| |

| |
| − | Balance and Item Changes:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | :*Fixed Dark Fortress encounter length- the finals fights are now accessible! This makes it fairly harder.
| |
| − | :*Reduced rarity of Giant King's Jewel.
| |
| − | :*Increased offense of Black Knight's Gauntlets while reducing its defense.
| |
| − | :*Tweaks to certain crafting recipes and augmentation requirements.
| |
| − | :*A couple books were added.
| |
| − | :*An easter egg was added... but where? :)
| |
| − |
| |
| − | (Possible) Bug Fixes:
| |
| − |
| |
| − | :*Major optimizations to looting.
| |
| − | :*Idling after being defeated.
| |
| − | :*Reworked how the backend handles healing to resolve existing edge cases. Probably introduced new edge cases. We'll find out!
| |
| − | :*Optimizations to host and client networking handling as well as more error checking, may or may not reduce instances of crashing.
| |
| − | :*Resolved several cases where enchants weren't being counted properly during combat or desync of buffs/enchants.
| |
| − | :*Resolved several cases of group combat spam.
| |
| − |
| |
| − | Misc:
| |
| | | | |
| − | :*Moved a handful of activity messages to group if in group combat, i.e. player defeated, rare loot, etc.
| + | <onlyinclude> |
| − | :*Made the backend smart enough to hopefully know if your key got ate after a DC.
| + | =====Beta 0.25.4 - o i i a===== |
| − | :*"Aspect" enchants now read the correct enchantment strength on tooltip, though they still do nothing except be cosmetic.
| + | {| class="wikitable mw-collapsible mw-collapsed" <noinclude>style="width:65%"</noinclude> |

| | |- | | |- |
| | | colspan="3" | | | | colspan="3" | |
| − | - Group Combat -
| + | I'm surprised the host isn't down yet, honestly. |
| | | | |
| − | :*Join other players in combat to fight in new zones and dungeons.
| + | '''Hotfix''' |
| − | :*Loot is distributed based on player slots; each player slot is one more roll for loot.
| |
| − | :*If a dungeon has 5 player slots and a monster is killed, it will drop 5 different instances of loot that are then distributed first to all players then in order of score.
| |
| − | :*For example, if 3 players kill a monster in a 5 person dungeon, all 3 will receive their slot's rolls, then the remaining 2 rolls will go to the top and second top scoring players, meaning the top and second top players get double drops whereas the lowest scoring player only gets normal drops.
| |
| − | :*Score formula will stay hidden for now, but it will take your participation level and your impact in the fight into account. Later on with abilities, healing etc. it will get more complicated.
| |
| − | :*You will only be able to party up with players from the same league. So you cannot be in same party with Ironmen players, if you are Default league character.
| |
| | | | |
| − | - Combat Mechanics -
| + | :* Castle doors fixed |
| | + | :* Fix some combat layering |
| | + | :* Group cosmetic changes are immediate |
| | + | :* Fix mugshots |
| | + | :* Allow negatives and decimals in input |
| | + | :* Hide tools if they're unused in loadouts |
| | + | :* Draggable action queue + using arrow key as keybinds |
| | + | :* Fix druidism description |
| | + | :* Step description as trigger string |
| | | | |
| − | :*Two "new" combat styles are available for the player to face, magic and range.
| + | '''Some Background Work''' |
| − | :*Abilities have been added to combat that can change how combat flows, such as modifying attack damage, speed, or even applying buffs/debuffs.
| |
| − | :*Added different hit splashes for each damage type
| |
| − | :*Players will get access to these (abilities, new combat styles) once Combat 2.0 Phase 2 releases. Some monsters have access to these in this patch.
| |
| | | | |
| − | - New Zone and Dungeons -
| + | C3.0 is coming along swimmingly. |
| | | | |
| − | :*Yes, they all have *at least one* unique drop.
| + | There are now ~130 monsters, 500+ equipment, 14 dungeons, and 8 base zones + their elite challenges. There's a base set of 60+ combat achievements (more incoming) and there's a plan to rewrite/add more combat quests. |
| − | :*Chaos Wastes: Free to enter; post-Valley of Giants zone designed for two players.
| |
| − | :*Goblin Village: Requires a consumable key; a lower level dungeon for 3 players
| |
| − | :*Black Knight's Fortress: Requires a consumable key; a mid level dungeon for 3 players
| |
| − | :*Giant's Keep: Requires a consumable key; a high level dungeon for 5 players
| |
| − | :*Keys come from thematically intuitive sources.
| |
| − | NOTE: Due to technical limitations (and not wanting to postpone the update for 1 month+ to fix it), you WILL LEAVE the group if you disconnect/refresh the game. You won't be able to join the party again if they are still in combat. So DO NOT refresh or change devices during party combat, as it will make you leave the party. We have a solution in mind for this to fix the issue, but as mentioned, it will take some time to implement.

