crafting when marked as consumables. This fixes a problem where your Tinderbox was previously used to craft Pyrelord pouches.
• The Giant mole (including hm) is now considered a boss and drops items for up to 3 players.
• The hit counters for monsters in instances no longer reset when combat resets. This fixes a problem where players would not get any drops when resetting combat with a boss.
• Ghast pouches can now be noted.
• Improvements have been made to the catch up mechanic when following entities. It can happen that your character loses one tick because of pathing calculations being delayed. In such a scenario you'll be granted an additional step to walk for next tick to make up for the previously delay.
• Duel arena rules have been updated to include a 'No familiars' rule.
• The item protection prayer is working as intended again.

Thank you for your feedback on the Summoning skill! So far we've only received very positive criticism and that makes me happy. The summoning skill is definitely a great success.

All the best,
Thomy

Update Notes / Updates August 18th - Summoning Skill Release & Coin Pouch

« Last post by Thomy on August 18, 2025, 09:41:49 am »

Hello everyone!

I'm thrilled to introduce Summoning, a brand-new combat skill that brings powerful familiars to your side in battle. You can choose from over 40 unique monsters to be your familiar! We are also releasing the coin pouch for infinite gold piece storage. There's also lots of bugfixes from the past month.


Summoning – Introduction

With Summoning, you can create magical pouches that call forth familiars - unique monsters that fight alongside you and provide helpful abilities.

Each familiar has its own combat level, which increases as it gains experience in fights. The stronger your familiar becomes, the more effective it is in combat. But Summoning isn't just about damage - familiars can also help with tasks like banking items, smelting ores, removing poison, and more. Some even offer extra inventory space for your items.

You'll unlock Summoning by completing the 'Druid Summoning' quest, a short introduction that walks you through creating your first familiar, using its ability, and learning the basics of pouch crafting. The sections below explain everything in detail, but feel free to skip ahead if you prefer learning as you go.




Summoning – Basics

To summon a familiar, you need to craft a familiar pouch using the following items:

• Empty familiar pouch
• Spirit shards
• A charm (dropped by monsters)
• An ingredient (varies depending on the familiar)

You can buy empty pouches and spirit shards from Pikkupstix in Taverley. Charms are dropped by monsters. Every kill has a 25% base chance to drop a charm (roughly one in four). There are four types of charms:

• Gold
• Green
• Crimson
• Blue

Each charm is tied to stronger familiars and drops from tougher monsters. Charm drop rate bonuses:

• Charm collector increases the base drop chance to 50%
• Being on a Slayer task doubles charm drop rate
• Fighting in the Wilderness also doubles charm drop rate
• All effects stack – so if you're on a Slayer task in the Wilderness, you'll get a 100% charm drop rate. Exceeding 100% of the drop rate can result in double charm drops!

Summoning – Training

The main way to train Summoning is by summoning familiars and using them in combat. Each familiar has its own combat level, which increases as they gain experience - just like your character. High-level familiars can become formidable allies in battle. Familiars gain combat experience whenever they deal damage:

• 1 damage = 80 familiar XP
• You gain 10 Summoning XP for every 1 damage your familiar deals

Familiar levels range from 1 to 250:

• Levels 1–99 use the standard XP curve
• After 99, XP scaling slows down
• Level 250 is reached at 250 million XP

Summoning – Abilities

Every familiar has a unique ability it can use alongside its combat. To activate a familiar's ability, you'll need:

• Summoning points
• A scroll specific to that familiar

You can turn a familiar pouch into 15 ability scrolls. Details about each ability - including its effect and Summoning point cost - can be found in the Summoning interface under the “Scrolls” tab.
Use your familiar's ability wisely - they can give you the edge in battle or provide helpful utility outside of combat.



Summoning – FAQ

• What happens to the Hiscores? The maximum total level is now 2475 and you can try to claim the #1 total level rank.
• Does Summoning increase combat level to 138? No - this is not planned. You cannot go beyond the maximum combat level of 126. Summoning will affect your combat level the same way Magic or Ranged does.
• What about PvP? Currently Summoning is enabled for single combat PvP. There is no automatic attacking of players when using abilities. You must specify what player your familiar should fight. If this becomes an issue we are definitely open to disable familiar combat in single combat PvP zones!
• Where's the wiki? Here: https://emps-world.net/wiki/Summoning Our wiki editors have been working on it for some time already and the full page should be finished in the coming week(s).

