Ahoy Pathfinders!
Today's the day! ATLAS v412.5 is here! NOTE TO XBOX USERS: Currently, there is an issue on XBOX where Sea Forts are unable to be claimed. We have a fix coming out for this tomorrow. We apologize for the inconvenience and thank you for your understanding!
Private Servers
Private Server owners will need to update the ServerGrid.ServerOnly.json file by adding a new entry to the database connections called new TradeDB:
{
"Name": "TradeDB",
"URL": "xxx.x.x.x",
"Port": xxxx,
"Password": "xxxx"
}
Replacing the correct url, port, and password for your redis server in the above.
It is also necessary to update to the latest ServerGridEditor here and re-export. You will also be able to add Sea Forts to the map if you wish to.
Released patch notes
v412.5
New Feature: Sea Forts
Sea Forts are a form of Control Points that give Companies control over trading in an area. This system is foundational for the upcoming Trade System.
Sea Forts have automated defenses that will respawn over time when neutral
Players have a limited number of build points (100) to spend on a Sea Fort they own
Currently only Defense Towers may be built (15 pts each)
On PVP Servers, they may be captured and controlled!
To capture them, destroy the defenses and plant a flag inside the central tower
The flag takes 25 minutes to force an owned Fort return to neutral
The flag takes 10 minutes to capture on a neutral Fort
Sea Forts in Freeport Servers may not be captured
In an upcoming patch, Sea Forts will allow access through a server for Trading
You will be able to grant or restrict access to Allies or other Companies
Access to a Sea Fort is required for you to have trade routes that travel through a server!
Sea Forts may have a Tax Bank built on them
The Tax Bank can be raided for gold. Neutral points have the Tax Bank as well
NOTE: Until trading starts, they aren't actually earning any gold, so the Bank is empty
Tax Banks will allow companies to tax Trade Routes that use their Fort for access
Neutral Forts will have a high tax rate and allow everyone access to a server
Map
Added the Ship Salesman's Island to the center of each Freeport Grid
NOTE: Ships are not yet available for purchase. They will be added in a future update
Added Sea Fort Islands to the map. 1-4 exist on every server except the center
Ships
Increased maximum Ship level from 52 to 60
Adjusted Ship XP curve to increase the amount of XP required for early levels and greatly reduce the amount of XP required for later levels
Overall, this change reduces the total amount of XP required to reach max level
Added Gold cost for crafting Ships in a Shipyard
Schooner: 50 Gold
Brigantine: 250 Gold
Galleon: 500 Gold
NOTE: These costs will increase when the trade system has been fully implemented
Structures
Defense Towers may be built at the Smithy
May only be placed at Sea Forts
Requires Advanced Automation Skill from the Construction Tree
Added Fuel Slot to Farmhouse and Warehouse
Dedicated slot holds up to 1,000 units of Fuel
This slot is separate from the main inventory
Burns a unit of fuel at the following intervals:
Oil: 350 seconds
Coal: 200 seconds
Wood: 100 seconds
Thatch: 40 seconds
Weapons
Changed delay before using newly placed land artillery to 10 minutes
This affects Cannons, Large Cannons, Catapults, Puckles, Ballistas, Mortars, and Swivel Guns
Bug Fix: Cannons can no longer be fired underwater
Misc
Removed XP reward from all bosses including the Abominable Snowman, Kraken, Hydra, Drake, Ghost Ship, and Blackwood's Queen Cobra
Removed Gold drops from Kraken, Squids, Army of the Damned Soldiers, fishing, and digging. The trade system will become the way to earn gold
Bug Fix: Driving a Cargo Cart over a Pillar will no longer cause the rider to dismount
Bug Fix: If a Ceiling Tile is placed on top of a Pillar and then destroyed, any object built on the Ceiling Tile will also be destroyed
Known Issues
No Sea Forts in D8
Golden Age Sea Forts currently cannot be claimed
Map may flicker when zoomed
Sea Forts currently have Peace Time which may be removed at a later date
Players may spawn on Sea Forts sometimes
