This is a fairly large change and really the first of a chain that will be coming over the next while. This won't affect how most people see combat, but a few will see big changes to their strategy with just this one simple change.

For players level 3 and up, dropping to 1hp in any way (combat, doors, Quests, creature scripts, etc.) will be stunned for 10 hours. This creates an additional fire delay and acts the same as a combat fire delay. This will greatly discourage some of the poor methods of bashing on creatures unarmed/lightly armed for weeks. And it will force some of you to be more strategic in how you approach combat in general.

The 10 hour time is adjustable but is unlikely to change soon. Other enhancements we make to combat/the game will be tied to this as well. Stay tuned and enjoy the current wrench in your xp farm!

Two announcements, both being shoved into one sim news!

A long running complaint about the experience/leveling system in the game has been the absolute advantage of ground combat. It is hard to compete with a dedicated hunter even if you build like crazy and produce a ton. To... combat... this advantage we have added a system to scale various types of XP in the game. Individual adjustments can now be made to the xp system on a percentage based scale. It might take some time to fine tune it to good levels, so keep an eye out for future announcements about adjustments.

Subject to change, here is the list of changes:

Travel experience is doubled (200%)

Production experience is now at 220%

Construction experience is at 130%

Station Construction is at 150%

Space Combat is at 130%

Everything else is staying as is FOR NOW. We will watch and adjust if needed. There is also potential for "double XP weekends/Holidays". A rules page is under construction to display current levels of xp as well.

MOVING ON! Newbie Tutorial System is next!

We announced not that long ago that we were working to change new player experience. This system is now live for newly created characters. There is an option to skip and spawn as 'usual', but the default will be to do the learning quest. At some point we will add in the ability for people to go back and try the quest, but it is not set up yet for that. 

Evan made a really cool guide page for the newbie quest world. He will finish it off soon but for the moment it covers the first half of the quest. Feel free to reference the page so you know what newbies have seen.

http://guide.swcombine.com/wiki/Tutorial_Quests

The list of "Joined in the last 24 hours" will no longer display newbies who... joined in the last 24 hours. It will instead show those that completed the newbie quest in the last 24 hours (or skipped it).

A new challenger approaches! Bandits now have a chance of including the iconic IG-88. See the rules below. Not much else to say here. Enjoy the new droid, if you can catch one.

https://www.swcombine.com/rules/?Security&ID=68

The New Player experience in SWC has not been amazing over the last... forever. A tiny menu that mentions rules and forums are overshadowed by a blinking yellow mail icon where newbies are encouraged to join a group. A ton of the staff support tickets are helping new players spawn, find a group, figure out the game, and so forth. Tutorials are long overdue and should not be ONLY from the faction they might join.

We are happy to announce a complete change to how new players will join the game. Once a character is created, the player is instantly spawned on the Newbie Tutorial Planet. No more awkward "Choose but Don't Choose Starting Location". They will get a DM from a Quest Handler NPC that welcomes them to the game, gives them links to Discord/Question Forum/Newbie Forum, and tells them how to proceed to do the new player quests. These quests will walk a player through SWC's game style, basics of play, and more. Expect new players to know how to walk around, equip themselves, shoot stuff, board entities, pilot entities, chat on forums/discord, and manage NPC quests. This will expand over time but we will announce new features. A full list of features will be released alongside the system later this month via rules pages.

This new generation of newbies will be better equipped and have more wealth than current new players and will be able to choose from a large list of Darkness worlds to start at (after the tutorial) with their starter ship and gear on hand. This wealth is earned via the quest and those who choose to skip the quest will not receive the same rewards. Starter ships will range from scrappy fighters and hefty gunships all the way to small freighters depending on player choices. Hunting equipment won't just be hide armor and a knife either. Depending on preference, new players may be kitted out with passable hunting equipment as well.

Current hope is to release it by the end of the month. It is undergoing final testing and tweaks by the teams, but it is technically completed already (hence this announcement). 

There will no longer be reason to mass recruit via Darkness Messages. Newbies will join the discord and forums looking for help on their tutorial, or to find a group at the prompting of said tutorial. Make sure you have a good forum post or keep an eye on the seeking work forum once this is live. This does not replace faction academies. Your own rules for your group, how to do more complex jobs, and more will still be needed. The Newbie Quests will expand over time but will never replace the advanced stages of working with other players.

I foresee a lot of people will want to do the quest despite not being new. Darkness/Quest worlds will have a way for you to opt-in. It might not be there at release, but it is something we are working to include.

This huge accomplishment was only possible thanks to efforts by the NPC/Quest Team. After Galaxy Fest there was a big recruitment drive for the team (Which is still open for more). This is the first visible results of the new team post-galaxy fest.

