Thread: [876] Nocturne RS3 - The Most Advanced High Revision Server! Launch: Feb 24, 2017

Hey everyone, I know I am posting this early but this is all I could do for today because I will not have access to a computer for the rest of the day. I thought I would be returning home today but since I live far away from my significant other she wanted me to spend one more night. So while she was at work I got a few more updates done and I know construction had a lot of problems so I wanted to spend time working on that. Hopefully you enjoy, I should be back tomorrow afternoon if all goes planned. Regardless there will still be updates coming in Enjoy!

- Houses now save rooms, objects, etc. properly.
- More efficient system of loading houses quickly.
- Added a new guest system, users may now enter each other's houses.
- Safety checks have been added to differentiate between building and regular mode in houses.
- PvP modes can now be enabled in houses for fighting.
- You can no longer equip broken items.

I sat down today with some of the longterm players and realized a recurring problem we had. While the server was meant to be a more challenging type of server, some aspects were just unrealistically hard. We have gone months dry without any 'rare' drops from a bunch of bosses, and a ton of the necessary drops were just way to impossible. I decided I would go through every boss and monster with worthy drops and adjust the rates so that they are achievable to get an economy flowing. Hope this goes well :^)

5/13/2016
- The ingame suggestions system has been revamped up and now saves results.
- Updated the voting pages to the site's theme.

- Spawned elder wisps at the elder divination location.
- Spawned in uglur nar.
- You can now open the gates at gu'tanoth and camelot castle.

I figured that I should work on some comp cape stuff so people can finally achieve it, so these are the things people wanted. I had to kind of completely rewrite castle wars to make it work since so much changed, so hope everyone enjoys it! Also replaced the old kalphite queen boss with the new and improved exiled kalphite queen, good luck!

Farmscape was a joke. I've been doing so many fixes recently I thought I would throw this in. Don't worry dungeoneering should be around very soon. I've been having a rough few days recently because of hard news I've come across so I had to take a break of bug fixes since I haven't been feeling too great. Content I enjoy, so I spent the day on that instead.

As many of you may know, I was working on this a couple months ago for a long period of time. I came across some stumps for a while that have led me to put off this update. Well, a few days ago I finally figured out how to get the important issues to work and have been working on this a lot when I need a break from dungeoneering (which will be finished very soon). The reason I am pushing this update now is because we need an alpha period. While the bots are functioning very well, they are of course not perfect. There are bugs that will only occur if tested on a large scale, hence why there are features missing (such as the rewards shop, explained in a note at the bottom) because we need to see how many tokens are gained on a large scale over the course of a few days in order to determine prices and rewards. Please suggest ideas and report bugs for us so that we can fix it for the upcoming beta stage. Hope you guys enjoy this, it has been a huge request for a long time!