Summoning – Impressions



Coin Pouch

You can now safely store an almost infinite amount of gold pieces in the Coin Pouch. It can be accessed from the rank icon orb on your minimap. This is the top-right orb. Hovering over it you see your current gold pieces, Emps Credits and PvP rank. Adding and withdrawing gold pieces can be done by right-clicking the orb or using the "Add-to pouch" item click option. Most in-game activities are now paid from coins in your pouch. That includes the following:

• Shops
• Travelling with ships
• Buying beers
• Tanning hides
• Repairing items
• Decanting
• Grand Exchange
• Death coffin
• High / Low level alchemy spell
• Construction rooms & styles
• Daily task coimpletion
• Thieving
• Picking up coins

It's certainly possible that we forgot activities or interactions where the coin pouch doesn't work. Please report them and it'll get fixed right away.




Game fixes / changes:

• You'll now always get a big warning and an animation on the floor when an item is dropped and there is no space in your inventory.
• An issue with Tormented demons has been fixed where they doubled the reflected damage.
• Tool Leprechaun in Catherby has been moved outside his house to make clicking and using his storage easier.
• A warning for using wilderness teleports has been added to POH portals.
• Daily rewards that cannot be added to your bank nor inventory are now dropped to the floor.
• The check for an enemy already being under attack now happens when you are within attack range instead of when clicking on an enemy.
• Colored promethium axes & pickaxes now also show their colored version during skilling animations.
• Other players can no longer be seen and interacted with during their logout process. Prior to this update you'd get warnings that this has already logged out, etc. Now they just aren't rendered anymore.
• Monster aggression no longer works on other monsters through walls.
• Withdrawing all items from the death coffin now automatically equips wearable items.
• Lighting now uses a combination of front and back-face shading. Parts of objects that are not lit by the sun become a little darker resulting in more depth of scenery.
• Underwater color is no longer blue on lower floor quality settings.
• Item bonuses are no longer downloaded on-demand but as a full package. That means there is no longer a short delay when hovering items before seeing their bonuses.

Many thanks to everyone testing the Summoning skill thoroughly in the test world. I'm sure we'll discover new things soon enough but overall I am very pleased with the current release. The wiki team has already started working on various articles for the Summoning skill: https://emps-world.net/wiki/Summoning

Have fun with thew new Summoning skill!

All the best,
Thomy




Changes August 19th:

• Familiars can no longer attack other player familiars outside the wilderness.
• Spirit weed herb and seeds have been added to the herb drop lists.
• Familiars now copy their owner's protection prayers. This also increases the prayer drain rate.
• You can now correctly withdraw coins from the Coin pouch.
• Exp. bonuses now work with familiars including member and double xp.
• Training dummies no longer grant any Summoning exp.
• Summoning charms can no longer be traded.
• Summoning point requirements are now shown in Summoning levels instead of points (divided by 10) for better clarity.
• Friends and ignore list can be clicked again when a familiar is active.
• Summoning bag no longer allows to go over its maximum capacity
• Toolbelt can now hold Spirit shards and Summoning pouches in its on category.
• You are now notified when coins are put into your Coin pouch for the first time.

Changes August 23rd:

• Following support spells can now also be used on familiars: Any cure poison, stat spy, any heal, vengeance other and any potion share. Familiars get potion boosts inherited from their owners. Any familiar boosts and effects are not kept upon logout! Unicorn stallion heal can now also be used on itself or other familiars.
• Your following action is no longer reset after successfully casting a magic spell. You'll now stay within follow distance. This ensures smooth gameplay when casting multiple spells on moving targets.
• Coin pouch actions are now grouped together each tick before displayed. You'll no longer see 10x gold withdrawn when purchasing 10 items but rather a single popup with all the amounts added together.
• We've implemented a freeze tracking mechanism in PvP zones - inspired from OSRS. When a target that you froze is further away than 10 tiles, they automatically get unfrozen immediately.
• Withdrawing coins from your Coin Pouch now requires you to enter your bank pin.
• The Coin Pouch can no longer be used to store coins in the wilderness. You can freely use it to pay for various activities but adding coins can only happen outside the wilderness.
• An issue was fixed with PvP icons which would turn exp. gains and other icons invisible.
• There is now a toggle in the familiar interface for automatically retaliating during combat.

Update Notes / Updates June 28th - Summoning Beta & Graphical Optimizations

« Last post by Thomy on June 28, 2025, 08:42:03 am »

Hello everyone!

