-LOCKED - Art Update: RR level, Mottled Vents and more!
Posted on 2018-08-03 23:32:22
This is quite the change of order compared to our normal schedule due to IRL matters. I covered this Friday with a quick art update - unfortunately I had no time to work on mutie file updates, but hopefully it may bring you joy that they'll be my only work for a long while going forward!

Main Art Update


New Reptile Roundup Level!
A new RR level, "Woodland", is now available for everyone! It's paired with a Gaboon Viper skin, for those with brave, special eyes.

New Craftable Decor
Bi, known also as Raphionacme burkei, is a Water Root plant. You can craft it from 15x Water Roots. It's the perfect solution for any leftover items after the Droughts end.

New Applicator:
Kimanjano Mottled Vents is a new marking shape, introduced today via a craftable applicator. You will need 100x Honey Bush, 20x Dream Root, 20x Uzara, 20x Umganu and 20x Uqume to craft it! It's an inverted Mottled Rosette type of marking, so it comes in a matching Leopon-based colour.

New Battle Species!

* Calidea dregii is a new Rare Explore beetle that comes in 6 skins!
* Sphodromantis viridis is a new Rare Nemesis, available in the Gorilla Enclave. It also comes in 6 skins!


SEPARATION


Hotfixes this week:
* Fixed Zer, etc. manes for Mane Feathery
* Fixed Dirty Fur decor clipping over eyes for poses
* Fixed White Feline Unders for Female Primal

* Updated pausing on Fire Escape / Poacher Chase
+ Now pauses when moving focus from the game
+ When game loses focus, keyboard control resumes as normal (meaning typing 'P' in the chat won't pause/unpause the game)
* Choosing to "Hide Event Activity" will now set your "Thirst" bar properly to 0%, allowing you to battle NPCs if you don't want to participate in the August event

ANNOUNCEMENTS


Announcing a Change Regarding Friday Updates
Starting in September, we’ll be moving to a single monthly site development update alongside the usual event updates that occur at the start of the month. Expect these site development updates to occur on the second Friday of each month. Once the site development update has been announced, for the remainder of the month, there will still be a news post every Friday to announce the raffle lioness winners, new polls, and little comic doodles. Additionally, we’ll be adding weekly rare item raffles hosted by our team to make sure you all still look forward to every Friday! :D We’ll also be including lists of any potential bug fixes and adjustments that may have occurred during that week.

To sum it up:
* Every first day of the month, there will be an event news update which includes new monthly changes, event mechanics, and so on.
* On the second Friday of each month, there will be a site development update. It will include both art and coding updates at once, giving us more time and space to work on bigger projects, such as expanding explore.
* Every other Friday will have a smaller, community-oriented news post.

False Advertisement Clarification
In light of the introduction of the “Double Uterus” mutation, we would like to remind everyone of our rules regarding “false advertising” and “scamming”, as well as how the Lion Scrotum item functions. Lion Scrotums have a 25% chance per cub to pass on the mother’s mutation to said cub.
There is no guarantee that using a Lion Scrotum on a Double Uterus lioness will result in her birthing a Double Uterus cub; just because the Falcon’s Eye informs you that the cub has an adult mutation, that doesn’t mean it’s *guaranteed* to be a Double Uterus. There’s still the possibility of the cub being assigned a random adult mutation. With that being said, we understand players are eager to sell their Double Uterus offspring.
Please remember that advertising an adolescent or cub as a “guaranteed Double Uterus lioness” is technically against our rules - you cannot guarantee the mutation did indeed pass even with the use of a Lion Scrotum, unless the lion in question has aged up to adult.
We are content with players advertising them as a “potential Double Uterus lioness”, so long as any potential buyers are aware that if the lion turns out to have a mutation other than Double Uterus, they cannot have their purchase refunded, nor can they report the seller for scamming/false advertising.

Trainee Moderator Announcement
First off, we would like to thank all of you that have submitted applications since the opening of our permanent moderator applications! We have been carefully observing and going over every submission, and are happy to announce we have added on a group of new moderators that we will be training for the next month or so - don’t be surprised to see some new green paws around the site!

If you have applied, and your application was rejected, we hope that this does not deter you from applying again in the future. Everyone is welcome to submit an application every two months, so long as you do not have one currently pending review.

Lion Page Discussion Topic
Some of you may remember that earlier in the year, we had a developer stream in which we asked the userbase what aspects of the site they would like to have updated for convenience. One of these adjustments included an update to the “Lion Page” to make it more user-friendly and condensed. The thread link below will direct you to a Game Development thread containing a mockup for this new page. We would be extremely grateful to gather your feedback and opinions on the current mockup, as well as any tweaks, necessary changes, etc. that you feel the page needs in order to be more streamlined and easier to access.

SEPARATION

Raffle Lioness


Congrats Hawke (#50471)! You have won the last raffle lady!
New lady with the Rwenzori BG and Steele Margay is up for impressing in Special Lioness area in Crossroads or in NEWS section under News Post List!

Regarding Solaris
The method for obtaining the Solaris base will be announced on next Friday's coding update! Please stay tuned.

Polls and Dev Notes
Oh gosh! Again very even poll results, however the 6/6 days of both season looks to have a stronger lead. We'll take that into consideration, thank you for your votes!

LINK - New poll! To reflect the trends on Lioden, should we include more mutations for Explore Encounters? Folded Ears, Piebald lions, perhaps even other animals, etc.


SEPARATION

Next Update: Coding update! Website tweaks, bug fixing, new features, etc.!

Just a little something...

"We are content with players advertising them as a “potential Double Uterus lioness” with the option to have the purchase refunded if the lioness does not end up being a Double Uterus. In this case, if the refund is not followed through with, this will then fall under “scamming”, and the offending party will be reprimanded as such."

Why would players be forced to refund the lioness if it was only advertised as a "potential" double? They're just saying that the lion might be a double uterus, not that she IS, there is no promise. If you want to buy this cub, you win or you lose, but there really is no reason to ask for a refund.
Would be like demanding a refund when you don't win a raffle...

Katze: This is a very valid point - the post has been amended to reflect this. Thank you so much for pointing it out!
