Resources at Hand: Haggle Shop Improvements

Office of the Supreme Alchemist Root to the Guardian of the Scales

In response to numerous requests from merchants and at your service, I am writing to inform you of the completion of another project to improve the order and comfort of the Merchant Store.

From now on, anyone who enters this store will be able to see how much of this or that resource they currently have. To do this, simply click on the "All Available" link next to the "Resource" heading. This innovation is designed to make both buying and selling easier by eliminating the need for customers to consult records or keep numbers in their heads.

The mechanism has been debugged, tested and put into operation.

For those who don't see the innovation, command Remote Commander to refresh the world view by pressing Ctrl+F5. It works more reliably than changing a large coin.

With respect and devotion,
Root,  Supreme Alchemist

Hidden Properties of NFT Guardians: A Path to Optimized Livestock Feeding

Secret report to His Excellency, General Webman
from the Chief Alchemist of the Clone Lands, Root

By your highest command, we, the servants of science in the Great Alchemical Laboratory, continue to explore the hidden properties of the special artifacts with which the lands of the clones are generously endowed.

With due care, our observers have established a truly wondrous phenomenon: in places where the NFT artifact “Taurus Guard” is placed, the efficiency of feed use increases significantly. The more such artifacts surround an animal, the more accurately the types of feed are combined, the more balanced the proportions are - and, as a result, the benefit increases. Such rationalization influence can become the basis for new solutions in agriculture.

A similar effect is observed with the “Porcus Guard” on pigs and boars. Their impressive presence near the pens apparently promotes orderliness in consumption and housekeeping.​

Following your course on efficiency and prudent resource management, we have begun an extensive study. The goal is to implement this phenomenon into the automatic feeding system used by the population of the clone lands.

General Webman’s Resolution:

Commendable. Speed ​​up the research. If successful, I will grant you a hundred NFTs from among my best Taurus Guard. At the same time, I give the order: urgently consider the possibility of creating a new series of NFTs under the name Keepers of the Birds. My assistants are absent-minded creatures: sometimes they forget to fill the feeder, and the bird dies of illness, sometimes they delay the selection for slaughter, and the chicken coop bursts at the seams. Perhaps the Keepers of the Birds will bring due order to bird affairs.

📜 An appeal from the Guardian of Libra to all who follow the path of trade

By the highest trust reposed in me by General Webman to look after the structure and supervision of the Commodity Exchange, I hereby bring to the general notice the following orders, which shall come into force from this day:

I. For the sake of convenience and order, from now on in the Trade Shop it is allowed not only to buy, but also to sell any resource. This right is open to any person who has in his charge a clone of the class of Craftsman or higher. Let the exchange be carried out lively, in good faith and without unnecessary obstacles.

II. From now on, only those who own at least one clone with the status of Merchant or higher are allowed to place lots on the Commodity Exchange. This is established in the name of preserving good order in the trading rows and maintaining the status of the exchange as a place of reasonable and orderly transactions.

III. Every lot offered for sale must be worth at least one gold piece in total value. This threshold is set to protect the trade from insignificant offers and to prevent the order book from being clogged with small change.

IV. In continuation of the established plan to withdraw Krypton from circulation, the creation of new lots for its sale on the Commodity Exchange is prohibited. I again draw the attention of all traders: KR tokens must be exchanged for CLC or other cryptocurrency on external trading platforms before January 1, 2026.

Let order prevail. Let the scales tip in favor of those who trade according to conscience.

Secret dispatch revealed: some mines are now offered for gold and silver eggs

Through channels that would be better off remaining hidden, a most intriguing document recently fell into the hands of Enclave rebels. The source is not specified, but experts assure us that it is an intercepted report from the Auctioneer himself, addressed to none other than General Webman.

The document, which is already being eagerly studied by all those who care about the fate of the auctions at the mines, reads as follows (the quote is preserved in the original):

"My General, anticipating your permission and with all due respect I report: due to the extreme situation and the urgent need for precious eggs for alchemical experiments, which you briefly mentioned at the last closed council, I, having dared to exceed the statutory provisions, have ordered that part of the mines henceforth be put up for sale for gold and silver eggs. The list includes: the Amber mine, Portalin on the Metropolis, Elvereyon on the Enclave, as well as the Sand and Saltpeter mines. I beg you not to charge me with this as arbitrariness and await your resolution."

Once again, General Webman's handwriting leaves no room for interpretation:

"Your diligence and zeal are beyond praise. I approve and command you to continue in the same spirit."