On the note of fun gifts from the NPC team... A few NPCs out in the wild might have updated scripts as well for you to discover. I silently add them to the game as they get approved. Never know when a Physical Datacard or Pile of Credits will find its way to you. Keep an eye out for these hidden updates.

If you have any questions/concerns feel free to send me (Baugrems) a message here or on Discord. Whether it be about the Newbie World or Quest team.

Probably the oldest bug we've ever fixed has caused a lot of planets to shift stats and control. Check your planets to see what may have changed. Some adjustments may be needed for optimizations.

Note: The Darkness Worlds losing control will be addressed please don't build there. If you do, I will destroy it and will be hard pressed to refund you.

Mikel edit: The bug affected a few building types behind the scenes not adjusting Crime and Morale properly. Additionally, many Excel wizards have figured out before now that the Crime Each2 list actually contains everything in the Each1 list, even though the Rules do not make that clear. We are working on adding them to the rules list so which facilities are contained in which lists will be more obvious.

Features/Changes:

Items/Droids with custom images can now be repackaged into crates and keep their images.

Recalculating cybernetic surgery to favor morale instead of crime. (Equation is flipped. Your surgery centers may need to move!)

Faulty cybernetic removal is now possible

LISP function additions: get-droid, get-planet, get-current-planet, spawn-bandits, get-pilot, get-commander, changeHull/shields/ionic, get-owner is more generic.

Bugs:

City inventory via web services fixed.

Split crate input boxes resized to match

Room selection in room travel cleaned up.

Rules Pages:

Astromech pilot rules updates for clarity

Edit:

Some rules pages have been updated per rules update forum suggestions.

Crate merging the same custom image works properly now.

As promised a bit ago we have updated our Project Development listing and will do our best to keep it up to date from now on. 

You can find it here it is also available under the technical menu called Development Projects. It will get updated as more things finalize with the various projects. This will contain the major things we are working on, so check it out often.

Since the last update we have gotten more people to the Quests team and in the process of restructuring the team to make it more efficient. So hopefully before too long more quests will be rolled out and not just our events like Science Fued and Galaxy Fest. Some of the comments from Galaxy Fest are already filtering into the designs of these new things as they are in the planning phases. Some scripts for NPC types, creatures and the like might get scripts added to them first as well so check those often.

Also the recycling merge seems to have gone successfully so far and we might plan for more when we are able to do them. Some of you have also noticed that Mining factions can now produce the ship and vehicle that are used for recycling as well, this was an added benefit for the merge.

There are 3 new faction privileges added. Faction leaders will need to assign these new privileges to faction members as appropriate:

• Can Abort Production
• Can Abort Facility/Station Construction
• Can Revoke Assigned Datacards

This weekend sometime we will be converting all existing recycling factions to be mining factions. This will be done in several stages over the next couple days until this weekend.

• Stage 1 - Completed
  • Ugly Datacards will be granted to Mining Factions
  • Mining Factions will be granted the ability to produce said uglies.
  • Grant the specific datacards granted to all Recycling factions to grant them to Mining factions
  • Allow mining factions to recycle
• Stage 2 - Completed
  • Convert all existing recycling factions to mining factions
  • Disable the creation of new recycling factions
• Stage 3 - Pending
  • Update the rules pages to correctly show mining factions rather than recycling wherever they are located.

We wanted to give you all a few days heads up so you can plan accordingly and not be completely and totally shocked by this. This will be updated as the various stages and processes are done so everyone is kept in the loop. This has been a long ongoing effort to consolidate faction types, more such efforts might happen in the future when we are able to do it. At the end of stage 1 all existing mining factions should have the abilities of recycling factions, while stage 2 is cleanup efforts.

Edit: Stage 1 is completed.

Edit 2: The prospecting vehicles can now also be produced by mining factions as well. Also we have decided if you are part of a group that already have a mining faction and thus will dissolve your current recycling faction. Reach out to Baugrems to get a rembursement of the initial startup cost for the recycling faction.

Edit 3: Stage 2 Completed and moved rules to Stage 3

Taking care of some minor items on my todo list. 

• 3PO Droid Loses its Infantry Command Skill...who in their right mind would trust him heading out into battle.
• The Glaive weapon has been renamed to Chakram since well that is what the picture is, and a glaive is a polearm not a thrown weapon
• Updated Batch Size of some droids as well from 1 to 2. Mostly the Astromechs that weren't already 2, Protocol Droids and Labor Droids
• Updated Batch Size of Battle Droids from 2 to 4 

In other news now that Galaxy Fest is over, would like to thank everyone that participated and both galaxy fest itself and the survey we did afterwords. This information should help us improve future galaxy scale quests and events. Those interested in helping out with those events and quests  or the smaller scale quests, can apply to the Quest team by working up a script in LISP using a custom NPC or a Protocol Droid and showing us what you can do. Submit applications to Baugrems and if accepted you will get the chance to help work on that stuff and more.

