Hi All,
Coastline & Island Region assignment
Over the last few days we've tidied up coastlines a bit, especially in terms of making sure that all terrain is assigned to a region.
Some of you were living in "The Ocean", but you may have noticed that your piece of land is now assigned to the nearest major region.
This tidy-up was a necessary step towards the release of Trade v2, as trade hub price visibility is on a regional basis, and the Ocean posessed no trade hubs :)
NPC square seeding
The desert biome was finally seeded with NPC Spawn points, so that NPCs now spawn in these areas.
NPC square graphic changes
Up until now we only had 6 NPC squares:
- Standing Stones
- Barrow
- Abandoned Mineshaft
- Ruined Tower
- Ancient Forest, and
- Dolmen
We've released a new graphics pack which adds 18 new NPC square types to the list, many of which are biome-specific; from Temples lost in the Jungle to Far Eastern Pagodas, from Pyramids to Hunting Lodges.
With the exception of the desert biome (which had no NPC squares), we haven't seeded any new NPC squares nor have we changed any of the underlying Wood, Clay, Iron, Stone & Food numbers on any NPC squares. You might find, however, that the graphics have changed for squares near you.
We hope you enjoy the new graphics and some of the new, newer NPC units and spawns that have come with them.
Regards,
SC
