Quick Estate Updates

[Lamont]

Hullo all!

Just passing along a note that we have updated the Housing Commission and Treasure Hunt threads. Soon to come will be an expansion to the Plantation (Berry) Services, as well as a whole new aspect to Estates centered around the concept of Prestige.

You can read about the coming-soon updates in the Housing Commission thread.


We're workin' as fast as we can but we hope that our changes will make Estates a bit more rewarding for owners versus the current system that gears them toward visitors. There's no schedule for when we'll have the rest of the Estate Expansion out.


Cheers all!

Hullo again!

That aforementioned Plantation expansion for Estates has been completed! While having a section for Berries is now an extra cost on top of the base Estate features, it comes with more than just a few places to grow berries ;D

Now, your Estates can have Apricorn & Honey Trees! The latter being the most exciting, as we've composed special encounter lists to pull from when you plant your honey tree that are different depending on the type of area your Estate Plantation is sitting in. Such as, if you're on a mountain versus someone who's Estate is a docked Ship. We wanted to give honey a bit more use on the forum since currently there's only 1 tree to use it on ;D Now, hopefully with Estates we can spice that up.


Anyone with an existing Berry Service in their Estate will not have to pay any extra to use it... but if you want Honey & Apricorn trees you will need to pay for the difference of the expansion considering the old Estate cost (so $1000).
