2. Transportation System 🚅
Transportation System is released, First of all, to meet the needs of traveling between rental lands through Rental System. In the future, this will also be the transportation system for WanaTown or move to friends’ farms after our Multiplayer mode is completed. We are sure in the future the transportation system will be expanded even futher.
In this v.1.1.0 version, we will give all players a default station with basic functions for free and of course players will need to upgrade them in the future to be able to experience more other facilities that the station brings.
- Instructions on how to let players move to rented lands:
- Players need to stand at the station area to call the train.
- Each move will cost: 10 $WAI
- No charge when moving back to home Land.
- Renter: Land rental area visual effect
- Land Owner: Will see their contracts created on Land and can view contract information in different states (open For Rent, Rented Out…)
3. Default Land mechanism adjustment ✍️
Definition of ‘Default Land player‘: The player that doesn’t own any NFT Land and not being in any land rental contract.
With the launch of the “Land Rental System”, it is also time for the team to bring the role of Default Land back to its original concept of pure “Game experience”, moving into the future concept of “Free to play”. This means that players must own NFT land or rent the land to be able to “Earn” in WANAKA Farm game.
However, that does not mean that Default Land Player cannot use the facilities in WANAKA Farm. We will always have rooms for you to participate in mini-games or enjoy the fun of WanaTown in the future.
- The following changes will take effect as soon as v.1.1.0 is released:
- Default land players will not recover the Character Energy.
- All the Quests will not open for Default Land player.
- Default Land players can still use Energy recovering product Items.
- The mechanism of renting slots on default land temporarily will remain the same as before.
4. Captcha image System 🚔
During the operation of the project, we discovered that some players took advantage of the loophole using Bot tool to create a lot of clone accounts in order to hurt the in-game economy. That’s why we decided to launch a Captcha image system to authenticate you as a real player, this will minimize some players creating Bots with bad intentions to the game.
We hope our farmers won’t mind to take an extra step of Captcha verification.
5. User custom configuration (Graphics Setting) ⚙️
In line with the team’s desire to bring the game to more players, we launch the “Graphics settings” feature, which makes the game work better in many different configuration profiles both on PC and Mobile.
Now, players can customize the graphic setting with many different levels. In addition, there will be additional customization features “Windowed” & “Resolution“, making players more comfortable in customizing when playing games.
6. Sound Update 🎵
In this update we have added Sound to the actions of the characters in the game, helping players to experience the game better. Of course, this is not the last update, there will be many more Sound updates in the upcoming versions to help the Sound system in the game gradually become more flawless.
