The Armory Update is LIVE

As chosen by the Update Poll, the first part of the Armory Update is up! It features both new weapons and armor, and a ton of improvements to them and other systems! Don't even read the rest, re-create your world and go find all the new shiny stuff that's been added!

Changelog

• New Weapons!

  • Sword type: Katana! Sharp, but fragile. Elegantly deadly!

  • Halberd type: Naginata! The most badass home-defense weapon of the eastern region!

  • Mace type: Club! The classic/ancient beat stick, the ungaest of weapons!

  • Flail type: Whip! Long, light, much less lethal, but very, very painful...

  • Greatsword type: Claymore! So beautiful, thin and long...

  • Staff type: Twinblades! Surely a historical fact, these deadly oars are as deadly as they are cool!

• New Heavy Armor, fan-contributions by MisterWraith!

  • The Northern 4-piece Armor set! What a viking would wear if they used metal armor!

  • Western Breastplate, Bracers and Cuissards! These complete the "Western" Heavy Armor set, together with the pointy helmet the Deserter starts with!

• New Hats!

  • Hood: The classic medieval hood! Cool mantle included!

  • Bycocket: Robin Hood's hat! Stylish feather included!

  • Kasa: The traditional asian conical hat!

• Updating the starting classes' equipment to use some of the new Items!

• Equipment generated for NPCs now follows their regional style! Not all styles are in, but you can see the difference it makes, especially for their clothes!

• Made Equipment Item "Style" variables more consistent

• Slightly optimized the code for equipping items, specially armor

• Fixed the broken code for the rotation of Flails, replacing it with a less good but at least functional version. To be improved later, possibly with real physics

• Renamed several clothes in the files, to actually organize them in a manageable manner. This can cause some Items in old worlds to turn invisible, but is a necessary step in implementing more of them. This is probably the last time a change like this will have to be made, at least for clothes

• Updated the Godot engine to version 4.6.2

• Added grates to Wells for safety and compliance to engineering standards (this is a lie)

• Barrier-Projectile Spells now shoot the previous ones on recast

• Better check for dousing Burning while in water

• Better formula for Courage Checks for characters, so the level difference doesn't matter so excessively

• Better pairing of Seed and Log drops from harvesting Trees

• Better setting of Next-Level XP for when you're killed while at max level

• If you create a Faction of a type you're already in, you now Betray that Faction

• Improved the damage/effect formulas and tick rate for all Boss Ultimate abilities

• Increased the Defense and Durability of Stone Tile Decorations

• Made the base of Ruins props taller

• Made the head props inside the Pyramid Dungeon smaller to avoid covering levers

• Monsters that're being ridden no longer show their status label above their heads

• More than one Boss can spawn at a time in the overworld based on how many ????? ????? fell

• NPCs that are hit with Ailments that force movements and animations no longer have those replaced by interaction ones (eg Dance and Surrendering)

• Ooze's acid spill no longer spawns under the ground, and has weird AABB fopr its particles=

• Renamed the Masterwork suffix for Items to Artisanal, to avoid confusion with its effect (only making the Item more expensive)

• Roamers, like Nomads, no longer set up camp in places filled with Monsters or Traps

• Slightly better code for checking if a Delivery from a Quest was made when closing Items-based menus

• Transforming while riding
