Uadjet: Hello, and welcome to the Developer's Q&A!
Uadjet: So, if you have any questions please step up to the lecterns in front of the stage.
Uadjet: If nobody has any, I'll start giving an update.
Uadjet: So, most recently Talad has been working on the Compendium.
Uadjet: If you haven't taken a good look at the compendium, please do so.
Uadjet: There's room for a lot of information there.
Uadjet: Creatures, plants, minerals, factions, locations, etc.
Uadjet: The map is, I believe, fully working.
Lytoza: I tried to add a 2nd note on the map but couldn't. Is only one allowed?
Resildren: i've added a bunch? if you mean the pins?
Uadjet: The pins? You can add more than one, I'm sure of it.
Resildren: i have over a dozen pinned
Lytoza: Yes.. a 2nd pin
Resildren: on the main map?
Thosor: the plant, minerals does nothing
Lytoza: yes.. the main map
Damola: Not sure I ever visited Kormia.
Damola: Yeah, nothing happens when clicking Ojaveda or Amdeneir or so.
Resildren: hum just tested on another amadier and can only have 2 pins, odd
Damola: Will there be a map editor? There is "Add a map" and custom.
Lytoza: I was able to add another pin just now though. >.>
Resildren: let me stand corrected i just added a 3rd to that map
Uadjet: It's the indented items that have (or will have) their own maps.
Damola: Ah, now I understand what "Add a location means".
Resildren: it's just a general pin not the exact placement
Uadjet: Yeah.
Uadjet: We've discussed having things like fixed resources adding themselves to the map.
Lytoza: Wonder if we'll ever see a marker where our character is on the map. Would be idea for marking herbs etc.
Uadjet: For example, mining at a specific location might add a pin to the map with the icon and text of that mineral. We'd probably want to have a toggle to show or not show things like that, or the map will get really cluttered.
Thosor: "you are here"
Anysu: Fixed resources added to map would be good.
Uadjet: Yeah, Talad does not want the map to function like a GPS. We have to bear that in mind when it comes to automatically-generated pins.
Uadjet: Doing the compendium entries means getting images for every entry, which has led Talad to do some more textured upgrades. Just today he redid the ore/ingot/stock textures. They're shiny, now.
Resildren: looked good on the stream
Uadjet: Oh, before I go any further, I should mention that I did alter the Lock-200 crate, if anyone wants to test it.
Uadjet: So, Talad has also done more work on dungeons, and we can now have multiple running at the same time.
Uadjet: This will allow us to have dungeons of different difficulty levels, so new players can have one that doesn't kill them immediately.
Uadjet: Talad also added a new special room for dungeons, as well as secret passageways that players can detect and open.
Damola: Multiple dungeons running at the same time? so when entering the same dungeon for each char a new dungeon is spawned? But then they do not see each other and can not cooperate? I do not yet understand how that is supposed to work
Uadjet: No, each portal has a dungeon assigned to it.
Uadjet: Multiple players can then be in the same dungeon.
Damola: Ah, so there would be more than one dungeon to choose from, okay.
Thosor: Can only open up to 100 with my teeth.
Uadjet: Okay, I changed lock 50 as well.
Damola: Just came to my mind: Yesterday Damola could have asked Thosor for one of his towels in order to dry up Gul.
Damola: Any other news?
Uadjet: Talad has also been working on the economy, and part of that is repeatable quests to assist different factions.
Uadjet: Resildren?
Anysu cheers about quests
Resildren: ok during the stream Talad mentioned that he had considered the new update for this weekend, but may choose to do it sometime this week, is this true?
Uadjet: The repeatable quests could be about providing tria, but I think it's more likely you'll be needing to gather resources, like metal, or plants, or stone.
Uadjet: Ah yeah, the masonry skill was mentioned.
Uadjet: Oh, a new release will be coming soon.
Uadjet: Talad wanted to get it released Saturday morning, but it wasn't quite ready yet.
Resildren: yes the unreal update
Damola: Nice. I am looking forward to all the chat related fixes.
Uadjet: It shouldn't take long, unless he finds something else he just really wants to get into the update.
Thosor: scrolling, etc?
Thosor: oh, and the petero!
Anysu: hmmm if it's next Sat I may miss event. I work that day so I'd be late anyway. Getting downloaded new version that same day will probably delay me.
