This is the official version log for The West International version. Please note that The West was first available in English from version 1.09, so some previous updates are missing. Please add these to the list if you find the correct change log for a version.

Some of the notable changes will be: There will be female working process pictures (for the top right of the screen). The town logs now stay for 7 days.

The server time will be visible in the browser window title. Player's will be able to scroll to their current work in one click, as well as other minor changes. Motivation will influence the chance of getting an item.

  • Misc bug fixes
  • Ability to switch over from report to report

Version 1.20

16-07-2009

After the update it will be possible to construct forts and take part in fort battles.

Forts: Every sector now has three spots to build forts. They can be built by a town's councilors. Several buildings can be constructed in the fort, each of them giving different advantages. Constructing buildings in a fort requires products, like wood, iron and stone.

Fort battles: It is possible to try and take over the fort of another town in a big fort battle. Such a battle can be declared by a town's councilor. The fight begins 24 hours later, and the town's members should go to the fort in time to help attacking or defending the fort. The defenders have to hold the fort for 100 battle rounds, or defeat the attackers. The attackers have to take over the fort's flag that is located right in the middle of the fort and have to hold it for 10 rounds, or they have to defeat all defenders. If the attackers win, the attacking town takes over the fort.

There are still a few things that do not work as intended but are being worked on: So far no experience points are gained in fort battles and no items are found Constructing towers, gates and walls has no effect yet The store cannot be constructed yet

You can find more info about forts in the help.

Guns: A new weapon class is now available. Guns can be bought at the gunsmith and will be added to the already constructed gunsmiths. During fort battles only guns are used, dueling weapons have no effect. If you don't have a gun while taking part in a battle, you will use rocks that are lying on the ground. Dueling weapons are exclusively used in duels, guns just in fort battles. The easy way to differentiate between the two is: Guns are equipped in the slot to the right of the clothing slot, dueling weapons are equipped in the slot to the left.

Other changes: The background and the towns can be hidden on the mini map The ranking is now not sorted by name anymore, but by the date the town was finished. Shortly there will be another change that will take fort points into consideration The job "Constructing a fort" has been changed to "Constructing a manor house" to prevent confusion. The job's settings were not changed The travel speed is now shown in mph. With that we make it clearer to show if a percent bonus is relative or absolute New screen-shots have been created for the front page Health points, experience points and energy are now also displayed with numbers Dollar amounts are not shown in the Saloon anymore so that spies are less valuable

The forts are a very new feature. They are very complex and are still being tweaked. Please understand that over time we will have to change calculations and settings to create a good game balance.
