Yay!...It's Halloween and time to gather some yummy candies from everyone and hope no one plays any tricks!


All decked out in my little devil costume, I went out the door and down the sidewalk.
When out of nowhere I happened upon this glowing goo trail. Curiosity got the best of me, so I just HAD to follow it!

It was getting kind of creeeeeeeepy, as I heard noises that made me tremble to the bones. However, I JUST had to keep going, even though the area was getting very heavily treed. I crept deeper into the woods, when I recalled an old town myth of a hidden area that all the undead gathered at. Even knowing that, I still NEEDED to see what the noise was and why the goo trail was there!



I very carefully, though even a bit hesitant, kept walking, when the goo trail....just stopped! I looked around, it was dark and I was scared to DEATH!..The noises got LOUDER, I wanted to run, but couldn't.

A tiny light appeared a short ways in front of me, so I slowly walked up to it and that is when I SEEN it!.........

It was an extremely frightful and paralyzing sight!
It was poetrist's Pumpkin Patch!

I looked fast and then run swiftly home before anyone or thing could see me!

Congrats! You win a boootiful trophy for your profile and ONE free month account upgrade!

Previous Chapter There was a scream, it shattered the silence that he'd grown accustomed to. He winced as the scream seemed to echo in the emptiness. With a sigh, he turned, slowly making his way towards the sound. Since arriving he'd seen all manner of oddities. Which meant that someone was playing with forces they shouldn't be. It didn't take long before he'd found himself watching quite a humorous scene. Rabbit riding pestering demons surrounding a familiar looking pup - who mind you, was still screaming...a low chuckle passed between his jowls. He gave it a moment before a gruff voice rose above the screams. "You know, the more you scream, the more they will pester you. It's literally in their name "PESTERING DEMONS, and frankly, you're giving me a headache. So might you consider stopping?" Remus' felt his heart thundering, the urge to run grew as the voice spoke. A voice he didn't recognize, from the shadows...who was it? However, they seemed to know

Our revamp to the Hoard and Vault systems is now live! This update includes major improvements to searching, navigation, organization, and item usage.

Hoard/Vault Revamp

Today, we're happy to launch our revamp of the Hoard and Vault systems, both of which have received significant improvements from top-to-bottom!



Improved Searching and Filtering

One of the top suggestions in the Suggestions forum was a search feature in both the Hoard and Vault, as it would enable you to find easily and efficiently find items. We've implemented robust and comprehensive search options to many previous revamps, and this addition is a continuation of those long-term design goals.

We're excited to share with you the different ways that the Hoard and Vault now support narrowing down your item searching, including:

• Searching by name
• Filtering by stack size
• Filtering by item subcategory
• Filtering by item rarity
• Filtering by item color
• Filtering by item's usage in other game features.
• Sorting items alphabetically

Searching for the term "slime" filters the results to only items with the word "slime" in their name.

Item Interaction Window

While the legacy Hoard allowed for simple functions for only a few types of items (e.g. opening chests, applying genes and vistas, etc.), the revamp now expands the amount of available functions you can perform on a single stack of items.

We handle this through the new item interaction window, which appears when you click on the icon for any stack of items (the term "stack" meaning anything from 1-99). Each item¢s interaction window will display a custom array of buttons that will allow you to perform several actions, including (but not limited to):

• Converting food items to food points
• Opening container items
• Previewing items like familiars, apparel, skins, vistas, and scenes
• Transmuting a single item from the stack at Baldwin's Bubbling Brew (provided his cauldron is empty)
• Selling the selected item
• Selling all duplicates of the selected item, should you have more than one stack of it
• Listing the selected item for auction
• Storing the item in your Vault or withdrawing the item to you Hoard

You can dismiss this window by clicking or tapping anywhere else on the page.

Opening Chests with Random Contents

To expand upon the new actions available in the item interaction window, we've made some improvements to the act of opening chests that have randomized contents.

In the legacy version of the feature, it was only possible to open these items one-at-a-time (1). In the revamp, we've increased that count to ten-at-time (10). This should make cracking open stacks of these chests a little bit easier!

Locked Items & Favorites

At the very bottom of the item interaction window, you'll notice two toggles:

Lock

This toggle locks all instances of the item in your Hoard from being able to be sold for treasure. In the case of food items, it also prevents them from being converted to food points. If you're holding onto some items for a special purpose, objective, or sentimental value, this is a great way to safeguard them. Locked items will be denoted by reduced opacity for the item container.

Favorite

This toggle favorites all instances of the item in your Hoard. While this toggle doesn't prevent using or selling the item, it can provide you an extra way of classifying items that you like or that are important to you. Favorite items are denoted by a yellow star in the top right corner of the item container.

The location of the lock toggle on the item interaction window, as well as evidence that selling the item has been restricted due to the toggle's state.

A selection of items in the Hoard, some having been locked or favorited by the player.

Both toggles also have accompanying Quick Filter buttons in the top right corner of the Hoard that, when activated, will show you only items that have been toggled into that state.

The locked items Quick Filter is enabled, showing only those food items that have been set to a locked state.

Additional Hoard Options

In addition to everything listed above, we've launched the feature with a few expanded options that you can enable by clicking or tapping the gear icon in the top corner of the page.


Virtual Stacks

Like to keep a tidy Hoard? It is now possible to collapse identical items down into what we're calling "virtual stacks".

Even cooler, this option affects items that don't typically stack above one (1), like familiars and apparel. We hope it's useful for people who like to keep their inventory concise and orderly.

A selection of familiar items; some that have duplicates have been collapsed into "virtual stacks".

Useful Items for Other Features

This next one is one we're particularly excited about. Once this option is enabled, items that have multiple important uses in other site features have their usage case(s) denoted at the bottom of the item container in the form of colorized bars and icons. Mousing over those bars will tell you what the item is useful for.

A screenshot depicting the multiple uses for the item Sizzling Phosphorous. The colored bars and icons indicate it is useful in Baldwin's Bubbling Brew and for a Hibernal Den task.

Items Per Page

When we first developed Flight Rising, we designed a lot of our features to work well within a screen resolution that simply isn't that standard anymore. Now that mobile browsers and huge desktop/laptop monitors are commonplace, we wanted to give players more options for showing items per page.

It is now possible to show up to fifty-six (56) items per Hoard/Vault page!

With 56 items shown per page, those that don't vertically fit on the page have been partially obscured by a gradated horizontal bar of item actions. A pair of downward arrows indicate that the player can keep scrolling to see more items.

Self Service: Item Restoration

The launch of this feature revamp also includes a brand new option in our Self-Service support menu. If you make a mistake in hoard-selling an item or multiple items, it is possible to buy them back (for a markup) using this option.

Thanks to everyone who provided feedback over the years about the Hoard and Vault through our Suggestions Forum, as well as those who interfaced with us between the Dev Update and now. Almost all of the major improvements to these systems were a result of your voices.

We're excited to finally launch another major feature in our sitewide refactor, which is now getting pretty close to completion. It's been a long, challenging journey, but along the way, Flight Rising has gotten better for it, and we appreciate you hanging out with us while we make that trip!