| | | | |
| − | - New Enemies -
| + | Lots of work! |
| | | | |
| − | :*Yes :)

| − | - UI -
| |
| − | | |
| − | :*UI adjustments and background changes to various elements
| |
| − | :*Social Tab added where Hiscore was, contains Group, Friends, Blocked, and Hiscore tabs
| |
| − | :*Some of the features in there are still WIP, these will be implemented after this update. Didn't have the time to fit them in this update.
| |
| − | :*Combat UI is completely changed, characters make up a much larger focus
| |
| − | :*Group combat UI hides the inventory to allow all players to be visible during combat
| |
| − | :Stats, equipment, combat inventory, style selection are now toggleable panels

| − | - Settings -

| − | :*Force Full Health and Full Inventory may be enabled to make sure a player doesn't forget to heal or grab food before a dungeon
| |
| − | :*Setting added to control who are able to send you party invites
| |

| |

| − | | |
| − | - Other Changes -
| |
| − | | |
| − | :*Changes to "Crafting" enchant:
| |
| − | :From: Add all material costs and then reduce the cost due to the crafting enchant
| |
| − | :To: Reduce the cost due to the crafting enchant, round up, and then add together.
| |
| − | :Why: To prevent gaining "free" items. There will be more and more rare/unique crafting recipes where you require one or only a few of the resource to craft something, and this is something we wanted to prevent due to balancing reasons.
| |
| − | :Example:
| |
| − | :Before: Cost of making 9 Sapphire Necklaces: 396 Gold Bars, 8 Sapphires and 8 Gold Necklaces
| |
| − | :Now: Cost of making 9 Sapphire Necklaces 396 Gold Bars, 9 Sapphires and 9 Gold Necklaces
| |
| − | :*Increased all crafting experience received by approximately 20% across the board
| |
| − | :*Bunch of flavor texts added to various old and new items
| |
| − | :*Only showing public channels with messages within the last week
| |
| − | :*Fixed a bug of using commands in whisper causing a undefined tab to appear
| |
| − | :*Added support for monster dialogues in combat
| |
| − | :*Fixed the unfound image in /whois if equipping Naga's Bracelet
| |
| − | :*Added number formatting to offline progression messages
| |
| − | :*Added vendor values to all enchants, so those can be sold to NPC (if you want to)
| |
| − | :*Added a mod-configurable slowmode to trade chat to prevent flooding of messages

| | |- | | |- |
| | | colspan="3" | | | | colspan="3" | |
| − | So today's update was purely for the preparation for the upcoming Achievement update. All the data tracking required by it is now in the game, and this will allow us to fix the bugs related to that and also stress test the server, as it adds A LOT of extra load on the database server.
| + | '''hi''' |
| | | | |
| − | There were also a few other things which came together with it, by accident:
| + | :* correct pendants to not affect cooking prep |
| | + | :* fix cookie buff strength 1 -> 2 |
| | + | :* more consistent affix tooltip descriptions |
| | + | :* huge technical overhaul to how we render H A N D S (ty silent) in advance of new stuff |
| | | | |
| − | :*Able to link your full equipment in chat
| + | '''ok bye bye''' |

