Greetings,
the latest patch 0.10.3 for Darfall is ready and released. The main highlights are:
Introductory Pages
To introduce new players into the game, or even brief the more seasoned ones, we have added some overview pages first time you enter survival continent map, and then survival game itself that explain what awaits you in game and what are the main objectives.
Storage Controls - Tutorial
Did you know you can actually set your resources, like charcoal or planks auto produce? If not, the new tutorial step will explain how to do it. No need to manually click X times when you are out of charcoal in a chaotic night invasions!
Scenario Editor Tooltips
Scenario Editor has now received its tooltips. They are quite detailed, allowing you to create maps more smoothly, even for new players.
Keybindings Rework
As in any true RTS, powerful keybind system is critical for complete control over your armies and quick actions. Now you can bind combinations like CTRL-Q which was not possible before. The system also detects conflicts, informing you and offering you options what to do.
Updated MacOS Build
The MacOS build has been left on the older version of the demo, until now!. As we have now ditched FMOD, which was causing quite a lot of issues, the MAC builds should be standard for every update.
Crafting Tooltips
Every was lost in searching from where can I craft the item I require? This handy tooltip will tell you exactly the building you need that produces mentioned resource
