The Viranov

September 20, 2015 at 3:39 PM 52 Comments

THE VIRANOV - Congratulations! The Science and Research Fund has been completed. The SARC has been able to complete the Viranov species. It's now available in the Creature Labs.

It finally happened... Ark City's underbelly of criminal scientists, the People of Free Creatures, have acquired their own set of tools that allow them to genetically engineer species, similar to that of the Science and Research Center. But while the People of Free Creatures prop themselves up on genetic uniqueness as something good, they seem to create rather unsafe creatures that become enemies of the genetically unmodified, naturally-occurring species of Ark.

So how did this creature end up at the Science and Research Center in Ark City if it was in fact not created by the Science and Research Center? Well that's a point of major controversy among Arkians: it is generally accepted and believed that the Science and Research Center in Ark City is selling this criminally-made creature because it refuses to acknowledge the People of Free Creatures as a legitimate group and would rather claim the creature for themselves.

Some say that the People hacked into the Science and Research Center's mainframe and injected their own genetic code into the creature-making machine... thus the Viranov. The Science and Research Center sells this species in the Creature Labs with the following care instructions: "Warning! This creature is very dangerous and has no specific diet or behavior regimen."

Item Collection Updates

September 14, 2015 at 3:52 PM 13 Comments

ITEM COLLECTIONS - Permanent, multi-use items (which at the moment only includes Cash Shop Travels) will now be counted only once in creature Item Collections. This is to prevent people from adding and removing Cash Shop Travels a number of times to boost their Item Collection "use counts" to infinite numbers.

As of right now there are no other permanent, multi-use items. Any other items (i.e. toys) that are multi-use are still not permanent, in that they always have a chance of breaking and won't last forever. We'll still tally those multi-use counts in Item Collections.

We hope that this change makes sense. In other words, once you use a Cash Shop Travel, it's listed as "1" forever.

Item Collection counts for Cash Shop Travels have been reset to 1.

I may only count once but I still look amazing on an Aquolt!

Cash Shop Travel Updates

September 13, 2015 at 3:56 PM 16 Comments

CASH SHOP TRAVELS - In case you hadn't already heard, Cash Shop Travels are now multi-use items.

SLIGHT BUG - There was a slight bug that prevented Grand Cathedral, Dwarf Star 1000 Space Ship, Ark City Greenhouse, Ark City Art Gallery, and some other Cash Shop Travels from reappearing in Inventories since the update 2 days ago. In case you lost one of these Travels upon removal in the last 48 hours, please Submit a Ticket and we'll fix it.

HOW THINGS ACTUALLY WORK - Yes, just remove Cash Shop Travels normally and they'll reappear in your Inventory. There aren't any special instructions in your Cove.

ELIGIBLE RESTORATIONS - Any users who have submitted requests to have their previously-used Cash Shop Travels restored have now been processed. Some of you had quite the collection! We want to remind users that pre-item collection Cash Shop Travels (that were used before item collections) are not eligible for restoration. Why? Because we have no other account records other than these uses to base things off.

Thank you for your understanding.

I'm getting pretty good at restoring Travels.


CASH SHOP INDICATORS - Cash Shop Travels are now indicated by a CaveCash icon in your Inventory (money.png). If you see that icon, the item is multi-use.

There's also a new block section entitled Item Notes that will appear for multi-use Cash Shop Travels. This is a friendly notice upon item use.
