Version 1.6.0 - 24 / 11 / 2019 - Storage Update, Random Quests
  • I made the mapper more intelligent! WHen it draws a spot, it will use Zone- and Room-Type colors if it already knows them. If not, it will use a default value and also Create a new Designer setting for that Zone / Room-Type (only if room type is a simple one). This means: While you create a new zone and look at it, you will find a new variable in the Phrases and Color section of the Designer tool for it that you can adjust.
  • Changed the way the mapper traverses an area: So far it used a stack. That means it explores a room, draws it and puts all connections going out from it onto the stack. It would then take the top element of the stack to draw next. This method has been drawing long paths (northly) first, before exploring the area around the starting point. Im now using a Queue instead. This means it will first discover the area next to the starting room before going into depth - Great plains still not looking perfect ;)

Version 1.5.5 - 06 / 11 / 2019 - Item Pricing
  • Item Prices:We handle food prices differently than all other types.

Updates 2010:

Shilla - Fall of the Warlock

Updates

Beta Announcement
June 19, 2010
Shilla will be opening for public beta on July 9th, in the evening, if all goes well. I'd like to open it sooner, but I'll be gone the week before that. So I'm scrambling to implement the last few things I want to get in, and the testers are doing a great job making sure the game will be ready for release.

  • In other news, some updates: WallScores are now updated automatically whenever your stats change. This removes some confusion about when it updated and why.
  • I've added a new game mode - Hardcore! When you create a new character, you can choose to make it Hardcore, which means that if you die, it's permanent! Hardcore characters are for the experienced veterans, and have their own dedicated Wall for high scores. Will you risk it all and take a shot at being #1 amongst the elites, or play it safe? Your choice!
  • New quest added.
  • New creature added.
  • New food added.
  • Game now records and displays how many heroes each creature has killed, so you can see who to watch out for!
  • Cleaned up grammar and added more detail to the starting quest to help new players.

Glub
June 17, 2010
Creature Kill Tracking was added, along with a new lake area. More food options were added for purchase from the store, and I've started work on some new quests.
A Brave New World
June 16, 2010
Break out your graph paper and pen!

As part of the content push for this week, the world map has been completed redesigned to be more user-friendly, more open and interesting, and bigger! The world map is now 560 rooms, and now features:
  • A revamped sewer area
  • A new town layout, with some new surprise locations
  • Redesigned outskirts area
  • A revamped castle
  • Revamped cemetery, vast valley, druid valley
  • New mountain area
  • New ogre caves area
More content to come, all this week!
That tingling at your fingertips
June 13, 2010
Is Magic! I've got the spell system working. You can now buy scrolls and train them. Hard part is done. Easy part is next - making the spells do stuff! It's basically just tying my existing cheats to buttons anyway.
  • Added Spell Training center.
  • Continue fixing bugs reported by testers.
  • The starting areas are going to be shuffled around a bit this next week, to make the linear progression clearer.
There's going to be a big content push this week. I don't foresee having to work a lot of overtime, so I'd like to get the rest of the areas in that we'll be keeping from the old shilla.
Apparently there's also a facebook group about shilla I didn't even know existed. You can find that group here:
Shilla on Facebook.
Castle
June 8, 2010
  • Added the Castle area. Quest data is still pending.
  • Fixed shop bug displaying the wrong message.
  • Added Log Out button to Menus.
  • Added another tester to our growing ranks!
Rebalancing
June 6, 2010
Lots of updates today:

  • Town Mayor's first quest is finished.
  • I changed the original Shilla armor algorithm to make armor worthwhile now.
  • Removed Kobold race and added Imp race.
  • Added spell shop in prep for spell work (not currently open).
  • Added guard at Beach Entrance that will give new players food to use when starting off.
  • Defense granted from armor is now displayed in the Status pane.
  • Pricing algorithm for shops was reworked, and item prices were rebalanced.
  • Added GameAction system that allows the player to perform engine non-specific game actions (like asking for food from guards, etc).
  • Fixed bugs:
    • Weapon damage calculation was slightly off.
    • Fatigue was not being properly subtracted if you killed a creature in one blow in one attack.
BUFF system up and running!
June 4, 2010
I've finally gotten around to finishing the buff system. This is the system that gives races all their abilities, and grants you stat bonuses when you equip jewelry and weapons and such. It's also required for the spell system.
A few other updates:

  • I've updated all shops so you can specify the number of items you want to buy or sell.
  • Added Kreen Kabobs
  • Added a Status page to the menu where you can view all your current temporary and permanent buffs.
  • Score page now also displays stat bonuses.
  • Currently, stat bonuses do not get applied to your wallscore. I'm not sure if I like it that way or not...
First Update! Welcome back, Shillians!
June 2, 2010
I've completed enough of the game to start admitting testers. The site needs some serious aesthetic work, but I'm focusing on getting everything functional before I start polishing anything.
As far as updates go...

  • I've restricted the ability to create new accounts to those that have the Alpha password.
  • Added support for Verbose or Brief attack displays.
  • Added a new error logging/handling system to detect and clean up errors and email administrators about any bad errors that could not be auto-corrected.
  • The above system also detects basic cheating attempts and reports them!
  • Added foundation support for a new game mode: Hardcore.
  • Cleaned up item drop code, and made it clearer to players which items were already in the room, and which items have just dropped from a kill.


Can anyone make up a good-looking banner for this version of Shilla? I need to replace the old Graphics that say "Shilla 2." I'd like to keep the symbol in the banner though... if you can help out, shoot me an email at admin@thedarktraveler.com!
