Wayfarer 1.0.5. Edgewater & Deadwood Update
🕑 Added 2021-05-28 05:52:14 +0000 UTCHi friends,
The alpha build has been updated.
What it Includes
- 33,000 words of cumulative new content
- Route B Edgewater and Deadwood investigations, plus the MC and Aeran putting all the clues together and deciding where the missing chalice is located
- Updated Wayfarer Order codex entry and a new codex entry on the Guild of Mages (more codex entries are forthcoming!)
- General bug and typo fixes
- Patched an issue with the Quick Character Creator where if the player chose to return to the beginning of the QCC, their stats were reset to 0, rather than 5
- Added an auto advance toggle for the chapter summary screens. If the toggle is on, the screen will fade out automatically to the next page. If it is off, the player can control when the page advances.
Accessing the New Content
Route B's content can be accessed by going to Rat Alley or by going to the Docks and refusing Zenaida's contract.
You can now choose to do any of the four investigation areas in any order. How many locations you can visit will depend on the number of action points you have. Deadwood can only be unlocked under specific circumstances.
At the end, the player character and Aeran will have an opportunity to put together all their information and decide where the chalice is. Whether they successfully choose the right location or not depends on what information they gathered and the player's own deductive reasoning.
Due to ongoing developments with the alpha build and changes to background variables, you may encounter continuity issues if you don't start a new file. This is going to be a regular thing for alpha build updates, so you may want to wait until Chapter 1's alpha build is stable/complete to play its content.
For this update, no major background variables have been added or changed. It is stable to play from the first Exploration screen (the first time you see the map).
Because the code for the interactive map is extremely complicated, the maps in Edgewater and Deadwood are not interactive and have links to click on instead. This will eventually be updated.
Where to Play
You can access the alpha build through the link above. PLEASE SEE THE CURRENT ALPHA BUILD PINNED POST FOR THE PASSWORD.
Bugs and Errors
This content is very fresh and hasn’t been thoroughly playtested. The regular bug report form is currently down, but if you notice any bugs and would like to report them, feel free to drop them in the bug report channel on the Discord server. (But please don't feel obligated to!)
Bugs won’t be updated very quickly as I have to compile files and create a new master file every time I update, but I hope to fix issues as I continue to build the chapter.
