24 July Updates: broadcast system
Posted: Mon Jul 24, 2023 6:25 pm
Today's update introduces a broadcast system that allows us to convey server-wide messages to players in-game. The main advantage is that we will be able to keep all our players up to date with the latest news, without them having to constantly check the forums. Huge thank you to @Raj for working this out!
When you right-click the message, it will allow you to open the URL and visit the relevant forum thread. You can also dismiss the message to stop its display.
By default, broadcast messages will only be displayed for 5 minutes after logging in, after which they will automatically disappear on their own.
Additionally, you can now use "Ctrl-V" to paste the contents of your computer's clipboard into a prompt (for example when searching an item on the G.E.). You could already use "Ctrl-V" to paste clipboard contents into your chatbox, now it also works for other prompts.
