Version 1.3.4 and launcher 1.0.25 are out. Start the launcher and it updates itself. Here is what changed since 1.3.3.
The game tells you about new versions
When a new version is released, the game itself now lets you know. It checks when it starts and then once an hour.
- On the mode list you are asked once: "A new version, vX, is out". Choose "Yes" and the game quits and opens the launcher, ready to update. Without the launcher, the download page opens instead.
- If you answer "No", the title screen still shows that a newer version is available.
- Nothing appears during a match, and nothing is shown when the game cannot reach the server, so play is never affected.
Launcher 1.0.25 goes with it: when the game exits, the launcher checks for the latest build again, so it is ready to update the moment the game hands over.
Unnamed seats use their piece's name
A seat whose name box was empty used to be called "You", which ended up in sentences like "You wins!". It is now called by its piece's name. Seats using a basic shape (circle etc.) are called by seat number, such as "P1".
- A name you typed yourself (even "You") stays as it is.
- Online, creating or joining a room without a name uses your piece's name too.
CPU
- New personality, "Unpredictable": pieces can now be given this CPU personality. Each turn it plays as one of the six personalities, which makes it hard to read (replaying the same match makes the same choices).
- "Saboteur" reworked: to push a district's price down it now buys enough shares (50-99) to reach its goal. It also kept selling to sabotage after reaching its own target amount; it now stops and switches to selling its stocks for the goal.
Fixes
- A "Buy it out for 5x?" offer from an earlier square could stay around and let you buy out your own shop on a later square. The offer now belongs only to the landing that made it.
Test build 1.3.4-test0
The test build has the same changes. In Test Mode's Sphere Battle it also adds the new "Holiday lock" rule, reworks the Modern mage's spheres and the warrior's Lv5, gives summoned King Slimes and Mandragoras a minimum stay, and fixes how the Fat Chocobo raises stock prices.
Please note
The engine version went up, so you cannot play online with 1.3.3 or earlier (v1.3.4 and test build 1.3.4-test0 can play together). Saves load as before.
