Hello Erika, many thanks for the chest code as always and for hosting the Q&A.

A friend of mine who plays the game but isn't too used to post on Reddit came up with a suggestion and so I'm posting it for him:

He remembers that it was once explained that multi-opening of chests is limited to 100 at a time because opening 1000 or even higher quantities with just one click would be pretty heavy in terms of game engine. So he came up with what might be a good compromise: the game could have some "open a custom amount of chests in the background" option, this way as soon as we start the process the chest menu would close and we'd see our crusaders on the field, while in some corner there could be a text saying "chests opening in progress". It wouldn't be heavier in terms of processing since the engine would still open 100 chests at a time, just hidden from our sight, instead of us having to spam click "open 100 chests" until we have opened thousands of chests. This wa...

Hi pibedtorres,

You're welcome for the chest code and the Q&A. :)

It's a neat suggestion, but still has the issue of competing save calls between the chests opening and the changing areas. But we also don't plan on having that kind of automation for chest opening. We're definitely aware that some players have stock piles of silver chests and we've started tossing around some ideas.

Come back to game and find auto-advance off but everything else as it should be with no chance that the crusaders stalled - yet it's further along than when i left, so it wasn't just an instance of forgetting to turn on auto-advance in the first place.

Was that just on Farmer Wrestling, or was that on dungeons as well?

Hi Erika,

I really enjoyed this season's dungeons rewards. I'm looking forward to season 4 ^^

Quick question: is it normal that I seem to stall at 50 dungeons coins from around area 5600 to area 6100 (which is my maximum for now)?

Hi Sarali1533,

That's awesome. We're looking forward to season 4 as well.

Yeah, from area 500 to area 10,500 approximately, the dungeon coin drops only go up 2 coins every 500 areas completed, so with the Dungeon Coin buff, seeing 50 coins from that end goal is correct.

so at current rate next idols buff around xmas.

It's more like 11 weeks or so to the next Idol buff, with each buff taking about 3 weeks to achieve.

If you don't find the colouring sheets fun, then you don't have to submit one. The activity is meant to be fun, with an extra bonus if people participate that players wouldn't have had otherwise.

Hello Erika !

I have 2 suggestions to make for possible QoL improvement.

1/ Opening chests : if I remember correctly, you said it is not in your plans to make us open them by batches of more than 100, is that right ? So my idea is to put a timer so it opens automatically every 10 seconds for example. A check box after opening the first batch that will activate the auto-opening. Is that something you can think be added ?

2/ Can we have a filter in the runes interface for crusaders who don't have all runes unlocked ? We have one for crusaders with unlocked runes (but not equipped) but we could use that new filter to find easily crusader that can have a new rune.

Have a nice week !

Hi Dragon97240,

1) That's not something we would consider adding.

2) That can probably be a filter we have. I'll note it down on our QoL list.

Have a great week yourself. :)

Thanks for the code.

Don't know if someone has mentioned this yet, or not. The objective "Unusual Friends" is not working. I have completed the objective several times. It shows as completed and then, goes back as not yet completed. When this is fixed, will we be required to complete the objective once again?

Hi Sophie,

Yes, the Unusual Friends achievement bug has been reported.

It is giving a false completion as well as not staying completed, and we're looking into it.

Provided on how much of a buff you are actually getting from Rex and Drosenthes and is being saved to the server, yes you would need to attempt it again after you see the note in the change log about the achievement being fixed.

Any thoughts on the weekly challenge to increasing the tokens earned for deeper runs. Technically you do, but the drop rate is so low, it's not worth it after reaching 100.

It's an item on the list for my challenge revamp update, to make going deeper on challenges more rewarding.

since no easy rune combining then better no new maps or new max rewards area cap for next dungeon season.

1) No, we don't plan on extending the dungeons. It was only a handful of reports, and there's still time to sprint for points.

2) Runes add some power, but not having the fast merging doesn't prevent players from getting power from other sources to tackle season 4.

Gonna be a busy time for me during the dungeon season break. I have to finish up the tier 6 event objectives (recruited Vira already), have three tier 5 objectives for Ghostbeard's Greed and all eight tier 5 objectives to do in Grimm's Idle Tales. Oh, almost forgot, and the challenge this week... :-)

You're welcome for the code.

I believe you can do it Croq!

We're doing our best, but like almost all event achievements, you can still achieve it when the event is not running, as it doesn't require being on the event free play to achieve.

Hello Erika, thanks for the code :)

my question today:

why are there some skins that add a plant tag but no gender tags?

released plant crusaders are usually male + female

there are skins working like that as well

chef casey skin. plant and male tag is added

eiralon skin. plant and female tag is added

bush whacker skin and jiao skin only add the plant tag but no gender tag.

there is no skin for jack but jack is missing the female tag as well.

why? if casey can be male, why jiao cant be female?

is it intended? if so, why?

and: why does the crow has no gender tag? crow only has 4 tags total.

Hi Made_In_The_80s,

You're welcome for the code.

Jack doesn't really count, since he's from the before times. You'll note that we didn't do a tag pass on him when we added the Flora, as he still has his Animal tag as well, which he should no longer have.

Crooked Crow is meant to be genderless, as they are an entity, like the Evanescent.

Otherwise, there's a lot of moving pieces in the game, so it was probably just an oversight. We do our best for consistency, but there's not really too many hard and fast rules as far as tags are concerned, even this late into the game.

So to make the dungeon points and dungeon coins buff more appealing, we've changing up the base drops of the points and coins from the dungeon objectives, which will be a neat experiment.
