Hi Everyone! With the Easter break behind us it's been a quiet week on the development front, but there's been plenty of activity on my side! This Easter will be forever known as the "massacre of the bunnies" with the server spawning mechanics unfortunately causing the death of the poor creatures, some say the Easter bunny creature is now extinct... No updates this week, with a simple restart to ensure smooth play over the weekend. April Fools! This April fools was a lot of fun and while we threw around some ideas, we settled on a few hidden secrets and swapping the models. It was fun seeing deathcrawlers and eagles on the deserts of Freedom and has sparked discussions of the desire for more varied creatures in the wild lands of Wurm (though perhaps not Valrei mobs). something we're keen to look into. Enki also had some fun with some hidden secrets of his own, we don't know how long he's held onto them for as he tells us "since the 30th of Triskaidekamber" Tresure Hunt! This weekend holds the esteemed Pristine Treasure Hunt, where Enki has played I spy, and will lead you all on a merry chase over the beautiful lands of this... I can't stand it, I can't send you all to your deaths, it'll be a nightmare, you'll all get lost and die in the woods, run, while you still can! Rifts, rings and really cool pauldrons! Some sneaky players caught wind of the addition of shoulder pads and rings to the graphics pack, I can confirm some of these inclusions are related to the upcoming rifts content but I can't say much more than that. I hope to give you all the info in the coming weeks! Cave dwelling testing The cave dwelling testing was a tremendous amount of fun and we found and fixed some critical bugs as well as introduced a few things to make building inside caves easier. I'd like to thank all players for turning up and testing, and am happy to announce the winners! The four winners of 5 sleep powder are: Odynn Nicrolis Annyil Jakerivers And the winner of five sleep powder and the 90 quality rare silver pickaxe with 100 BotD is: Audrel! if you've won, send me a PM and we'll organise getting the rewards to you. Design a Starter Deed Extension I've had a few pm's asking about the possibility of extending the contest for designing the new starter deeds. After discussion we've agreed to extend it another week, closing on Thursday, April 7th. A lot of starter deeds haven't had designs submitted and we removed a lot of the material and building restrictions , so if you feel like trying out for one, have a go! Join the forum team! Our new Lead Forum Moderator is on the hunt for enthusiastic new members of the forum moderation team, to apply please make sure you meet the requirements and follow the instructions here: PvP discussions. This week saw a lengthy pvp discussion on the forums and I'd like to thank everyone for the feedback, it's clear some changes are universally desired, and can be implemented fairly quickly and easily. As expected though, the rest will require careful treading and may take some time. I know we all wish to see improvements in PvP as soon as possible and I hope this proves to be the case. Wurm Unlimited Mod API There's been a lot of discussion lately about mod support for Wurm Unlimited, and I'm pleased to announce we have been working on and developing an official supported modding API for Wurm Unlimited! We'll hopefully have some more info soon and look forward to working with modders on identifying what areas to focus on and getting priority targets released! Weekly Question Whats your best ever April fools prank? Community Content Easter weekend came with a twist on KangaWU, with the Easter Bunny being 8 foot tall, and terrorising the players by throwing eggs, summoning chickens and being a general pest. Without the Holy Hand Grenade of Anitoch, it was up to the brave members of KangaWU to slay this beast, and the results can be seen here: That's it from me for this week, I'll be around on the weekend if you have any issues or questions, so please don't hesitate to say hi! Retrograde & the Wurm team.
