LIF:MMO Official Updates

2nd Wave of Fixes!
12 July - Life is Feudal (Bobik)
Announcement #158 2nd Wave of Fixes for the First Major Update (0.13.5.0)
This patch is devoted to minor fixes as well as some tweaks and optimizations that we believe are necessary.
We also want to share that we’ve received a lot of feedback from our players on the Arena feature - we’ve taken the suggestions on board and are working on implementing some of these changes and also some fine-tuning that is needed. One of the features (queue size) is already dropping in this patch! The Global Arena queue and Team Arenas are in development (no ETA at the moment, but we will keep you up-to-date!).
We’ve also added additional logging and debugging into the code, to be better able to track and check a guild’s rating calculation algorithm. We want to make sure that guild ratings are as close to the real value of the guild as possible.
And lastly, we’ve also introduced a rather major optimization to the server side calculations; the results should be quite noticeable in crowded battles! But the fight is not over yet - the process of optimization is a constant and endless process that we’re continually working hard on.
Patch Notes (ver. 0.13.5.0):
New Features and Tweaks:
• Added information about an arena’s queue while player is waiting in said queue

Movable Objects Naming and More Fixes!
20 JULY - LIFE IS FEUDAL (BOBIK)
Announcement #159 Movable Objects Naming and More Fixes! (0.13.6.2)
With this update, we have implemented a long-awaited feature, enabling players to name any movable object in game. Navigating through your warehouse’s interior, searching for a specific crate or the correct trade cart will be faster and sufficiently easier now!
Outpost access rules were created the same as the default access rules for the realm claim of the guild that created the outpost. We’ve received numerous requests to implement the access rules management system for the outposts and we’re working on it as one of the next features.
Patch Notes (ver. 0.13.6.2):
New Features and Tweaks:
• You can now give names to movable objects on your claimed lands - making your guild items management easier for everyone
• You can no longer repair objects during JHs
• Premium movable items can no longer be snatched from your claim during JH now
• Players that do not have ‘Can enter’ access rule can no longer reconnect inside a town claim outside of JH
• During JH, players that are allied with a claim owner have the same amount of access as a raider of a claim and are no longer handicapped in their abilities
• Added early checks for some abilities to see if they have enough resources or not for a start
• You can now use the ‘Search for materials’ ability to find branches
• Some weapon balance tweaks:

Some important Tweaks and Fixes
28 JULY - LIFE IS FEUDAL (BOBIK)
Announcement #160 Some important Tweaks and Fixes (0.13.7.1)
We have decided to add another layer of protection for the movable objects that are placed inside buildings in order to minimize the harm that can be caused if players use any exploits that are currently still in the game. We are aware of these exploits and will address them in future updates.
We want to thank you for your continued support, patience and help with testing the game and the massive PvP features with us. In the last few weeks, we have gathered a lot of important data with your help and used it to provide necessary code optimizations for the game - this patch contains a bunch of these optimizations too!
We’re also happy to share with you the fact that we are only a few steps away from starting tests of our *nix OS server build on the production servers. We are going to be using this new operating system on our hardware servers and it is much more suited to high loads and heavy demands placed on these servers. This will allow us to remove virtualization, which stands between our software and the hardware servers, and has caused multiple exotic infrastructure bugs during the operation of the game. Server-side calculations and networking performance should also be significantly improved when we introduce *nix OS!
Patch Notes (ver. 0.13.7.1):
New Features and Tweaks:
• Movable objects that are placed inside the unmovable objects (warehouses, houses, keeps etc) can no longer be opened, looted or moved during JH raids. We’ve implemented this feature to prevent different types of exploits, which allowed players to squeeze into the warehouses and loot them while defenders were fighting elsewhere.
• Search for materials ability should now give a more adequate amount of branches and other resources
• Added a system message when the ‘Fatal Hp Conversion’ is triggered containing the information how luck affected this proc
• Fixed bugs and adjusted the logic of hit detection and damage calculations of shields equipped on the back or when a player carries two shields (one on the back, another in hand)
• Tweaked tooltips of the food items. You can now see its complexity and how much you will be satiated by it.
• Fixed, tweaked and reworked a lot of issues related to the first steps of newcomers on the newbie islands
• Coin quality no longer affects the amount of support points it gives after sacrificing them in the guild monument
• Some minor cosmetic art fixes and tweaks (icons, models etc)
--- ‘Battle Survival’ skill tweaks ---
• Added a 60 second cooldown after ‘Fatal Hp Conversion’ proc
• Skill raise from the ‘Fatal Hp Conversion’ ability was significantly increased
• Luck now properly affects the chance of doubling the amount of fatal Hard HP damage that is transformed into Soft HP
Bug Fixes and Optimizations:
• Optimized the usage of low level 3rd party library event calls - this should reduce the amount of visible lag on the servers
• Optimized server side coordinate calculations - this should provide a performance boost to the servers
• Optimized some client-side calculations
• Fixed some logical bugs involving kingdoms, their vassals and derelicted statuses on Green worlds
• Fixed some incorrect timeout calculations, which caused issues connecting to the game servers for players with slow Internet connection speeds
• Fixed some issues and reworked the players’ title system to work properly
• Fixed prices calculations when young animals are sacrificed to the God
• Fixed outpost claim disappearing in some cases

