Bits and Pieces

Wednesday, June 2nd, 2010

I’ve mostly been unpacking and working on the Survivors’ Quest, but I’ve also snuck out a few changes. Nothing too major, but wanted to make sure they didn’t get lost down the memory hole.

  • If you have a Christmas Tree up, your ornaments are visible from your profile. Thanks to Al for finally prodding me into implementing it.
  • Rankings (Fishing, Chess) should now be reset properly by the beta reset. Good catch, Xerf!
  • Maxwell’s rewards should be working properly. Thanks for the bug reports, Al and Argeth!
  • Exclusive buffs like music and fishing lures should display a little more cleanly. Good call, GoldS.
  • I added some more interactions with the Slags Medical Files. Thanks for the suggestions, Llamaman.
  • As mentioned on the podcast, added two new avatars.
  • And a big “thank you!” to Mag, Borkman, Vholes Piper, Nyther, Cryptodynamic, and Glass for reporting typos.

Cheers!

  • Added some mushroom related goodies. Thanks for the inspiration RazielSonofKain!
  • Gang messages now have a ‘Send to All’ feature from the gang screen. Good suggestion, Glass!
  • Made fishing start working again after the update. Thanks to Sir Cheddar and Cryptodynamic!
  • High Test line encounters should properly grant XP and give continue on options. Thanks Sir Cheddar!
  • The Ghoul King should now correctly report the number of favors he owes you. Thanks, Neongrey!
  • Corrected a bug where certain sushi wasn’t working properly. Thanks Al and GoldS for the bug report!
  • Also corrected a load of typos thanks to GoldS, Glass, Ricket, RazielSonofKain, Sir Cheddar, and Mag. Especially Mag.

Cheers!

Post-Quest Updates

Tuesday, May 11th, 2010

So I got a little stuff done last night while waiting for folks to test out the quest and wanted to mention the updates here.

  • Rewrote a lot of crafting, like a lot of crafting, which will make it a lot easier for me to add new recipes in the future. And paves the way for remembering experimental recipes between resets.
  • As an upshot of that, most recipe results are now clickable for the item description. Thanks to GoldS for the suggestion and Glass for helping me get everything working.
  • I also reworked how curatives (which is to say things that remove effects, like Slags Antidote or the Street Doc) work, which should have them working more consistently. There weren’t many visible changes, and most of them good, but I won’t promise anything.
  • Fixed up a lot of little things and a few big things with the new quest thanks to Cryptodynamic, Argeth, Goferchan, Happy Yeti, and GoldS.
  • Messages past their timeout won’t be deleted on the pageload you’re trying to save them. Sorry about that Shademaster00, but thanks for the bug report.
  • The new capitalization change in the account preferences page should be working properly. Thanks Sir Cheddar!
  • Having the id equipped wasn’t allowing folks into the Slags Lab for a while. That should be working properly now. Thanks for the report Cryptodynamic!
  • Also, we’ve got a great round of new content typos from Cryptodynamic, RazielSonofKain, Argeth, Borkman, Mag, and Sir Cheddar! Thanks, everyone!

Cheers!

Updates, get yer Updates!

Wednesday, May 5th, 2010

Have a nice list of updates here, mostly changes with a couple of bug fixes.

  • Unified the handling of “Continue On”/”Back to the Streets”/etc. as buttons for consistency and help with scripting. Thanks for the suggestion, Xerf!
  • Updated the donations page to reflect me having a job (yay!) and information about beta reset/Zack. Thanks for pointing that out, Glass!
  • Per the podcast, the Fang Boss in the Docks quest stops using Explosive Shot when he runs out of clips. Good call, Al.
  • Renamed options taking you back to the main Net screen “logout” to clarify the difference between them and “Unplug.” This is another good suggestion from Xerf. Thanks!
  • Resolved an issue preventing folks from getting the ghoultouched skill. Thanks for the bug report Szodrin and welcome back :)
  • Also fixed up some typos thanks to Cryptodynamic, Vholes Piper, Glass, and Mag.

Cheers!

Interface Updates

Friday, December 4th, 2009

We have some interface updates and an interesting bug fix today.

  • Entering chat will now automatically /who for your primary (oldest active) channel. Thanks for the suggestion, Wyrd.
  • Net targets found in searches will now have their names appear as links, saving the need to search through the list for a new site. Good suggestion Harrakan.
  • All clickable or hoverable text in the game should now give a distinct cursor to separate it from all that boring old readable text. Thanks to Wyrd and Al for this one.
  • Resolved an interesting bug where skill bonuses where being double (or, you know, octuple) counted. Thanks to DerMagus and Amasius for reporting it!
  • We’ve also got a parcel of typo fixes from Argeth, Wyrd, Caradal, Mag, and Glass. Thanks!

Cheers!
