Colony Takeover on Dwilight?
« Topic Start: February 27, 2012, 04:43:16 PM »
Will colony takeovers be returned to Dwilight soon? If not, how else may we found a new realm?
Ironsides Family, mainly East Continent and Dwilight. I dip my toe into Atamara here and there

We're currently working on stabilizing things. It's on our agenda, but we're not sure what form it will take yet.

As far as I know, secession still works.

Right now secession is the only way. RTO's also don't work so you can't RTO a city and then secede either.

Will these be fixed before the stable update, or after?

Almost certainly after. They are not high on the priority list.

That is unfortunate.

Would there be a particular problem with allowing old-style colony takeovers while waiting for the new form to be developped?

Somehow I imagine having the old takeover code and new takeover code in place at the same time might break things.

Why did you take out CTO any way on Dwilight? Cant you just leave it in until the new takeover system is complete?

CTO was not "taken out". The entire TO system itself was removed and replaced with a new oen.

For almost all islands but Dwilight, no one will really notice. And for Dwilight, we can live with it until there is a chance to put it back in.

Strongholds cannot secede. They never could. Only a true city can secede. And yes, it works.

Not another person looking at Balances Retreat? If so that takes my Tally up to 7 different colony groups all looking to claim that region. Good thing a treaty exists to validate claims.

It's an awfully long walk to enforce...
