| − | == April ==
| |
| − | '''30th'''
| |
| − | *If you are renting a room from, for example, the Five Fingers Inn, you can use #lock and #unlock to bar the door. Anyone inside can #unlock it to prevent being trapped inside.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''29th'''
| |
| − | *[[Headbutt]] changed around a little bit to be more interesting. Now a fairly heavy hitter with moderate charge and some nice knockdown and a chance for some <i>great</i> knockdown.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''28th'''
| |
| − | *The price on true [[Supernatural Registration]]s has been dropped to 450 mako.
| |
| − | *[[Sucker Grip]] coded. It's a special adaption!
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''26th'''
| |
| − | *[[Soothing Balm]] created to give newbies some new gear.
| |
| − | *[[Training - Medicine]] and [[Training - Effectiveness]] created to give you more gear options!
| |
| − | *Going forward, there are now three tiers of supernatural registration
| |
| − | **300 mako will get you a [[Special Training Registration]], just like always. No form is connected to it. This would match [[Gemini Cyborg]], or [[Survivalist Leader]].
| |
| − | **400 mako buys a [[Racial Registration]], which has a form, but is still scientific, such as [[Cow Maiden]].
| |
| − | **800 mako is required for a true [[Supernatural Registration]]. This has a form, and can be something explicitly magical, such as the [[Tanuki]], [[Solar Dragon]], or [[Phoenix]] dedications.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''24th'''
| |
| − | *New in the Elite Shop: [[Private Forum]], allowing you to set up a section of the [http://web.flexiblesurvival.com/index.php forums] for you to run.
| |
| − | *[[Friendly Bandoleer]] and [[Hostile Bandoleer]] added to the Survivalist shop. These allow the use of one expendable item in auto-combat.
| |
| − | **And also debugged so they work properly.
| |
| − | **Said debugging also resulted in [[Throwing Knives]] dealing more damage.
| |
| − | *Damaged softly churrs, "When trying to spend mako and you don't have enough, if you have a credit card on file, it will ask you if you wish to donate from that card to get enough mako to pay for the thing ($5 minimum)"
| |
| − | *[[Pack Leader_(dedication)|Pack Leaders]] gained an active power [[Pack Leadership]] to keep their minions energetic.
| |
| − | *The Eastern Highway of Fairhaven has another exit ramp.
| |
| − | *[[Long Burning]] distill less terrible.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''23rd'''
| |
| − | *[[Fire Dance]] self-damage increased to match up with players having been given more HP some time back.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''22nd'''
| |
| − | *[[Engulf]] coded. Sticky!
| |
| − | *AI lines set with powers you do not currently have will be ignored instead of tossing errors.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''21st'''
| |
| − | *The [[Pack Leader (dedication)|Pack Leader]] dedication has arrived! Truly, this is a joyous day.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''20th'''
| |
| − | *+glance now tells you if there's a source in the room.
| |
| − | *You can now epic powers from the web interface! Hooray, modern convenience!
| |
| − | *[[Prospector]] and [[Conservative Miner]] perks added.
| |
| − | *[[Feesh]] got a little smarter. Sure spends a lot of time in school for such a lonely creature.
| |
| − | *Pets summoned by monsters will have Pet: in front of their names, and not numbers, making targeting the parent infinitely easier.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''19th'''
| |
| − | *Dropping a mako item will ask a second time if you are REALLY sure.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''18th'''
| |
| − | *The ten-second minimum for autocombat rounds is being fiddled with. It is at 4 seconds at the time of this writing.
| |
| − | *Action buttons will be hidden when it is not your turn on web combat. No more bait-and-switch buttons!
| |
| − | *Salvage status, both generic and specific like ChemicalSalvage, no longer has a cap. Unfortunately it is a percentage modifier on your base salvage chance, ending up much smaller.
| |
| − | **[[Clever Paws]] updated to be useful with the new salvage numbers. And now it increases the nanite vials you get too!
| |
| − | *Assorted [[Mechanical Source|sources]] of salvage can be dropped into rooms to reward roleplaying with salvage.
| |
| − | *Avatar will announce RP XP ticks in the tick channel. Tick ON!
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''17th'''
| |
| − | *Expansion backpacks make change. If you have enough items to activate your [[Small Nanopack]] but not your [[Large Nanopack|large]] one, the latter won't drain your battery that day. [[Duct Tape Backpack]] will always be checked last, alas.
| |
| − | *[[Extravagant Implement]] recipe coded. Like the last one, this is a private recipe. Seek out the Mechanist's Guild!
| |
| − | **You can tell because private recipes will show the owner's group in rpinfo.
| |
| − | *Auto combat rounds can run no faster than 10 seconds per round. Apparently this will speed up the game.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''16th'''
| |
| − | *Betraying powers, like [[Fire Dance]], ignore resistances. They should simply do the level-scaled damage to you.
| |
| − | *[[Protein Shield]] rebalanced. In short, it takes more effort the more you are spraying, and the CritHPBuffer means something.
| |
| − | *[[Child Trainer]] added to the elite stores.
| |
| − | *[[Unshielded Prototype]] recipe created. It is private. Aw.
| |
| − | **+rpinfo now tells you if a recipe is private!
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''15th'''
| |
| − | *[[Cleansing]] distillation cleans more, to match other passive Debuffclear effects.
| |
