v1.6.3 — the troll guards, the stations get dressed

The Trol's True Form can finally take a hit on purpose: it blocks and rolls. And four pieces that borrowed a vanilla look now have one of their own.

True Form blocks and rolls​

  • Right click blocks, the way it does with a shield, and the troll raises its arms into a guard. You stand rooted while guarding: you can turn but not walk. Other players see the guard.
  • Block + Jump rolls, half as far as a normal roll. The troll leaps with its own jump animation, played at double speed so it ends with the roll, instead of sliding.
  • The ground slam moved to middle click (the secondary attack on a gamepad), next to the punch on left click. With a log in hand, the vertical swing moved with it.

See Trol and Key bindings.

New looks​

  • The Race Menu Ward glows blue instead of orange, and its statue is colder, slimmer and stands on a stone plinth. It no longer looks like a vanilla Ward.
  • The Smith's Table is covered in a sheet of shining chainmail, with an anvil and a skeleton skull on it.
  • The Cook's Table has a red and white checked tablecloth where the map was, with a meal and a skull on it.
  • A damaged Smith's or Cook's Table shows rusted mail or a stained cloth.
  • The Dvergar Contract Bank has darker wood and a dvergr tankard beside the coin.

Fix​

The Smith's and Cook's Tables showed $rov_piece_smithtable_name or $rov_piece_cooktable_name in their hover once a servant stood there. They show their names now.

Thanks to lexsonn for the True Form block idea.
