2 ถูกใจ

Hi shopkeepers/crafters!

Version 2.0 is here!

This major update brings new ways of transforming materials and crafted items aside from the established ones, a news system overhaul (with new event types), item icon refresh as well as some more QOL changes and bug fixes.

Watch the teaser video from the previous announcement, or go on a deep dive with the full list of changes below!

As we get closer to the game's 1 year anniversary, I'd like to bring in more stuff to Craggenrock to fully flesh out its potential and I hope this update brings us closer to that goal. I really hope you guys everything that's new and fixed here, and I'm looking forward to hearing from y'all.

See you all back in Pareho 👋

Changelog

What’s New

Added 3 recurring events
- These types of events happen on regular intervals and are not affected by the number of news you have or your reputation.
- These include:
  - Paydays
    - Paydays occur twice every month, either during the 5th and 20th or 7th or 22nd. The dates are randomly decided per save file.
    - During paydays, all adventurers will ignore any criteria when choosing what to buy. If they can use an item and they can afford it, they will buy it! No quality, durability, etc. to think about ‘coz they got the moolah.
  - Remembrance Week
    - Remembrance Week occurs during Duerno 13 until 19.
    - During this time, no adventurers will be shopping. You might also notice them missing from the town.
  - Solidarity Week
    - Solidarity Week happens during Unna 7 until 13.
    - While this event is observed, no townsfolk will be shopping. Pareho residents will prefer to stay at home.

Added 3 seasonal events
- These special types of events, when triggered, have multiple stages that can significantly change supply and demand in Pareho during its duration.
- These are:
  - Harvest season
    - Farmers in town will get really busy during this time, temporarily increasing demand for certain items and visits from farmers.
    - While the harvests are going on, expect lower farmer counts in your shop.
    - Once it's done, you can expect higher supply available in the town fair.
  - Hunting season
    - Hunters (and barbarians) will participate in this, affecting item demand and making more of them visiting your shop.
    - Expect lower hunters and barbarian shoppers while the hunts are going on.
    - Once the hunts are done, expect more monster-related material supply in the town fair.
  - Homecoming
    - Adventurers need to go home too every once in a while. In preparation for the trip back, expect higher than usual traffic in your shop.
    - It'll be followed with a dip in adventurer counts. They’re home so, yeah, what’d you expect?
Added 19 more news events
- Sometimes, the mining company’s foundry will need repairing, disallowing you from ordering ingots for some time.
- Hannah from the tavern will now host caterings and parties, affecting food and drink availability.
- Isalin may encounter road blockages preventing her from arriving. She may also arrive early sometimes!
- You may now encounter shopper surges, where your shop will get flooded by only 1 type of shopper (e.g. all Soldiers, all Champions, etc.).
- Fads are here. Some items will get temporary boosts in demand, making them more attractive to certain shoppers.
- Condemnations are now here too. When something is condemned, that item’s demand is temporarily lowered and will disgust certain shoppers.
- The town hall might issue prohibitions too due to public health concerns, preventing the town fair from restocking certain items for a few days.
- Every now and then, you’ll get new sets of adventurer recruits, increasing adventurer traffic in your shop.
- Arlo has his ups and downs too!
  - When he’s feeling inspired, any item he crafts gets +1 quality.
  - When he’s feeling down, any crafted item suffers -1 quality.
- Sometimes, specific adventurer types will be gone from the island.
  - Barbarians may go back for the arena tryouts.
  - Soldiers might be called back for training camps.
  - Paladins may embark on their pilgrimages.
  - Travelers may have a tough time docking due to rough waters.
- Your reputation spreads, and it will get people talking. You may get praises, rumors, and whatnot concerning you, attracting certain classes of customers.

Changed how the market decides its supply
- It now only regenerates once the season changes.
- Stalls that have run out of supply of a specific item will continue to resupply it at the end of the day as long as the market has some. If no supply is left, you can only wait until the season changes or when some news changes the supply again.
Adjusted how you get news by introducing cooldowns
- Before, getting news was entirely random. It meant that it is possible to get news that can cancel out each other (e.g. both influx and efflux at the same time).
- By introducing cooldowns and through a general news system upgrade, you are much less likely to get news when you just have received some, or while there are still active ones. You will also no longer get contradicting news.
Item demands now soft reset every 4 days instead of 6.
Adjusted chances of hunters, soldiers and cloaked shoppers appearing at lower crafting and sales levels to be much closer to one another.
Access to Saxanite and Wistrite, once bought from Karron, now resets at the start of every month.

Items’ amounts that are currently the maximum for a stack are now displayed in blue.

The calendar now shows when town merchants restock, when Isalin is in town, and affected dates of recurring events (i.e. paydays, Solidarity/Remembrance Week).

When Braso is feeling unsafe and can’t restock, the duration is now visible.
