Finally a client update! 🙂 You can give your spacebar a break now. If you hold it down for short time you can then let go and it will continue swinging forever until you move or tap space again. You can even chat while it’s toggled. A new ‘Action’ button has been added to the client which works the same way. A long overdue ‘Pickup’ button has also been added. The ‘Use’ and ‘Drop’ buttons have increased in size to make it easier for mobile users especially. See below for more:

• Towers are now loaded with arrows instead of taking them from the ground.
• Towers can now fire over walls at targets who have recently inflicted damage (including on structures). Otherwise they require line of sight as usual.
• Repair kits wont work on a structure if it has recently taken damage.
• Newly placed structures are weakened for 10 seconds so they will take extra damage from attackers (10% max hp per swing).
• Gold cost reduced for towers, trading counters, and a couple accessories.
• Hammer bonus on new warrior signets has been changed to clubbing.
• You now only get berries and appearance potions for your first character. The potions are now craftable.
• Locks can’t go over counters anymore, but you can use them to protect your stock and the counter will ignore the lock and work normally.
• If you send a whisper that fails for some reason (they are went to sleep for example) it will still display your tell so that you can copy it for later if needed.
• Fixed a bug with the phone client where the page would get stuck loading.
• Fixed a bug with internet explorer where the chat would stretch the whole game.

I will be experimenting with further client changes soon. See you next week for more patch fun 🙂
