Extra Bonus Wednesday: Maps, Machines & Enchanted Forests

Happy Wednesday! Maybe Housing R2 wasn't enough for you? In that case, you should check out today's new things.

We've modified the world maps to show which streets you've visited and which you've yet to. We also changed teleport (from the map) to only allow you to go places you've been before. This should make getting the completionist achievements much easier.

Did you already learn Woodworking and Metalworking? Then head over to your nearest tool vendor and pick up parts for the new Metal Machine and Woodworker.

If you're worried about not having enough wood for your construction projects, worry no longer. Several Enchanted Forests have been found around Ur. Take a wander around Groddle Forest, Tamila and Rasana.

  • I must have a log jam in my woodworker--it says it's still in use but has long since quit sawing logs.  Reloaded, kicked it, drank a beer and it still doesn't work.
    For anyone who hasn't started using the new machines--this might be a good time to head to the bogs for fuel cells. Damn fuel-guzzlers already ate 10 of my fuel cells.

  • Booknerd- we're aware of the problems with the woodworker and are working on them. Sorry! If you can recall details of what transpired when it happened, please let us know as we haven't quite figured it out.

  • this street thing is already making me feel obsession.

  • Huh.  I've just learned the hard way that "harvest [and clear]" is now the default action on wood trees.

  • That'll get changed back :)

  • Worse than "harvest and clear" it was poison that came up first for me. Glad it will be changed back.

  • I love the new stuff, but everything in my world house is teeny! Even the plots don't fit right! (Not a good thing!)

  • Thanks for the updates...I'm not sure I said yet how much I love and appreciate the new street maps.  I know this is something we have asked for, for a very long time, and I do appreciate that it was finally implemented.  While it still has a few bugs at time (like displaying all the streets as completed when they aren't and vice versa), at least a reload of the map eventually fixes this...I'm trying to hold off until the switch to imagination to complete my maps right now...but wanted to say that it is a great improvement to the game maps. 

    Love the new machines...even if they are fuel cell hogs...I would appreciate more of a completion status for the wood and metal machines though (like for smelting, grinding, petting, watering, harvesting, etc).

    Surprised to see how quickly the enchanted forests cleared out...but I did love that running through one gave me plenty of boards.  Still need to find the other two, but love the idea of the ever replenishing wood areas.  Thanks!!

  • I second b3achy's call for a completion status bar for the wood and metal machines. I would also like to suggest that when there is 30 energy in the woodworker machine for example that the 'max' stop at 30.
