WORLD 15
World Reset
-----------------------
- Tonight we reset all variable game data -- maps & characters -- as first announced here, and generate a new, hopefully improved, world: World 15.
- We have made no changes which should impair custom clients more than they may already be impaired.
- A non-exhaustive changelog can be found here. There are plenty of things to discover.
Payment Model
-----------------------
- Subscription timers have been paused since the announcement of World 15, but will activate again when we bring up the new World 15 server, and tick as usual.
- All store hats in the store, including those given as rewards for subscriptions, have been replaced. Anyone who purchased a subscription between the world reset announcement, and the time we took the store down for refurbishing, will have received both the old and new hats relevant for his or her particular subscription level.
- As per the standard from World 14, higher subscription tiers give, apart from the hat unlocked with the tier, all hats belonging to the lower tiers.
- As outlined in the world reset announcement, Sketches can now be used twice on mundane containers to extend their size by one row and column respectively.
- All Bronze subscribers have additionally been awarded the "Corn-on-the-Cob". All Silver subscribers have also been awarded the "Pearly Sand Hat". All Gold subscribers have also been awarded the "Star Puff". Thank you for your ongoing support.
In the Pipe
-----------------------
- Many of you have decided to use the store since we announced the world reset, and we are very grateful for this. Thank you for supporting us, and the game.
- We'll be keeping an eye on the server tomorrow, but aim to deliver at least some bug fixes sometime during next week.
- Object-Controlled-Objects is the primary development goal. The smaller, weeklyish patches will continue as usual.
- I may update this post with answers to question that may come up, and edits for clarity, or whatever.
We found the game significantly improved with the changes introduced to smithing, casting, and early world progression in W14, and it will always be dear to us for that reason, but we are also very excited for a new beginning. The update to allow for multiple light sources is particularly dear to me.
The best of luck in World 15, and...
ENJOY!
