Gilded rank (cosmetics), QoL updates, improvements for mobile devices, bug fixes

New

  • A new item has been added to the shop: Gilded. A good amount of players have been wanting to support the game beyond what is available in the shop currently, and I hope this is a decent enough answer to that! Nothing the rank contains will offer any gameplay/competitive advantage - it's all cosmetic or QoL at best. Similarly to Premium, purchasing it will grant you a token which can be activated or traded away. Here are the current benefits it provides:
    • Gilded icon next to your name
    • Ability to buy Cosmetic scrolls from the Local market for 1M gold each. These can be applied on equippable items for a cool effect. They do not alter the items' stats in any way and they are untradeable.
    • You're unaffected by chat idle timeouts. On a slightly different note, timeouts for regular players were raised from 20 minutes of inactivity to 45. Kind of gathering data with how the timeouts will play with this update when it comes to resource usage. It's possible that chat timeouts are removed in the future all together, so I'd advise you not to get the rank for this benefit alone.

More may come in the future, but nothing beyond the usefulness of the existing benefits.

This feels like a good time to give a special thanks to everyone who has supported the game so far, your contributions have been absolutely vital in the continued development and success of Idle Clans. I'm extremely grateful to be in a position to work on Idle Clans in this capacity and be able to make it the best game that it can be together with you all. Thank you!

Changes & updates

  • Hovering equipped items in your inventory will now show detailed information on the item instead of a simple "click to unequip" tooltip
  • Chat idle timeout raised from 20 minutes to 45 minutes
  • The text colour in premium benefits is now black for better readability
  • Titles of categories in the Local market are now bigger
  • "Send to clan vault" and "Send to player" buttons in inventory item interaction popup are now hidden if the interacted item is untradeable. NOTE: As a result of this change, the aforementioned buttons are incorrectly disabled for Gold on mobile devices. Works as it should on Steam, and fixes will follow for iOS and Android.
  • Slightly modified how the shop unlocks are displayed in player profiles for a cleaner look
  • The "Update available" popup now correctly links to App Store on iOS
  • Orientation of the game can now be rotated to the left as well as right on mobile devices

Bug fixes

  • Fixed re-equipping arrows appearing to repeatedly add to your damage in combat stats popup (visual bug)
  • Combat is now fully shutdown when creating or joining a raid lobby
  • Fixed an issue in group combat lobby where if a player in your lobby left and was then reinvited, their name wouldn't appear in the party
  • Fixed an issue in group combat lobby where if your party left and you were the last person in the lobby, the ready button would incorrectly become visible
  • Fixed an issue where you could accept a raid invitation after going into a raid of your own
  • Fixed the logout time of offline players being accepted into clans not being transmitted correctly
  • The items dropped from raids at a 0.05% chance weren't applying their effects correctly. Fixed
  • Disconnection handling on devices is handled much more robustly now
