so i was thinking of planning out another realm and thought it'd be cool to have an insight to what functionalities would be added in the upcoming update..

just things like the encounter tools and whatever else you might have added, if the new tools were compatible with WIP realms *in edit mode*, etc.

I figure if i could anticipate what i could and couldn't do I could get a head start on planning and writing out stuff so i can get it ready ASAP. I'm sure this would be helpful for others to and could benefit the game greatly! as opposed to getting the tools then starting work on stuff.

+1 It would be very useful to know what is coming.

Iirc in a reply to Tess (I think), it was said Snapshot were working on improved encounters, but I can't precisely remember what was said or find the post.

For now though, all I'm going to do is maybe a couple of Level 1 or 2 realms. As the difficulty is low I wouldn't value writing an epic and I don't think new players would value it playing it (based on past experience - ahem)

There's not been any information about improved realm creation features yet as far as I know.

I've found the post I was thinking of (19th Nov), so it does sound like it's 'in the works' (it follows TΛPETRVE's which is probably why Tess doesn't remember #MyBad ) >>

The encounters system will indeed be getting an overhaul. More info will follow shortly.

Lots of good discussion and ideas in the that thread, but there's nothing concrete that we can plan for.

Exactly. We know something is coming, but nothing we were asking for in that thread seems to have been confirmed so far.
