Original article
Let's look through the Patch list for the weeks of 11/02/2020 and 18/02/2020 to see what updates, changes, and fixes have been made by the Developers, and what they mean for you.
Please note, the updates and bugs documented in this article are worked on by a team of developers. Where a single developer is individually mentioned, it simply reflects who confirmed the report as fixed or complete, and not that they were solely responsible.
Updates, Changes, and Additions
- Added 10 member requirement for declaring a raid.
- Added option to cease a raid after 24 hours if the opponent faction has fewer than 10 members.
These changes were made after a report from ProtonStrike. In order to declare a Raid, factions must now have at least 10 members to do so. Furthermore, if the raiding faction drops below 10 members at any point after the first 24 hours of the raid, the opposing faction will have the ability to cease.
- Added events for all faction members in the event of wars starting or ending.
Territory war events for starting and ending have been added by Kopites for all faction members after a report by Tipsy.
- Added 'War hits', 'Bonus hits' and 'Average respect' to chain report table.
After a report by Jox, chain reports will now display the number of war hits, bonus hits, and average respect. In order to free up some space, Chedburn decided to remove the column for level. Kopites confirmed that this had been done.
- Added tooltips for personal stats for the mobile/tablet screen views.
In this report by Lugburz, it was suggested that adding a tooltip to personal stat titles would prevent some of them being truncated when there is not enough space. While everything should already be comprehensible with the shortened names on mobile and tablet views, Chedburn agreed to have tooltips added for when the stat title is tapped on, allowing the user to view the full stat title. This change was confirmed by nikitad.
- Added auto-leave when defeating a target and then being jailed (I.e. via organised crime).
This addition was made by aurel1 after a report by Ahab.
- Added quality rating value for unique items to Trades.
The quality rating has been made visible in Trades after a report by _Scofield_. This was confirmed to have been fixed by Xepa4ep.
- Changed Duke's life from 1.5m to 3.5m and Leslie's life from 800k to 2m.
The life of both Duke and Leslie has been raised following reports that NPC takedowns were being completed too quickly. Shortened fights had become commonplace following a previous fix to an issue whereby the number of attacks upon NPCs was not being correctly recorded, meaning fights were twice as long as they should have been. However, given that the community had gotten used to fights of this length, it was decided to increase the NPCs' lives to restore the previous duration of an NPC takedown.
- Changed Valentine's Day Love Juice event to also reduce reviving costs by -15 energy
After being suggested by -Yeti, Love Juice was changed to also reduce revive costs by 15 energy.
- Changed trade 'Accept' / 'Decline' button positions on Trade to be more intuitive.
- Changed 'Locked trade' message to reference declining a trade to unlock it.
After a suggestion from Rob_Snow, the Accept and Decline buttons have been swapped with each other. Furthermore, the "Locked trade" message will now mention that unlocking a trade can be achieved by declining it.
- Improved in-game client performance for large group attacks.
Large group attacks have received some optimisation by improving the performance of the in-game client.
- Added visual trade logs / comments to completed trades and increased pruning intervals of old trades.
This was implemented after a suggestion from Demented to be able to see the comments made during a trade after it had already been completed. In addition to this, the time in which older logs are deleted for has been extended so that they are kept for longer.
- Added the ability to cease a raid as loser if it's inactive for more than 72 hours (instead of automatic finish).
Once a Raid has been inactive for more than 72 hours, either faction will now have the ability to cease as loser instead of being finished automatically.
- Updated credits page to include the newer full-time developers.
The Credits page has been updated to include newer Developers hired within the past year or so.
