Update: v0.91b

A hearty BARK! from the Dog!

This update adds Structure Voting, a new way to elect a Structure for the next Pledge project.

Structures have also undergone some changes in general. Many structures now directly modify a relevant Dog / Realm modifier (Armor, Purity… Pledge stacks) after a certain number of works by players. Some structures now recharge items.

Other changes:

  • Golden Dog update
  • Bone point requirements rebalanced
  • Jail Health decay
  • Auto-forgiveness after a set period of time
  • Items above Tier 2 don’t break when running out of charges

Golden Dog

This feature is getting a tweak in behavior for the first time in a while. The hope is that this makes the benefits of Prestige / Levelling more unified, while also making the Friendship benefit of Golden Dog a little more relevant.

  • Golden Dog now grants Unlimited Pets for 60 seconds. 
  • Each Golden Pet awards a certain number of Points and adds Friendship.
  • Pet speed is increased by 1 per second during Golden Dog.


Bones

Bones have had their point requirements rebalanced so that total points required to earn all bones are better distributed among lower level bones.

For context: Incredible Bone V now requires 10 M points (Previously 2.85 M). However, the number of points required for Enlightened V is lower, at 163.5 M points required (previously 178.8 M).


Structure Voting

If a structure can be built, a vote begins periodically to determine the next structure to be built. You can enter the vote by using vote a / b / c / d. The corresponding structure’s icon will be present on screen, and the name of the structure will be output in chat.

The selection of Structures is currently random.

Voting also means that multiple structures of the same type can now be built.

    • Many items have had their descriptions updated to indicate where they can be repaired.
