Important Updates on Jobs, Scrip, and Rental Changes:
As many of you know, we've been changing up the Jobs System over the past week. We've expanded the Wiki Article going more in depth and is located HERE.Starting now, play a few sessions ,and get a feel for the game loop cadence and how the market settles under normal play now that we've adjusted the majority of the jobs available. In the coming days once you've had a chance to feel it out as intended, take it to the Roundtable Post located HERE. I'd like both pro and con feedback there, if we don't know what's working well, we may not know to keep or expand on it while addressing other concerns.
There are still likely typos and mistakes riddled throughout, but it's far enough along that I'll be fielding bug reports via discord forum threads. Please read carefully the game menus, and Wiki and Roundtable before reporting bugs and feedback.
Note that around the camp, I still owe:
Daily Jobs (Various functionalities including Skillgain, Statgain, resources, and Scrip)
- Metalworking
Shift Work (25% Requirements: Scrip + Skillgain Chance)
- Chemistry
- Cooking
- Mercantilism
- Skulduggery (I may switch their Daily Job to this, given the new additional ways to improve it naturally with Graffiti)
- Military's kill order/Survival Jobs are hardcoded, so it'll take a minute for those to update
I'll likely add more based on narrative improvements to the camp.
A few more important things to note as a result of this change:
RENTALS: We've been changing the rental currency over to Scrip to get the intended economy design in play, but we're offering a grace period for current renters to keep using copper in the meantime. In one week, remaining copper rentals will switch over to Scrip, so be sure to check on yours and make sure you have enough money in the bank to cover it, so you don't lose your rental. This includes you, Shanty enjoyers.
SCRIP PURCHASE ORDERS: We've been working on a means to have Purchase Orders allow X Resource for Y Scrip to stretch its value in trading. Keep an eye on Patch Notes for that change.
Thanks for your patience and hanging out with us in beta, appreciate you being here for it.
