OmniMall Upgrades Servers

Tuesday, September 15th, 2009

OmniMall has gone through some upgrades and will now remember any item that has been listed there for future searches, even if that item isn’t currently listed or in your inventory. The data began recording today, so items not currently in OmniMall should show permanently the next time they are listed.

There are some other updates as well:

  • Resolves some issues with today’s new donation item. Many thanks to Al, Zelandoni, and PaidPiedPiperPal for helping me sort this out.
  • Corrected some strange issues that occurred when trying to target destroyed hacking defenses. Thanks, Mag!
  • Fixed the link back from the donations page. Good catch, Ricket!
  • Vigilante encounters in the Sewers shouldn’t refer to Fangs’ setbacks that haven’t occurred. Thanks for keeping me honest, Thrillhouse :)
  • Network Scan and Eavesdropping Tools now allow you to see alerts like the Network Interpreter does. Good suggestion, Llamaman and Argeth!
  • Also fixed some typos thanks to Dfmchfhf, PaidPiedPiperPal, and particularly Mag.

Cheers!

Quick Updates

Thursday, July 23rd, 2009

There’ve been a couple updates recently, just want to post them so we be all up to date.

  • Completely revamped the luxury foods smuggling. You get more foods as your smugglers build up connections with the upper crust. New foods have also been added and existing foods have had their Energy decreased.
  • Corrected a major mall bug where old orders weren’t copied over properly when you reclaimed your items with reset. Big thank you to PaidPiedPiperPal for being the guinea pig on this one!
  • Skill levels on other people’s skills now show their level, not yours. Thanks Mag and others for harassing me until I implemented this :)
  • Joining chat while you’re in a gang now defaults to being in both Open and Gang, rather than just Gang. Thanks Llamaman, RazielSonOfKain, and Mag for brining this one up.
  • The quest log entry for helping out Angela should now appear after you help her out. Thanks for the bug report, Zelandoni!
  • We also have some typo fixes from Thrillhouse, Arcturas, PaidPiedPiperPal, and Rykar.

Cheers!

Updates

Sunday, July 19th, 2009

Just wanted to post the updates from the last few days.

  • There’s a new melee Technique snuck in. Thanks to PaidPiedPiperPal for the suggestion.
  • Items with Neural Links (allowing you to play Neural Recordings) are now labeled in their effects. You can still use them from your inventory.
  • Names on the Recruitment pane in the Gang Screen now link to people’s profiles. Good suggestion, Mag.
  • Broke up a confusing choice between “rushing in to help” and “rushing in to kill people” on the pre-quest Docks. Thanks, Argeth!
  • Buffed brass knuckles so starting melee would have a little more beatdown potential. Thanks for starting this conversation, Jick!
  • Pressing enter in the gang stash sale fields doesn’t always sell arms. Thanks, Valera!
  • Fixed some weirdness with the Prototype Coat use ability. Thanks, Zelandoni.
  • Also, thanks to Zelandoni, Insanity Prawn Boy, Mag, and Queztatlapoca for help finding some typos.

Cheers!

Happy Fourth!

Sunday, July 5th, 2009

Recovering from the festivities yesterday (yay! fireworks!) and working on Metroplexity.

A few updates:

  • If you’re in chat as the daily shutdown approaches, there’ll be notices at the 10 and 1 minute mark. Thanks for the suggestion, Sir Cheddar.
  • There is now an account option to make “Metros” appear as an option in your header. Good suggestion, Artie Effham.
  • Gang Messages now appear in the edit box if you want to make minor changes. Thanks to The Kitchen Sink for poking me on this one.

And some bug fixes:

  • Avatars will be awarded appropriately to those first entering Gang Warfare. Thanks to The Kitchen Sink and Zelandoni for helping me sort this one out.
  • Private gangs will now appropriately be private (they were displaying if you were whitelisted to any gang, not just that one). Thanks, Olaf!
  • Smugglers in the Slags and the University are no longer confused as to who’s where. Thanks for the testing Valera!
  • Petrol Splash should now set the other guy on fire when defending in Gang Warfare. Good catch, Starwed.
  • Mikhail shouldn’t get really confused anymore when you don’t have any Eclipse in your inventory. Wouldn’t have found it without you, Olaf!
  • For some strange reason, PaidPiedPiperPal keeps wanting his Gang Jacket combines to not turn into coffee grounds. Crazy, I know, but I keep fixing them anyway.

Also, a nice batch of typos from DudeAtHome, PaidPiedPiperPal, Argeth, Borkman, Man Mobile, and Al!

Big thanks to everyone for keeping up with bug reporting. I’m plugging away at the Survivors’ Quest. The main quest won’t be ready for a while, but I’ve got some goodies lined up to keep things hopping in the mean time.

Cheers!

Catch Up Caught Up

Tuesday, June 30th, 2009

Done with Origins and caught up on all the bug reports and typos from over the Con. I’ve got a pile of drop-dead awesome art from Puyo and am looking forward to filling the Survivor’s quest with it.

  • Evasion Power is now working properly. Great catch, Starwed!
  • Descriptions in the Mall should now come up consistently. Thanks to Man Mobile and Zelandoni for helping me sort this one out.
  • Asking the bartender “What’s the News?” no longer costs Energy. Thanks to Jick for the suggestion.
  • Extra warehouse security badges are now salvagable. Thanks to Man Mobile for the suggestion here.
  • Added some more University-relevant melee weapons, related to armory. Thanks to Argeth for the idea.
  • Added a pair of new avatars for the gang warriors out there.
  • Also fixed a bunch of typos. Thank you Valera, Happy Yeti, Man Mobile, PaidPiedPiperPal, The Kitchen Sink, and Shademaster00 for the help.

Also, rumors that Midgard was forced to return to its pre-Incident designs for the SD1 drones are completely without merit. Nothing to see here.

Cheers!

Mid-Origins Update

Friday, June 26th, 2009

Just wanted to post an update about the changes made over the last couple of days. I’ve been keeping up on Bug Reports and plugging away at Survivors’ quest stuff. Puyo’s here, cranking out good arts. Pretty productive week for how little I’ve been at the house.

Couple fixes to report:

  • Fixed a bug that was overwriting your hand in combat with bad data. Huge thanks to Man Mobile and Starwed for helping figure this one out.
  • There’s now a more obvious, but hopefully not too obtrusive, link to donate. Good suggestion, The Kitchen Sink.
  • Dr. Thomas should now be a bit more coherent when talking about the Hammer. Thanks for the note Zeladoni.
  • Gaining control in PvP no longer gives you a message talking about how you’re going to get control eventually. Good catch, the Kitchen Sink.
  • Also thanks to PaidPiedPiperPal, Thrillhouse, Wyrd, and Mag for typokilling.

Cheers!
