Module Changes

[Strife and Discord]

V8491:

Bug Fixes:

• Adjusted the Hunter's Thirst Spell script to allow players to cast on items in their inventory and not have to swap hands and then cast

Trinity Flora Related Changes:

• Added additional safety measures to avoid database corruption
• Added support for builders to limit planting zones to specific flora category or specific plants

Toolbar Changes:

• Modified the Diceroll tool(For both DMs and Players) to have the skills appear in an ascending alphabetical order. Please let me know if there are any issues there
• Added a new button to the Player toolbar - XP toggle

Survival System - Campfires:

• Tinder and Oil Flask items were removed from all stores. Code yet remains so if you still have these items you can use them until they are used up, but then you wont be able to get new ones.

• The new survival system introduces 2 new ways to light campfires, which are both dependent on your Survival skill:

  1. Twigs - You can grab twigs from trees(Oak, Hickory and Mahogany) and use one twig on another to generate a campfire. This is considered less expensive but also requires more survival skill
  2. Flint Stone - You can buy those at stores and they give you easier access to firestarting. You will need to use them however on a burning material(Twigs, Branches, etc). Flint stone is more expensive but requires less survival skill to succeed with

[Strife and Discord]

V8513-8514:

Bug Fixes:

• https://nodebb.cityofarabel.com/topic/65537/unrechable-gem-node-misty-river
• Corrected discrepancy between planting zone terrains and their map notes(I.E A planting zone was set as Urban terrain but still showed as Plains in the Mini-map)

Trinity System Related Changed - Flora:

• Added support for a new terrain type to be used by builders - Orchard
• Made all Non-corrupted Mushrooms to act as seed pods and you can now extract spores from them for planting
• Adjusted the weight of all spores and seeds to not exceed or be equal to their pod seeds
• Adjusted some of the feedback messages to be more grammatically correct
• Corrected an issue with some plant seeds not appearing as a stack when you open the seed pod, but rather as individual items that can be stacked later
• Plants will regenerate their leaves/flowers/etc even if you pick the flowers but leave the leaves untouched - They will only regenerate their missing parts!
• Added a new logic for detecting wild flora:
  • Utilizes a combination of Survival, Knowledge Nature and spot skills to make together flora detection. For every 5 combined ranks your range of spotting flora in the wild will increase by 1 meter
  • Night time will now make it harder to spot flora in the wild unless closer, and things like Darkvision/Low-Light vision/Ultravision will either reduce the penalty or negate it fully

V8515:

Ranger/Druid Related Changes:

• Rangers and Druids should not longer see the ability to choose an Animal Companion in the creation/level-up screens, which was redundant and misleading for new players

• Rangers should now get the Animal Companion feat at level 3 instead of 6. Additionally the feat will no longer be single use per day, but unlimited. These actions are prep work to move .compan dot commands to a dedicated UI

Asset Changes:

• Added 7 new creature portraits for builders to use
• Added 30 new misc item appearances to be used by builders for various things such as: Trinity, new Bard song appearances, new Barbarian rage appearances

Movement Skills System Changes(Swim/Jump/Balance/etc):

System was adjusted to account better for items that have those movement skills bonuses assigned to them, and must be equipped. Please let us know if you see any issues or if things are too good to be true.

Trinity System Related Changes:

• Added missing Skullcap flower so players can extract seeds to plant it
• Introduced additional key feature to resource nodes that will be revealed in future versions
• Added support for individual flora detection penalty(For better concealed flora) to be used by builders
• Began laying the groundwork for Rare/Bounty Flora to spawn using this system(Rare spore/Fungus, Rose Skull, etc)
