For once, I&#8217;m glad that development is slow (as I didn&#8217;t really miss much).<br \/>\n&#8212;<br \/>\nFirst off, Personal Goals (aka Wurm achievements) will begin a process of being removed and completely replaced with another system. In the next update, &#8216;diamond-level&#8217; goals will be removed. These goals, are quite hard (and annoying) to reach by\u00a0most players (only a small handful have been able to).<br \/>\nThere is no ETA on when the system being replaced will take place (but it likely won&#8217;t happen with this update), only a warning to people who are striving to get the &#8216;Winner&#8217; title (for completing all of them); to do them while you still have a chance.<br \/>\nFor a list of what goals will be removed in the next update, <a href=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/gfdV8ES.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">click here<\/a>.<br \/>\nIf you already have some (or all of these) goals unlocked (prior to them being removed), Retrograde states &#8220;the system will now generate a new achievement of a equal tier.&#8221;<\/p>\n<p>Second, items will be allowed to be placed on things, adding (what I personally feel) a &#8216;VRChat-like&#8217; feel to the game. Its functionality is tied to the recent ability to Place items anywhere the player wants (that can be placed).<br \/>\nA list of what surfaces that items can be placed, can be <a href=\"https:\/\/i.imgur.com\/T92Mr8o.png\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">found here<\/a>.<br \/>\nIn addition, empty options of the non-functional bookcases (named &#8217;empty low shelf&#8217; and &#8217;empty high shelf&#8217;), along with &#8216;bar top&#8217; will be added to the game (in the next update). There is currently no idea what materials (and what skill) would be required to build these.<\/p>\n<p>And third (which <em>isn&#8217;t<\/em> a part of the update), animal crates (the thing that will eventually be the ticket of taking your horse cross-server) will be briefly entering public testing &#8220;over this coming weekend&#8221;, and &#8220;maybe a little next week&#8221;.<br \/>\nThe devs promise a new thread on the animal crates (what they&#8217;ll be asking testers to do), in the Test board. Once I see said thread, I&#8217;ll link it.<br \/>\nTo be a part of this (and all future testing), first <a href=\"https:\/\/forum.wurmonline.com\/index.php?\/topic\/152678-test-server-guide\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">click here<\/a> to learn about the forum&#8217;s &#8216;Test board&#8217;, then <a href=\"http:\/\/www.wurmonline.com\/client\/wurmclient_test.jnlp\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">click here<\/a> to download the Wurm Test Client (if you&#8217;re interested).<br \/>\n&#8212;<br \/>\nAs for the release of the latest update, there is sadly no known date. But they hope to have it ready by Wurm&#8217;s 12th anniversary (whenever that date is).<br \/>\nThe items on tables and stuff, I&#8217;m super hyped for. I&#8217;ll be able to decorate my bedroom proper. And I&#8217;ll likely be getting the test client to try out the animal crates.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>In the latest &#8216;Valrei International&#8217;, the dev&#8217;s newsletter (written by &#8216;Retrograde&#8217;), there is a lot to say here.
