Update v0.7.5: reworked Wintertodt, Tempoross and Fishing Trawler, combat xp x3 and many fixes

v0.7.5 went live on 9 November. The hotfixes of 9 and 10 November are part of it and are listed here too.

New content

  • Sailing: man your boat cannon, aim at sea monsters and fire real cannonballs. Friends aboard can operate a cannon too, and sea monsters show their remaining health.
  • Sailing: it starts with a playable Pandemonium introduction, and the workbench, repair-kit and boat-panel controls work. Sailing agents show their supply shop and let you buy its supplies.
  • Sailing: sort salvage at shore or boat stations with 1, X or All; a full inventory keeps unsorted pieces safe. Salvaging hooks work beside the rail.
  • Death's Office now has an item-retrieval window and a small one-time fee; earlier uncollected items stay safe.
  • Search your wooden, oak or teak kitchen larder to take its cooking ingredients.
  • Right-click Bren or Ric to return to your previous activity teleport after banking, or choose Stash on them to open the travel bank.
  • Commands now open a clickable book with favourites; Slice, Peel and Mash can each run a command you choose.

Changes

  • Combat experience is now three times higher.
  • Rare drops are announced to the whole world in game, and broadcasts now have a black shadow. The Gemstone Crab announces its spawn.
  • Wintertodt: Herblore xp from rejuvenation potions is 15 times higher, and fletching xp grows with each kindling in a row (up to +45%). One click fletches the whole inventory.
  • Wintertodt: you deal twice the damage alone, scaling down to normal damage at 3 players. The chests check only your backpack and worn items, so you can take your reward even if you keep the item in the bank.
  • Tempoross: you wait for the start on the lobby ship, and boarding by ladder, ferry or boat puts you there. You need three damage phases to win and have twice the time.
  • Tempoross: the storm cloud drifts over the map and strikes like in Old School, and the inactive spirit pools are visible before the damage phase. Tempoross stays on its spot, and there are no Sailing spots inside the arena.
  • Tempoross: Tempoross's hit points and the energy per load scale with your crew size. Fishing and cooking are a tick faster, cooking xp is 3 times higher and points are doubled.
  • Fishing Trawler: 6 ropes, a longer trip and 125% contribution points, xp of 10,000 to 25,000 per round, and the lobby also covers below deck. Events come faster and scale with the crew, and the kraken tentacle is now a real monster.
  • Chaos altar: bones give a fixed 3.5 times xp, and bones work anywhere on the altar.
  • Theatre of Blood: the Dawnbringer special hits 75-150, and Verzik's tornadoes are limited to two that spawn far apart.
  • Your characters now share one bond pouch, and Ric stays available on every character while supporter time is active.
  • Bren and Ric have their own rivalry, roast you too, and sometimes give small Crystal or coin gifts with daily limits.
  • The Grand Exchange can now resell only items the server has bought from players, with a separate setting for each item.
  • Sailing workbenches give five times their previous Construction XP.
  • Population bots are now visible and have personal training preferences and short breaks. Bots never trade on the Grand Exchange.
  • Minigames and raids have live activity tuning and optional random Crystal bonuses. Borrowed supplies return on leaving, and activity countdowns appear at the bottom centre again.
  • House storage keeps complete outfits and item properties safe; wardrobes now build the correct room-specific furniture.
  • Client: draw distance is 100 by default, hiscores and Grand Exchange lookups point at our server, there is no Jagex Accounts panel, and the Grand Exchange link opens our market page. Downloads come from play.privateps.com and the installer buttons follow the current launcher version.
  • Default F-keys: characters with no keybinds get the standard tab keys and Esc closes windows. Saving your own keybinds is not solved yet.
  • Highscores: Moderator is the highest eligible rank; Admin, Co-owner and Owner no longer appear.
  • Donations: when a month brings in more than the costs, the surplus is turned into bonds and shared among that month's donors, at least one bond each. See the Support page.
  • Launcher: recent updates show readable summaries in larger cards. Wiki: new Chat crowns page, a start guide for every skill, and more quest walkthroughs.

Fixes

  • Fixed the House Viewer failing to display your built rooms.
  • Boat recovery charges match the displayed price; boat cannons use their real firing position; a Sailing job payment cannot repeat; bounty trophies are secured if your inventory fills during the final fight, and canceled hunts stay canceled.
  • BUG-0079: God Wars grapple pillar, Bandos big door and ice bridge shortcuts work.
  • BUG-0080: dying no longer lets hits and attacks through, and a death watchdog catches stuck deaths.
  • BUG-0094 and BUG-0111: the Fishing Trawler kraken tentacle is a real monster and no longer misbehaves.
  • BUG-0102: the chatbox key listener works again after our own windows close.
  • BUG-0104: the Waterfall Quest rope can be used on the rock and tree from the island across the water.
  • BUG-0107: skeletons no longer have stretchy attacks.
  • BUG-0110: an animation that never ended no longer leaves players stranded; stranded players are rescued.
  • BUG-0112: submitting a report always gives your keyboard back.
  • BUG-0113: characters with no keybinds get the default F-key layout at login.
  • Gemstone Crab: it can no longer be killed twice before mining, and Tempoross is centred between the poles.
  • Wintertodt: the chests no longer say you already have an item when it is only in the bank.
  • Fishing Trawler: the net's Bank-all no longer reports a false full bank. Tackle box: filling and emptying no longer duplicates items.
  • Giants' Foundry: pouring uses a player animation, so the pose no longer freezes.
  • The autocast chooser shows the spell list, and the level-up message prints once when two xp grants land in the same tick.
  • Bank: tab sizes are repaired, so tail slots belong to the main tab and the bank never logs you out.
