Bugs And Development Focus

• TangentialThreat did a nice write up on how NetherFactories are going to work and why you would want them, I do suggest reading it

• As outlined here thanks to Flaminius's testing we can see that the issue with printing presses starts at the 5 page or so mark. Everything else seems to work ok, but the costs on all of this do need to plummet.

• Bastions need fixing.

• Awhile back, we sitched from quonic's generously hosted wiki to our own wiki at civcraft.org. I think most of the content has transitioned, but are there old pages still missing? If there are some old articles that haven't been moved over then feel free to download the images or pages and edit them in. We highly encourage using the wiki to document the history and legacy of your cities.

• PrintingPresses are broken, we should fix them and then drop the cost like a rock until printing books is actually done. Thoughts on adjusted costs (Assuming they are ever actually fixed or broken in the first place)?

• I need to set this up when time allows, Jawa told me how.

• Civdisease development has caught the flu. We have a repository just waiting for commits.. How hard could it be to code in overdose effects for pufferfish abuse?

ttk2's thinking corner

• Ok it seems that Wither Skeletons are spawning without much hesitation in the nether, but their population in the over-world has dropped considerably. Since there is no net change to the number of skeletons I am not sure if I should take action to increase their spawning in the overworld back to pre nether-factory levels.

• It seems people have bargaining stage for NetherFactory scaling, we have thought of most of the little exploits to try and circumvent it and major glitches will be reversed, while I do like to reward cleverness totally getting around the scaling cost will not be tolerated, that being said I look forward to seeing if any groups manage to tweak things in their favor.

• I would still like to get PrintingPresses cost nerfed/fixed

• Never a boring day in modmail sigh

• I just realized my school GDrive account is unlimited, must resist urge to abuse.
