Lo-Fi Games

This is from Facebook.

There's a new update for those who haven't noticed yet. 0.29 adds encumbrance to the game, so if you notice all your characters can only walk slowly now, then you need to lighten their inventories.

I think in the next update I will raise the lower limit for carry weight, I don't want the player to spend all their time crawling slowly along and getting bored.



Here are the changes:

0.29.0

Encumbrance has an effect now. Your inventory and gear will weigh you down, making you move slower. How much you can carry depends on your strength.
Strength is also increased by walking about with a heavy inventory. The heavier it is, the faster the increase.
Your encumbrance is shown in the inventory window.
The stats panel in the corner shows you if you are gaining strength or athletics XP based on your encumbrance.
Better look closely at your inventory now to see what you can still carry. If you are one of those sneaky people with a shopkeepers backpack, you might want to get rid of it now.
Athletics skill is now functional. Running at full speed without any encumbrance will improve it faster.

FIXES

Inventory item icons now have transparency
Fixed the bug where 100's of caravan traders could swarm around an area. If you have this you will need to import to a new game to get rid of them. Or kill them all.
Fixed another dialog system bug where you could hire Wingwang for free.
Fixed bug where you couldn't lock your doors
Fixed the bug where you sometimes couldn't loot bodies

Sorry this question is off topic but... are you the same Cubia from minecraftforum.net?

Curses! I'll lose my fort when I import to get rid of all those traders.

... Or you could just kill them. I would love to kill 400 traders. Ah the blood, the pain, the horror... It would really make my day.

My update is having problems. Anyone else encountered an error updating?






( I realise I could post in the bug formum but maybe someone can help me here?)

I was, but it is working now. I hope your problem resolved as well.

I never had any problems. Good timing??

Still having issues. it is stopping the download exactly at 55.7mb out of about 500mb total. Done this every time. I forgot to screenshot the error message that it gives me, but somehting about possibly have the wrong filesize information....maybe? My memory is kinda fuzzy at this time in the morning.

It seems the server is having problems, i get an error each time i start the game about not being able to contact the update server.

Try to turn off completly your anti-virus and then download it. I already had that kind of error with another game. My anti-virus was blocking the download so I could never completly download it.

Also, whats the name of your anti-virus?

Wow, what a difference. Thanks. It has finished downloading and is installing now.

all 7 of my men had 400+ weight. heh.

I dumped the traders backpack and my guys still can't carry all his equipment. The armour and his one katana are too heavy for him. Bummer. Still, giving one guy as much as he can hold and then getting my other guy to pick him up is an excellent training tool. I just wish ~40 strength was enough to carry all my armour.

Next up we NEED that clickable map because this is just getting horrible in terms of overland travel (to the nearest town even). I am fine waiting for my guys to walk there, I'd just prefer if I didn't have to give them orders every 30 seconds to keep walking in the same direction.

Something that would be nice too is a button that makes them all go at the same speed, and at the maximum speed they can go with the stuff they carry, so they stay grouped.

I know there is the "follow" option, but when I want to give an order, I select the whole group.

Probably, it's an alias I've had for years - since I was 11 - 4 years ago
I'll check

Alright, I checked, it's a diffferent guy, the name is the same origonal source, .hack, but I've searched google and stuff periodicly for others using that name and never found anything - the full alias is Cubia Kilestone

BTW, you can retain all of you r bags and items and stuff by putting bags inside bags - this cuts the weight by about 10x - my guy who previously had 400 has all the same stuff at i think about 40 now
