Updates March 16th 2017 - Graphical Improvements
« on: March 03, 2017, 01:21:41 pm »
Hey guys,

Not a lot of new things with this update. This is mainly another construction preparation and test update. I've optimized how large houses are loaded and added some usability to them. I'll now be able to show you the progress of Construction in the live game. I'll probably do that during the weekend. So make sure to be around. ;)

Fog and Map Loader
You may have already noticed this, because the update went live a few days ago. The map loader now fades in new objects, giving you a smooth loading transition instead of them just popping up. The fog plane was also made circular to give it a more natural feeling. It won't affect performance, but make the game look smoother.

Following things have been changed:
  • Stronger, richer colors for elemental bow particles.
  • Npc and item floor adjustments have slightly been reworked. You should no longer find items being inside the ground. Items should now always be aligned properly to the ground plane.
  • Skulling system tweak: As long as you fight your opponent, your skull will keep refreshing its timer. So you shouldn't lose your skull during fights anymore.
  • You can now get multiple clue scrolls of a kind. The rewarding system has also slightly been adjusted. You now get a casket, which can be opened at a later time or even be traded with other players. This should make it easier to collect clue scrolls and their rewards.
  • Grand Exchange prices of item sets are now calculated from their individual parts. They no longer have a separate price.
  • Music system has completely been rewritten with a new library. Mind testing that for me? It worked on both of my computers, but you never know.
  • Teleport system has completely been reworked. If you find some locations being wrong, please report them to me! I tested a lot of them, but couldn't go through all of them. There's 100+ locations.
  • Price checker now shows rounded comma values of item values. It'll no longer show 20M, but 20.12M for example. The total price is rounded to 4 comma values.

I'm looking really forward to the release of Construction, because it's coming closer! :)

All the best,
Thomy

Tbh rather have some npc that can skull you at edge, the skull refreshing is not very good, since if you don't attack new targets you should lose the skull, but others can simply reset the timer by just attacking you?

Nope. It's refreshed while fighting the same target. You cannot lose a skull during fights. However, the timer of other targets is not affected.

Thomy, maybe there is a change to make thing like, if you have done your clue and get reward, then you also get message about how many clues have you done e.g. "well done! You have done totaly 18 elite clue scrolls!"

Thoughts?

BTW: Great update with clues!  8)

Yeah, sounds nice. I already have something like this planned, but I'd like to count more in-game actions if I release such a system. Definitely something for the future.

We've heard these words before "  because it's coming closer!  " when we were waiting 6 months for g.e
mind being more specific ?

Please make sure to use SB at forums like a hour or 2 before you wanna show your house in the live game, I would really like to take a look at it since I actually have no idea what I should be expecting from such a skill

how about finding out when the skill is actually released? Don't forget that Thomy is working on this server alone and not as his primary job. There is no need for you to get cocky..

2lazy2edit it sorry

@Il skill l, asking him to be more specific is no where close from being cocky, moreover asking him to use SB because I don't feel like missing the second time he is doing it
no need to be a butthurt about it neither
