New Build 0.515 for Beta Testing

[p]Apply for the closed beta on the Discord! https://discord.gg/dQ6SPrdxs3[/p][p][/p][p]New Build 0.515 for beta testing Summary [/p]
  • [p]There is a new Hints sytem that replaces what the tutorial was using. These hints are now in a movable window and have expanded details.,[/p]

[p] Release Notes [/p]
  • [p]Add new hints system - this replaces the old popup hints during quests. Hints are now shown in a floating/movable window. Each hint can be closed and has an expandable area with more detail. Hints show in context of things happening in the game. For example when you enter combat stance, a hint is shown explaining how to toggle in or out of it. Hints are intended to quickly help players learn the game mechanics during the early stages of the game.,[/p]
  • [p]Changed how the player action menu handles left arm bundle items - now you will see a single action in the menu for "Drop Left Arm Bundle". Clicking that action will drop all items from your left arm, either the underarm or stomach bundle,[/p]
  • [p]Loosen new character starting skills for the demo since there isn't much room to progress, and I want the starting player to not feel like a total beginner, this affects camera zoom, combat speed etc[/p]
    • [p]Change camera max zoom from 2.5 to 3.5 and factor from 50 to 75,[/p]
