Warfare reset will happen tomorrow (Friday) sometime around 6PM server time, going straight into WTF Mode. I've based this on the votes and the current gang scores as well as feedback from various players.

I see TC has been demolishing buildings to get GP back and I want to reiterate something that we probably don't mention often enough - we calculate the GP automatically you are to be refunded automatically when we reset warfare. So no need to worry about demolishing buildings, but feel free to do it anyway.

I was thinking we could go into Bob's map on Monday (either 12:01 AM or 12:00 PM, leaning towards the latter since most would be asleep during the former).

I do understand that some players would prefer starting on Sunday so that they have a day on the weekend to do this, so let me know in the comments if you'd prefer we go into Bob's map on Sunday (12:00 AM) instead of Monday. I'll probably start a game vote in a bit as well.

I've also updated the Combat box to show player equipment, show your combat abilities (henceforth referring to them as your stances; this will be relevant soon), and re-order the attack texts based on speed like we do in regular attack pages.
Speaking of the stances, when you're SDing someone, they will be fighting you based on your default selected stance (quick/aimed/cover) in options.

Wasteland now supports real-time combat.

Yeah. R e a l t i m e c o m b a t.



(Brief note: Combat is logging your guard kills. That was an oversight when I added general wl npc combat logging so I'll remove that soon.)

This update also adds a pretty insane and comprehensive WL editor I made:



It'll help devs make changes faster to the WL, try out new/crazy maps, and basically lets me be more dynamic with my occasional wl events.

This editor alone took an insane amount of work and in the process of it, I changed some pretty fundamental things about the wasteland system as part of my continuing sweeping changes (I'm up at ~50+ files changed, ~5-6k lines of code so far, with this update alone being ~2.9k) of one of our oldest, most massive, and most fundamental core systems.

What changes did I make in particular that affect you? (Clues in the editor pic)

Find out on Saturday, the 31st. I'll be resetting WL around the 30th midnight and putting us into WTF mode Saturday. We'll go into the new WL Map designed by UnicornBob soon after.

To create a path for more variance in builds and future items that will be released we want to recieve your feedback about the combat system.
The poll is anonymous and helps us to determine your view of the combat in legacy and gather input for improvments.

The first stat we want to focus on is Armor.
It has its advantages however we feel that armor doesn't have enough impact on fight results.
We want armor builds to feel more rewarding to the players who decided to prioritize it.

Thank you, every vote counts!

This is a quick one.

Steven made art for a Halloween job, so I coded it in. I'll be making it available at the next 12am tick. That is 24 Oct 2020 00:00:00. It's currently on Dev already if you want to try it out.

5,000 energy.
1,200 Credit payout.
3 potential drops.
Must be alive to do it, but there is no injury chance.

Yeah, looking at just those raw numbers, Lab is better, but getting an item would instantly make it a better option; as Event jobs do.
