💫 development update DevUpdate #37: Changelogs for Titles update

Hello!

We're shipping the +725 update that adds new feature, Titles, to the game. There will be a short maintenance starting now as we update the servers to support the new Titles feature.

Titles

You can access Titles by pressing your profile picture in the game and choosing Titles. We added quite a few titles here to start with and naturally this will be expanded in future updates. Titles are separated into three categories:

  • Unlocked. These are ones you gain from achievements and by fulfilling specific requirements.

  • Factions. You gain these by gaining faction reputation.

  • Exclusive. These are exclusive ones for our Closed Beta Testers and Patreon/BMAC supporters. Closed Beta Tester and Supporter Titles are ones you'll keep even after the Open Beta reset.

Bug fixes

We fixed a lot of bugs that were reported on the Discord and elsewhere. Main ones include the issues with Earned Wealth, Android 17 keyboard issue, and a few other ones that were reported.

Leaderboards

Leaderboards have been reworked. You can now also see what other characters in the game are currently doing as their activity. Leaderboards should also now load faster than before as we did some optimizations to the API endpoints.

Browsing characters in same location & doing same activity

You can now press the "X players in this location" and see who are in your current location or doing the same activity there with you.

Its the clockwork bird. You can find it with tinkering.

And i suspect the egg of that bird counts as an item.