It’s All About the Guilds. Almost.
16 August - Life is Feudal (Bobik)
Announcement #161 It’s All About the Guilds. Almost.(0.13.8.5)
Today's patch contains an equal amount of fixes and tweaks that are mostly devoted to our recent features: Outposts and Guild ratings - but there are some other tweaks and features included here too! We hope you like it!
Patch Notes (ver. 0.13.8.5):
New Features and Tweaks:
• Outpost lands of Order and Band types of guilds (that doesn't have guild monument) are now treated as in the state of war. Such outposts can now be captured by other guilds during JH, objects placed on its land can be destroyed or used during JH and such guild members attacked and killed without alignment penalties if they’re on the outpost lands.
• ‘Proxy guilds’ (rank 10) guilds are not taken into an account when making derelicted checks on Green worlds.
• T1 guild monuments are now automatically repaired after successful maintenance outside of JH
• Shields on the back should now properly lose durability if being hit
• Incomplete buildings and objects now take significantly longer to decay and disappear (up to 24 real life hours). You can use the ‘Inspect’ ability on incomplete buildings to see their durability and how soon they will decay and disappear.
• Spam attacks on horseback and random attacks being triggered are now fixed. We expect slashing weapons to be more usable now in mounted combat.
• Implemented tooltips for throwing weapons
• A double claim loss penalty will be issued to defenders if they do not field anyone to an IB
• Wild animals should properly react and run away from being hit with a torch now
• Some minor art updates and fixes
Bug Fixes and Optimizations:
• Guild ratings and rank calculations have been reworked, which should fix all known issues with inaccurate calculations
• Notorious bug that would insta-heal horses if packed into inventory while dying is fixed
• Fixed gallop+dismount bug that allowed some players to get over some walls with the help of the horse
• Fixed a hack that allowed a player to observe everything from far above when resting
• Newbie Island quest progression should not be lost after resets of the Newbie worlds
• Stone gatehouse portcullis should not kill players caught while they’re closing
• A couple of fixes for Arenas and IB connection bugs and problems
• Attacking other players after crossing a server node border line in a combat stance should work properly now
• Fixed ‘Chickens' Bounty’ quest - ‘Find the chicken coops’ task now properly ends

• Fixed a memory usage bug that appeared on 8GB graphic cards and caused them to use only a half of the available memory
• Fixed trading post maintenance related crashes
• Some minor server-side optimizations
• Optimized network events batching. This should slightly improve the overall network performance of the game
• A few art updates and fixes.
