Spirit Of The Island News

Hello!

We are excited to reveal Buried Treasures - our first major update, coming out April, 4th.



We bet you are curious about the new additions to the world of Spirit of the Island. Here's a little preview of the new features, that will be available in the game:

Archaeology - the main theme of the update! Now you will be able to dig in various spots and precious relics and expensive treasures, But don't be quick to sell them, though!
History House - that's where History House (or a Museum of sorts) comes in! It's a brand new tourist attraction where you can display your amazing finds.
Weapons and Armour - one of the most awaited features in the game! With the Buried Tresures update, you'll surely need more protection in your journeys. Stock up on resources!
New Drops - all our creatures will have various new material drops, including relic shards - you'll be able to assemble these and make special relics, either for sale or for your History House.
Two New Islands - for a total of 6! We might have a surprise here as well *wink wink*
New Creatures - just in time to test your new armour and weapons!

We actually have an important question to our community: where do you want to see the History House - on your property or in the Town? We are open for any of these options, but we'd like to hear your opinion! So we've prepared a small survey - please take part in it! We will check the results tomorrow and make our decision.

Small Update

- Quick fix on saved games, loading maps out of player island.

Hi!

We are ready to release a new update! It brings a ton of multiplayer improvements and should fix most of the remaining problems, especially with bigger farms.

CHANGES

• Improved player collision and action trigger detection. This should help with the hammer and environment collision problems;
  
• Improved world sync between players and servers. Now data is loaded in smaller chunks, Order is organized on reception and the game can only be started when all packages arrived in the right/new order. We know that it sounds like tech mumbo-jumbo, but trust us, it will make everything better;
  
• Improved character movement. Now you shouldn't get stuck as much as before;
  
• Staff building can no longer be constructed. We will unlock it once we add staff to the game.
  

FIXES

• Fixed weird sounds when using shovel or watering Can;
  
• Fixed cows not going to Milking Stanchion;
  
• Fixed Alina map for multiplayer;
  
• Fixed wrong translation for Animal food;
  
• Fixed wrong chat option with NPCs after you got a quest from the town board;
  
• Fixed continue chat button sometimes appearing when it should not;
  
• Fixed random crash when talking to NPCs;
  
• Fixed Fishing stats not saving for players;
  
• Fixed big worlds getting stuck at the connection window.
