Transponder Updates (on Potato)

It is now possible to insta-rebuild destroyed blocks from a transponder match. Via /restorelist, you can get a list of the five most recent matches and how many blocks were destroyed in each. With /restorelimbo, you can restore destroyed blocks from a given match. Currently the cost for this is 1 plat per instant rebuild. (Shown in the video at 4:56)
Super fancy UI for when starting & finishing match (check it out in the video at 4:26)
Fixed bug where mobs would attack other attackers
Match observers should not be targeted or be able to cause damage to mobs
Block HP now scales to its relative cost for most gold blocks & doors
Block & Player HP heals to full HP at the beginning of a match
Disallow changes to townpvp during a transponder battle

Font Changes in Potato Testing

Some small changes to how fonts are handled:

Non-english language: will render using entirely system TTF fonts (looks nicer & more consistent than mixing fonts within the same sentence)
Custom texture pack authors can now dump in chatFont.ttf, questHeaderFont.ttf, and questFont.ttf files into HTMudWeb.zip to change up the in-game fonts

These changes are ~~only currently being tested on Potato~~ live.

Here’s some random fonts for texture pack testing:

Seperate output window for long commands

Commands with long results now output to their own windows. This works for: /rewardblocks, /publicpad list, /towns, and /credits.

Speaking of /credits, if you purchased a reward tier that includes a game credit, it’s now been added. Thanks!

Special thanks to folks who spotting the ESC crash & scroll speed issues. 🙂

Delivering Pocket Universes

If you bought the Second Pocket Universe / Town Expansion tier during Octoberbit and filled out the survey, those have now been delivered / expanded. If you didn’t fill out the survey yet, please do.

Town Expansions

Have been expanded, enjoy!

Second Pocket Universes

You can get a list of your pocket universes with /listpockets, it will show a map id for each pocket you own.

You can then teleport to each pocket with /telepocket <map id>, ie: /telepocket 123456

In your inventory, you will find a brand new Townstone. Place that in your pocket where you like, then return to the survey. On the main page, there is a new reward option: “Second PU – I received it and placed TS, now ready for expand.” Submit that to notify me that you are ready for the town expansion to 5×5.

Extra IRL Shirts

shirt preview

I ordered extras t-shirts for a trade show late last year and didn’t end up needing them. They’ve been hanging out in my file cabinet ever since.

I have a Large and an Extra Large available for the next couple days if anyone wants them.

DoublePlat

Our fundraiser promotion is officially over! Thanks everyone for making this by far our most successful one yet with $6,789 raised. You’re amazing!

Today fundraiser gold & plat was doubled and the region expander blocks delivered to player inventories:

Lawyerhats & Trap Kit are out

If you backed the $50 fundraiser tier, you can now get Lawyerhats via this page!
If you backed the $25 fundraiser tier, you can now get your Trap Kit via this page!
Added left/right art for shirts & accessories — unfortunately this changed all the position indices, so you need to re-equip these items via the shop.

Coming soon: Lawyerhats (Octoberbit reward)

I was dared to make this on the livestream. Challenge accepted.

Also, there’s already fanart of this before I even was able to post this blog 😀

One day only: Pumpkin Mask

pumpkinMask Fresh in for October 31st, grab the Pumpkin Mask today in-game under Clothing >> Accessories. It will only be available to purchase today(ish), but can be equipped anytime after purchase.

Note there’s a minor lighting bug with it currently where the lighting is slightly off when moving left — I need to make accessories support different textures for left/right like hats do.
