-LOCKED - July Development Update #57!
Posted on 2023-07-14 23:42:13

Adjustments & Streamlining


For today's update, we have made some changes to existing features, which many of you have been requesting for some time. We hope these changes makes your time on Lioden much easier and smoother!

* You can now breed your own lionesses directly from your main male's page. We have streamlined the breeding details section for main male owners - the information for studding isn't needed twice, so we have replaced the second studding information with just a simple dropdown to choose one of your own lionesses.


* When rejecting a stud request, you can now give a reason for the rejection which will be sent along with the notification to the player who requested the stud. The message is optional and can be left empty.

* Branch items no longer have a default fee of 9999999 - items will enter the branch at 0 SB and 0 GB and will not be listed for sale in the player's branch until a price is set.


* Branch prices can now be synchronized with other items of the same type in your branch. Set the price of one item, and then click the new "Sync" button to synchronise all other items to the price you've set.


* Silver Beetles, Gold Beetles, and Monkey Teeth can now be transferred through linked accounts as can be done with event currency. This is in the same place as the Event Currency transfers and is only available for linked accounts.


* All game shops have been unified in code - this was a pretty big undertaking that is more background, and contributing towards the recode of the site. You won't notice much of a change overall, but it will now be easier for us to make global changes to how shops display items, what information can be added. Previously this had to be done shop-by-shop - we can now edit one piece of code to update all shops at once.

* In the theme of this, we have added small badges that show how many items you currently have in your Hoard or Buried collection so you can easily see from the shop page how many you already have before purchasing, without having to dip back to your hoard.

* Additionally with shops, we have added a filter so that you can remove items types you're not interested in from the shop view. This will not "stick" between page loads as we always want all items to be viewed by default, but it's easy to check/uncheck different item types to make finding an item easier.


* You can now craft multiple Nesting Materials at once in Monkey Business. Simply select as many crafting items as you'd like, Monkey Business will calculate how many Nesting Materials you will get and display it on the button before you craft. When you hit the button, same as usual, it will take the correct uses from the items and award the Nesting Materials.


* The pregnancy icon in the den listing for your lions is changing colours. It was previously a bit ambiguous exactly which stage the pregnancy was at, but it will now fade from Yellow being stage 1, Orange as stage 2, and Pink/Red as stage 3.

* When you use up a carcass that isn't stacked, you will be taken to a shortcut Hoard page displaying only Food items - hopefully this should help if you are feeding multiple different items to your lions. The same goes for Amusement items.

* Custom decors are now automatically excluded from the Item Catalogue by default. The checkbox has been adjusted to "Include Custom Items?", and checking this will display custom decors in the Item Catalogue.

We're also working on a new system for Catalogue, which will enable us to enter an item source manually, so you will have an idea where to find something - such as crafting, event drop, etc!

The next new marking shape will be centered around RMA exclusives!

Bug Fix

We'll be working on updating art bugs in the following week! Stay tuned, we'll sum them up on the next Community Update!

I know right :) I always have written down everything then went through my hoard normal and buried, just to see what I do have :) Then I make purchases :) This will make it so much more easy :)
