Game Update October 1, 2024

Around 8:45 AM UTC+2, game servers will restart for a game update to be deployed.

New 30-Day "Supercharged" Gels
  • Added a 30-day "supercharged" variant to all five existing types of Power Gels.
    • Supercharged Gels do not stack with Class A to C Power Gels of the same type.
      • To illustrate this, a running Supercharged Gel occupies all three Power Gel slots instead of just one.
      • Loading a Supercharged Gel will overwrite any running Power Gel of the same type (there is a warning message to prevent this from happening accidentally).
    • The effect of a running Supercharged Gel is slightly stronger than the combined effects of Class A to C Power Gels of the same type.
    • Supercharged Gels can only be bought for Gold Coins.
New "Dino Dollar Earnings" Supercharged Gel
  • Added a new type of Gel which is only available in a "supercharged" variant: "Dino Dollar Earnings" will grant a 25% bonus to all your market sale dino dollar revenues.
Other Power Gel Related Changes
  • Prices of all variants of the "Cheap Travels" Power Gel have been reduced by ~12%.
Timed Damage Boosters Added to Shops
  • Both the 14-day and the 30-day Violent Damage Booster are now available at the Ranger Supply Store in Dinoville, and in the Express Store at the top edge of the skillbar.
Site Combat Related Changes
  • The conflict phase cycle will be adjusted to allow for 24/7 battles -- similar to what we had with the "Site Scuffle Bonanza" -- but with even shorter phases: 15 minutes of conflict are followed by just 5 minutes of site protection!
    • The new schedule will take effect as soon as the update is deployed.
  • Attackable sites held by Dinoville can now be drained much quicker (as if Dinoville was a clan with 30 sites held).
  • Adjusted fame item production for sites and Chunks of Gold Ore near Claims to reach a share of 58% fame for sites, 28% fame for gold ore and 14% for clothing.
    • This greatly increases the amount of fame items that are produced in sites.
Other Changes & Fixes
  • T-Rex skills "Brutal Bite" and "Battle Cry" now feature proper sound effects.
  • The weapon attribute "range" now also affects the far range of weapon skills. Previously it was only affecting the range of a weapon's regular attacks.
  • Added confirmation dialog for all item purchases.
  • Dinosaurs, weapons, implants and tech modules can no longer be deleted from ranger profiles.
  • Reduced unneeded manual save jobs to reduce server overhead during combat.
  • Fixed material shader bugs:
    • Fixed falloff effect on highest & ultra graphics settings which caused clipping/too bright specular highlights.
    • Fixed mixing of reflection/specular highlights to not bleed into white.
  • Fixed a bug that caused deactivated achievements to still count for players' total achievement points.
    • Players who had completed those deactivated achievements before will notice a small reduction in their total achievement points.
