Christmas Event Conclusion

The Christmas 2024 event has officially ended. Players can no longer collect additional Christmas 2024 hats, though trading previously collected hats with other players remains possible.

Quality of Life Improvements

Action Queuing System

A new action queuing system has been implemented, allowing players to line up multiple actions to execute sequentially. This feature is particularly beneficial for gathering activities such as foraging, fishing, woodcutting, and mining.

To queue an action instead of performing it immediately, use SHIFT + left mouse button. The shortcut key can be customized through the 'controls' interface.

Resource Respawn Improvements

When collectable resources respawn (including foraging items, fish, trees, brambles, and ores), all matching resources in the same room will now respawn in rapid succession. While this doesn't increase leveling speed, it reduces frustration and complements the new queuing feature.

Additional Interface Improvements

  • The 'Work for Ebsworth' passive activity has been moved to a new station to prevent overlap

  • Venture completion count now displays on the ventures drawer button

  • A gate in Crenopolis now has a changed default action after sufficient quest progression

  • Better clarity that level 200+ passive activities are more powerful but require more than 1 KP to unlock

  • New key-bind for centering the map (default: N)

  • Master volume control added to settings interface

Balance Changes

  • Cooking times for Garlic Herring and Dab Stew adjusted to extend activity duration before restart

  • Minor XP reward adjustments in merchant bounties to reflect recent map changes

  • Table repositioned in Bert's gallery to allow more time for spotting thieves

Technical Improvements

Multi-GPU systems will now automatically fall back to a secondary graphics card if the primary card cannot run the game.

Bug Fixes

  • Wendigo portraits updated to better match in-game appearance

  • Market Chambers walls heightened to properly block javelins and other projectiles

  • Various text errors corrected
