    Beside all the other stuff, the quest improvements are very good.

    To make quests more meaningful BY HAVING A CHOICE, HOW TO ANSWER (telling a truth or a lie, depending on our compassion, etc.) is the right way to MAKE OUR DECISIONS MORE UNIQUE to other players decisions and give more meaning on our choosen path! I hope, this reflects in consequences later inside the story ... and quests depending on our decisions before :)

    Something I just thought of, SoTAMap stills shows up in the list of community resources:

    https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/?page_id=59279

    SotAMap.com
    • This amazing map allows you to pan the camera out for a global view of the map of New Britannia, or incrementally zoom in until you make out the finest details of the Overworld map of Novia and The Hidden Vale. And more of the town maps are being added every month!
    ---> Not sure if this needs to change now that Portalarium has taken it over. And a question - where on the website can we access this new version?

    ***Edit - BTW, great update!!!
    ***Edit - Looks like @Lord Andernut already asked about the new map link :)

    I'm not sure everything is working. The overworld loads fairly quickly, I can search for a town (I used Highvale, although there is still an issue where clicking something in the search dropdown ignores the search). However, clicking the link to load the map just sits there forever. Its been 5 minutes trying to load and its drawn nothing. It keeps trying to load https://www.shroudoftheavatar.com/map/images/ghost256.png and getting a 404, but never recovers.

    We are still uploading about 20% of our assets, so there will be a few maps with missing tiles until later tonight. What you saw was due to our base ghost tile asset not being added yet, so the missing tile kept trying to replace itself (but it was missing!). I went ahead and pushed the fix for that that, so if you do a hard refresh (ctrl + f5 or ctrl/cmd+shift+r), you shouldn't see the problem any longer.

    @Rok Yrikk, any estimate on how long it might be before Governors are once again able to edit the maps for their towns?

    It is scheduled for R49!

    Also, we already have the ability to put all the current housing data from the game into our maps, but we are still testing it. So, lots that get moved around or change ownership will be automatically updated on the map (with some delay).

    Very Cool! That was unexpected. I had gotten pretty good at editing the map and placing lots myself.

    Thank you very much for the response, Sir. I appreciate it.

    Can we have a quick summary of how many maps are still uncloned yet? ( x from x)