| − | *Sati softly churrs, "Non Roo/Child, pet summons are limited to 4 simultaneously. This includes equipment, and power/dedication summons should they come down the line. This was done to limit the effect of Mastermind to something controllable, and also allowed a dedication to get made, and was done under my request. I'm not certain anyone is using more than four so it shouldn't really affect anyone."
| |
| − | *Your relative size to a target appears when you are looking at them, right before describing their skin. Everyone is so tiny! What is going on?
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''14th'''
| |
| − | *Almost all recipe modifiers (in fact, all but cool/protective/amplifying) got their ally status durations doubled. You don't have to spam that banner nearly as often now!
| |
| − | **As a result, the energy cost of [[Banner]] and [[Amplifier]] went up significantly.
| |
| − | *Passive effects of most distills moved upwards, as well.
| |
| − | *Group founders can now set themselves to whatever rank they want. They remain leaders. Everyone else needs to be set 'leader' to attain that power though.
| |
| − | *You can now use % to act as 'modulus' in string parsing, much like the other (+-*/) operands.
| |
| − | *Time for some +reward overhauls!
| |
| − | **+10% bonus XP is now +25% bonus XP!
| |
| − | **That annoying +reward that upgraded items? GONE.
| |
| − | **Got a mako battery recharge? Have a battery, too!
| |
| − | *The [[Cred Energy Rejuvinator]] got discounted, from 5 mako down to 2.
| |
| − | *[[Blood Extractor]] coded, and put in the token shop.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''12th'''
| |
| − | *Newbie items are now handed out at level 20, so they'll be useful until you can start getting your feet wet with crafting.
| |
| − | *Children and Roo pets no longer show up for upgrading on the web page. They're going to go hungry. :<
| |
| − | *Minor creature creator tweaks:
| |
| − | **The sayverb boxes are now large enough to see what you're writing
| |
| − | **There is a box to specify size. Remember that 5 is human-sized, and the scale is not in feet. Really.
| |
| − | *You now see victories again when mentored up or down. You can once again experience joy while seriously overpowering level 5 skunk girls.
| |
| − | *Ranger role added. Health, Penetration, and Roll with It!
| |
| − | *Commissar role added. Tactician, Rage, and Avoidance. Also heresy.
| |
| − | *Pregnancy Simulators, in [[Light Pregnancy Simulator|light]], [[Medium Pregnancy Simulator|medium]], and [[Heavy Pregnancy Simulator|heavy]] versions, added to the elite store for 15 mako apiece.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''11th'''
| |
| − | *Nuku carols, "DoTs from player sources cannot cause infections"
| |
| − | *Pages sent to another player will have timestamps. Your 'page #last' will be easier to read.
| |
| − | *[[Kitsune]] Now has Victory messages! (Perhaps we should start worrying about them now...)
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''10th'''
| |
| − | *Web combat has a Refresh button, in case it appears to have stalled.
| |
| − | *[[Roll With It]] and [[Tar Baby]] have a diminishing chance to activate with hits smaller than the threshold. Much more likely to happen in ordinary combat.
| |
| − | *Training resources now cost the same on the web and in direct control.
| |
| − | *[[Damage]] combat skill will decrease the amount of damage lost when something evades your attacks.
| |
| − | *Web salvage missions now tend to not be quite so long.
| |
| − | *A new status, Vampiric! Gives all your direct damage powers a (magnitude)% vampiric effect.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''9th'''
| |
| − | *No more Easter eggs! Existing ones still work, so crack 'em open.
| |
| − | *The various salvage-boosting items, like [[Cooler]], slotted. You can only prefer one kind of salvage at a time.
| |
| − | *Web combat has a longer attention span. You won't fall automated if you don't click a button within ten seconds.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''8th'''
| |
| − | *Happy Easter! Monsters are now dropping Easter Eggs. Open them up for a surprise!
| |
| − | **Bunny and rabbit enemies are more likely to drop eggs.
| |
| − | **Zombies are not likely to drop them, being too stupid to remember to find any.
| |
| − | **Eggs are also available for 1 mako apiece in the elite store, if you are a silly person.
| |
| − | *The inventory section of the web interface has been completely remodeled!
| |
| − | *The follow code (the stuff you use hopon and handup to use) now defaults to the 'walk' option, instead of the 'ride' option.
| |
| − | **Want to write your own follow text? Type 'ride #help2' to get started!
| |
| − | *Web salvage missions now only use one patrol point at a time, but require twice as many patrols.
| |
| − | *[[Invasive Procedure]] coded.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''7th'''
| |
| − | *The [[Survival]] skill now reduces environmental penalties by 10% per point.
| |
| − | *Did you know that energymod abilities, but positive and negative, were twice as powerful in combat? Well, if you didn't, now you know why [[Rest]] isn't going as far as you thought it should.
| |
| − | *The military base is now stamped as High Danger, which means people will come to your aid in web battles there.
| |
| − | *New holiday form, just under the wire! [[Marshmallow Chicken]] is available for a limited time.
| |
| − | **This form has both [[Smooth Hide]] and [[Expansiveness]], by the way.
| |
| − | **Peep!
| |
| − | *[[Expansiveness]] brought in line with other AoE abilities; now twice as nice!
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''6th'''
| |
| − | *[[Tanuki]]s (either active, or inactive with the [[Golden Leaf]]) can now make use of the [[Nanite Spatial Recalculator]]. The function is identical as when a [[Nanite Adept]] uses it.
| |
| − | *Caber Tosser role added, possessing Controlled Burst, Endurance, and Tactician.
| |
| − | *[[Gemini Cyborg]], a new dedication in progress, has been coded. Expect to hear more from it soon!
| |
| − | **Beep!
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''5th'''
| |

