So why change the harvesting skill gain, I was enjoying the ticks from the very long harvest action timer, and actually thought it was a new feature. It seemed pretty cool to have the skill gain tick chances on each occurrence of a harvest on a action which if I am not mistaken has a fixed time to do.

 

The issue was that each occurance of a tick took time from the beginning of the action; so the 2nd fruit was giving x2 skill, 3rd x3, 4th x4. For a total of getting 2.5x intended skill per tree (at 80 skill).

 

The fix SHOULD make it so all fruits give about equal skill ticks, on tick-giving actions.

Bugfix: Fixed various text descriptions for recipes and ingredients.

 

Can I assume a change was put in for the recipe 'MR Whippys Desserts' 'It's not summer without some just dessert'?

 

I would also like to see an apology from the person on the team that came up with that name and description and why the rest of the staff thought it was funny to make such a callus insult to so many wurm players and allow that to go live.

 

Our Mol Rehan wurm player group is well over 100 strong in our discord channel, that is a lot of customers to insult.

Like I said to others, recipes and their descriptions for the kingdoms were  created months in advance to 1.3, and before any issues with MR chaos.

It was simply not connected at the time of the incident and we didnt go back to it.

 

That said, this was changed, as I said to several other MR players.

Very much this; as is, the unicorn's strength is pathetic

Even if the timing was months before our problems, this is still a callus insult to a large part of your player base. 

 

I still think we as loyal paying customers deserve our 'just dessert' in a form of an apology from the person who came up with this and the team that allowed it to go live.

 

(I will point out the lime pie for another group of wurm players contained no insults)

Wait you've said that just desserts is an insult and now you're using it as something good?

 

I'm confused as to the problem

While I am not the developer responsible, I do wish to apologise for any offense that the examine text caused. The fact is the gap of time between the recipes being created and the incident involving MR chaos was several months, and by the time it happened we simply did not connect the two possibilities.

 

As soon as it was raised I spoke with several members of MR, and not only assured them that it would be changed in the next update, but also provided the new examine text prior to it going live "Like life, you have to lick this one day at a time "

 

The references to the kingdoms in recipes was all based on simple puns, Kyara lime pie = key lime pie, hots dog = hot dog, and MR whippy - Mr whippy (so over puns). No offense was intended with any of these, and the intention was a simple bit of fun, like with many other recipes.

 

I hope that helps you understand that not only was no offense intended, but we were sure to rectify the matter immediately upon realising how it could have been interpreted.

Retro, I appreciate you taking the time to acknowledge that the recipe's wording was in poor taste. Thank you.

Mr Whippy is the name of many soft serve ice cream vans in Australia, can see how that might of been an innocent little pun before MR dissolving with Emoo being Australian (they are probably all over the world for all I know)

Can we mount unicorns if there not tamed? I'd still be afraid to take a unicorn out and have it get attacked because it's tamed.

 

Unicorns need a increase in spawn also.

as a fellow Australian, I remember buying these from the ice cream van when I was a mere boy, we thought it was the greatest thing ever, they were like 50c or something

That's not all

Another popular suggestion that's been floating around has been a little more bling to a specific mount...

That's right, Coming soon unicorns will be able to be equipped with gold and silver shoes, bridles, saddles and receive the speed bonuses from them!

Barding will not be able to be equipped, and the speed will be somewhere between a horse and a hell horse.

Oh can their saddles be actual GOLD visually?  Will it stop them from running off?

I'm looking forward to unicorn cavalry at future rifts.

 

They won't be attacked the way cart-hitched horses are, right?

good point, will they be hitchable, or just rideable?

This cave entrance ain't big enough for the both of us, yet...
Ever feel that one tile just isnt wide enough? Well soon you dont have to worry about that! Thanks to some very hard work, we'll be introducing two tile wide caves!

 

Okay, that's fine, but what about the extra space for my guide horse?

You mean unicorns will be good for something other than horns??? Sigh I suppose I'll have to stop murdering them.

Now that two-tile wide cave entrances will be implemented, could The Powers That Be possibly consider modifying highway rules to include reinforced floors (with surrounding tiles reinforced as well) as part of a valid highway, assuming they meet other criteria such as being 2+ wide the whole way through?

 

This way, tunnels could be properly protected parts of a highway in addition to roads and bridges.

also to mention this is based off the BASE historical kingdoms which partially and fully exist on chaos and epic, and not any pmks.  kyara is just a historical name that's normally associated with base jk for many many years.  if im wrong im wrong but thats how i read it all.

 

Spoiler

the hots one (hots dog) is literally as close to a reference as a certain human reproductive organ can get being made with human sausage and tbh i think that's hilarious
