    Greetings Avatars,

    Player Owned Towns are an amazing feature of our game that facilitates online community. They bring players together in an infinite array of interactions including commerce, combat, and of course dance! It was always the intent that POTs would be multiplayer spaces.

    With that said we always looked for ways that there might exist to make them work in Offline Mode that would not consume too much time nor resources. However after careful investigation we have determined that the level of effort required to make POTs work in Offline Mode for the owner (while at the same time not showing other POTs) is not a responsible use of our backers’ funds. Therefore we will not be supporting POTs in Offline Mode, they will be an Online Mode only feature. This also means POTs will no longer be visible in Offline Mode.

    We apologize for any of you who were hoping to take advantage of them in Offline Mode.
