Diese Karte soll einen Eindruck der Entwicklungsziele und des Fortschritts vermitteln. Unten befindet sich dazu eine konkrete Auflistung der einzelnen Ziele. Noch tiefere Einblicke in die Entwicklung sind im Endyr Changelog und Entwicklerblog auf der Hauptseite zu finden.

Diese Seite wird monatlich aktualisiert. Um den Aufwand überschaubar zu halten sind die Details nur in Englisch verfügbar – sorry!

Abgelehnte Punkte

Liste der Punkte, die entweder stark verändert oder komplett gestrichen wurden (und warum):

Seamless map Instead of moving from level to level players should be able to smoothly walk through the whole world and inside buildings. This idea came up during development but it was too late to be included. It remains a subject for further projects.
World housing Initially players should be able to place their homes anywhere on the map. We found this would limit players too much in terms of available space and on the other hand interfere with the scripting of events. Therefore this system was changed to allow instanced "new lands" that are only accessible through teleporters. Basically every player can now buy as many land pieces as they like and build whole cities there.