| |
| − | **[[King Cobra]] now has the [[Myriad Armor]] ability, by the way.
| |
| − | *[[Conductive]] and [[Solid Frame]] are a little stronger now, to bring them up to speed with the other discounts to energy powers.
| |
| − | *[[Sharpshooter]] now has an energy upgrade, so it's not quite so tiring.
| |
| − | *Powerthirst was renamed to [[Ultraquench]]. Curse you, copyright law!
| |
| − | *You're now a little more likely to find builder nanites after a fight when not equipped with a collector.
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''4th'''
| |
| − | *[[Least EN]] AI block added to RSX's store.
| |
| − | *[[Busty Succubus]] and [[Raised Pharaoh]] don't spawn zombies due to lag issues. Just like old times!
| |
| − | *[[Durability]], [[Avoidance]] and [[Health]] combat skills reduce the size of direct heals you apply by 3% per point. Makes non-tank support more useful.
| |
| − | *The +census master command will list what people have chosen to make epic.
| |
| − | *Energy recovery outside battle is doubled. Less annoying downtime.
| |
| − | *Fengrove Hills and Fengrove Caves opened to the public! Look for them on the Fairhaven overworld, near the corn maze.
| |
| − | **The hills contain [[Ogre]]s, [[King Cobra]]s, and [[Fox Taur]]s!
| |
| − | **The caves contain (deep breath) [[Blade Beast]], Dark Elves in both [[Dark Elf Male|Male]] and [[Dark Elf Female|Female]] flavors, and both Orthom [[Orthom Ovaped|Ovapeds]] and [[Orthom Brute|Brutes]]!
| |
| − | ***That's right! I hope you're after a lot of fun new forms!
| |
| − | | |
| − | '''3rd'''
| |
| − | *Damaged softly churrs, "Added [if status (status name) of (target) (>/</=/!=) (number)] and [status (status name) of (target)] to string parsing"
| |

| |
| − | | |
| − | == March ==
| |
| − | '''31st'''

| − | *Hinoserm found some memory leaks, and patched them.
| |

| |
| − | *Secret April Surprise added. Shh.
| |

| − | | |
| − | '''30th'''

| − | *[[Infuse Blood]] buffed, [[Bloodletting]] tweaked to hopefully not totally kill everyone who uses it.

| − | *String parsing can now make comparisons using 'is'. For example, [if Damaged is [player]].

For example, [if infection Fox Boy of [player] > 5] will return true if you have at least five body parts that are Fox Boy.