| |
| − | :*Probably some other stuff too which I forgot already

| | |- | | |- |
| | | colspan="3" | | | | colspan="3" | |
| − | Elite Challenges: Iteration 2, Electric Boogaloo
| + | '''hello''' |
| | | | |
| − | Big thanks to everyone for the feedback on the first iteration, we think we've cooked up something that'll be a little bit more engaging. Permanent TH buffs are awarded based on personal bests. For example, if you beat the Giants challenge at aug level 3 you get a permanent +3 TH in the Valley. This stacks with equipment TH, so if you have +6 TH then you'd end up with TH 9. Doing two level 3 aug challenge scrolls only results in +3 TH as it's based on personal best.
| + | Lots of polishing work by f1sh this week! Woohoo! |
| | | | |
| − | :*Scrolls now have stat and loot scaling multipliers! Every scroll aug will result in a stat multiplier of 1.1^level and +10% loot count. This loot multiplier is inherently different from TH, TH affects which items drop, loot multiplier affects how much of that item drop (this also affects rare uniques, like giant drops)!
| + | '''''UI Changes''''' |
| | | | |
| − | :*Drop rates have been altered, most things are more common to varying degrees and are more likely to drop in a greater number. | + | :* Enabled selling into a buy order with items exclusively in market listing |
| | + | :* Fix ordered queue ordering (augmenting/scrapping) |
| | + | :* Corrected the descriptions for a handful of affixes |
| | + | :* Fixed +25 achievement description |
| | | | |
| − | :*One new elite challenge: the Taproot Scroll. Wonder where that drops?
| + | '''''F1sh's Massive Click Overhaul''''' |
| | | | |
| − | :*New scroll assets that are definitely not just Nick's recolors | + | Aims to prevent accidental clicks for the most common cases. Primarily aiming to prevent accidental double clicks from having a difficult or impossible to reverse action, and aims to give the user time to recognize that new elements have appeared before they can interact with them. For example: |
| | | | |
| − | Some other changes include:
| + | :* Accidentally selling into a buy order as the order appears. |
| − | :*Updated Treasure Hunter tooltip | + | :* User never sees the "Offline Progress" dialog when logging in. |
| − | :*Updated Nimble tooltip and gave it a considerable buff.
| + | :* Users with motor impairments can accidentally close dialogs as they appear. |
| − | :*Able to link your opened chests (geodes, sunken treasures, bird's nests). When you open a chest, you will receive a popup and there will be a button to link it to chat
| + | :* User clicks "Start" on an action and believes the action is going, then clicks away. This could also be improved by creating contrasting button states (eg. green/blue vs red) that are easy to distinguish from a glance. |
| − | :*A popup for item transformation in augmenting
| + | :* Lag spikes causing user to attempt initiating actions or dialogs. |
| − | :*Transformed items will be taken out of the slot automagically | |
| − | :*Added augmentation amount when linking items in chat

| |

| |
| − | | colspan="3" |
| |
| − | Heyhey Idlescapers and Happy Easter!
| |
| − | Today we have somewhat larger update to introduce to you, which adds some content to the game and more interactivity. Lets get straight to the different features.
| |
| − | :Elite Challenges
| |
| − | Elite Challenges are a new feature introduced to some combat areas. Some monsters have a rare chance to drop their Elite Challenge scroll, which will give you access to a much harder monster with better loot.
| |
| − | These scrolls are also augmentable, which will increase the encounters in the Challenge and also give you better loot, by giving you higher Treasure Hunter boost on each skill.
| |
| − | When you complete the challenge, there will be a server-wide announcement if it was a new record. Default and Ironman characters will compete in their own records. Keep in mind, some of the challenges may be extremely hard, but really rewarding!
| |
| − | :Event Shop
| |
| − | In the Event Shop you will be able to spend your Event Tokens on various stuff. Right now they are some items from Christmas Event, and buffs. Those buffs work the exact same way as buffs received from cooking. So if you already have a cooking buff, buying the same kind of buff from the Shop will increase the stacks of that buff. Each purchasable buff will give you 3 stacks of the buff.
| |
| − | :Easter Hunt
| |
| − | This year's Easter Event will be quite small, as we wanted to spend our development time on actual permanent content rather than on seasonal events. But even if it is small, I'm glad how it turned out to be :)
| |
| − | In this event, you will have to find Easter Codes across the whole game (and other sites too, but everything is Idlescape related), and then enter those codes into the popup menu. The codes aren't single-use, so everyone will get the chance to use them once they find them. There are a total of 25 codes hidden, and the first three to find the code will have their name announced to the whole server. Entering a correct code will also reward you with 1000 Event Tokens.
| |
| − | :Other stuff:
| |
| − | :*Added filtering to Scrollcrafting UI. You will now be able to click what equipment slot you would like to craft a scroll to.
| |
| − | :*Fixed not getting enough cosmic and mind essences when applying enchants to items, when using Enlightenment buff
| |
| − | :*Offline time message in character menu more specific
| |
| − | :*Hopefully fixed some random disconnects
| |
| − | :*Added cape tag to Festive Shroud