Today's update is the final preparation for the Summoning skill which is set to release in August. Testing is available in our dev world for everyone. I've also prepared plenty of rendering engine improvements and various bugfixes. Most of these have already been rolled out over the past weeks but here's the official patch notes!

Summoning Beta Test - FINISHED
I'm excited to show you progress on the Summoning skill! The aim of this test is to get a look and feel of Summoning and obtain feedback from it. I'm sure you have ideas or concerns - please share them with us! The Summoning skill summons familiars that aid you in various ways. A familiar is a monster that fights alongside you. There's various different familiars to choose from. They all come with their individual level and a unique ability. Using your familiar's ability costs Summoning points - every Summoning level gives 10 Summoning points. Your familiars keep their individual level progress when re-summoned but do not transfer it over to different familiars.

I'd like to keep this really simple and just offer some assistance to get you started. The Summoning test is available in world 3 - our test realm. You can log into the world with your normal username and password. Your progress is not saved and you have plenty of developer commands available! Feel free to roam around the test world and fight monsters with familiars. You can withdraw any familiar from your Summoning bag - accessible from the minimap icon after levelling the Summoning skill. You can also craft pouches (not necessary when using commands!) at the Grand Exchange or Taverley.


How to get started:

• Log into world 3 with your username and password.
• Type into chat: ::summoning start
• Open Summoning bag by clicking on Summoning orb on your minimap
• Withdraw pouches (scrolls can be used from the bag) and have fun!

Here's a few useful commands:

Code: [Select]

::setlevel summoning 99 - set summoning skill level
::summoning familiars max/min/99 - set familiar levels
::summoning pouches - spawn all pouches and scrolls into summoning bag
::summoning pots - spawn 4 summoning potions to heal your familiars and restore summoning points
::setlevel hitpoints 10000 - become unkillable
::commands xxx - search for commands
For the final release I still got an introduction quest planned as well as charm drops for monsters. And, of course, your feedback! Take your time, test it and let me know if it's something fun or boring. Are familiars too strong? What are your concerns for the game's balancing?

Summoning FAQ:

• When is the release? August.
• Does Summoning increase combat level to 138? No - this is not planned. You cannot go beyond the maximum combat level of 126. Summoning will affect your combat level the same way how Magic or Ranged does.
• What about PvP? Currently Summoning is disable for single combat PvP. You can use your familiars in multi combat zones though. There is no automatic attacking of players when using abilities. You must specify what player your familiar should fight.
• How do familiars level? By combat. Your familiars gain combat experience when fighting monsters. Every damage dealt gives a familiar 80 experience - same as your combat experience.
• What is the maximum level for familiars? Currently 250 - which is reached at 250M experience. The experience formula for familiars is the same as the skill formula from levels 1 to 99. Afterwards the formula flattens and new levels require a little more than 1M experience.

Known Issues / Under Construction

• Introduction quest
• Sounds for every familiar & ability
• Scroll creation
• Charm drops
• Toolbelt integration
• Balancing

Game fixes / changes:

• You can no longer logout during the cast animation of the telegrab spell. This fixes an issue where you could lose the item you were trying to grab.
• Har'Lakk and Yk'Lagor no longer spawn minions inside walls.
• A bug was fixed where the Kalphite Queen head would not drop.
• You can now shoot projectiles over Lumbridge and Barbarian village bridges.
• It's no longer possible to attack wyrm moulds at the same time to bug their combat.
• Melee experience gains from secondary targets (demon halberd) no longer grant the full combat exp. Hits on additional targets now grant half the exp - just like barrage spells or chin chompas.
• Fremennik rings (i) now degrade to their uncharged version.
• The damage type calculation for non-autocast spells has been fixed. Your damage type is still overwritten when a weapon provides a damage type, such as elemental staves, bows, whips, etc.
• An issue was fixed where the general store prices for various Emps Credits store items was wrong.
• You can obtain the shield in the Warrior's Guild minigame again.
• Various NPCs had their secondary dialogue option fixed.
• An issue was fixed where Lady table would still say she collected your items in a PvP death.

