These balance changes are expected to reach the bot on 9/30/2022 or later. They are being announced now so users can make gameplay decisions in advance. Within 7-14 days of the update release, an announcement will be sent in the game system-wide. Changes are subject to minor adjustments. Only changes that do not positively impact current players are noted in this announcement for fairness.

I am aware of the many bugs currently in the bot and am trying my best to get them resolved ASAP. If you have opened a ticket I am working through the ticket queue – unfortunately it is well over 100 tickets, and I am trying to resolve a good amount per day. If you are still awaiting an answer I appreciate the patience and apologies for the slow response.

Additionally there will be some drastic balance changes coming to the bot. These will be announced at least 2 weeks in advance so that all users can prepare as needed before they are finalized, as well as to collect feedback and suggestions.

Best,
-Wewert

-Weekly burn events have begun
At the end of each week, the users with the most amount burned will earn shards and more! Check the /burn command for more info.
-Resolve bugs with ranking up and bank
If you lost any items or currency as a result of this glitch please open a ticket in the Support Server.

-Complete migration to new database system
‍ Although this update does not bring as many drastic front end changes, the backend handling system has been near-completely rewritten. This was a change long overdue, and allows us to support:
‼️ Quest reset and userdata no longer resets on bot restart
‼️ Stock updates and events now trigger on the hour
*Support for real-time gameplay. One step closer to faction wars, pet battles, and hopefully less rate-locking
*Additional security against item duplication glitches
*Higher data operation rates and allowing new features like the overhauled item market
-Real-time item market
/sell has been overhauled! All item sells (except for autosells) go through the Market now, meaning users can place buy orders and outbid the bot for desired items. This allows for better item price discovery and opens up new opportunities for advanced features to come.
-/burn command
/burn is a new command that allows you to… burn money. You aren't guaranteed to gain anything by burning money. Weekly burn events will allow you to earn prizes by competing for most money burned. More uses are planned for this feature.
-Prestige perk changes
☁️ Cloud Storage – unlock up to 6 additional generator slots!
Nepotism, Holy Discount, and Green Thumb have been changed to allow for higher max upgrades at the cost of items.
-Weekly stats and stat leaderboards for Burn and Gamble
-New trophies for item collection, pets, etc
-Various bug fixes and improvements
-More undocumented changes I probably forgot
