Dear community,

Our new update to version 8.81 will be released on Tuesday the 25th of April between 10:00 and 12:00.
As you have noticed we have not had a changelog in a while. This was mostly because we worked on larger features like the new Attack of the Horde event and the Tribe Skills feature, which will be activated on the next new worlds.
But this does not mean that nothing else was done. Besides maintenance work like upgrading our backend software and making it compatible to upcoming technologies we also implemented several new features, improvements and bugfixes; which we would like you to give you an overview on.

New features
Upgraded homepage
We improved and slightly changed our homepage design to improve usability and compatibility with mobile devices and smaller screen sizes, as well as fixing several layout and translation issues.

We also updated the "Remember me" functionality to conform with modern standards.

New Hall of Fame
We changed the technical basis of our world archive system. Now the Hall of Fame not only displays the rankings but also a map of the world.

Browser notification for important reports
You will now be informed about important reports by a browser notification in the lower right corner. Clicking on the notification will take you directly to the respective report. This feature can be configured in the settings.

Important reports include: Capturing secrets, Secrets spawning, tribe invitations, friend requests, trained paladins, reports related to tribe wars, reports related to the world endgame, items received, new mentoring apprentices and apprentices finishing mentoring quests

Attack of the Horde
As you know we introduced a new event, the Attack of the Horde. You can find out everything about it in our initial announcement: Here

Tribe Skills
We developed a new gameplay feature to improve the cooperation and team spirit within a tribe. This feature will be active from the next new world onward


Improvements
  • The friends list on the "Command sharing" and "Village notes sharing" screens is now sorted alphabetically
  • The chat no longer overlays the village info popup
  • Notes now also display the year they were created
  • Milestones in the Hall of Fame now include the year they were achieved in
  • The world stats page now displays more settings like the newbie protection and haul setting
Bug Fixes
  • Hotkeys no longer become unresponsive on several browsers if one is pressed for several seconds
  • It is no longer possible to sell more resources to the Premium Exchange than what is in storage and end up with a negative resources balance
  • It is now possible again to refuse open tribe applications when the tribe member limit is reached
  • The "Caught em all" (Rescue the Royalty) achievement report now lists the correct achievement level
  • Under certain circumstances some players were not able to transfer their village to a casual world. This has been fixed

  • The progress of the achievement "Resurrection" is now tracked correctly

  • The shop window will no longer be displayed as a black box for some players
  • The bot-check window will no longer make it impossible for players to hand in finished quests
  • Dismissing an active royalty in Rescue the Royalty no longer also awards bonus silver
  • The popup for the scouting feature in Rescue the Royalty now clarifies that the found royalty will be of the same type, but not necessarily have the same bonus value
  • Improved the performance of the Capture the Crests event on highly populated worlds
  • Having a player multiple times in the recipients list (with different capitalization) will no longer result in an error