On a final note, since it was asked a bit lately. I'll see about getting our development roadmap updated and posted or fixing our projects page eventually so we can show it there.This one is slgihtly outdated was made early this year but for the most part this is what we are marching towards.

Dual wielding weapons changes: You can now dual wield without using both primary and secondary slots. When equipping a dual wieldable weapon, a separate dual wield slot will allow you to equip a second weapon to the same slot. You can do this in both the primary and secondary slots. Additionally, installed cybernetics will show up in your item fitout.

This is the first major change completed by Vesh. Well done!

- Deep Space Asteroid Fields have randomized names now and act like permanently hidden systems. This is to allow the use of inventory filters on assets in asteroid fields. The rules pages for these asteroid fields only show if present within the system.

Edit: Perma

The NPC and Quest Team is open for more members. Ever since Galaxy Fest, I have been drowning in questions about the team, how to work in swc-lisp, and how someone can help. This team is in charge of things like Galaxy Fest, generic NPC/Droid/Creature scripts, and everything in between where it involves a conversation tree or quest.

How do I join?

Message Baugrems or Noctis expressing your interest. We will be expecting you to have written some custom NPC/Protocol Droid scripts to show. It does not need to be complex but it should show that you know how to use it.

What projects can I work on?

We have a huge list of available jobs and potential for new projects. NPCs, Droids, and Creatures are still missing a lot of generic scripts. Galaxy Fest style events need worked on/planned. Newbie Quests need help. Random quests (like Purrgil) need help. If you have a plan that doesn't fit, let us know and it might be possible.

What's in it for me?

Besides monthly CP pay ranging from 10,000 to 20,000 there are bonuses for work done and you get first look at upcoming quests. Plus you can help influence what comes next.

GO CLICK ALL THE THINGS!

Deathmatch

GRUDGE MATCHES!

Here is the Top 10 for the Galaxy Fest ticket counts. Top 5 got grand prizes. The top 3 chose moons in Bright Jewel. The next two took Starspeeder 3000s!

Tickets can still be redeemed for one more week on the surface of Ord Mantell in the Galaxy Fest city. The shield is down for landing.

Now that Galaxy Fest has ended, there will be a lot of people returning to life as normal and some poor penguin will be forced to clean up all the trash. But the planet is still open for swap meets, hang outs, and more. In the next couple months it will also have a regular carnival appear with lesser prizes.

A quest has appeared in the Bright Jewel System in orbit of the gas giant, Wynkahthu. The station, Tansarii Point, has a mining foreman who will be needing a lot of assistance. It sounds like he will always need at least a little help so there is no time limit to get there!

It seems Purrgils have been spotted on the planet below and are disrupting his operations. The pay will be good, but it won't be in credits. Bring along your hunting crews and discover the quest!

3/4ths done with Galaxy Fest! The big event ends on Day 270 at 23:59 combine time.

Prize claiming will be open for an extra week but the games will close. Ever NPC including blueprint vendor, critter vendor, bartenders, etc. Will all be gone at close. Shuttles to the grounds will close and the prize ticket handler will move to the station in orbit.

Getting a ride home: A team of valets will be available at the Jubilee Wheel. They will confirm your desired teleport is a prize entity, that it is yours, and that your destination is valid. You may stuff as much stuff into your prizes as you want before teleport. Including characters such as yourself. Kidnapping with this method will result in heavy punishment. Don't do it. You will have a choice to teleport the prize without you, or with you onboard. It will cost 10 tickets per ride so make sure you save for it if you have many needs. These Valets will work for 2 weeks following the close of Galaxy Fest.

Credits spent so far at Galaxy Fest is at 150 billion. A majority coming from the blueprint vendor.

Leaderboard update: The top 30 are all still in the running to easily take first by the end. These amounts and the names will be released at the end. Top prizes will be selected by winners in descending order. Don't give up with this last push!

A few random games might still pop up as well. Keep your eyes peeled for bawoons, lost children, and other surprises from current personalities.

As always, please use the help channel on our discord server to report issues you find. Private messages to staff can get lost easily, so tag us in the channel so we can confirm we're around to field them before resorting to it. Quest Team can also answer most questions.

Rumor has it that there may be more action in the Bright Jewel system sooner than most think. Think twice before running home right away.

EDIT:  There's a balloon on the loose.  Pop it!

Day 257 at 00:00:00 the galaxy fest will be open!

The Jubilee Wheel in orbit of Ord Mantell of the Bright Jewel system is your entry point. It is free to enter. Speak to the greeter in the entry room to gain access.

