Ultimate Blacksmith Tycoon Update (EA r85) Patch Notes

Crafting FX Overhaul

  • The forge-result presentation has been completely reworked. From Common to Artifact, the effects escalate by rarity: sparks, a central flash, an expanding ring, a card shine sweep, rotating light rays, an edge glow, a screen flash, falling glints, screen shake, and an aura. The top-tier Artifact adds a special screen-edge flash.

  • New forging audio. Hammer taps play first, then the result appears with a rarity-based chime. Higher rarities sound thicker and wider.

  • Rapid crafting (for grinders). Pressing craft again during the hammer taps jumps straight to the next craft, so you can mass-produce at speed.

Fixes & Improvements

  • After some option materials run out during back-to-back crafting, you can now keep crafting without pressing "Clear" first.

  • After healing an injury or reviving an adventurer at the clinic, the dispatch screen's idle-adventurer list now updates HP/status immediately.

  • Improvements to dispatch log history & replay, several windows' value auto-refresh, some missing English text, and tech-tree icon display.
