  • New Confirmation Prompt / Alert Box system with new UI system.
    For adding confirmation windows where players can confirm their decisions eg. /abandonhouse now will warn player the first about the repercussions of their actions.

  • Rebalanced Jakuma
    90 Base Damage -> 55 Base Damage
  • Rebalanced Yamazaru
    90 Base Damage -> 55 Base Damage
    120 Str Requirement -> 140 Str Requirement
  • Adamantine Sword
    90 Base Damage -> 60 Base Damage

    These were never intended to be balanced that way. It seems there might've been saving or human error at some point. But clearly these three swords were not supposed to have the same damage, being of different rarity, different attack speeds, different levels.

  • Bandits Corporation
    Temporary alliance corporation for Missing Ninja. Can have up to 300 members. Mainly for PvP purposes. This will need to be balanced in time, and will eventually be worked out in favor of the a new player Organization system.

  • Fixed bug that's been happening occasionally where players get stuck running "Events". Most often noticed/manifested as players getting stuck in Death Map/Screen with the Sage.
  • Leader roles cannot promote players in their corps past their own role/rank in the corp. eg. Sub-leader role will not be able to set someone to leader
  • Fixed a IP related login issue, may have caused a crash on server select.

  • Mailbox System
    This isn't activated for player use yet, but we've added a new mailbox feature where we can send items to players when their inventory is full, for events etc. An example of usage for this will be that when players house rent ends, we'll collect their furniture and mail it to them. Other uses would be for debugging players or distributing items for events (eg. Free stat reset day~)

    This will come a bit later, but we also intend to let players send items to each other for a Ryo (in-game currency) fee/tax.
     
  • Knockback System Rework
    Can no longer control knockback directions by changing own direction for projectiles
    Slight knockback animations so players can track targets better visually.
    Also optimized and cleaned up the code a lot.

    GIF 9-3-2021 11-13-07 PM.gif

    I understand that this will rustle some feathers. Although it's a bug fix, players have built a meta game around this bug and fixing it was a decision that I had to take serious consideration about. It was a bug that introduced some level of complexity to combat, but it was also very hard to balance around. We'll have to make some balance changes in the coming days, and we're open to feedback.
     
  • Added warning when dropping an item in an instanced map
    Players were thinking they could transfer items in instanced maps.
     
  • Added new feature to our universal control prompts (Esc to cancel).
  • Added text wrapping to new UI system, used for improving text rendering on confirmation prompts for now.
  • (Admin only) Dummy logged in players now can be attacked
  • (Admin only) Added command for us to broadcast messages to specific villages

  • Fixed players being unable to Right click -> Report concealed ninja.
  • Fixed world maps in village displaying general world map rather than village specific maps.
  • Fixed players getting stuck when using a buff (eg. Substitution Technique) right after changing maps.
  • Fixed 2 misc. obscure client crashes due to null values.

  • Added Clamshell Robe for Mist (& Mist Missing) Ninja, now selling in Mist Village Clothing shop. Art by @Fuze thank you!

Game file size optimizations
Switched to using .ogg SFX files & compressed music, reducing game size by over 50% (600mb -> 290mb)

Players now spawn at entrance of house when they logout in a house
This also applies to any instances in general, if a player enters an instance, their last location is saved and if the instance no longer exists, they will return there.

Added functionality for ninja to only be able to buy house from their own villages
We have to set this up manually on the server next. Players who already own houses in enemy villages will no longer be able to pay rent for that house and will lose the ownership in time.

/ignore is no longer case-sensitive
A long running problem was when players used /ignore to block someone, it saved it on the server with the case/capital letters used in the command eg. /ignore DoGe would save as DoGe and so trying to unblock doge/doGe/Doge would not work.

Added confirmation prompt when double-clicking to buy an item
Players have long complained that they accidentally buy things while just browsing the shop. This will prevent accidental purchases.

Queued Player & NPC Movement Animations (Reverted)
To make visuals smoother even when there is lag
Also fixed an issue causing NPCs to skip forward a tile visually when it lagged.


Fixed setting players as co-owners/banned/regular guests
Would update for everyone on the house guest list instead of the selected guest. This was actually just a visual bug, but was confusing.

