Hello everyone! Finally, the public version can already be considered stable and this means that the next development cycle has already begun. As always, you can take a look at the Roadmap to know the next features that will be included, although you have to remember that they are not done in order. The next major update will bring the Guilds or Clans system, that will include other features on which it depends, such as new services, the beginning of the development of the economy, new commands and improvements to the scripting system and a renewed world generation system among others. As usual, the public build will stop receiving updates until the next major update, and very soon the Nightly version will open with the last version of the game available, where you can help test the new features and report bugs before moving it to the public build. From now on, the Nightly development cycles will be much shorter, since all necessary base features are finally implemented. Therefore, major updates of the public version will be more frequent. As always, thanks for your support and suggestions. More news soon!