| |
| − | |-
| |
| − | | colspan="3" |
| |
| − | Today the Christmas stuff got finally converted to Event Tokens, yay! If you have questions about the conversion or want to know more, I will include summary of that to the bottom of this post. But now to all the patch notes:
| |
| − | :*Removed Christmas category from crafting
| |
| − | :*Reverted the 72h offline timer back to 12 hours
| |
| − | :*Added a setting to hide /me messages
| |
| − | :*Fixed overflow issue with global buffs | |
| − | :*Improved moderator tools
| |
| − | :*Fixed being able to block and unblock the same user multiple times, without producing an error message
| |
| − | Some other backend changes, not sure if they were already on server or not :D
| |
| − | :CONVERSION
| |
| − | So, most of the Christmas resources got deleted from inventories, but the gear and some other stuff still remain and will stay in your inventories. The Snowglobe will be a "trophy" from the event and hopefully give you some flexing chances down the life of Idlescape!
| |
| − | Each player were given a rank based on their participation in the event. This was done by looking at the Christmas spirit amount in player's Snowglobes. We first intended to give players more Christmas Spirit when converting/deleting the items, but didn't make much sense anymore 2 months after the end of the event. So decided to stick with only Christmas Spirit and leave it intact.
| |
| − | Rank 1 player got 100k tokens, whereas the last ranked player received 10k tokens. The scaling between those amounts were linear. A total of 2227 characters participated in the Event (meaning their Christmas Spirit was more than 0).
| |
| | | | |
| − | The Event Tokens will be used as a currency in the future Event Shop update. Every new event will have items put to the shop after the event's end, and will be removed from there after some period. It will usually contain some event-specific stuff, but might also include different buffs etc. you can buy for yourself.
| + | All interactable elements have been evaluated for whether they should receive an initial delay upon the elements creation, a debounce delay for repeated interactions, or no delay. |
| − | If you have any more questions, feel free to ask me!

| − | Today's update was brought to you by Kugan 100% :)
| |
| | | | |
| − | :*Fixed not being able to send too long feedback forms | + | :* Most form elements, especially those with easily-reversible click effects (eg. checkboxes, text fields, etc...) do not receive a delay. |
| − | :*Fixed cooked food going into two different stacks
| + | :* All dialogs/modals/prompts now have a delay preventing closure before the user has time to register their fresh existence, and automatically propagates that delay to applicable child elements. |
| − | :*Fixed mod powers not working correctly in player-created chat rooms
| + | :* Some dialogs, such as achievements, level messages, and offline progression, receive a longer delay to give users more time to mentally register them. |
| − | :*Prevented donations which are under $3
| + | :* Actions with an effect, such as starting/stopping an action or donating gold, receive a debounce delay. |
| − | :*Fixed combat death animation
| + | :* Actions with a reversible effect, such as sorting or filtering, receive no delay. |

| − | :*Added link to Forums to the side menu bar

| − | :*Added volume slider to sound notifications

| |
| − | There will be another update tomorrow or the day after to prepare for the server transition happening this weekend, probably Sunday. Will give you all the proper date and time when this update launches, so either tomorrow or the day after.

