Fantasy RPG Forum - Standing Trials

Hi all

Small but significant QoL update! We can now transfer / gift WP to any PC who is not ours (not a linked PC to your account(s)

That's handy, innit? The money will leave your WP ledger, and will appear in theirs.

Hi all

Minor amendment to Tier 2 Skills.

1. They can now be applied for when you have a grand total of 2,400 XP.
2. The 2,500 XP threshold now includes starter skills, etc: eg: It's literally just what your grand total XP is.

Thanks!

Hi all

Tech Guy is currently working on cleaning up the top header bar. As part of that, I've been spending some time on the Wiki (including breaking it... hmmmm) and cleaning up some pages.

Please have a look. Even if you're an experienced player, you never know when there's something useful!

• Jargon Busting - a place with jargon for new players (trial, bit, etc)
• Moderation - I've populated this with the "Types of Thread" information and explained / linked everything from self-mod to GST (I hope!)
• Timekeeping = this is now populated with the "Dates and Calendars" old page that was simply linked there before. Also now has the link to Seasons in there.
• The New Player Information Page is now updated and correct. All the "first level" pages in this category (the ones that appear in the left hand menu) are now populated.
• Progressing Your PC this menu page has now been populated with information about this category.
• Businesses & Factions has been populated with information and links.
• Progressing Renown has been populated with information and links.

I'll keep going with this over the next few days. Thanks!

Hi all

I'm aware that we've had a lot of exciting new features over the last year and, since Tech Guy and I are working on the Top Header at the moment, I've been looking at what information we have and where.

In light of that, I've put together the beginning of the User Guide to Standing Trials

This is the "main" guide, which gives overviews and will link to advanced guides as I make them. Currently it has the

Advanced Guide to the UCP and
User Guide to the UCP CS

I have plans to do
An Advanced Guide to the Top Header (once Tech Guy and I have finished it!)
A Guide to the Posting Area (linking to the BB Code Guide on site [ on the top of each page in the announcements] )
A Guide to the Automated Review System for Players
A Guide to the Automated Review System for Volunteers.
A Guide to Topic Tags for Volunteers (we have this but it needs updating)
A Guide to Topic Tags for Players.
Possibly (if needed) a guide to the MCP (moderator control panel).

Thanks!

Hi all

Huge "THANK YOU!" to Tech Guy. Our next release is here and it's an updated top header!

• Clarified that the queue count on the XP page refers only to Solos, as collars are not subject to queue limits.
• Header navigation improvements:
  • Updated all the links for the lore/wiki.
  • Added many new sections and new player guides.
  • Added deeper links to the UCP Character areas.
    ]*] Added a drop-down for the ‘Season’ link to offer some quick-facts about the current cycle and seasons, including a Cycle Change Countdown!

I'll get going on the Advanced Guide to the Header for more detail!

Thanks!

Hi all

And the "Advanced Guide to the Header Bar" is on the Wiki .

It takes you through the contents of the header bar. Thanks!

Hi,

An exciting improvement today - the process for a new character has been automated. The "Basic CS" can now be done via the UCP where you literally just pick your starter package and skills and it auto-fills all appropriate areas (XP, Knowledge, WP, etc) - this will mean that people can spend less time worrying about how to format their CS etc. The wiki, auto-generate CS and Welcome PM have all been updated to reflect this.
