Hotfix 24.09.29

Hotfix 24.09.29 changes:

This update is primairly to fix and re-activate the unique item system, so that augments can be attached to these unique items again.

- The game will automatically apply the fix for the unique item system when you're past the introduction with the ministers in your castle at the start of the story.
- This fix will prevent the game from making duplicated items in saves that were created before the unique item system was introduced.
- The "disappeared" items should all be back.
- An option in the cheat/bugfix menu was added to allow you to remove duplicated legendary (unique) equipment. However, for this to work, you should be on your normal party (not female adventurers for example) and all equipment on characters is taken off by the system to allow it to count and correct the amount properly. (Since it can be annoying with all equipment being taken off, I made this an extra option in the bug-fix menu, instead of an automatic system.)
- The change of item names when augments are attached now works as intended, even in older saves.
- An option in the cheat/bugfix menu was added to give you an orb to clean item names that were bugged in the previous version. For example, an item whose name was changed to "Sharp " will return to it's original name when that cleaner orb is attached and removed once. The boost number behind the name (+X) can show a wrong value as result, but that doesn't affect the actual strength of the item or augment.
- The error in the crafting system with alchemy tables or with Chiyo's alchemy skill was solved.
- The "optimize" equipment option works properly again.

- The toggle for the colorblind mode is now in the options menu.

Hotfix 24.09.26

The system for unique items, which was added in the update two days ago, sadly had a problem that I wasn't able to quickly fix. To avoid people getting problems with duplicated items or wrong item names, I disabled the system for the time being, while I work on a solution.
The duplicated items should disappear automatically, but all augments that are still on your equipment when you load the save in the new version will also disppear, so remove all augments that you want to keep before updating.
The wrong names items got due to the attached augments should also fix themselves.

The menu was changed. The status, equip, skill, formation, save, and load options are now back in their previous locations to make navigating through the options and characters better. Based on the feedback, this should be a better solution than packing everything in a sub-menu.

Using the "update files only" will quickly apply the fix to all versions apart from android.

Update 24.09.24

Update 24.09.24 is primarily for quality of life and system improvements. The usual content updates will continue in the next version with Brad's wedding among other things.

Changes:

[-Menu-]
- Improved menu system, which includes a „Fast Travel" option to replace the teleport orb item, and the options to load save files and exit the game completely.
- Improved item screen with new categories for the items.



The teleport screen (now „Fast Travel“) also has a few additions:
- Exit to go back to the location where you selected "Fast Travel" in the menu.
- Enter the country overview map to manage your country. (Unlocks after the events with Sir Edward, Mira, and the old barracks to the point where you previously received the country management map item.)
- Two new connections to the worldmap were added. One appears near Witton in the south of Central after your introduction to the ministers in the castle of Aldlyln, the second in Dorgania after they open their border with you.
- The black borders of the background on the left and right were replaced with green grass. The map also changes now when you have roads constructed. With the second upgrade for stone roads, the images on the left and right will also randomly change to a desert/snow background when you enter the screen.



[-Augment system-]
Some weapons and armor pieces are now „unique“ and can be upgraded with augments, which can be attached and detached freely.
- Runes give attack bonuses or additional skills for weapons.
- Glyphs will change the attack element of the weapon. Only weapons without an attack element have a slot for a glyph.
- Orbs can be used to improve stats in both weapons and armors.
- Spheres are upgrades for armors.



- Weapons now have a text color that shows their attack element. For example, a fire weapon is red, thunderfury as a thunder element weapon is yellow, and so on.
- Legendary items have orange names, unless their attack element is changed with a glyph.
- Armors that are unique with sphere and orb slots have a purple names, or orange when they're legendary items.
- The augments not only change the color of items, but they also change the name. For example, a Thunderfury blade with a rune of sharpness is renamed to "Sharp Thunderfury" and a (+X) behind the name shows a vague power level of all augments on the weapon.
- The (+X) number behind the name of the item doesn't affect it's stats. The number is just a visualisation of how powerful the augments on that item are, so that you can quickly see what item has a lot of augments on it.
- You can change the augments of equipped weapons/armors without having to take them off. (However, equipment that was equipped before this update has to be taken off and put back on first, before they appear in the item list of weapon/armor while being equipped.)
- Note: When you have an augment with percentages, like +ATK%, it won't change the stats of the weapon in the preview screen, as it increases the total ATK of the character equipping the item, not just of the item itself.

- A part of the idea for the system is that you can get the simple augments early, the better augments in raids or higher level dungeons, and the best augments in the time skip cotent and afterwards. This way, the legendary weapons you've farmed won't become replaced by better equipment in later stages, but are constantly improved instead.



- There are new mining spots and shop options all over the world to obtain simple augments, but you can also purchase them in a new shop on the time skip phase screen.
- An option in the cheating menu was added to give you a bunch of the most powerful augments, including those that can't be obtained yet. (Obviously just for testing purposes. You wouldn't use them for anything else...right?)


