Update:14-05-24
Welcome back.
New Features
Mining
Mining has been added to the game.
Crafting Changes
Crafting has been changed to our new queue system. Components can no longer be crafted simultaneously. When choosing to craft new items, they will instead be added to a queue where the trader will work on each order one at a time. We will look to add quality of life features in the future such as Cancelling orders, adding to rearranging orders and allowing "advanced" work orders where items can be crafted even if the components are not yet in the player's inventory, but the resources are.
Tool Upgrading
Tools (both Axes and Pickaxes) now required actual crafted components to be upgraded. You can use both the Carpenter and the Blacksmith to obtain the correct components to upgrade your tools.
New Rendering System
We have moved to Unity's new rendering system which allows us to utilize a range of new rendering features. Due to this, our lighting and shaders have not yet been optimised or upgrading leading to a temporary decrease in visual fidelity. We will be resolving these issues slowly over the next few updates as well refine and test these changes with the new system.
