Wild Terra 2: New Lands - guniball

Added the Inspiration mechanic to help players who don't have the opportunity to play often and a lot. Also added some fixes and improvements.

Thank you very much for your support. Thanks to you, the game gets better with every update!

Update 2.1.317. Changelog

Inspiration:
- Added Inspiration mechanic. During your offline, the reservoir of inspiration will be replenished. You can use Inspiration to triple the experience gained of any skill. Use the On/Off button to spend Inspiration at the right time. For all characters on the account, the reservoir of inspiration is the same.

Fixes and Improvements:
- Improved and fixed a lot of little things in the introductory part of the tutorial.
- Fixed miner's food.
- Fixed quest with sulfur ore. Less ore is required and the reward has been improved.
- Fixed beer delivery quests.
- Now you can also purchase resources from the fisherman and the librarian, not only in 1 piece, but in a stack.
- Fixed the logic of the camera when interacting with NPCs.
- Fixed bug with lighting in dungeons.
- Fixed an issue where quests in the tracker could make other quests difficult to read.
- Fixed Guardian tree sapling icon.
- Slightly reduced movement speed. Adjusted animation speed.
In fact, movement speed was reduced in the previous patch, but this was out of the changelog. The purpose of slowing down is to improve synchronization with the server, which will make the fight with the players more controlled, and the monsters more dangerous.

Brongart dungeon changes:
- Added blockages that require Lvl 40 Woodcutting to clear.
- The spawn of finds has become more unpredictable.
- It will now be more difficult to run through the dungeon guards without engaging in battles.

Windless Woods Update 1.5

Swords 'n Magic and Stuff - Janna

Welcome to the Windless Woods update!

We're beyond excited to share this new zone with everyone. There are so many new mechanics and features that went into this zone. First and foremost: a complete revamp of our magic system. It still needs some tweaks, but it feels great to be a magic user now.

With this update, any staff or wand that you had will be converted to the new staff or wand in your inventory automatically. One staff and one wand will convert to their new counterparts plus a tome that you would have gotten by doing that quest originally. There is no need to go back on a new character to get these. A secondary point to the staff/wand change, if you have these items in your collections, please remove them and re-add them to their new spot in the collections. We will be removing the old items out of your collections in the coming months so if you do not convert them now, when they are removed from collections you will no longer have access to that old item.

With this update we're also releasing dedicated servers! This means you can have an always-up server hosted wherever you like for you and your friends to join. To get your hands on these you can get them from the Tools section of your Steam library. If you need help with dedicated servers we've opened a new forum channel in our Discord channel just for this. Here's the link: http://discord.gg/kindredgames

And without further ado, here's those patch notes you've been waiting for! Thanks for all your patience and support throughout this update. It's a big one!