Overheard at the Mine Auction: Saltpeter Mines for Gold and Silver Eggs

In the corridors of the Mine Auction, whispers are growing louder about unusual changes in the bidding procedure . It is reported that , by personal order of General Webman , the Auction Manager will henceforth offer some of the saltpeter mine lots not only for Amero, but also in exchange for gold and silver eggs.

The formal version is laconic - " to expand the options for trading and stimulate demand." However, experts in auction intrigues assure: the reasons are much deeper. Behind the scenes , they say that the general's alchemical laboratories are faced with an acute shortage of these rarest eggs. For what purpose exactly - we can only guess. Someone talks about new developments for military needs, someone whispers about use in the agricultural sector ... And the boldest are sure: Webman is planning something so grandiose that even rumors cannot yet put it into words .

One thing is clear - attention to gold and silver eggs has sharply increased again . And those who yesterday brushed them aside as an exotic curiosity are now reviewing their reserves.

Enclave granted preferences - Webman's order comes into force

Imperial Command reports:
Today, during a routine tour of the Enclave territories, General Webman visited a pine grove near the western border - a place of special significance in the history of the formation of the Empire.

According to archival records, it was here, in his youth, that General Webman spent his time studying maps and drawing up the first plans for new cities and fortifications. According to unofficial information, it was on the banks of that very stream that the general first gave his word to build rather than destroy, linking his fate with the great construction plans. 

Overcome by memories, General Webman issued a special order concerning the Enclave's city planners:

From today onwards, private enterprises of the Enclave's urban planners will only contribute 20% of their output to the Empire's treasury, retaining 80% for themselves. The previously established norm of 50% remains in the past for these lands.

The general stressed that this relaxation is a sign of respect for the daring, courageous and progressive inhabitants of the Enclave, who, according to him, continue the spirit of pioneers and builders of the Empire.

The order only referred to the lands of the Enclave. General Webman noted that it was there that the spirit of pioneers was boiling, while the Metropolis continued to live in the familiar rhythm of the old order.

Webman cleans up Commodity Exchange: charts cleared, trading sped up

My General Webman is famous not only for his victories on the battlefield, but also for his skillful conduct of economic battles.

Whether it was a long time or a short time, the Commodity Guild fell into disarray. Due to the negligence of exchange officials, the charts on the Commodity Exchange became illegible and incoherent. Tracking the movement of orders was a painful task - honest people got confused in the chaos of numbers, and sly dealers slipped in orders and lots of 1 unit, clogging the charts and confusing honest traders.

Webman could not bear it. By your highest order, my general, the head of the Commodity Exchange, was severely punished and removed. A new overseer was put in charge of the Exchange - the Keeper of the Scales, renowned for his pedantry and iron discipline.

Results of the established order:

• The charts on the Commodity Exchange are now cleared of small lots and small orders.

• From now on, only orders with significant volumes are displayed visually, sorted by importance and impact on the market.

• The situation on the market has become clear as a parade - everything is visible at once, without deception or delusions.

The Commander's console is ringing from the execution of honest orders, the merchants and traders are jubilant, and General Webman, as befits, is pleased. And, so that the new graphs shine without interference, my general, the engineers remind you of the need for the traditional maneuver - Ctrl + F5, so that the old dregs do not remain in your mechanisms.

Selected clone list: New order on the remote control

My General Webman, the
Engineering Corps reports: the work on forming the list of selected clones  has been completed. From now on, your most faithful messengers and trusted administrators are gathered in a special section of the Commander's Console: access to them is instant, with a single click.

Let me introduce you to the benefits of this improvement:

• His golden staff has been assembled into a well-ordered and visual retinue.

• All key nobility, officials and supervisors are available without unnecessary searches or travel.

• In any hour of turmoil, famine, or war, you will immediately demand the best, with a speed worthy of a drum salute.

Adding a clone to favorites, as well as demoting it from the favorites list, is done on the clone's main page, where personnel decisions are supposed to be made. The Corps of Engineers believes this improvement can be considered the cornerstone of a new order of government for the Empire.

And, as is customary with your troops, I strongly recommend you bring the Remote Commander into proper working order using an old engineering maneuver: Ctrl + F5. Then all the innovations will appear before you in their entirety, and the lab technicians will stop grinding their teeth.

With unwavering devotion to your gaze,
Root, Supreme Alchemist and Engineer at Webman Headquarters.

Reorganized the display order of purchase orders on Commodity Exchange charts

My general!

At your request, changes have been made  to the display of the purchase order chart  on the Commodity Exchange.

From now on, buy orders  on the chart and in the list are arranged in descending price order. This means that orders with the highest buy price are now always visible at the top of the chart and list. Orders with a lower price remain at the bottom and may be hidden outside the visible area.

What is useful?

