Kaetram v2.2.0 comes in just three days before our anniversary. We've been working tirelessly for this past month to crank our some much-needed content. We have finally added translations for Portuguese, Spanish, Dutch, Russian, Tagalog, and Norwegian. The translations cover the interface, quest dialogs, and server messages. Additional languages will be added in future updates. The Stonk Exchange is by far our biggest feature so far. It allows cross-world trading between players. Simply place a sale or purchase order and go about your day. Though the system is functioning as expected, further tweaks will be made in the future, including the ability to see what items/and amounts are currently on the exchange. Finally, this update brings magic spells, which will slowly phase out the old magic system.
