Guild Activity

Guild activity is now tracked. The following actions are currently tracked: new members, challenge contributions, a member being kicked from the guild, a member leaving, raid participations.

This should make it much easier for guild leaders to track whether members are contributing to the guild or not.

A characters guild activity is held for a maximum of 14 days.

Tutorial

A very simple tutorial is now shown to all new users. The user is guided through various parts of the game by the NPC Leilatha.

Push Notifications

Push notifications for our mobile apps will be phased out over the next 7 days. Please watch for updates in your app store.

If you have already enabled push notifications prior to this update (via the Web App for example), you must navigate to the settings page for the app to recognise that you have push notifications enabled. You do not need to do anything else. Simply navigating to the settings page is enough.

You can test the push notifications yourself by performing one fishing action, or crafting one single item.

Troubleshooting

• If you are not receiving notifications, please use the "Resync" button that is available on the settings page.
• Please make sure your app has the following version code (or higher). You can check the version code in your phone settings.
  • v1.0.0.6 (Android)
  • v1.0.6 (iOS)

Badges

• Players can earn special badges by completing specific achievements within the game.
• There is a badge for every skill when a character reaches level 100.
• Account-wide badges are also distributed to closed beta testers and those with membership.
• More badges will come soon once we track more in-game metrics.
• Badges can be equipped on the characters profile (1 badge for free users. 3 badges for members).

Fixes/Changes

• Performance improvements.
• Fixed the game crashing when the exhaustion effect kicks in for a very small number of users.
• Added guild challenge tasks for those that are in a guild.
• Fixed bug that disabled the ability to scroll on some item listings.
• Fixed the ability to add to an existing market listing when a characters has reached its listing limit.

• Preparation for push notifications on iOS and Android.

Version 0.16.0-PB - 3rd June 2024

Push Notifications

We are currently testing push notifications. You can receive notifications when your skill has finished and when the shrine has been activated.

To get started, visit the Web App on your browser (https://web.idle-mmo.com), go to "Settings", scroll down to "Push Notifications", and enable the relevant settings.

This is currently experimental. If you are not receiving any notifications, please use the "resync" button that is available on the settings page. Push notifications also cannot be enabled on iOS devices.

More notification types + native notifications for the mobile apps will soon follow.

• Fixed Android pricing for tokens. You may notice some token packs have had a significant reduction to the price (country dependent).
• Players using Android App can now buy multiple tokens or membership packs in one transaction.

We are thrilled by the surge in player activity following the release of the IdleMMO Android app. Thank you so much for your support!

Due to this surge in activity, our priority right now stabilizing the game. We've made it clear from the onset that our number one main priority is to build an incredibly stable, polished, and robust game as it will significantly help us in the future when we add more features or expand upon existing ones.

Right now, we are focusing our efforts on fixing issues and improving performance. This will ensure the game can continue to scale as needed without worrying about the server slowing down.

Highly anticipated features, such as direct trading, push notifications, a public API, and others are still in the works but they may just take slightly longer to arrive (though, hopefully not too much). We thank everyone for their patience in this.

If you haven't seen already, we have already outlined a plan on what is to come on our public road map which can be seen here: https://trello.com/b/CxIn7i5B/idlemmo-public-roadmap