For the galaxy fest discord server, click here. It will contain more detailed info and announcements.

Edit: By popular demand, Kyle was gracious enough to reduce the game timers to 12 hours instead of 24.  Enjoy and good luck getting tickets.  

Also send him a DM telling him "Thank you for the bawoons."

Development has continued well with Galaxy Fest and we are ready for next month's big opening!

That said, there needs to be an update to how tickets are handled. A lot of backroom discussions with admins and quest team for exact details has been going for a while now. It seems like the trade, even throttled, rose a lot of concerns of the big prizes simply being about who can buy others out or bring the most people into their group. With that in mind, some modifications have been made.

Tickets can not longer be traded in any form. Groups/Factions cannot pool tickets together.

Large prizes such as the moons will be handled differently as well. Instead of being purchased with a large pile of tickets, they will be set aside for the highest total earned over the 2 week event. You can feel free to spend tickets and not worry about missing out on the grand prizes. At the end, the top earners will get their pick of prizes in order of highest to lowest until they are gone.

This is an effort to make the event as fair as possible for every individual. While we do enjoy group play for many events, this isn't the type for it to work fairly. The prize list will be adjusted slightly to reflect this soon. Exepect some changes to but for most of it to remain about the same.

How's it do, all!

As of our last sync, we've introduced a new team to Combine: Art Queue Team.

We've decided to add this team for 2 reasons: to improve how quickly art is approved and to allow the Art Team to focus more on art and the creation or modification of rules rather than the enforcement of art rules. The Art Team will still have the final say on any approvals or denials as the Art Queue Team only deals with enforcement of the rules, so if you believe an image that was acceptable has been denied, you'll still need to bring it up with the current Art Team Director. If you have questions on how to fix the image or why the image was denied, however, you may also now contact the current Art Queue Team Director (me)!

We have 10 Art Queue Team members that have been picked due to their track record with following the art rules. Worry not, however! We may expand the art queue team in the future!

At this time, we won't be announcing who is on the Art Queue Team, though they may choose to do so themselves if they want to.

Feel free to send me a DM if you have any questions about the Art Queue Team or how it functions.

Thanks for your time!

Galaxy Fest is starting soon around Day 257! This translates to around August 10th.

A recent GNS post revealed some rumors about the upcoming event. This Sim News should hopefully answer things clearly for everyone. Now that the date is fast approaching some more information is available.

How long? Where is it?

Planet Ord Mantell in the Bright Jewel Sector will be revealed this month. You will have over a month from its reveal to reach the fairgrounds. The festival itself will last 14 days. Afterwards, the planet will remain open as a theme park to visit, but will have worse prizes and less vendors.

Can I trade or pool tickets?

Yes. You will be able to work as a group to gather tickets, and a form of trade will be available (but fairly limited). Don't expect to buy everyone's tickets but people can feel free to make credits off of the event if they would rather do it that way. It will be worth your effort to use the tickets instead of selling them.

Can we land on the planet?

Nope! Transport to the planet will be done via Quest Shuttles that can be boarded from a station in orbit. Only individuals will be allowed to enter Galaxy Fest. The nearby moons are shielded and prepared for prizes, so you will be unable to land. A nearby Gas Giant will be the only place to land or hunt. The space station will not be dockable but it will be open for anyone to enter. After the opening event ends (14 days after opening), landing will be possible at the fairgrounds themselves.

What do we do at Galaxy Fest?

NPCs will be spread throughout the fairgrounds that offer a variety of games to play. These games will be based on skills, luck, and some wit. If you lack in one or all of those areas, you will still gain tickets from playing. You will be allowed to play each game once per day and they will be open for the entire festival. You will always gain at least one ticket per play, but a rare jackpot can really boost your tickets.

The rest of the festival grounds will be filled with vendors selling Physical Datacards (potentially rare), collectable items (like plushes and t-shirts), food and drinks, and more. Many things will be out there for you to discover beyond getting tickets or souveniers. 

What should I bring?

Nothing is required at all!

Optional Things to consider bringing:

• Hunting Squad (Can't enter, but other things in system might call for them)
• Medical Equipment (Same as above)
• Rare Stuff to show off (Or sell?)

I have more questions!

The Quest Team is happy to answer questions. A forum thread can be found here in general talk.

Coming to the Bright Jewel Sector on August 10th!

In honor of Star Wars day we are giving a special teaser announcement of an upcoming event.

GalaxyFest is going to be a large swap-meet-like-event that takes place at a fairly central location. Plenty of fair warning will be given before it actually begins. Expect in a few months to get a more detailed announcement.

Event will include arcade games and special prizes that you won't want to miss. Come alone or bring the entire faction. 

No Questions will be answered beyond what was posted here.
