Updating Stable

[Tom]

It is our current #1 priority and we are working on it, but I can't give an ETA.

[Revan]

I can't wait. I reckon the big bang is going to be a lot of fun!

[Darksun]

Will the stable islands also receive a population and food redistribution like the testing islands have?

[Draco Tanos]

Believe Tom said yes to that before.

Yes

[Velax]

Is there somewhere that lists all the changes we'll be seeing on stable?

[Tom]

Not yet, but that's a really good idea and we should definitely do it.

Anyone who plays on both worlds want to make a start? The dev team can then add whatever you've missed, but it would help us if someone else started.

Created a wiki page here: http://wiki.battlemaster.org/wiki/Changes_to_stable

I only have adventurers on the testing islands, so the information I could add is limited. Anyone else, feel free to add stuff.

pop/food/gold rebalance..

eh.. there isn't much to it really.. basically.. city gets less pop, others (most of them) get more. towns and would be pretty much neutral or slight deficit regarding self sufficiency in food. in any case it's not something that you can plan for... if you don't produce food, you still have to buy them. if you produce tons.. you sell, just like before.

only big thing is that food is harvested every day.

there's also new TO ... everyone does their bit actively

I remember a while back there was a discovery about how the price of buildings increased incorrectly (with each one built). It was found (by Tom) when decreasing the overall price of buildings to compensate for the new granary building.

I presume that the building cost fix was carted across to stable? And presumably we shall be receiving granaries and reduced costs once the changes go live to stable?

[Peri]

I guess the biggest change is the new estate system.

[BardicNerd]

Will the pop rebalance affect all islands equally?  FEI is already much more balanced in that regard compared to other islands . . . although it has more cities.

[Penchant]

In my opinion the new estate system should not be put on stable until it is finished on testing.

In my opinion the new estate system should not be put on stable until it is finished on testing.

What needs to be done still? I think what's there, would be hugely helpful in 2 of the 3 realms I play in.

[Dante Silverfire]

The new estate system almost needs to be moved to stable asap in a few realms. It will completely liven up the game again to allow realms to not only work with less nobles, but also for more interactions to occur internally. This is a good change.