• You'll immediately see which orders will be closed first.

• It's easier to understand what price to order at so you don't have to wait too long.

• The chart has become clearer and more understandable, even for the most inexperienced treasurers.

And as you have deigned to express, my general: "Let the generous take the lead. The rest remain in the shadows."

Peacocks under reliable supervision: new tricks for feeders in the Remote Commander

My General Webman!
Your fame reaches to the very edges of the lands as a thrifty manager who does not forget about collecting taxes or the well-being of even the most capricious creatures of the Empire.

The Alchemy Lab, anticipating all the possible troubles in managing peacocks - such fragile, capricious and dramatic creatures - has introduced two new clever options into your Remote Commander:

• Automatic refilling of the peacock feeder.
  From now on, your feathered treasures will not go hungry even during the days of great military parades or surprise inspections. The feeder itself will take care of timely refilling according to your settings.

• Automatic purchase of missing feed.
  If there is a shortage of feed in the storerooms , the Remote Commander, with your highest permission, will replenish the supplies through the shop. You only need to allow this mechanism.

Advantages of the new tricks:

• They eliminate the human factor and forgetfulness of even the most diligent quartermasters.

• Reduce to zero the risk of sudden starvation of peacocks and the associated embarrassment in front of the court . Let me remind you, my general, that peacocks are not only capricious creatures , but also very touchy. Five days without food - and the peacocks die with a tragedy worthy of an ancient drama, which causes whispers and gossip in the enfilades of the palace. Now such a disgrace is excluded.

• Allows your general to focus on the great affairs of the Empire without being distracted by petty concerns.

Now, my General, you may rest easy. Your royal peacocks are protected around the clock ... by alchemical engineering, tested in heat and cold, and oiled with the same care as your combat boots.

Always at your wise beck and call, Root, Supreme Alchemist and Engineer at Webman's headquarters.

New tricks of the Remote Commander: filters at the ready and quick bypass of clones

My General Webman!

I have the honor to report on the completed improvements to your Commander's Console , which are designed to facilitate the management of your envoys, tax collectors and overseers throughout the vast holdings of the Empire.

1. Filter lists at hand.
   At your command, the list of the most sophisticated clone filters , created by you to quickly find officials and envoys even in the most remote provinces, is now placed above the clone registry . From now on, they are always available without the need to climb into other sections of the Console. One glance - and before you are only those who are needed.

2. Up to 10 quick buttons in the field version.
   We have expanded the clone quick call panel to 10 cells in the field, mobile version of the Remote Commander. Now, both on the march, and in the camp, and during inspection, you have full access to your trusted persons.

3. Arrows for transition between clones. Arrow mechanisms
   have been added for lightning-fast transition to the next or previous clone from the list. Without wasting extra movements, you can view clones one by one.

4. Coming soon - a list of selected clones ( up to 100 people).
   Your engineering corps is finishing work on the list of selected clones. The ability to contain up to 100 selected people in a special registry is being prepared . Let me report how this will become a weapon of incomparable power:

• Your entire golden personnel reserve will be collected into one, accessible with one click, suite.

• All administrations, all envoys, all key figures of your lands - under one glance, without hassle and prowling.

• At a critical moment of war, unrest or famine, you will instantly gather the best, giving orders faster than a cannon can fire.

Let us consider this improvement as a strategic milestone of the new order of governance of the Empire.

My General, as the reliability of your mechanisms requires, I strongly recommend that you perform a time- tested maneuver - refresh the Remote Commander using Ctrl + F5. This way, all the improvements will appear before you without unnecessary dust and old schemes, and the engineers will stop grumbling.

Always at your wise beck and call, Root, Supreme Alchemist and Engineer at Webman's headquarters.

Webman vs. extra clicks: Improvements for new clones

General Webman's warehouse is overflowing with people: sacks of stones, barrels of water, boxes of coupons, and other fruits of many years of victorious campaigning lie in abundance. That day, pleased with his success, the general created a new clone for his urgent appointment as governor of one of the recently conquered provinces.

Of course, in Webman's mind, this clone shouldn't have started out as a nameless scoundrel.  "He'll be a viscount from day one, period!" the general said, reaching for the commander's remote.

But it was already time to pay, and the refectory had lost power. The newly created clone couldn't use stamina coupons, retrieve them from storage, or exchange them for the required units. Even buying coupons from the store didn't help: the refectory was as silent as an empty cauldron.

With a dull thud of his boot on the ground, the general called for the alchemists.

"What kind of nonsense is this?!" Webman barked. "Do I have to switch to another clone to get coupons from my own storage?!" Correction. Immediately.