Engine fixes / changes:

• Optimizations have been made to the core rendering code. The way how CPU and GPU communicate has been modernized which results in increased performance. This is also a direct preparation for future updates which will support higher graphics driver versions for additional features.
• A bug was fixed for Intel HD graphics chips where the shadow calculation would always be executed. Sadly Intel HD graphics chips are really bad with deciding what part of the shader code to run and what not. They ignore basic logic and execute what they like no matter what. I've prepared a special shader that is only used on Intel HD graphics chips which all the fancy graphics disabled. That means you'll get maximum performance on your laptops, but cannot enable shadows or fancy lighting in return. It wouldn't run well on weaker graphics processors.
• The texture UV calculation code has been improved to produce less visual edges around objects.
• Shadow calculation code has been optimized. It took lots of power out of weaker GPUs to properly render shadows and the calculation relied on hardware operations that aren't always well implemented. The calculation is now done in a custom shader which gives full control over quality and performance.
• An issue was fixed where the water flow direction between Barbarian village and Lumbridge would sometimes bug out.
• The bounding box calculation for lights has been improved. This results in much better performance with many lights rendered in the game. The way light interacts with water has been overhauled. It'll be a little less shiny but light sources are now properly reflected on the water surface. The radius of lava lights was also increased to make areas around lava appear brighter.
• The game settings has been re-structured. There's now also a setting that sends anonymous system information: RAM, CPU, GPU, OS and Java version. We use that data to determine which devices are most used and optimize the game for that. If don't want your anonymous computer data to be submitted, you can disable it from the settings.
• Opening a door no longer makes the lights of upper floors flicker shortly. The priority for loading animated objects has been changed. You'll now see static scenery first before animated objects load. Players and NPCs are still highest priority.
• Clicking a dye preview a second time in equipment screen interface removes the preview.
• An issue was fixed where your face in the make-over mage interface would not properly update.
• More rivers around the map have received water flow configurations.
• The worldmap viewer now preloads more map chunks. Once it's loaded you'll see less black map pieces.
• The animation smoothing code has been improved. The game tries to find better key frames to interpolate with and caches the result for better performance. There's now also fadeout effects for entity and stationary graphic animations.

I hope you're enjoying the Summoning beta! Please leave feedback on Discord or here on the forums. I'll be gone for the whole of July because I'm travelling through Japan. The release for Summoning is scheduled for August. Depending on the feedback and how well the test goes that will either be in early or late August.

All the best,
Thomy

Update Notes / Updates May 13th - Background Sun, Dye Preview, Style Overhaul & More

« Last post by Thomy on May 13, 2025, 08:17:21 am »

Hi everyone!

The game has received a visible sun in the background and you can preview item dyes in the Equipment Screen. Improvements have been made to rendering the game on Apple Silicon devices and our homepage and game launcher have received a style overhaul. Over the past weeks I've prepared the core game logic to support monster vs. monster combat. This patch is preparation for the Summoning release in late August.

Sun in Background

We now have a sun in the background! The sun is shining by default and can be disabled from the game settings. With this update the graphic quality presets have also been adjusted. The lower settings now include shadows and lighting.

Recolourable Item Preview

You can now see a preview of recolourable items in the Equipment Screen. Right-click any item that has a recolour option and select its recoloured versions. That includes dyes, abyssal whips, bows, staves, and other recolourable purchases from Bolkoy. Only you see this preview and it resets once you close the Equipment Screen interface.

Apple Silicon Compatibility
I've optimized the render engine to better support MacBooks. You're now able to select all graphic settings for better visuals. I've also fixed plenty of crashes on apple hardware. I've bought myself a MacBook which makes this a lot easier to work on. The game runs quite well on later models. I can run medium-high settings with stable 60fps on a MacBook Air M4.

Style Overhaul
Various buttons on the homepage and game client have been overhauled. Buttons that call to or continue an action are now orange-red and on the left side. These changes have also been applied to the game client. The top bar showing online player count has been moved. You can view online player count here: https://emps-world.net/stat#statplot,30

Game Launcher Improvements
The game loader now shows details of the past 50 patch notes including a short description. Clicking on the image still brings you to the patch notes post on the forum. Multiple fonts in the loader received shadows and were scaled up to improve readability.

