Developer Update - Terrain Expansion and War System
Hello Xsyon Citizens!
I'd like to give you all a quick update on what's currently in the works. My primary goal at the moment is to wrap up and release two big features - the massive Terrain Expansion and the War System for the War Server.
The Terrain Expansion is nearly ready for release.
This week I will be running extensive tests and fast simulations of creature migration, tree spawning and scavenging distribution in the expansion regions. Next week I will patch any additional zones that have been cleaned up and I will request final feedback on the expansion areas.
As part of this update I've recreated the tree spawning system. I think trees spawn in a better pattern now without issues of over crowding some areas. For this new system I am clearing out and respawning all trees not on tribe land.
I have several players touching up the remaining zones that need a check over. This is a time consuming task and I will likely release the expansion without all the zones open as the systems are ready to go.
The War System has just a few additional features for me to finish implementing and should be ready to go public along with the expanded terrain.
As I am wrapping up these features and will soon have time to work on additional tasks, I have set up a feedback session for players to request minor improvements that they would most like to see.
Please feel free to join us in the Suggestions session on the Xsyon forums.
Enjoy!
