Patch Notes - 2025 February 21

Post by Kandarin »

Game Mechanics
  • Font bars against a character now increase the cost of setting traps, setting bars and removing others' bars on that font for that character, to a maximum of 10 MP increase. This should provide a measure of trap counterplay, though one that'll take teamwork for most factions. As always, the creator of the font is immune to this interference.
  • Holy Radiance renewal, like activation, is now 5 MP for 15 minutes.
  • The Set Spelltrap skill (which has never worked) has been removed and CP has been refunded to people who had it. The workings of this skill were more complex by an order of magnitude than most other things in code and were only ever properly understood by one dev who isn't active nowadays. It has resisted multiple attempts by other devs to clue out, and it's time we stopped attempting to.
Major Bugs
  • Fixed a very old, massive hidden bug with font usage that was creating multiples of Draw and Overdraw records (and thus more opportunities for bars and traps) if the font had more than one person tapped into it at the time.
  • Fixed an issue that was keeping max-level NPCs from actually shifting locations as suggested by the last patch.
  • Redeemed should no longer get charged full cost for spellgem attacks vs structures.
  • Redeemed spell and spellgem attack dropdowns should now correctly show their costs in HP instead of MP.
  • Fixed some bugs that were keeping MP-total-based font tap tracking from working right.
  • Fixed a series of bugs with daily tick that were breaking many things associated with daily tick.
Minor Bugs
  • Dropping out of angelhood should properly remove all HC cloaks now.
  • Void Walkers with Initiate of the Shadow should now no longer get an error message every time they pass through an area that disallows hiding (like open water).
  • Fixed an edge case where picking up a new Dark Enlightenment form could leave you with status effects active from an old one.
  • Fixed an edge case where you could still get Defiler Poison through Alchemy with Mask of the Penitent up.
  • Fixed the extraneous "and" broadcast in the faction announcement when you changed only one thing when editing a Faction.
  • Sanctuary Blessing should now grant 30 ticks of duration instead of 29.
