Did the spawn area rules change for W10?

Post by Vilu »

Is it just me, or did new character spawning rules change for the new world? Looks like I have spawned at the very western edge of the world: I'm bumping into an invisible wall not far west from my hearth fire. World 9 had an area in the middle of the world where all new characters spawned.

Is anyone else experiencing something similar?

It is because we expanded World 9 during its course, which made the entirety of the world larger than the spawn area. It too behaved this way at the start.

Ah, thanks for the clarification. I started playing W9 just a few weeks ago, so didn't know about the periodical expansion.

My hermit play style yearns for solitude, so I'll guess I'll have to wait through few expansion rounds until I can find a remote place to settle down.

Expansion is not guaranteed.
