On Wednesday, February 25th Grepolis will be updated to version 2.81. As always there will be a short downtime while the update is applied.
Please also be aware we will be switching all our game services to SSL and that it will have an impact on existing user scripts supplied by the community. If Grepolis is running inside an SSL context (https://)it will no longer be possible to load insecure content (http://). Every script that loads external resources, images, scripts or iframes, will fail to do so. Script developers have to supply it as secure content. We will start with a grace period where Grepolis is available through SSL on demand. After some time we will switch to a forced SSL solution. The current schedule is to start with the SSL grace period end of March, which gives enough time to script developers to accommodate with the change.
We hope you enjoy the update and if you have any feedback we'd love to hear it in this thread.
Best regards,
Your Grepolis Team
Version 2.81
On Wednesday, February 25th Grepolis will be updated to version 2.81. As always there will be a short downtime while the update is applied.
Summary
Besides a lot of technical preparations around the SSL switch mainly (see the Miscellaneous section for more information), Grepolis is getting a new fresh look: the advisors, some of the oldest characters in the Grepolis history, have been visually redesigned! After showing off on the App, they are now coming to the browser as well to keep offering you the best of their services.
New features
- Revamped the visual look of the advisors: advisors now have the same look than in the Grepolis App. They are more modern and more appealing. Their benefits remain unchanged.
Improvements
- Adjusted the text showed in the interstitial and tooltip of the market on worlds where gold trading is enabled. The text now provides information about the embargo feature which prevents players from putting gold acquired via certain payment methods on the market for a certain period of time;
- Disabled the ability to login on both the Grepolis Toolbox and Grepolis App/Browser as it could generate issues on the user side.
Bugfixes
- The warning message showed when the description of a new plan in the attack planner is too long was not displayed correctly;
- It was not possible to use the "Enter" key in the ranking in order to search;
- The apostrophe character was not allowed to be used in town names for some languages;
- Input fields were showed on the recruitment overview for towns where the recruitment queue is already full;
- In some cases, the circular menu was not closed when opening a new window;
- The attack indicator was sometimes misleading and showing more incoming attacks than there were;
- Some reward graphics were not aligned with their hover state, resulting in jumping graphics by a few pixels;
- Attack push-notifications were not delivered because they exceed the size limit on iOS;
- The daily collection of mercenaries bar in the Battle of Troy event was 1 pixel a bit too low;
- After renaming a command, the command overview was still displayed the old name;
- The description of the award "Looter of the day" was wrong;
- The renaming option was displayed in the command overview for colonization although it is isn't possible to rename those;
- Some attacks weren't displayed in the app if a city group was selected with the browser version;
- When renaming commands in the command overview, there was no default name;
- After deleting a report, the Inbox tab wasn't selected and the filters weren't displayed
- The effect "Myrmidon Attack" was also affecting naval units.
Miscellaneous
- Removed the ability to publish awards on your Facebook Timeline for now due to new Facebook policies. This feature will be implemented back in the game later this year.
