Changelog 2.123


Dear Community,

On Wednesday, October 19th, Grepolis will be updated to version 2.123. As always there will be a short downtime while the update is applied.

Summary


With this update, we provide you with the opportunity to keep track of donations made to the World Wonders of your alliance. Additionally, we implemented a change that should prevent alliances from inviting outsiders simply for donations during the age of World Wonders. On top of that, we of course also fixed some bugs.

New Features and Changes

  • An overview of all members' donations towards an alliance's World Wonder has been added.
    • When clicking on the respective World Wonder, you now have the opportunity to find a list of all alliance members' donations towards this Wonder.
    • This view is currently only available for founders and leaders, but we already plan to include this feature in the rights' management of the alliance.
  • There now is a 72-hour donation cooldown for new alliance members. This is to prevent alliances from inviting players solely to accumulate more donations and favor for their World Wonders.
    • Due to the way the feature is built, there may be some exceptional behaviour for worlds on which the age of world wonders has already started:

      - The donation screen will only show donations that have been done after the activation of the feature as the game can only start collecting the data from that point onward.
      - Due to the way the feature is built currently, the list of world wonders in the dropdown menu of the overview may not show all wonders. This is due to the fact that only world wonders with donation entries made after feature implementation are listed. Finished world wonders hence are not listed at all.

      For worlds on which the age of world wonders has not started yet, everything should work as expected as soon as the construction of the first world wonder starts.

Bugfixes

  • Island view - There should be no more farming villages overlapping with potential spots for founding a new city.
  • Color assignments - The title of the color picker window was sometimes not displayed properly.
  • Fall event - An issue was fixed that prevented incantations to be displayed properly when certain combinations of ingredients were selected.
  • Reports - The tooltip for stone hail as displayed in reports will now appear in proper Grepolis style.
  • Alliance - Applications and invitations window is now reloaded properly when accepting an alliance invitation.

As always we hope you enjoy the update and would love to hear any feedback you might have here.

Best regards,
Your Grepolis Team

Note: The donation overview contains a search field which enables you to jump to a certain member and ranks members according to how much they contributed has been removed from the change log and will be included in a future update.

smh you'll should be scrapping ww and making a better alternative, not trying to fix the existing broken system.

As res can still be sent to players in the main alliance, and players in main alliance can favor farm their allies, this doesn't stop alliances forming super groups and sharing the crown. It just means alliances will use buddy systems for res/favor instead of alliance hopping. Having been on WW islands and unable to jump while in coalition before, I've done the buddy system for donating res/favor. It works really well so I know that this won't stop the issue of coalitions spoiling competition, it will just change the way they operate to another system. Which in some ways is better than the existing alliance hopping method as there is no need for people to be around with auths to issue invites. So this solves nothing.

However even if we pretend that players can't share res/fav and this would actually stop coalitions (even tho we all know it won't) it's still pointless. WW goes against the principles of Grepolis as people stop fighting and start farming... yawn

Please stop wasting time trying to make WW tolerable, just scrap them and give us a good way to end the game that involves fighting and competition, not farming and hand holding

Thanks for trying inno but no cookie for you until you find a way to to end the world that isn't a total snoozefest.

You should only implement major changes like this on new worlds not worlds that have been playing a while under the older rules from their start.
