Some schools started summer break last week, some will the coming week.
Lots of working people are going for vacation shortly while some already started their vacation.

We in RetroCores Staff want to wish you a happy summer and that you do things that make you happy and recharge your batteries before the fall!
The past year with Covid and all have been frustrating for us all and it's likely to continue for a while, which is why we'd like to tell you to be careful and consider your plans for the summer and the impact it might have on you and others.

Many will have their vacations at home this summer, but some will travel and if you will too, just be careful.

As for the staff, we're randomly around, we're trying to have some time off and relax to recharge our batteries for the chaotic fall that will go down for us, but other than that the staff is available little here and there.
Me as admin I'm checking status of RetroCores multiple times per day, and do emergency fixes/updates if necessary and randomly does maintenance work with RetroCores (mostly backstage stuffs).
Unlike last summer, I'm not moving this summer and additionally, this time I actually have internet so I can poke around when the weather is disappointing.

Which brings me to content updates,
Summer is a low tide, everyone is shifty and not as active for obvious reasons... the summer.
And content updates enter a state of pause during this period.
This doesn't fully mean no new things can come over summer-period, but rather that the pace of it is a lot slower compared to fall/winter/spring.
As you've seen, we've had a shitload of updates in RetroCores since winter, and more will come.. but slower during summer.

So, use the summer properly, enjoy yourself and relax, recharge those batteries.
Because come fall, you'll need them!

Sincerely,
RetroCores Staff

Today we're happy to present you with adjustable loot statistics source!
 
You have two options where the loot statistics should get looted items from:
1: Only Looted Items
(Only items you move into your inventory from newly killed creatures will be added to loot stats)
2: All Killed Creature Items
(All items from your killed creature or party kills will be added to loot stats, without you having to open the corpse)

Adding all items to loot can be useful under many different situations such as:

• Party hunting, knowing exactly what the party have looted since you began the hunt.
• Loot Bagging, when you often aren't adding items to your inventory but throw them on the ground or similar.
• Curious, when you're more interested in what items monsters dropped than your own profit status.

Additional to this update, we've had many background updates improving everything.
such as improving the systems behind !reportbot that now will higher the chance for catching PVP-Botters


We hope you're enjoying RetroCores and that you plan on sticking around for a very long time!

Sincerely,
RetroCores Staff
