Monthly Archive for September, 2009

Update

Most important changes introduced during today’s maintenance:

  • Monsters don’t use skills if the target is within its attack range but is out of the skill range
  • Monsters’ skill range is no longer 9 by default
  • Range for players’ attacks and skills will check for a circular area
  • Fixed mercenary info not being re-sent after using @refresh
  • Implemented Quest Window; quest won’t appear in the window yet, NPCs update is necessary
  • Some new items in boxes (item givers) and new cards in Old Card Albums

Some changes

Today we have a new dose of changes and news:

  • Guild Notice after logging to the game will appear a bit later in the chat, so its visibility will be much better(forum proposal),
  • On nKDR in Payon (193,134) an NPC appeared, which changes the castle maps saved with Feeling skill for Star Gladiators, every month after the castle rotation. Every month this NPC will be actualized, currently it changes the castles from August to September ones.
  • A possibility of headgear fusion has been added for [Fashion Item] and some normal hats ( Feather Beret and Apple of Archer atm, and we are waiting for new hat proposals). The fusion will create a new hat with a fashionable look and useful stats, about the details you must ask the NPC Synthia in Payon, a few steps away from the donation items NPCs.
  • Ten new hats 10 new hats were added as donation items
  • On nKDR a new PvP arena was implemented, created by -bio-.

KDR on Twitter

We, the nKDR crew are aware, that you, players, like to know that we are taking care for you and the server. We have not forgotten and we arent gone, we are still capable and we are still working on improving KDR. It’s how things really are, though it might be hard to believe in correlation to small news frequency.
To change this ill-favored image of the server and Gms, which resides in heads of many players, we decided to inform you about the facts that we are alive (important), we are well (less important) and we are working with the server (which is the most important). Writing short news would miss its point, and writing on the forums would cause, that our small news would be gone in the sea of other posts and topics. So, we came up with an idea to use a tool created just for the case we are dealing with – to let you know whats new, and whats up – Twitter!

Our new registries can be read at KDR profile or here because the registries will appear on the side info bar, above the new board topics section. This way or another, its worth to bookmark this address , http://twitter.com/KDRServer if we will ever have any troubles with cleaner ladies or there will be a needed break in the site activity, you will get all the info you need on Twitter.

  • problem with quest items from Kiel Hyre quest has been solved,
