V0.9.2.2 Patch Notes
Gameplay Adjustments
Increased NPC tolerance levels during server errors to reduce quick game-overs during spotty or temporary server blips. - Replaced the NPCs' placeholder lines to reflect when the server is unavailable or unstable. Check the new server status if the NPCs repeat these lines:
🔪 Catgirl:“Oh no, I trailed off into a daydream. I was just picturing us together forever. Now, what were we chatting about?”🔮 Witchy: “Pardon me, my mind was wandering through the Astral Plane. What matter were we discussing?” ⚡ Hologram: “My apologies, my star. I was occupied by a massive data stream. Could you repeat what you were saying?” 🌊 Siren: “Ah, the tides pulled my thoughts away for a moment. What were you saying before I drifted off?”
Added a failover backup system to stabilize in-game NPC responses.
(Note: The classic lines below still exist to distinguish from errors unrelated to server outages/blips. As always, please email support@alterstaff.io with gameplay examples if you suspect an error is taking place.)
🔪 Catgirl:“Don't say that, that makes me embarrassed!”
🔮 Witchy:“Oh dear! Don't say such things, my mischievous little pudding!”
⚡ Hologram:“Please don't say that, as it is against the station's regulations.”
🌊 Siren:“Watch your tongue, you puny human!”
