We want Nin Online to be as safe a place for people of all ages and backgrounds. As such, this update goes one step further than our existing system of moderating player reported messages with large language models to instantly ban abusive players. All chats in Nin Online are now moderated in real-time.
Features
New & Enhanced AI Moderation System Nin Online has always employed state of the art systems to moderate player behavior. It now moderates all chats sent in-game with the latest AI technologies to determine if a player is sending material that is offensive. This can include harassment, usage of slurs and words that are offensive any groups of people and sexual language, and specifically towards minors. There is a 3-strike system where you will receive a verbal warning at first, but punishments will escalate.
War Crimes are now recorded Players who kill other players for no reason will now start having a War Crimes stat. This is invisible for now, but this will play into our Military Police system in the near future. War Criminals will be eligible to be imprisoned and Police Forces will be incentivized to imprison war criminals. There is more plans to revamp the entire prison system in the near future.
Changes
Item Pickup Range Increased You can now pickup items from the tile you are facing in addition to the tile you're standing on. This is to resolve confusion that new players experience because standing on the item to pick it up is not always intuitive.
Reduced Minimap Blur Players found the blur made it too hard to see the environment even if it was better to look at
Improved NPC Attack Animations Made them snappier and fixed an issue causing them to use the wrong order of animation frames sometimes
Bug Fixes
