Day of Dragons Patch Notes – August 18, 2021

SERVER ADMINISTRATOR QUALITY OF LIFE IMPROVEMENTS:

  • Added a Player Name Filter to the Admin Panel
  • Added Admin panel Disband Clan button allowing admins to disband the clan of selected player
  • Admins can now chat to each other with @admin <message> that non-admins cannot see
  • Players can now ping admins with @admin <message> allowing players a private way to communicate to admins
  • Added Restore admin panel button allowing admins to restore a player character to a player only if the character that died was a juvenile or older. Restorations are only available for 30 minutes after character dies.
  • Added new Ban player Admin panel button allowing admins to ban players from within the game. Admins can now ban in-game or from the config. In-game bans must be removed via /unban command or by deleting the steamid.sav in the /bans folder on the server. Config bans are separate and have not changed. Use config to ban when the server is offline and admin panel to ban when running.
  • Added new /unban <steamid> chat command which unbans players who were banned via admin panel
  • Added new PvP server config option bFlagHatchlingKillers=true that causes adult or older eyes to glow red for 20 minutes after killing a hatchling notifying other players that their hatchlings are not safe. Safelog is unavailable while Flagged when this config is enabled.
  • Added new server config option iMaxClanMembers=0 that allows servers to cap clan size. Only applies to clans made after this update. Server owners will need to either disband the clan in-game or wipe the SaveGames/Clans folder to force clans to re-make under new clan size limits. Clan members can be configured in the range of 8 – 1024 members.
  • Admin Port/Summon now ports/summons 5 meters above the player to prevent falling through the world
  • Admins now have infinite Stamina and Bile while in Super mode allowing them to do their duties without needing to rest
  • Added a system message notifying admins they have nametags on/off
  • Muting players now persists on the server indefinitely until unmuted
  • Player Chat command /anyadmins now only shows admins that are online and not incognito to prevent players from breaking rules when no admins are online (now they might be watching incognito)
  • Admin Panel now shows character info regardless if their character is rendered
  • Admin Panel now displays ping of players if ping is less than 1000.

PLAYER QUALITY OF LIFE IMPROVEMENTS:

  • Added new /verystuck command that teleports player to the nearest group member. Can only be used while stationary every 5 minutes and only after trying /stuck. Sets health to 1 and roots for 5s. Use only when necessary.-
  • Added /anyrevives chat command to let players know if they have a character that can be revived and how much time is remaining on the revive. Characters can only be revived by admins and must be a Juvenile or older upon death to be stored.
  • Added an “Apply Shimmer” button on Character panel allowing Kickstarter Backers with Shimmer Skins to apply the shimmer effect to nested-in Dragons with non-shimmer skins. After applying, player must go to Spawn Menu or safelog. Skin will be applied on next spawn in.
  • Added a struggle hint telling players how to struggle when picked up
  • Aiming reticle is now white when you can fire and red when you cannot to help our color blind community
  • Hatchlings on PvE servers can now only be picked up by group members to prevent griefing
  • Character Panel can now be mapped to Controllers
  • Developer nametags are now always visible to players (no more biting someone and then finding out they’re a dev) :steamhappy:
  • Tooltips now look cool
  • Servers with Friendly Fire (group damage) enabled now display Friendly Fire On/Off in the group social panel
  • Chat command for making clan announcement is now “@clan <announcement>” (used to be “/@ <announcement>”)