Game fixes / changes:

• Disconnecting from the game now keeps your character online for 20 seconds. This allows you to reconnect to the game without any in-game actions resetting, such as dungeons, minigames, etc. Closing the game is handled as disconnecting from the game. If you wish to truly logout, use the logout button. The reconnect code has also been optimized to speed up the login.
• The support for graphics drivers lower than OpenGL 2.0 has been dropped. This means you now need graphics drivers that are from 2004 or newer to run the game through hardware renderer. I doubt we find a computer that doesn't meet those requirements by now. The fallback for such a case is now the software renderer.
• The rich presence feature for Discord has been enhanced. It now works on computers other than Windows as well. The old library we used was deprecated so we had to find a replacement.
• Many older dialogue select options have been reworked to use the newer select options system. This fixes issues where you could overlap multiple actions.
• An issue was fixed where exiting the Fight Caves would count as multiple completions.
• You can no longer get stuck on the Kal'Ger bridge when spam clicking it.
• Adding multiple tools to the Toolbelt in one go no longer deletes the surplus from your inventory.
• A bug was fixed where your character would spawn at a wrong initial position. This was only a client-sided position desync, you didn't actually spawn in the wilderness!
• Scrollbars in interfaces now retain their scroll position when resizing the game.
• Shadows have been added to various texts to improve readability with bright backgrounds. This improves the readability of the classic chatbox especially.
• Having the game closing dialog open for a few seconds no longer crashes the game client.
• The "New User" button now brings up a screen where you can click useful links. Your browser no longer automatically opens the registration page.

Some of you may or may not have seen me wandering around with various summons in the game. The Summoning skill is progressing nicely! The game supports full npc vs. npc combat with this patch and I'm continuing to configure more summons. You can already click on the Summoning skill icon to see what monsters will be available on release.

All the best,
Thomy

The event is starting today, April 4th and goes until May 4th. Good luck on your rare item hunt and May the 4th be with you!

Death Rework - Loot Coffin
I've reworked the way death works outside the wilderness. Your items no longer drop on the ground but are placed inside a Loot Coffin in Lumbridge. It works the same way as getting drops in dungeons. Your items are placed inside the coffin and you decide when to withdraw them. That persists through updates but not through multiple deaths. The items you don't take out will be deleted on your next death! Lady table is managing the coffin and requires you to pay a fee of 5% of the item value in order to retrieve it. Any item that's worth less than 100k can be withdrawn for free. The fee cannot exceed a maximum of 500k per item. You are no longer teleported to your home location upon death but to the Lumbridge graveyard.


Interface Color Code
The colors of various interfaces have been unified. The aim of this change is to have a re-usable color palette for all interfaces in the game. That means that similar text types such as descriptions, headers, buttons, etc. have the same color in all interfaces. Prior to this update most interface text colors have been rather random.

Bot Detection
We're starting to take more serious action against the use of scripts and bots in the game. It used to be a little bit difficult to detect non-user input. There's now an automated bot detection system that will report and log suspicious user actions. The game analyses your playing behaviour and reports anything that is non-human. We've already had great success in finding bots over the past few weeks with this and will now start using the detection as proof for issuing bans.

Game fixes / changes:

• The trade screen has been modernized. Warnings that items have been changed is now shown in the header and the total value of traded items is displayed. Text colors have been updated to match those of other interfaces.
• The superheat spell now considers Coals in the Coal bag.
• When disconnecting in the wilderness during a PvP fight your account will now always stay online for 20 seconds before logging out. There used to be cases where you could logout a lot quicker. You shouldn't be able to escape a fight by just closing your game. We'll have a look at this and further increase the timer if necessary.
• You can now right-click a Grand Exchange transaction and abort it.
• An issue was fixed where the amount of Warrior Guild tokens wouldn't increase with membership or double exp. active.
• The price of Guardian Angel was reduced from 1,000EC to 100EC. The risk of losing items was greatly reduced and thus the cost of fully protecting your items was also greatly reduced.
• The game now supports IPv6 connections. This fixes a problem with the ISP Bezeq from Israel where players used to get constant connection interruptions. The reason for this came from Bezeq constantly changing IPv4 addresses. They are shuffling your IPv4 connection information at random intervals. It took a while to find out what was going on but we were finally able to create a workaround.
• The code to reconnect to the game has been optimized. Losing your connection for a small amount of time now let's you reconnect faster when your account is still online.

I'll now start working on the basics of the Summoning skill. Stay tuned for more info on that!

All the best,
Thomy



Changelog April 7th:

• UIM can no longer bank their items from the loot coffin.
• The chances to obtain a rare item from Easter eggs have been adjusted to match the rarity during the Christmas event. Eating an easter egg now has a 1 in 333 chance for a rare item. Opening a rares chest now has a 1 in 500 chance for a rare item.
• An issue with the Easter event was fixed where you wouldn't get any hints about Justin hiding on Karamja.
