Beta 0.22.5 - Tech Debt? What's That?

April 30, 2025	Beta 0.22.5	ExpandTech Debt? What's That?
Changes to the Login System requires you to login again, this is normal This Update is mostly technical stuff. Game Changes Remove market warning for renaming unnamed items Added the Wiki Madness 2 reward icons Technical Changes Completely overhauled the login/authentication system to be more consistent. This will allow much better support for logging in across multiple devices and sources, i.e. different web browsers, mobile devices, Steam, apps, etc. Cleaned up thousands of lines of really old, messy code. Updated our email system, hopefully improving the lost email problems. Added a lot more optimizations to various interactions, potentially increasing server performance by a good amount. This should be most noticeable during times of high load, i.e. catch-up or Madness. Lots of misc. package clean up. There will almost certainly be bugs, please make sure to report them! I am tired of technical stuff and I will focus on gameplay changes for a bit.

Beta 0.22.4 - Oops, all WIP

April 19, 2025	Beta 0.22.4	ExpandOops, all WIP
This is mostly just to reboot the server, but I may as well push out a few of the minor changes we've made so far. This update's changes New Glass Ranger asset Elite Scrolls increase mob counts per wave when difficulty is increased high enough (check tooltips) Can only set referral codes within a week of account creation Mantis Shrimp equipment now also requires mystical driftwood More Details on WIP Stuff Currently entirely rewriting the login system entirely to make it more robust and better at handling multi-platforms. This is primarily a technical task, but it should also improve the logging in experience immensely for people who play on multiple devices (i.e. mobile, steam, etc.) Lots of improvements to Skilling/Production that should smooth out pain-points and make gameplay more consistent and enjoyable. Includes several reworks as well as more content! So many technical updates. Just an absolute mess of them. Each one takes about a week just to get started, a week to fix obvious issues, and then a week of fixing edge cases, and that's just the optimal timeline. "Combat 3.0"; taking a huge look at the current state of combat and all the features that have been slowly added and reconsidering everything. This is very early (still design notes phase), but the basic goals are to make every combat style feel AND sub-style unique and viable (even in non-optimal zones) as well as ensuring all the recent combat mechanics and features are available throughout the progression instead of only properly existing in the content it was introduced with.

March 27, 2025	Beta 0.22.2	ExpandMostly Fixes

Beta 0.22.1 - Magic Magic

March 20, 2025	Beta 0.22.1	ExpandMagic Magic
UI Some cooking text should shift around less Highlight currently active node in tooltip Share button in quest completion popup Fixed a couple enchantment icons Format expected damage in ability tooltips Format hit multipliers Format quest XP Format item turn in amount Live updated fishing chances in UI Fix item rename dialog Balance Chaos Rends now have slashing affinities Chaos Crest is rarer from demons, but now added to Smithing dungeon tables Fixes Fix some inadvertant drops that are kinda spoopy Deep Pit now counts for mining set quest Clothweaving counts for Runecrafting set quest again AI Placeholder Stuff I replaced a lot of the more egregious placeholder assets for monsters with slightly less unsightly/memey images from one of the newer models that came out recently. These are still placeholders. Since IS isn't some AAA company or has a ton of funding everyone from devs to artists kind of do things as they have the time, and art can take a long time to do. We intend to replace the assets with properly handdrawn pieces when possible, but in the meantime the generated images help communicate what we had in mind for the actual appearance of the monsters.
