Following the many questions that we received following the patch, we are publishing this additional information, as a Q&R.
Bugs
- What about the keyboard shortcut CTRL+<num>, for switching between action bars?
- This bug has been resolved.
- Buying some bricks from trainers displays a warning explaining that if we buy this apartment, it will destroy the previous one and its content. What should we do?
- This is a display bug. This confirmation window only appears after you have visited an Apartment Caretaker and disappears when you disconnect.
- The font has changed since the patch. How can we get the old one back or at least change it?
- We are working on this bug and we will keep you informed.
Town gameplay
- I activated an access terminal in the wrong town for my hall or my apartment, just after the patch, before I knew it would be final. Is it possible to restore it?
- We are currently thinking about a solution. Given that there was some uncertainty around access terminals, we are considering resetting all activations of access terminals. This reset would not impact the content of your halls or apartments, you would simply need to activate the access terminal that you want to use.
- Why did you change the hall/apartment access in the capitals? It would have been more logical to use the elevators rather than a Ring terminal. Why didn't you use a transfer procedure? Is it a final or temporary solution?
- For roleplay reasons, we needed to add halls and apartments in the towns, but it was not possible for us to have both the old (capitals only) and new (all towns) systems work in the same way. Therefore, we had to make a choice to prevent players that had already bought a hall or apartment from losing all the contents.
- We can only encourage you, in the long term, to buy new-style halls/apartments, which would ultimately make the Ring terminals useless, and would allow us to remove them from the game. But, we really wanted to leave you the choice and therefore created this auxiliary system, which, while not perfect, allows you to keep your old hall/apartment and their content.
- I am english-speaking, playing in the Desert. As the allocated town for my community is Pyr, the capital, I can't benefit from the reduced housing prices in the towns. Could you do something about this?
- We would need to find a way to target only the english-speaking players playing in the Desert, so that only them can benefit from the reduced prices in Pyr. We are currently thinking about this.
- I am english-speaking, playing in the Desert. My hall / apartment is already in Pyr, the allocated town for my community, and the new system forces me to access it via the Access terminal. Why do I have to buy a new hall / apartment to be able to use the elevators access, whereas it's already in the right town?
- Pyr is a specific case, as it's both the capital and the Desert town allocated to the english-speaking community. Buying a new hall / apartment in the same place indeed seems illogical. However, it is a technical requirement for switching from the old to the new system.
- Why this price difference between capitals and towns? Are the halls/apartments in the towns different in size or aspect from the ones in the capitals?
- The halls/apartments in the towns are the same as the ones in the capitals.
- The price in the capitals has not been raised whereas the NPCs will now sell up to Q290. Reducing the prices in the towns is a way to encourage players to settle there, which will ultimately facilitate the roleplay restart of the nations.
- "Why do I have to move to another town while my faction only gives me access to the capital of my country?"
- Moving is only a possibility, you can also elect to keep living in a capital.
Rybambel
- When will Rybambel be back?
- The Rybambel Company will be back at the same time as apartment items.
- Will we need to deliver the Rybambel packages to the Ring terminals?
- No, you will have to deliver them to the Apartment Caretaker in each town.
Anlor Winn
- If I choose an apartment pumpkin as a reward, and I don't have an apartment, will I lose it?
- No, you will get your reward when you buy an apartment.
We wish you a very pleasant stay on Atys,
