Hello!

As promised, one (and hopefully the last!) hotfix to Syrenthia. It was originally planned to release early this week, but we wanted to add a bit extra to this hotfix, as the next update will be at least a couple of weeks away and should include the first Quality of Life improvements.

Let's get started!

Plan based on the poll

Based on the poll, here's the rough plan on how we're going to be implementing the major QoL additions that we asked your opinion on. As an important note, the plan is not final and might change depending on what makes sense at which point, but for now the following plan follows both what were most wanted and what makes sense from a development standpoint.

• Gear sets were voted as the most important feature, with Travel + 1 coming as a close second. From a development effort standpoint, gear sets are one of the easiest, and that's why I'll start with that. Also, having it done is going to make it easier to integrate with Travel + 1 and Crafting Overhaul.
• Travel + 1 will be the second feature. It is the most "work-heavy" out of all of these, as it also requires a rework on how activities work in the game. While working on that, we'll make the necessary changes to be able to use the new system with Notifications and optimize the calculations and clear the way for some more diverse activities to add in future content updates.
• Travel + 1 will likely include some major improvements to the main navigation of the game.
• Crafting Queue & Crafting Overhaul and Banking & Inventory Overhaul will be after Travel + 1.
• Lastly, Notifications, Tracking & favoriting, and WalkPedia will be implemented along with adding some minor QoL tweaks around the game.

Thank you all for voicing your opinion, and it was great to hear which features meant the most to you! Happy walking ❤️️
