itembuildr Updates

written by Evil Trout on April 16th, 2009 @ 04:51 PM

We've listened to your feedback on itembuildr and pushed out a few updates:

  • The item-generating code is a lot better. There should be fewer random repeats of the same item class. You should never get the same item class twice in a row. Secondly, there are fixes to prevent pricing from going way out of whack (like with the Dragon Ball items.). Thirdly, we can create special items for all classes now (like Hackers!). Unfortunately, I had to make adjustments to a few of the existing items to keep their prices in line with our economy.
  • There are two new E-Peen(tm) for itembuildr -- one is for having your idea chosen. The second is for having your image chosen.
  • A bunch of items built with itembuildr have been moved into the regular stores. Each item will display credits for its creation. They have subsequently been removed from the ItemBuildr consumer's co-op.

I'm hoping these fixes will go a long way to making itembuildr a lot more useful and fun for everyone. As always feedback is appreciated.

    Does that mean Two.fair.ladies.with.a.fine.champagne.glass.1915.dvda has been seeded into the forums?

    What happens to the masterballs? They’re not in any store.

    As a Special Item, they’ll probably show up in the Ppwne Shoppe from time to time.

    This sucks! Why was no notice given?

    As far as Master Balls go, don’t panic! I’ve got a very, very large stock of them available, and I’ll start listing them soon.
