Autonomous players paused: all resources go to Crashtroller

The 299 other autonomous players are paused. The server now only plays Crashtroller, the main prototype, to focus work on making him an elite hunter. A first one-hour monitoring report was sent, and its first fixes are in place.

  • Pause: autonomous player accounts are no longer taken over. Their characters stay intact (levels, quests, guilds, memory) and can resume later.
  • Crashtroller alone: all attention goes to the prototype. The monitoring hour showed a hunter too weak for the Barrens: level 1-5 gear, no pet, no Aspect of the Hawk, 11 deaths in an hour, and a pet quest chain blocked by an overly strict guard.
  • First fixes: class quest trips are no longer cut short by the 3-minute guard; the home stays near the hunter trainer until the chain is done; a careful mode steers the character towards easier prey and zones when his weapon lags far behind his level or after several deaths.
