Guild Management Game Really Necessary Update out.

 

In advance, I want to say I'm sorry for leaving a few bugs and issues on the game, since it was either I launch the update now, or get it on hold for a week or two more.

The reason why I wanted to launch this update, is because of the lots of things it brings with it.

One of the things this update fixes, is the monsters loot.

Loot

Before this update, each item that looted from monsters had a rigid body, so physics and terrains could alter the movement of items, and also have the chance of causing them to go some place you can't reach, like in the case of Gavea's Southeast field cliffs. If a loot you got falls on the water, you lost it.

Now not only the game checks if the destination of the item upon looting is reachable, but also the jump the item does is scripted, so there is no way the item may slide somewhere else other than around where it dropped.

Debuff Empowering

Now damage dealing debuffs will get their damage increased based on the character Wisdom.

This change was done because, if it wasn't done, damage dealing debuffs would easily turn to irrelevant later in the game.

I also fixed an issue with the script that checks if a debuff should afflict someone or not. Seems like I had messed up on the condition when I made it.

Status Fixes

There were some issues with defense rate and defense pierce status (which are an addendum used to determine how much damage the monster will get, either reduced or extra), and now combats against certain monsters is no longer harder than should.

Interface Changes

Many interfaces got tweaks, fixes and changes. The issue where quick slots, items descriptions and stuffs weren't showing tooltips are fixed.
I also changed the text object used on many interfaces of the game (I don't know if I missed any), so the text should look cleaner and better.

Item Quick Slotting

Yes, you can now quick slot items on your character. Just pick up the item on the inventory, and drop it on the slot. Pressing the quick slot key will use the item bound to it.

2 New Areas

Originally, only one area was going to be includded on the update, which is Traveller's Path, which is located West of Gavea Farmlands. But today I decided to work a bit on the sewers of Gavea, since I already added the entrance days ago, so here we go. Gavea Sewers is also includded.

I only managed to get one floor of Gavea Sewers done, and I still need to work more on it, like adding lighting, fixing some issues, and also add more monsters.

Sadly, I wont add screenshots showing the new areas, because it's 3:29am and I will need to be going sleep in 30 minutes, so I guess this can be a kind of quest you guys can take, like... Find out how the place look by itself. Beside, the photo used as spoiler of this news was taken in Traveller's Path.

I recommend you guys to follow me on twitter, since I usually showcase what I'm doing in the project there, since it's really quick to do so.

Beside, I should make more posts here, and a page dedicated to this project, since seeking the post with the download link everytime I launch a new update is really bad.

As for future planning, I'm working on a witch which will be the next recruitable character the game will have. You can check the spoiler on my twitter posting bellow:

So far, I've done the animations and the basic tech stuffs. She now need skills.

Soon you guys can try getting her on your team, beside I'm not sure if I'll make her as easy to get as Asphalion was.

Have fun :)
