This is a continuation of 3.1 with further terrain adjustments and the removal of the old Quest Log system. This process is still in progress and expected to take several more updates to complete. This update also fixes the Soul equipment type crash by removing it from the game. This equipment was meant to house elemental resistances, but I came up with a different and better way of handling it, so the Soul item is no longer needed. At this point, there were no equip-able Soul type items in the game, so only the equipment name was removed. Elemental resistance auras can be expected when the story continues which is after this wave of updates to what is currently in game.
On another note... I'm always looking for people to make any kind of content for CoA or try to "break" it so I can see what kinds of bugs still lurk. I'm a one man team of developer, so finding everything takes a great deal of time on my own. If you see something broken, please report it ASAP either here on Steam in the discussions, or preferably on facebook @ www.facebook.com/CrossOfAuria either by posting on the CoA wall or via DM.
If you're a content creator, go ahead and drop your links to CoA videos on my fb DM!
3.1.0.1 [Build #54, Release Date: February 29, 2020]
Warning: Please save on the world map before updating to this build. Terrain changes are taking place across Revan. If you download this update and end up stuck, please rollback to 3.0.3.3 using the following steps:
Rollback Steps:
(1) – Right click Cross of Auria from the Steam menu.
(2) – Click “Properties”
(3) – Go to the “Betas” tab.
(4) – From the drop down menu, select 3.0.3.3.
(5) – Save on the world map.
(6) – Repeat the above steps, but select “Default” instead to redownload the most current version of the game.
New:
- A new quest tracking system has been implemented with the intent on making it easier for returning players to pick up where they left off. Once Ruby learns about a quest objective, an item appears in the Key Items section. This item gives a brief description or quote relative to the quest and will disappear once the quest is complete. [Previously, only the Quest Missive for Scarlet Treasure was in game –this will be the universal standard throughout CoA once it is completed.]
--- The new quest missive system is not yet complete and can only be accessed at the beginning of a questline. Players who have begun a quest but have not picked up the item will not be able to obtain the item at all. This will not hinder progress in continuing the quest, so feel free to continue as usual!
Fixes:
- Fixed a crash relating to the Soul equipment type by removing it from the game, as it was not yet functional.
- Fixed a continuity error with the Stable Toxic Core by preventing the player from leaving the Heart area if they have not created the item.
- Fixed a dialogue issue when trying to leave the Auria area before the party is ready.
- Dialogue fix to the outpost NPC in Auria.
Changes:
- Old Junk for Professor Dixon will be dropped upon exiting the area toward the treasure room.
- Adjusted the attack animation of Sparkstrike and Lightningstrike.
- Terrain changes to all Veil zones not changed in 3.1.
