A few changes have finally been published to the site! Tutorials for each will be created after we finish with our preparations for the October event, but in the meantime, here's what you can expect:

Navbar update

There is now a "Community" section in the main navigation bar. With its addition, we've moved the link to the gallery out of the "Play" section, and the forums link has been sorted under "Community" as well. You can also find a link to the new trade center under the "Community" section!

Trade Center

Introducing the Trade Center! Your one-stop spot to publish and browse advertisements and find your trade queue. When creating an advertisement, there is an "offering" field where you can list your hoard items, Safirans, or even type something custom. Ads will also include a "seeking" section where you can list hoard items, wishlists, or type out something specific. Advertisements will automatically close after being listed for 30 days, so the trade center remains tidy.

• As a reminder, the trade center is only a method of finding a trade partner. In order to actually transfer items with another user, you must visit your trade queue to initialize a trade.
• With the addition of this feature, we have archived the "Hoard Trades" and the "Safiran Sales and Trades" forums. "Art Exchange" will remain until an upcoming Trade Center update.
• We have also addressed an issue where pets, gear, and weapons were unable to be transferred between users. You can now send pets and claymore to your friends (or, heck, even your enemies!) via your trade queue.

Wishlists

Whether for yourself or to share with other users, you can now create a collection of items you're hoping to acquire via wishlists! Browse through the encyclopedia and shops to add items to your wishlists via the "Add to Wishlist" buttons, or stop by your wishlist page to create custom lists to properly organize all your desires.

Minesweeper

...is still in the works. We need to create both a way to distribute rewards to users, as well as design some asset art to make the game look cohesive with the site. BUT! If you would like to test it out, we may have a demo already available (although there are no rewards for playing the demo, no matter what the tutorial tells you).

• For the demo to work properly, you may need to hard refresh your browser. Depending on your browser, a hard refresh can be done via:
  • (Windows) CTRL + F
  • (Mac) CMD + Shift + R
  • (iOS) Turning on airplane mode, refreshing the page, and then turning airplane mode back off.

Donation shop

Those who have stopped by our Trello may have realized there's one thing missing in this update: the Donation Shop. We're still puzzling over how we would like this feature to work for Safira Island. For now, it has been put onto the backburner until our preparations for the October event are completed.

With so many new features, there may be a few kinks here and there to iron out. As always, if you ever encounter an issue, please submit a bug report.
