Quality of Life Update: Bags in Lockboxes
Update 1.7.1.0.41826
Hello fellow Townsfolk! We bring to you an exciting Quality of life update which directly impacts how you can store your items. This update brings new function to the lockboxes in the Town Hall by adding a new bag slot to the storable options.
Bags in Lockboxes:
When you open your lockbox, you will notice a new slot on the left side with a bag icon in it. This is to signify you can place your bag in the slot. Rest assured the bag can be stuffed full of items and you will be able to store the bag. This essentially means you can store up to TWO CHESTS more worth of storage with the right bag + bag attachments. Not to mention you can also still have the bag on your back for storage of items.
Wyrm Leather Drop Rate Increase:
Before the update, Standalone players were having a hard time gathering the resources to make the elusive Hoarder's bag. Well, with this update we have increased the drop rates from 1/20 chance for a Wyrm to drop an item and a 1/10 chance for that item to be a Large leather roll for a combined chance of 1/200 Wyrms down to a much more reasonable chance of 1/4 chance for a Wyrm to drop an item and 1/8 chance for that item to be a Large Leather roll, for a combined chance of 1/32 for a Large Leather roll drop from Wyrms. This brings the drop rate much close to the 1/10 chance of getting a drop from Dais on PC version with the Forest update. We decided to increase this as a means of creating the best possible storage available for the new bag slot.
Community Engagement:
Feedback on Lockbox Locations:
Alongside this change, we also had the discussion of either moving lockboxes from Town Hall to another location or adding more lockboxes around the world. We would like to invite the players to discuss further into where they think lockboxes would best fit in the world.
A few caveats to locations are as follows:
- Any chunk a lockbox is moved or removed from would need to be wiped.
- There are some chunks that are too busy for lockboxes to be added to without a possible decrease in performance, for example, the Marketplace.
Suggestions for Lockbox Optimization:
Have any other hidden gem updates we can do to the Lockbox to improve the game? Feel free to share those with us as well. You can share your feedback on Twitter/X, Reddit, Discord or the Feedback Forum post. We continue to strive to improve the gameplay experience for all players of the game, whether you are a new player or you have been with us for 5-7 years.
We are excited to see the wonderful feedback our players provide us with in regards to lockboxes and look forward to the future updates for A Township Tale. If you have not already, feel free to join us for discussions over on our Official Discord.
Happy gaming all, looking forward to seeing what else we can bring to you in 2024.
Hotfix 1.7.1.0.41844:
- Large Leather rolls were removed from Cave chests and crates, due to a large amount of them spawning due to Cave Generation code.
