April
April 05, 2005 [sv1.0.15.25]
- Fixed a bug that awarded an excessive amount merits and/or item recoveries in any multi-stage battle (i.e. buildings, factories, mints). Now the number of merits received will be increased by the same multiplier used for the gag skill credit.
- For example, merits recovered on the third floor of a building will be multiplied by a factor of two. The result is that in most cases the number of merits gained after the bug fix is comparable to before the fix. Item recovery rates have not been adjusted.
- Furthermore, the increase of necessary merits for promotion will now be more gradual leading up to level 50 cogs. Once you reach level 50 for a cog type you will no longer need to collect merits to fight that cog type's boss, you will earn an executive washroom key which will let you come and go as you please!
- Please note that Merits/Cogbucks reward will be given only when Toons finish the whole Building/Factory/Mint.
- For more information about how the skill credit multiplier works please refer to the Player's Guide.
