Patch note, 5 November 2020

A record of what changed on this day, imported from the announcement as it was written. It is not kept up to date: for how the game works now, read the page for the thing itself. See all patch notes.

EFFECTS FADE NOTIFY:

  • Players will now be notified when important effects from spells/abilities will fade

WEAPON RETURN FUNCTION:

  • Completely reworked to use a new NWNX plugin, which should not give issues anymore

ITEMS REPLACEMENT SYSTEM:

  • Replaced items replacement system, the new system won’t physically replace the item anymore, but instead will just copy the new properties to the involved item

DUNGEONS INSTANCING:

  • Dungeons and Raids are now instanced. When entering a dungeon for the first time, an instance will be created for any player/party entering (allowing more players/parties to run the same dungeon/raid at the same time!)
  • Improved boss mechanics checks (more stability, instance compliant)
  • Invulnerable mechanic now also available for normal MiniBoss

PLAYERS AFK CHECK:

  • Added a new AFK check for players.
  • If you go AFK with a character for more than 30 minutes, you will be booted

NOTE: Anyone found trying to bypass the AFK check will be heavily punished.
