Putting Bongo's sneaky ninja update aside, here's a rundown of what my next update will bring.

Hoping this will have a smoother release than my previous update, and not ending up breaking more than it fixes. '

- Gmail like shift-select multiple messages in inboxes.
- Friends list expansion platinum item (+5 slots for 650p).
- Option to bulk delete friends.
- Option to disable all custom titles in forum.
- Players can be muted in wasteland chat, same restrictions as side chat applies.
- Players will receive a combat log message when their threads is being moved to another forum (Similar to edited & deleted posts.)
- Fixes a bug in job end screen that would sometimes result in 1 job being selected, even if the player had enough energy for 2.
- Fixes an issue with the "Move thread" tool that'd sometimes break inboxes for some people.
- Template module for online friends. *

* This is the only thing left on my todo for this round, still have around hundred lines of code to go.

I should be able to have it done and tested within a week or two, whenever I get the chance to finnish it.

Please keep in mind though, that I as usual cannot publish any exact release date on this, it'll be released when it's being released.
But expect it within the next 30 days.

A small update went live today. Here are the patch notes:

Additions:

1) Neon Paint added to the plat store. It is available for use on all current avatar weapons as well as the SWAT Shield and 3 Section Staff.

Bug Fixes:

1) Recipes with Optional Items will now have the correct number of slots listed.

2) Working jobs during a 2x event would grant you pay of the level above your current, unless you had the job maxed out. This has been fixed.

3) 100 daily tokens were being handed out to players without any card, this has been reduced back to 50.

4) If a player had above 50 messages in their inbox because of the upgraded inbox plat item, they could not be invited to clans as it would say their inbox is full. This has been fixed.

Thanks,
Bongo.

In light of Legacy's 13th anniversary, a little impromptu double gains will be starting later tonight (lets say around 7:30 PM server time) and going until...get this...Sunday night 11:59 server time. Yes, that means roughly 4 whole days. Short notice? Yes. But stretched out a little more for that reason.

Keep in mind that double gain includes:
-Double Experience from PVP and Hunt
-Double Item Experience
-Double Honing Experience
-Double payout from jobs
-Double Warfare points
-Double energy per hour (400/hour)

I would like to remind you that boosts will not stack with double gains. So using a book of during this will not work. Boosts such as the 40 energy per hour will work, however.

Also, side note, each gang should have gotten a forum cleanup request from Wolf pertaining to swears and what not. I have something I want to add to that, however. There appears to be a few instances where the filter does not catch everything, for whatever reason. So when the gang leaders check their forums, if the word is filtered (indicated by a red bar over the word), then it is fine. But if it is not caught by the filter, please take note of it and message Wolf with each instance. Just be sure to include which thread and forum it was, the post it was in the thread (1st post, 4th post, etc), and the specific sentence. This will help us figure out why the filter is just picking and choosing what words to filter.

Happy Anniversary all!

Here are the patch notes from the latest update:

1) Crafting Recipe Selection page overhaul. You can filter your recipe list by level or rarity and search for specific recipes. You can click the tiny star in the bottom left corner of any crafting recipe to favorite it. Then if you select the "Show Favorites" checkbox, you will only see recipes that you have previously favorited.

2) Added armor onto misc items. Affected items:

Police Shield: +1 armor
SWAT Shield: +2 armor, -1 acc
Defense Pauldrons: +1 armor, -1 acc
Core Shield: +2 armor
Core Shield Variant: +3 armor

3) Added support for purchase limits on shops. This is so when Will adds timed items to the WFP shop, we can put per person purchase limits on rare items so that they don't flood the market.

4) Moved Astral Bomb up in the ability dropdown in the wasteland, to prevent people from blowing themselves up when trying to use Radiance.

5) Added spacebar hotkey to Shadow Forge page so that you can spam spacebar to craft items quickly as long as you have the materials in your inventory.

Known Issues:

- On the Recipe Selection page, some navigation menus will be hidden behind the UI elements on this page making them unable to be clicked.

- Misc Item images will show as item level 1 with 0 exp, even if they are higher leveled.

- Some recipe thumbnails are missing and have placeholders for now. I have asked Steven to make the images for these.

Big thanks to Steven for designing the slick new crafting thumbnails! This is only the first part of the crafting overhaul I have planned, there is a lot more coming and more cool item images he designed.