Others
Optimized cursors (Better FPS for all)
Fixes to Mailbox System (yet to roll out)
Fixed knockbacks not moving the character visually when it was performed by a character moving diagonally.

Functional TVs
Currently testing it on live server, but should be available for players soon. You'll be able to showcase any YouTube video through a TV by copying the URL of the YouTube video in your Clipboard and then interacting with a TV.
Before the barrage of people complaining about how there's so many issues with this and that and we're here working on TVs, let me explain. Kenock suggested it as a funny idea one day, I brought it up to Wolf mostly jokingly but said we had more important things to work on at the moment. So Wolf spent his off days working on it. There was no equivalent exchange between getting this or some bug fix because Wolf just really wanted to experiment and add this in his spare time. Also, this was one of the most complex features to add because it's unprecedented in any game using the technology we're using, so it's actually pretty crazy that he made it work.

Added (Ctrl+v) Pasting Clipboard in Chatbox

Fixed two separate potential rollback issues
Creates mailbox (on database) for player when they login if they don't have one (to receive global mail)
Fixed IP grabbing client side script causing MacOS build to be broken
Fixed a memory leak when logging in through browser
Fixed support for Latin characters
(Admin Only) Fixed our Jutsu Editor Copy+Paste
(Admin Only) Allow us to /fakelogin people multiple times

New animated login screen background

Pardon/Exile Cooldown
Players can now only be pardoned after 7 days of being exiled.
They can still be exiled immediately after being pardoned.

(Admin only) Windows notifications are now sent to Admin/GM when a player is reported
This will help let GMs keep Nin Online running in the background and wait for reports

(Admin Only) /expirehouse command for Admins to make a house immediately expire.
For testing, and forced evictions.

Added notification when you received mail (while you're online)
 

PatchnoteBugsHeader.png.f6b596b16902ee93233687d2aa03a53f.png.2a91bfcc0dd4febe964ccd46ebe36474.png_07-9e1f1e530e052d24d49cf3.png.25dc50706c4f24bbad6b139dcdaf3791.png.aff9b1c612830b0f7221520f925acc17.png

Improved server performance
We noticed a flaw in server performance that potentially made server loops (where things are processed and calculated) get skipped in the event of lag. This could potentially cause issues like projectiles being farther behind than they should be and item effects to not be processed. We're not sure if this will solve those particular issues, but it potentially caused them.

Also did some general optimizations that shaved off around 5-10ms off some of the server processes by cleaning up "for loops" that looped over empty maps/players etc.

Fixed players getting knocked back into walls
This was happening with jutsu with more than 1 tile knockback.

Fixed furniture not returning to players through mail when they didn't have a mailbox at the time the landlords tried to send the furniture back
Also, fixed global mail, allowing us to send mail to all players

Misc. Changes
Improved positioning of Nin Online logo on login screen
Fixed background on login screen being black on odd resolutions
Fixed background on login showing hitspark logo instead of background when returning to main menu sometimes
Fixed client crashing with mailbox items
Potential fix to players getting stuck on login (connected with instanced maps/houses)

There's a bunch of new cash shop item released. First off, Hashi Set.

An outfit with Demon Slayer inspiration, the design is based on classic male Japanese school uniforms.
Wear it just as a school uniform, or throw an overcoat over it to make get that definitive Hashira look.

This is the first cash shop item that I've done the art for since Face Bandages in 2019. All my time since then has been dedicated to working on programming and adding free in-game content, so please give me your support!

GIF_10-6-2021_3-02-38_AM.gif

The second cash shop items released are the first Furniture Cash Item (Scroll Pillars). We're open to feedback about pricing on these. This current pricing was decided based on feedback from players. We understand that a lot of players want to have more reason to own a house, as right now it is purely a novelty. We know this, and we intend to add plenty of functionality with houses in the future, including using it as a Spawn Point and having Stashes/Storages. We'll talk about this more when the time comes!

Players now get pardon cooldown even if they leave the village voluntarily through prisons.

Fixed login screen visual bug
It would display the Hitspark logo as the login screen background if you resized the game window while in-game and then returned to menu.

Admins now get Windows notifications when players report them (was introduced earlier, but didn't work at all)

Fixed typo "recieved mail"

Added Error Furniture Image
Incase player has missing graphics for furniture, it will continue to load the rest, rendering the missing graphic one as a placeholder.
