Posted October 17, 2013 Hello Fellow Wurmians! I am happy to once more be able to share some news and work in progress with you.As always there is plenty of things going on and the development team have been hard at work indeed.Crafting InterfaceWe have now started working on a crafting interface and it, if I might say so myself, is going to make a major difference on how fun and intuitive it is to craft.So far it is not very graphical, but the functionality is coming along nicely. The idea is that you will be able to get a better overview of what you can craft, by activating and experimenting with different components in the interface.Combining it with some new interface design and the new icons will definitely make it a beautiful and important part of the game experience. Load ActionWe also have a highly sought after feature being tested and implemented as you are reading this, and that is the “Load†action. This means that when you are, for example, embarked as commander on a large cart. Gain the option to issue the “Load†command when right clicking items.That gives you the ability to transport items which previously has been to big and heavy to move.The item in turn will be loaded directly onto the cart, given there is enough capacity and space.This action will also be available for all the ships but not for the small cart.ArtOn the art front there are some new decorative craftable objects being implemented.We present to you the braziers! An essential for creating that fabulous good old medieval look on your deed. Player Name ChangeWe have started a poll to see the general interest in offering in game character name changes for a fee.Just follow this link to leave your vote and opinion. That is all for now.So I strongly recommend you just Keep on Wurming! 23 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 17, 2013 The load action sounds awesome. Even more helpful, though, would be if we could e.g. drag dirt, rock shards etc directly into lrg cart like we can into bsbs. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I am so sorry Rose but the bulk transfer is something that is not yet implemented. Maybe in next news update there can be some information about it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Posted October 17, 2013 I thought the crafting interface was already being developed for a while now? It was announced as planned in the current focus post a while back yes. But not as being actively developed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted October 17, 2013 I am so sorry Rose but the bulk transfer is something that is not yet implemented. Maybe in next news update there can be some information about it. So items that can't be picked up like fountains, chests, statues etc, does this include containers that are full? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
