Development Updates - Aug 10th, 2024

Hello everyone! We're excited to share our latest development update. Our team has been hard at work implementing new features and squashing bugs to improve your experience. Here's a rundown of what we've accomplished:
New Features
- New Avatar Render: We're thrilled to introduce our new avatar renderer! You should notice improved textures and better lighting effects.
- Delete Account Feature: We've added the ability for users to delete their accounts. This feature gives you more control over your data and aligns with our commitment to user privacy.
- Improved Home Page: We've revamped our home page to make it more user-friendly and informative. You'll find it easier to navigate and discover the content you're looking for.
- New Achievement Display: We've optimized how achievements are displayed on your profile. Now, only the highest level of an achievement will be shown. For example, if you've earned both Hoarder I and Hoarder II, only the Hoarder II achievement will be displayed on your profile.
Bug Fixes
We've addressed several bugs that were affecting gameplay and user experience:
- Item Unequipping Issue: Fixed a bug where users couldn't unequip an item after deleting it from their inventory.
- Blank Post Prevention: Resolved an issue where users could create blank posts if the message consisted entirely of non-ASCII characters.
- Rare Item Avatar Glitch: Fixed a bug where sold or traded rare items remained visible on avatars.
- Mobile Off-Sale Timer Display: Fixed the off-sale timer extending beyond the image boundary on mobile devices. (Credit: fxst)
- Off-Sale Timer Refresh: The off-sale timer for items now correctly refreshes the page instead of showing "0 seconds" when the timer runs out.
- Currency Display: Corrected instances where item prices were incorrectly displayed as "1 Credits" or "1 Bits" instead of the singular form.
- Trading Message Bug: Resolved an issue where some players received a "P" error message when sending a trade.
- Discord Boost Integration: Fixed problems where people who boosted the Discord server did not automatically receive their Credits. (Credit: Hennessey)
- Duplicate Friendly Achievement: Fixed an issue where players were granted the Friendly achievement multiple times. (Credit: 7_7)
