Hey all!

A big update just went live, adding a ton of small stuff, but also new page types for Technologies, Governments, Planets, and Deities.

You can read all about it at the blog post that I just posted. There's also some notes at the end on what's next, but in short, the two big things next on my plate are:

  • Reworking custom attributes and fields to make them easier to use. This includes editing, reordering, adding to existing categories, being able to remove the default fields you don't want to use, and more.

  • Design and usability improvements, e.g. on the forums and when navigating around the main site. We're running into the limits of our current design framework which has prevented me from implementing some much-wanted features (for example, dragging and dropping items in your lists of scenes/etc to reorder them) that I'll be tackling with piecemeal design improvements.

Happy worldbuilding, everyone!

P.S. I'll also soon be toying with some new strategies for enabling a few more page types for non-premium users also, so stay tuned for that news also.

I'm getting perineum tonight dear god knows I need those pages

@FantaPop

Thanks for all your hard work andrew (Our Supreme Lord and Overseer)! It's amazing to see how far this site's come in just the little amount of time I've been using it, and definitely worth supporting. (Deities is a page type I desperately needed, but didn't know.) Thanks again!

@bootslots

Thanks so much for all your hard work! But, a quick suggestion. On the family page for deities, it would be really useful for there to be a 'siblings' as well. Again, thanks so much for all the work you've done so far!

@Urby

Thank you for all these new toys! The budding sci-fi builder in me is very very pleased.

Looking forward to the custom fields rework!

Done. :)

Very happy to everyone else is enjoying the new page types already also!

@Urby

One more request! Being able to link Races to Deities as well (if not under Symbolism, maybe Rituals? Just in case a deity is associated with a particular race, not just humanity)

Good call. Just added that too (under Rituals). Gonna go work a bit on a world of my own now and then get some sleep though. Enjoy! :)

Could you also add allies and enemies under the Deity page? And thanks for all the work you put in.

@Chronicle Beta Tester

As a person who loves creating governments, this is going to be the coolest thing to play around with. Thank you!

@kai Sure thing – I'll try to get those added tomorrow! :)

@Chronicle You might enjoy the new Governments forum, also. :)

@Byakuren Houjuu Beta Tester

Would it be possible to make it, so we can link deities to religions on the religions page? So far we can only link religions to deities on their deity page or Characters as deities on the religion page.