[-QoL, balancing, and bug fixes-]
- You can now enter the church you construct on the country overview map next to Thremten from the worldmap. (It currently has no events or chests in it though.)
- The damage of Frall's vanguard squad ability "Ice Lance" was increased from 5 to 15 dmg per remaning AP.
- Fixed a bug with Bristol's vanguard squad ability Meteor Strike, which caused the spot of defeated enemies to be impassable.
- New buttons on the laboratory and university research screen for the country management map allow you to quickly switch between the two screens.
- The price of pearls for skills in the skilltrees for the female adventurers was reduced.
- The "Turn End" icon on the country overview map now gives you the option to advance several turns at once, if you have 2 or more logistic points.
- Automatic increase of all party members with a level below 90 to level 90 when you enter the time skip events.
- The amount of seeds and fertilizers you receive from defeating boss enemies in the nature raid dungeon was significantly increased.
- The amount of crops you get from plants in the nature raid dungeon was changed from a fixed amount of 1 to a random amount between 1-3.
- The chance to get legendary items from the fire raid chests was significanly increased.
- I added an option in the cheat and bugfix menu to finish the quest Dorgania Deserter, so that people who encountered a bug that left the quest unfinished even after solving it can get it out of their questlogs.
- The random encounters on the worldmap were replaced by small monsters that run around on the map. The plants in Central are automatically defeated when Ryen is level 30 or higher, and the plants in Begus and the scorpions in Dorgania when Ryen is level 60+.



- The academy on the country overview map now increases the level of a vanguard squad by +1 for 30 Budget immediately (for an unlimited amount of times as long as you have enough Budget), instead of 10 Budget for +50 experience once per turn.
- In the secret mine of Manastyr, when you give iron to transmute it into strange gold, you now get to select how much iron you want to transmute instead of all iron being used automatically.
- The dialogs for trading with the hellhounds in the hellhound village in the volcano of Amagal were improved. You can now select how many of an item you want to barter, dialog boxes with comments like "Here you go~!" were removed to make trading faster, and you automatically get back to the barter options after a successful trade so that you can make multiple trades quickly in succession.
- Coal sources were added to the dungeon below the fort building in Witton. (The dungeon in which you meet Sandra.)
- A new construction option south of Thremten on the country overview map gives an permanent increase in Iron production for 25 Budget.
- When you interact with the constructed bakery on the country overview map, it'll now give you the option of a one-time upgrade to improve the production of bread by +2 per turn for 35 Budget.
- The whip in Varea's room in Manastyr is now obtainable. It's on the level of a magic dagger, but for M.ATK instead of physical ATK. The whip has a rune, glyph, and orb augment slot.
- The android version now has an option to import and export save files.

Update 24.09.13

 

Update 24.09.13 changes:
- The new character Lum was added to the brothel. Lum's event starts when you talk with the manager of the brothel on the left side in the brothel. She should have an !-icon above her head when you can trigger the event.
After the introduction of Lum, leave to the worldmap and re-enter the brothel. When you go up the stairs now, a new event with Lum in a forest will trigger.
During the event in the forest are a few optional dialogs, which you only get when Alcena is one of your vanguard leaders.
After the event in the forest, talk with Lum again for another new dialog.
For these new events to trigger, you need Allisa (the elf from Orchel) in the brothel, and Pandora must be in your bedroom.
- A new quest "Airhead" for a story with Tabsy and Amara was added. To unlock the quest, you need Tabsy's first dialog at her farm, Amara established as caretaker of Kayelinth's farm near Aldlyn, and 1x water lamia, cowgirl, and big harpy released at Tabsy's farm. When you have all requirements when you enter Tabsy's farm, she'll have an !-icon above her head and give you the new quest.
During the quest, you'll get an additional dialog part when you also have 1x small harpy, drider, and arachne monstergirls released at Tabsy's farm.
- A full body CG for Tabsy was added.
- A full body CG for Amara was added.
- A new event with the Thanka oni family starts in act 1 of the time skip map in Calterburry. Requires that you finished their previous events, to the point where Angrika is a vanguard leader for your army. The event has one CG scene in act 1, which unlocks a second CG scene in act 2.
- A new icon below Aldlyn on the teleport orb screen allows you to teleport directly to the worldmap now.
- A bug with Ellanore's events was fixed.
- Black Twin Towers of Honor daily challenges changes: On monday, you're still confused but you get 300% Max HP and +20% evasion. On Tuesday, the HP reduction to 1% was changed to 10%. The hit-rate reduction on Wednesday was reduced from -50% to -40%.
- The pregnancy icon for Ash is now blue when she got pregnant by Brad and not Ryen.
- The pages "Central 4" and "Non-human 4" were added to the CG room.
- I changed what Kayelinth's farm looks like on the worldmap, so that it's better visualized that you can enter a different area in that spot than with the farm below, which bring you to Aldlyn.