| − | Heyhey,
| + | '''GROUP IRONMAN???''' |
| | | | |
| − | It has been a pretty long time with no updates to the game. I have been working a lot with fixing security issues and also ensuring the stability of the server. With today's update most of the server lags, items disappearing, ping rising etc. should be gone. I also managed to fix a few rare critical bugs which had been in Idlescape since day 1, so that is nice :D. Below is a short summary what happened in this update
| + | yes, 5 people |
| | | | |
| − | :*Server's database got changed to a completely new one
| + | '''what else''' |
| − | :*Fixed item's position changing in inventory if it starts with an emoji
| |
| − | :*Item tooltip's now appear on top of everything
| |
| − | :*Reworked and brought back offline progress message
| |
| − | :*Fixed a bug where people were unable to login to the game, related to renaming items
| |
| − | :*Added more descriptive timers to mutes and tradebans
| |
| − | :*Fixed "then" to "than" in marketplace sell info window :)))
| |
| − | :*Brought chat history back
| |
| − | :*Fixed marketplace "lag"
| |
| − | :*Brought an old easter egg back
| |
| − | :*Fixed players online and registered players on landing page
| |
| − | :*Fixed a bug of players not disconnecting after being offline 12 hours
| |
| − | :*10+ stability fixes to backend to ensure the server still functions under high loads
| |
| − | Now that these things are out of the way, next bigger update will be Ironman! Gonna start working on it now :)
| |
| | | | |
| − | P.S. please stop spreading false news or rumors about updates, resets etc. anywhere. It is just frustrating for everyone to handle.

| + | '''Sunsetting''' |
| | | | |
| − | This week's update will contain series of different bug fixes, quality of life stuff, and also some structural changes to backend to get ready for Ironman mode. Also the game's security has been massively increased during this and last week. | + | Hey everyone, Idlescape will be entering the sunsetting stage after this patch goes live. This means we'll stop accepting microtransaction purchases and move from active development to just maintenance. The game will continue running until our rented time expires on the last day of November. IS+ will be globally given to all players until the time expires and I will manually cancel further recurring payments for all existing subscriptions. |
| | | | |
| − | P.S. Next week will be Idlescape's Official 1st Anniversary! There will be something special happening each day of the week. I will update more on this during the weekend :)
| + | Working on Idlescape and playing with you all has made for an incredible last few years, but with growing time constraints IRL and the volunteer-style team backing the game it is no longer feasible to continue supporting the game as it is. A couple weeks ago we explored the option of pushing to 1.0 once legal hurdles had been handled, but the sheer amount of work we have to do with the little time we have to do it means this year+ indefinite pre-1.0 state would keep going. Not only this, but if we did push to 1.0, the workload would only increase. The scope of the game is just excessively large for a purely volunteer team to handle without burning out. |

| |
| − | :*Essence amount now turns green if over 10m, and blue if over 1b. Also modified their amount formatting
| |

| |
| − | Hellou!
| |
| | | | |
| − | On this week's update, you will see a lot of changes to crafting and augmenting. Every recipe in crafting was buffed in regards to resources required per experience. I won't be stating every recipe changes, but rough outline is this:
| + | That said, with the last legal hurdles (TL;DR IP Rights) handled, there are still several avenues for Idlescape to continue, even if only spiritually. The existing codebase and assets will continue to exist so that personal projects from the team may pop up; I (Nick) will probably start tinkering with a much more limited scope game using what I've learned and made over the last few years, but I don't expect to have something playable for a while. |
| | | | |
| − | :*Bronze 60% resource decrease
| + | The Discord will remain open and what we do is up to the community. I'm leaning towards keeping the main chat channels open and archiving the rest. I'm personally going to share whatever I'm up to there and to keep up with y'all and the team. |
| − | :*Iron 50% resource decrease
| |
| − | :*Mithril 35% resource decrease
| |
| − | :*Adamantite 20% resource decrease
| |
| − | :*Rune 10% resource decrease
| |
| − | :*Augmenting costs were also tuned to mirror changes to crafting recipes.
| |
| − | :*Experience received from crafting received a major buff also. For example, stygian and rune now gives 2x more experience than before, as where bronze is almost the same as it was.
| |
| | | | |
| − | With these changes I hope crafting and augmenting will become more relevant in the early stages of the game, and not stay as end-game content. These changes will also make playing the upcoming Ironmen more appealing.
| + | I will continue to restart the server to keep it running (mostly) smoothly, as well as push any patches that the CCs prepare. |
| | | | |
| − | I also added item's augment level and enchant to be visible on the item's icon. No need to hover over the item anymore to check its enchant or augment level.
| + | Who knows what the future holds, though? |
| | | | |
| − | Thank you for playing, see you in Idlescape! :)
