[shapesifter13]

Hey Townies,

We have a whole heap of new cosmetic items coming your way! While we have been working on different improvements to our Unity versions of the game our artist has been hard at work on some sweet new cosmetics. We will be making some older cosmetics purchasable with Merit Points , and Taunts will be purchasable with Merit Points now as well! Check out everything that has changed below:

NEW FEATURES
• Cosmetics - Characters: Hex Master, Consort, Hypnotist and Vigilante.
• Cosmetics - Pets: Owl.
• Cosmetics - Houses: Aquarium, Sphinx, and Tipi.
• Cosmetics - Backgrounds: Alien, Army, and Construction.
• Cosmetics - The following are now purchasable with Merit Points: Crusader, Poisoner, Medusa, and all Taunts.

IMPROVEMENTS
• Game - Role Card - When dead, the empty role card now includes a transparent tombstone graphic.
• Game - Mobile only - the copy button visible on each chat log entry has been removed .To copy a chat message, simply press and hold the message until the message is copied.
• Game - For the Vampire Hunter, overheard vampire chats now have a unique style.

BUG FIXES

It's an issue from a security standpoint. There's a reason why games don't allow it.

Hooray! More Cosmetics sounds like more money for BMG in lieu of a dying playerbase.
*stamps approval*

For something they've done since day one? Okay then.

[Jerme]

Please keep in mind that the creation of cosmetics does not require a developer, thus it does not affect the speed how the game is coded.

Yes.

I certainly wouldn't give them a stamp of approval for fixing all of the stream crashes on lobby creation once this patch was pushed to the server.... because that probably won't happen.

(plus playing with a town of half default names who have disconnected is preferable.

Actually really good. The rich text wasnt actually as bas you think, i found that most tags are just not accepted and only color, size, b, and i, worked and i never got font to work properly.

[PrincessKira]

Great changes. Honestly, I was kind of scared when I saw a player with a coloured last will. The text changing thing does not really fit ToS.

[kikiyanah]

okay so, im new here but why on this patch, a lot of players in queue are afk'ing? I hope ya'll fix this cause I can't play a game where I'm not having fun because it's always a quick game?

[HellnoRO]

[EqsyLootz]

Since the patch, there has been many crashes on Unity. How long till that is going to be fixed?

[shapesifter13]

Any issues crashes on Unity should be automatically recorded for us to look through. We are at an all time low % of crashes, but they do still occur from time to time for certain users, or in certain situations.

Please don't post your email on a live public forum. This is for your safety. I've removed the email.

If you've sent an email in to support@blankmediagames.zendesk.com, Shapesifter will get to it when he can. Please stay patient. Thanks.

TBH They should keep it removed, because the way it was had a few problems:

- Formatted wills would show up as a markup language mess and be hard to read on web version
- Pressing the "Copy to Chat" would copy the whole thing with the formatting codes still present leading to a bunch of markup syntax
- You could write info into your will that only players using Web would be able to read, by simply incasing it in <mark> or <size=1> since web cant see the formatting-
- It was impossible to remove the formatting codes from your will without erasing the entire thing.
- Only worked in wills, couldnt format Death Notes or Notes,
- No max or min font size, so you could break the UI.

there possibly are security issues as well depending on what markup options where avalible. . (eg, if there was one for executing scripts or something, that would be bad..)

if there where to add it back then they should make it an offical feature, (that works on all versions of the game..)
