Ahoy Pathfinders! Today's the day! ATLAS v412.5 is here! NOTE TO XBOX USERS: Currently, there is an issue on XBOX where Sea Forts are unable to be claimed. We have a fix coming out for this tomorrow. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding! Private Servers Private Server owners will need to update the ServerGrid.ServerOnly.json file by adding a new entry to the database connections called new TradeDB: { "Name": "TradeDB", "URL": "xxx.x.x.x", "Port": xxxx, "Password": "xxxx" } Replacing the correct url, port, and password for your redis server in the above. It is also necessary to update to the latest ServerGridEditor here and re-export. You will also be able to add Sea Forts to the map if you wish to. Released patch notes v412.5 New Feature: Sea Forts Sea Forts are a form of Control Points that give Companies control over trading in an area. This system is foundational for the upcoming Trade System. Sea Forts have automated defenses that will respawn over time when neutral Players have a limited number of build points (100) to spend on a Sea Fort they own Currently only Defense Towers may be built (15 pts each) On PVP Servers, they may be captured and controlled! To capture them, destroy the defenses and plant a flag inside the central tower The flag takes 25 minutes to force an owned Fort return to neutral The flag takes 10 minutes to capture on a neutral Fort Sea Forts in Freeport Servers may not be captured In an upcoming patch, Sea Forts will allow access through a server for Trading You will be able to grant or restrict access to Allies or other Companies Access to a Sea Fort is required for you to have trade routes that travel through a server! Sea Forts may have a Tax Bank built on them The Tax Bank can be raided for gold. Neutral points have the Tax Bank as well NOTE: Until trading starts, they aren't actually earning any gold, so the Bank is empty Tax Banks will allow companies to tax Trade Routes that use their Fort for access Neutral Forts will have a high tax rate and allow everyone access to a server Map Added the Ship Salesman's Island to the center of each Freeport Grid NOTE: Ships are not yet available for purchase. They will be added in a future update Added Sea Fort Islands to the map. 1-4 exist on every server except the center Ships Increased maximum Ship level from 52 to 60 Adjusted Ship XP curve to increase the amount of XP required for early levels and greatly reduce the amount of XP required for later levels Overall, this change reduces the total amount of XP required to reach max level Added Gold cost for crafting Ships in a Shipyard Schooner: 50 Gold Brigantine: 250 Gold Galleon: 500 Gold NOTE: These costs will increase when the trade system has been fully implemented Structures Defense Towers may be built at the Smithy May only be placed at Sea Forts Requires Advanced Automation Skill from the Construction Tree Added Fuel Slot to Farmhouse and Warehouse Dedicated slot holds up to 1,000 units of Fuel This slot is separate from the main inventory Burns a unit of fuel at the following intervals: Oil: 350 seconds Coal: 200 seconds Wood: 100 seconds Thatch: 40 seconds Weapons Changed delay before using newly placed land artillery to 10 minutes This affects Cannons, Large Cannons, Catapults, Puckles, Ballistas, Mortars, and Swivel Guns Bug Fix: Cannons can no longer be fired underwater Misc Removed XP reward from all bosses including the Abominable Snowman, Kraken, Hydra, Drake, Ghost Ship, and Blackwood's Queen Cobra Removed Gold drops from Kraken, Squids, Army of the Damned Soldiers, fishing, and digging.
