  1. They still receive funds if they are over the 10% ratio, path of knowledge helps in determining this. Trader payouts will always vary, there is a specific portion of the coin pool reserved for traders though, and it will never be nothing.
  2. It's too large for pastebin, the perimeter inclusion is quire xpansive for starter deeds, as it adds a lot more tiles. The old export thanks to KaiH is here: http://pastebin.com/JJEY8Pg1
  3. It's much easier than mining, mining sucks!
  4. The export plan is a benefit of owning a deed, I don't see this changing honestly.
  5. That hits close reylaark, I do nothing in wurm but pick fruit and watch Bob Ross
  6. It's no secret that the existing tutorial is lacking, it does not achieve what it set out to do, which was to provide an initial guide, but for players to use the book of wisdom to orient themselves while playing. The new system will aim to be much more interactive, explorative, and also showcase just what is possible in wurm. also, the UI is a MAJOR reason in feedback, not understanding how keybinds work, wiki formatting being horrible, it's very dated and it shows, how new players interact with the game is a huge part of what makes getting into wurm difficult, while many won't directly say "the UI is bad" they do talk about now understanding how to do things, and honestly, poor formatting when it comes to using the ingame wiki and lack of knowledge regarding how to use the book of wisdom. Like I said before though, plans are in the works, needs to come in with other things, and will address key issues.
  7. CA help is enough, it's pretty clear what it's for
  8. Unfortunately the art update has been delayed due to some missing animations, it will be updated asap and a seperate notice will be made when its done.
  9. these are all points we will be addressing when designing the new tutorial. Not enough is set in stone to go into detail, but the new tutorial will be using all of golden valley for a reason.
  10. Ingame ban appeals are handled by contacting a GM via forum PM. Forum bans are handled by Firestarter or Pandalet.
  11. because those things don't add anything, there is a dedicated help channel for the tutorial server visible to ALL support staff, GV literally has every single ingame member of support staff available to ask questions. It is in the works, but also has to tie in with the new UI coming, so there's the need to time the two together, as the UI change will ultimately change how we teach new players the game and also what we teach them.
  12. Also, lay off the caps lock, it's bad for your health
  13. calm down, dont get all excited and wall of text-y. Like I said in that announcement, it would be a long process, and has been listed in the roadmap as well. The early announcement was to provide warning for players who play on GV.
  14. Just to reiterate, the time freezing issue is only to do with day/night. While annoying, it does not break the game in any way, shape, or form. Restarts alone DO NOT FIX IT. It only delays it until it starts again, what the "higher ups" are working on is actually identifying what causes the time to hang and how to optimise it so it doesnt occur. This is a long process, a lot of systems need to be investigated and tested, things need to be tweaked and monitored (there;s no way to simulate the stress that xanadu places on the code ingame, it works on every other server) Rest assured, it's something being addressed, but until then, the lights may go off from time to time. To address the still, it's not currently confirmed that the two are unrelated, and it's unlikely that they are, but a seperate issue with timing.
  15. Are there tickets in the queue? have someone lodge one
  16. I read underappreciated and thought of tracking.
  17. while you won';t have a crash log, the console log will have some info, can you copy it into a spoiler in here next time it happens?
  18. Because movement speed for horses is weight based, and wurmians are incredibly fat, and thus heavy. Same weight based speed calculations for a unicorn with 2x the weight
  19. Cant tell if you're talking about you or the drake here
  20. The crashing is java and system related I believe, so may need some double checking Firstly, delete ALL java instances on your pc, you can check this by going to Control panel > programs and features and uninstalling all instances of Java Secondly, you'll need to list your pc specs here, mostly graphics/ram, if you're running a laptop double check whether you have an integrated graphics card (Intel) or dedicated (nvidia or radeon) then we'll need to make sure that it's using the dedicated graphics. Also, how old is the pc?
  21. Pretty sure the passenger makes the mount move at like 2km/h, even with shoes you'd be a sitting duck
  22. tick size vs tick chance is different Actually blocking is easier with the new system, but the skill tick chance still operates on balancing ql with difficulty of blocking. Tick size is based off the damage blocked.
  23. how would they be different to hell horses? I fail to see a game breaking,system or meta change from this
  24. We are in the process of looking over this and will be addressing it, nothing is set in stone as of yet but it is in the works.