Resildren: he did a nice touch up on the ptero today,
Resildren: the other question has to do with harvesting
Damola: We get old nice Ptero back?
Damola: Cute large nice cuddly Ptero that Damola loves so much?
Thosor: Big wings
Thosor: tall ones
Anysu cheers for ptero
Uadjet: Yes, we're going to be getting the old wings back, more or less.
Thosor: Resildren?
Resildren: yes?
Thosor: didn't you have loss of mouse/gui in combat yesterday?
Damola: Nice.
Damola: Uadjet, you know what that means, do you? You know what that means.
Uadjet: Oh, with a bow?
Uadjet: I tried to replicate that and couldn't.
Damola: "Nice " was referring to Ptero.
Resildren: ahh yes but from what i understand it's a known, when i use the bow and target all works fine till i try to untargeet and I'm stuck in the pre tatget sequence? just this make sense?
Thosor: It is hard to reproduce, but with any weapon, I believe.
Damola: Uadjet, once we have nicely winged Pterosaur's back, you absolutely need to do another Ptero related event, Uadjet.
Damola begs Uadjet.
Thosor: Happened during an event too, with Anysu and I
Damola: Pretty please!
Damola grins
Uadjet: Once we can get pteros that players can ride, I will!
Thosor: Yes it was fun to hijack a ptero or two during that event.
Damola: Oh, we currently have not, Uadjet? I think you explained something about that.
Thosor: Hide them till later.
Uadjet: Let's see...
Anysu: ptero event!
>Anysu grins impishly.
Uadjet: Okay, now how is it you're trying to untarget the ulbernaut?
Damola: Ah, there he is.
Resildren glance to the ceiling and smirks
Damola: Ulbernaut in the house.
Resildren: ok let me load up
Ulbernaut: ROAARR!
Resildren: iwell now it works
>Ulbernaut yells for Resildren to flee!
Ulbernaut: I failed to move, will teleport in 5 sec.
Damola: Anyway, thanks for all the updates? And Anysu? as far as I understood, maybe Talad would do the update somewhen during the week.
Anysu: Did it poof
>Uadjet has left PlaneShift
Thosor: Yes is getting late
Damola: Then you could update already and have newest client on Saturday.
>Uadjet just joined PlaneShift
Anysu: That would help Damola.
Damola: Just keep an eye out for it, Anysu.
Anysu: Doing it on event days seems off.
Damola: Welcome back Uadjet.
>Anysu nods at Damola.
Uadjet: Well, it happened to me that time. Combat mode would not disengate, and I couldn't interact with the GUi.
Uadjet: I had to relog.
Thosor: Yes, to those sighning on just before event
Damola: Well maybe someone on Discord could ask Talad to release during week already, if possible
Damola: Okay? have a nice time.
Damola: Thanks for all the updates Uadjet.
>Damola waves.
>Anysu waves at Damola
Resildren: so it's good that you saw the issue
Resildren: i do have one last question
Resildren: is the purple Orchid in the game or was it renamed?
Resildren: i think it used to be black berries or something?
Resildren: but it seems very alusive?
Anysu: Much that use to be harvested in Legacy seems elusive here..
Resildren nods
Uadjet: Yeah, I'm having trouble finding harvesting spots too.
Resildren: going crazy running the maps looking
Uadjet: I've tried teleporting to the right coordinates, but couldn't find anything.
Lytoza: Purple Orchid is the new name for Blackbush.
Uadjet: Purple Orchids used to be blackbush.
Resildren: perhaps they are under the ground?
Uadjet: I tried turning off gravity and sliding underground. I'm seeing nothing.
Resildren: well if anyone finds them i'l give them some gobo salve, but i need it to make it
Anysu: Thanks for updates.
Anysu: I'm going to do some lockpicking practice here
Resildren: yes thanks uadjet
Anysu: 50 more to rank up
Thosor: thanks, Uajet
Uadjet: I'll see what I can find, but there's something wrong with the plants.
Uadjet: And note to self: Don't set trap strength to 200. That's what caused the crash earlier. My client went down the instant I hit save, too.
Uadjet: Any other questions?
Anysu: None from me.
Lytoza: None from me and thanks!
Uadjet: Ahh, exploding players. Always fun.
Uadjet: Okay, have fun playing and I'll see you again in three weeks at the next Q&A!
Gonger: Good night! Remember to leave the room before quitting.