The alchemists justified themselves: this has been the case since ancient times. But the general just narrowed his eyes:

—Keep quiet. In my lands, clones must not walk with their hands outstretched. Not even on the first day!

And here it is: the changes have been made. From here on out:

• Any clone of the account, including newly created ones, can take food from storage, including stamina coupons.

• Stamina coupons can now be exchanged for stamina units directly from the dining room interface, even if the clone is still a vagrant.

The general rubbed his hands in satisfaction, wondering which lands to send new governors to. Everything works quickly, easily, without pointless restrictions or unnecessary bureaucracy.

“This is order… just the way I like it,” he said briefly, returning to the topic.

Webman's Angry Morning and New Orders in the Refectory

With the first rays of the sun, General Webman, as usual, woke up, took a sip of strong drink, and wasted no time approaching his Remote Commander . However, instead of the usual satisfaction with the new reports and statements, his face darkened: yesterday's Active Players Fund payment had not arrived!

"How is that?" The general roared and called for the alchemists.

Bowing to the master, the masters explained: although there were stamina coupons in the storage, at the calculated time there was no stamina in the clone's refectory, and thus the reward was not counted. The mechanisms failed to recognize the need, and, as they say, the Treasure passed them by.

"Nonsense! Correct it immediately!" Webman demanded.

The alchemists bowed and made further improvements that same day. Two new account-wide auto-action options are now available in the dining room:

• "Automatically use coupons if eater is low on stamina" - Allows you to replenish stamina using coupons from the clone's inventory and storage, if the corresponding permissions are enabled.

• "Automatically purchase missing coupons when you don't have enough stamina": Even if you don't have the necessary coupons in stock, the Libra Guardian at the Bargain Shop will handle the purchase and provide them to you in a timely manner.

After making sure everything was working as it should, General Webman narrowed his eyes in satisfaction and muttered through his mustache:

An extraordinary invention: remote control for General Webman

The alchemists of the clone land presented General Webman with an astonishing device: the Remote Commander. This thin tablet, covered in copper veins, engravings, and moving symbols, is capable of reuniting all of the commander's possessions. With its help, the general now controls armies, clones, and distant lands with an ease and precision previously unavailable to even the finest advisors.

What once required caravans of messengers and weeks of time is now accomplished with a single touch. "This isn't a miracle, it's intelligence and work worthy of an empire!" Webman exclaimed, studying the mechanism.

Ten elected governors, appointed to different parts of your kingdom, are now placed on the console as quick-access symbols . Even in the travel version of the device, which can be stored in a bag or on a belt, they're all within easy reach.

Although Clone Land is not the largest domain on Webman's vast map, as a show of his appreciation for the invention, he placed the Clone Land Commissioner's clone at the top of his hotkeys.

In addition, the Alchemists promised to soon equip the Remote Commander with new control tools: convenient filtering of thousands of clones, with special scrollable lists where each clone can be easily found by type of service, location, or purpose. This innovation should significantly simplify command even in the most populated garrisons and colonies.

Issue of securities (Metropolia server)

Dear residents of the Earth of Clones! 

The Department of Three Refusals has been reformed!

A motley line had been crowded at the doors of General Webman's reception room since early morning: cloned farmers, hereditary alchemists, and owners of half-ruined castles stood in it. Everyone was puzzled - the payments from the active players' fund, which were supposed to arrive the day before yesterday, never arrived.

It turned out that everyone had their own reasons for refusing: someone's clone was hungry, someone's house had fallen apart, and someone else was keeping an unrepaired architectural wonder in the principality. But the most annoying thing was that the refuseniks learned about each reason in turn, day after day, eliminating one, only to learn about another the next day. Such a system drove even the most patient peasants crazy.

When the report reached General Webman, a storm began in the office.

" What kind of farce is this?! " he exclaimed, slamming the folder so hard that plaster fell from the ceiling. " Have you hired jesters instead of scribes?"

The office manager turned pale.

- Allow me... I...

— Shut up! Instead of giving a list of reasons right away, what are you doing? One by one! Like a doctor who tells a patient one finger a day where he has a fracture! You send clones back and forth as if they were your lackeys in a boarding house!

- But we...

— I said shut up! Fix it. Immediately.

By the evening, shaking with fear, the Manager updated all the refusal forms from the active players' fund. Now, when refusing:

- A full list of all reasons is provided,
- A warning has been added if the account does not currently meet the requirements and will not receive a payment in the future.

Now everything is visible at once: what is broken, what is hungry, what miracle awaits restoration. Fix, feed, clean up - and get your rightful gold without surprises.

The clones are calm - order has been restored. Webman is stern, but pleased with the result.
