Topic: [99979] Update: Diplomacy and Trade Carts

[-99979] CM Arcanine [None] :: Nov. 28, 2013, 3:20 p.m.

Hi Community,

We have some new features and a few small changes for you in this update. Let's get on with it -

Diplomacy is marked on outposts

• On the world map, the diplomacy status is marked on all outposts now.
• You can see at a glance if the owner of the outpost is an ally, enemy, alliance member or anyone with a non-aggression pact.

Permanent bonus to trade cart capacity

• The bonus to increase the capacity of the trade carts through the merchant is no longer available to be temporarily hired, but can now be bought permanently.
• The bonus is still global for all carts in all kingdoms.
• The bonus will be available in the kings market, so you do not need to buy and find space for a new building.
• The trade carts capacity is increased in small steps for rubies, the first stages can easily be earned by players, by attacking Robber baron castles for example.
• Players that currently have the merchant character active that they purchased from the kings market will be refunded rubies depnding on the time remaining.

Exact time and date in battle reports

• In the detailed view of the battle reports, the exact time and the exact date of the battle is shown. This is also retained when the battle report is forwarded to alliance members.
• The date is stored in our server time and then converted into the time on your computer. Players in different time zones will therefore need to take this into account.

Other changes

• When writing a message to other players, the character limit is now displayed so that you can easily see how much space you have .

Of course there will also be some bug fixes included in the update.

As always you can share your thoughts with us about the update in the discussion thread. The time and date will be updated once we have confirmed it.

Regards,
Your Empire Team
