By Mod EdHey everyone, hope you've had a great and productive week so far!
Today's patch is a smaller one, aimed at fixing more bugs that came with the redesign earlier this week, plus some QOL changes I've collected from the Discord.
Next up is Patch 20 — our first content patch since launch, and it's bringing a lot of new things to explore in the world of Levla.
Let's get into today's patch!
Small break for me
From tomorrow and until Monday I will personally be gone from the computer, I'll still be available in absolute emergencies but just thought I'd let everyone know that there will be no updates until next week, but it's going to be a banger, as there will be a lot of new content introduced to Levla, I hope to bring out at least 5 quests!
You'll still see me in discord though!
New Equipment Graphics
For those who are late to the party: the creators behind RuneScape got in touch with us and asked us to change some designs so they don't resemble RuneScape as closely as they do today.
This game has always been a nod to RuneScape — a game both me and Mod Back grew up playing — but we never intended to copy it outright, so we completely understand and respect the ask from Jagex.
With that said, today we're going live with redesigns for:
- All base equipment sets
- Monk Robes
- All Paper Hats
- Weaponry
Personally I'm really happy with how it turned out. It gives Levla its own visual direction, which is awesome.
I hope you'll all understand and support these redesigns!
On top of this, two new cosmetics have been added for our Patreon supporters, delivered shortly after this patch goes live.
Streak Fixes
In Patch 19.1 I accidentally introduced a bug that reset streaks when it shouldn't have. That's fixed today, along with an underlying timezone issue that was triggering bad resets.
Everyone's broken streaks have been repaired, and I've given everyone a free freeze token as compensation. Sorry about that!
QOL & New Stuff
New Habit Type: Counter
There's a new habit type called Counter. Set a goal number and add to it throughout the day — or leave the goal empty and it completes on the first log.
Gathering Activity Consumables
Gathering activities that require a consumable (like Feathers at the fly fishing spot) will now pull it from your inventory, so remember to stock up. This is also communicated much more clearly in the app now.
Loadout Changes
Loadouts have two new options:
- Hide helmet toggle, which overrides your selected setting
- Idle set toggle, which automatically equips the loadout once you finish an adventure
Reflections Cloud Sync
You can now optionally toggle cross-device sync for your reflections. They'll be stored on our servers and seamlessly viewable on every device you use Levla on.
Note: Reflections are still encrypted on our servers for your privacy.
Other Minor Things
- Updated design on some non-migrated popups
- Slight design update to the skills screens
- There's now an update button at the bottom of the patch notes
- You can tap an NPC during an adventure to view its details and drop table
- Combat adventures now show progress, e.g. 20/200
- Skill selection now shows suggestions when creating habits or todos, to give a bit of guidance on what fits (there's no hard rule here)
- The goal is still to eliminate all 422 errors, but for now they send a clear message explaining why an action wasn't allowed
- Blocking a user now also stops them from buying your Trading Post listings
Optimizations
- Lowered our bundle size from ~100MB to ~10MB
- Improved boot time further, especially noticeable on Android (still more work to do here!)
