Rice paste and rice paper is now implemented in game.

[EchoMan]

Cantr now has a new front page. Log out of the game to see it. (A Ctrl+R might be needed to reload it).

Also, image uploads are enabled again.

[EchoMan]

There are now a number of kites available in the build menu. You can find them under the new category "Roleplay items" where some old RP items also are found from now on. Kites can be flown and generate an event when flown.

They will have wiki articles soon.

[Greek]

Today we fixed some minor issues, especially appearance. If something doesn't work, try ctrl+r first

[Doug R.]

One of the minor issues is that you now don't have to get off your projects to drive down roads. Thanks Greek!

[EchoMan]

We now have the option to add a description to the inside of a room, on the location page.

If your character has the key to the room, the change will be instant. If not, a project to change the description will be started.

Thanks to GreeK for lining up the 1's and 0's in correct order for this to happen.

The mortar and pestle is now a portable machine with the same mechanics as of the bucket (you need to put in the ground to start projects). We have added 3 additional options to build them: wood, marble and jade.

With mortar and pestle you can make now explosive powder, a new raw that will have a fun use very soon.

[EchoMan]

What better way to end the 10-year festivities, than to go out with a boom?

Cantr characters can now make sparklers in game. Check out the following new wiki articles for more information:

Amazake has been renamed to Moromi (main mash). Wiki changes are pending.

[EchoMan]

We have made some changes to how projects are processed to make it faster and more efficient.

This had the unfortunate side effect that repeating gathering projects are broken. If your character is not working on anything all of a sudden without lighting up(on the player page) go to the character page. If your character is working on a nameless project at 0.0% just cancel it by clicking the X after the project.

Your character will have received the resources for the last repeat.

Please do not start any new repeating gathering projects until we have found a fix for this.

Thanks for your patience.

GreeK has been appointed chairman of the Resource Department. Thanks to Piscator for all the work he has done over the years, and a big welcome to GreeK.

[EchoMan]

We are putting some database changes live today, related to animal domestication. Nothing in the code has changed yet, and there is no visible change for your characters yet. Please report if you notice anything strange with animals.

[EchoMan]

We have now released the first step of Animal Domestication. There is now a new tab under animals where the domestication options are visible. Note that no animals are made to be tameable yet though.

[Greek]

Today we had many important improvements of the game engine. Please report if you have any problems.
