Updated the server-side attack routines, the main purpose was to be able to Return promise's from the attack() functions - which requires every response to be refactored and documented - along with this change, also added a way to easily compensate for ping delays and increase dps! The new attack documentation and event documentation includes all possible scenarios like reflection, damage return, mobbing, stacked damage and so on - If I missed any, feel free to let me know New character property: character.ping - calculates an average value for your character's ping, mainly by recording the network round-trip of the attack events 2 new ranger skills: Hunter's Mark and Piercing Shot - Thanks to Spadar's design on Discord/#new_ideas - From early feedback, it seems Piercing Shot needs some balancing :)

After Big Dad's suggestion on Discord, modified the Code/character object to lock most of its read-only variables and log an error if someone tries to change them manually. It's an issue newcomers stumble onto frequently, this change will solve the issue practically and prevent confusion
NexusNull on Discord discovered and reported an endgame bug which allowed him to buy anything by making his gold amount to become NaN. After the discovery and patch, re-visited all server routines once again. Hopefully something like this won't happen again but I personally believe there will always be exploits, when they happen, and if they get abused, there's a system to roll the game back to a previous point in time. We are lucky to have players like him onboard that report instead of abuse so we can continue playing without a rollback. send_cm can now send local messages, so if your characters are all on Steam, or if they are all on Web, they can communicate with send_cm, even if they are on different servers! Nearing the end of the week, started working on the Cosmetics system, it's going really well, prototyped the interface and possible customisation options

Changelist:

- character.on("attack") event - character.on("heal") event - game.on("attack") event - game.on("heal") event - Updated attack() function and documentation - Monster attacks now emit regular "hit" events too - Ranger Skill: Hunter's Mark - Ranger Skill: Piercing Shot - character.ping - Code function: reduce_cooldown() - send_cm now sends local messages too - Nerfed Energize's party % contribution - Party character limit is now 9! - Updated Ent's drop table

There are no quests, no guides you have to strictly follow to the letter. No objectives either. You can do anything you want. Even farming the lowest monster will yield satisfactory results! You can trade, gamble in tavern, party with friends, pvp solo with your rouge or go after rare loots!


Adventure Land wasn't originally a Code based game, during early development, it ended up a bit like a Clicker MMORPG, simple but fun. Then came Code, to let machines do the clicking! So it's not something extremely complex no one can understand, it's just basic automation!


Mage, Warrior, Rogue, Ranger, Priest and Merchant. All with different, easy to understand, but unique skills. There are no skill trees or the need to pick attributes, it's all automatic to keep things simple. Items provide some depth, and Code adds some variation to the mix.


There's a lot to work on. Daily Events, Paladin Class, Pets, Guilds (or Familias, as they will be small), New Zones, New Items, New Skills. All features are shaped and vetted by the playerbase.
