Changelog 2018-05-30: Look at my horse!

    Finally the mounts update is available! It introduces two horses as well as a camel and a donkey. In order to ride on a mount, you have to craft a saddle first. There are optional satchels available which can be attached to the saddles to provide some additional storage space.

    We also added a few new items, a binocular, a telescope and a steel sledgehammer, as well as a riding helmet. Apart from that, there are 8 new music tracks for underground dungeons, and various other changes: For example, posters support more levels of transparency now, which means you can place semi-transparent posters in your world. There are also some commands which are useful to edit existing construction elements (e.g. flip them, change the texture etc).
    Last but not least, you'll find some smaller additions in this update, e.g. changes to some weather effects.

    It's our intention to improve the npc AI now, which will allow us to implement more hostile npcs, especially human enemies (e.g. bandits). Trains, cars and boats are also on our list, as well as some other features, so stay tuned for the next updates! :)

    A small hotfix is now available (0.9.3.1), unfortunately this also requires a server update. This update just fixed a minor crash issue and also added the missing binocular/telescope to the crafting menu :whistling:

    You do not seem to be able to access the map when mounted? Is this by design?

    This will probably change in the near future :) Right now "sitting on a horse" is handled like "sitting on a chair", which disables certain inputs...

    It tastes just like raisins.

    Hehe :thumbsup:


    Quote from agiser

    I couldnt find binocular and telescope.

    They should be available now after the latest hotfix ;)

    Wish I could play the game for a bit, but got some other things going on. Thanks for the update :thumbsup: I'll have to wait and see if we got lightening and if the sound of the thunder has been increased. When those storms roll through I kind of wish the thunder & lightening could be a lot louder. Example: In real life (yeah I know it's a game) thunder can sometimes make you jump out of your skin when these storms roll through in RW the clouds are always flowing in the same direction. Some windstorms maybe? I don't know if I could modify the weather to bring twisters, hurricanes & more to the game I would and call it the RW True Storms mod. I just think the weather could use a bit of an overhaul, it's new I give you that; just saying. :)

    It appears the Saddle cannot be removed, or at least not easily....


    I have been lucky twice to get the "Removing saddle" progress bar, till about 90%, then it just stops.
