Iron Legacy changes
Sooooo :) It has been a while :) In my agile opinion :D I am glad the discord works, and you write suggestions and give feedback about bugs :) This is great :) I appreciate it, and I would like you to keep this going :) It really helps me.
I was encouraging myself to finally redesign the rest of the windows into a single component that uses the new design. I have also solved the semi-broken arena (fake map over 0,0 coords in the middle of the map, steel town coincidentally... = you could walk into steel town and you could suddenly see the players in the arena and they could see you, but they were in the arena and you were just standing in the steel town ...)
I have also redesigned the legacy rebirth process, you no longer lose your stuff, they are placed into the vault instead and you have x free withdrawals from the vault before you have to give some items in exchange so you can take rest of your items back :) this should better solve the idea behing the legacy rebirth I want it to be the mechanism of the "fresh start" so you can enjoy your legacy bonuses but loosing all of your hardly farmed items was too cruel, so I introduced this "legacy vault" mechanism where every item that you had in your inventory equiped or unequiped is now taken from you and stored in the legacy vault (monk is the NPC you are looking for :D) until you give 4 fine items T1-T4 as a gift, and in exchange you can then take all your belonging back :). This will create the experience I wanted (you should start on low-level tiers and farm your way to higher-level tiers even with legacy), and it won't restrict you too much. There are also free withdrawals with higher-level legacy so you can take some of your items to boost your way through :)
AND you can now invite your friends via Steam mid-game!!!!!!! I know .... unbelievable : D:D
just press tab in multiplayer as a host, and you will see the players list with the invite button.
BTW, most of the things that were changed or worked on were somehow connected to your requests :)
I hope you will like the changes - tell me your favourite in the comments or on the Discord (mine are two, the legacy vault and monsters preview :))
