v0.8.4 Patch Notes

What's new in v0.8.4

Quest Config

  • Default quests are now auto-generated on every server start - Default quests are written to quests/_defaults/default-quests.json each time the server loads. This file is always overwritten, so default quests stay up-to-date with new mod versions without any manual steps
  • User quest files fully replace defaults - Create your own .json files anywhere in the quests/ folder (or subdirectories). If any user files exist, the defaults in _defaults/ are ignored entirely. The generated default file remains as a reference you can copy and customize
  • Legacy example-quests.json automatically migrated - Servers upgrading from older versions will have their example-quests.json moved to quests/backups/ automatically. No quest data is lost
  • 5 new default quests - Combat Initiate (kill Trorks), Builder Basics (place planks), Crafter Apprentice (craft planks), Daily Hunt (repeatable mob bounty), and Boss Bounty (defeat Trork Chieftain with manual reward claim). Total default quests increased from 3 to 8

Balance

  • Reduced Max Health rewards across all skill trees by 50% - Health bonuses from skill tree rewards were too powerful, allowing high-level players to accumulate excessive health pools. All Max Health reward values have been halved across every skill (Gathering, Combat, Crafting, and Misc). Defense remains the highest health-granting skill (up to +28 at level 100, down from +55). Server owners with custom skill tree overrides are not affected

Quest UI

  • Quest requirements now shown in the UI - Locked quests now display a "Requires:" line below the description showing what's needed to unlock them: prerequisite quest names, total level gates, and skill level gates. The requirements text appears in green when all requirements are met, or gray when any are unmet. Fully localized in all 9 languages

Bug Fixes

  • Quest completion notification no longer references /quest command - The "quest ready to claim" notification now directs players to the Quests page instead of the removed /quest claim command
