Patch 69 - Nov 6, 2008

Post by Derrick »

  • Adjusted the ratio and threshold that NPC vendors use to scale their buy prices.
  • Sheep will respawn their wool slower if there are many nearby (overcrowding)
  • Detect Hidden skill in houses will no longer reveal players outside of houses.
  • In Nox spell initial Poison hit delay corrected
  • Items being bought from vendors will be of the same color and type as the items displayed in the buy menu
  • Stats correction for Horse from T2ADemo (Lowers Dexterity/Stamina)
  • House Roof Tile LOS fix. One or two tiles in the center of the house were incorrectly visible from the ground level.
Nov 8 Addition:
  • All NPC vendor prices have been adjusted to era pricing. This especially effects increased buy and sell prices for Clothing and Armor, but almost no sector was left untouched (house prices were left untouched).

Good to see this server constantly improving, I think its safe to say there hasn't been a more dedicated server towards true T2A authenticity

WAR UOSA!

Adjusted the ratio and threshold that NPC vendors use to scale their buy prices.

Increased since the ratio went from 50 to 5? or decreased to prevent harvesting?

The NPC vendors were starting to reduce their buy prices at a very low quanitity on hand. They will now be interested in stocking more of these items, and will pay better.

Currently working on the complete overhaul of all vendor pricing based on Stratics and Demo buy/sell prices, which line up perfectly on about 95% of the items.

Can anyone give an estimate as to how long it takes for your horse to run out of stamina, constantly running from full?

Thanks much Hoots. I hadn't seen this list.

I did have a hard time with scroll prices because the regular stratics list gives (Circle * 10) + 2, while the T2A demo prices varied within circles, but of course the vendors don't have all the scrolls.

Much appreciated, I'll tweak the scroll prices based on this new info.

Thanks!

Thank you for your hard work, Derrick.

I must confess that I haven't enjoyed UO this much for 7 years.
