Prelude: World 16.2

[Audiosmurf]

It could not be more obvious that this shit is maintenance mode until Hav3n/OCO just like 2D was

[QueueSS]

But what makes you say the world isn't playing? I feel like any reset has inherent value since fresh worlds are always fun

Yeah, good question. Almost like he doesn't like the game?

yeah i mean fair ig lol, it must be disappointing to be dissatisfied with a world reset knowing that itll be another 8-12 months before another

Ragehide = Rage + Rawhide

Ragehide never be used as a skill useless used to grief players or exploiting. PvP'ers don't like it because they're not killing the player and just sending it home. PvE'esr don't like it because it's a possible griefing tool.


1) Ragehide should not/cant be used when the person using Ragehide has visitor gate debuff, this would stop market shenanigans or somebody running into your village, thought your gates and Ragehiding sending you back to your fire.
2) Ragehide on players with red handed, how will that work? knocking out a player who has red handed (because they have theft but not rage), or not sending them home (would be abused to avoid Ragehide)
3) Ragehide acts like eviction, meaning there is a timer before they're sent back to their hearthfire?

When and where is this gonna be used for? the idea behind it was to stop a player who runs in and out of their gates to be annoying by pushing you in pvp or blocking your way but they dont have rage so you don't want to aggro them yourself. You can activate Ragehide to send them away, is this really helpful to pvp? and/or is it giving more power to aggressor type players and and lessening what "non-rage" players can do to defend their selves.
I know another reason for possibly adding this was to combat bot swarms, but the same bot swarm can all have rage.

So ultimately I think this takes away for the possibly that people will leave their walls to attempt to pvp, the real hardcore pvper crowd will get rage just to fight, the players who just be ok to defend tend to not want to get rage and will attempt to defend their villages or walls by doing gate strategy, and lastly we have the crowd of pvpers who don't by rage and run around trying to get ragers to start combat with them.

Maybe make a toggle for rage players so they can toggle a button that stops them from aggroing players who don't own rage, instead of having this ragehide skills?

Didn't get a chance to mention it during stream but please when you're going over the timer stuff for 16.2 don't just revert to old timer, just fix the edge cases with the faster timer like treepots on herb tables and please god fix steelmaking. The faster time during 16.1 has, in almost all instances, been a massive improvement on 16.1 over past worlds. if you're struggling with curio timers just double the study time of curios to effectively fix it to their old time values. ive noticed that curios go pretty quickly this world but I do not struggle to have the resources to make immense amounts of long-study time curios like rattle-tattles, easter eggs, glue troll, etc

Honestly . was looking forward to a fresh world to call permanent instead of this old deteriorated world from 2 years ago . even when i played since may 2025 and put in 1000's of hours .. the world was mostly rummaged through . Love the game though and thank you very much , am excited for 16.2 !

A changelist of "nothing, pvp may happen more with a single continent spawn, so we'll let non-ragers hearth themselves with an alt"

[*] Changes to disempower characters without "Rage" in combat. The current line of thinking is to make it possible to "evict" characters without "Rage" from more or less anywhere.

Surely this won't have any unintended side effects that won't be abused or weaponized in any way

Of course not, who would do such a thing

Code: Select all

   
let evict_index = 5;
async function evict({id, resid}) {
    if (state.res.get(resid).name !== 'gfx/borka/body') return;
    game.clickGob(state.mapview.id, {id}, 3);
    game.wdgmsg(state.last_wdg_id + 1, 'cl', [0, evict_index]);

    const menu = await game.waitFor('new_wdg', (({type}) => type === 'sm'));
    const new_evict_index = menu.cargs.indexOf('Evict');
    if (new_evict_index !== -1) {
        //do it again for a good measure
        game.wdgmsg(menu.id, 'cl', [0, new_evict_index]);
        evict_index = new_evict_index;
    }
}
//Execute synchronously during frame parsing for lower latency
game.prependFastListener('OD_RES', evict)
game.prependFastListener('OD_COMPOSE', evict)

What kind of monster one has to be to even think of doing that

Release in September, and doomsday camera.
