New Planet Discovered in Entropia Universe


Today we proudly present the new planet ROCKtropia! That means that currently two planetary systems are available to you, consisting of two planets, one asteroid and one space station; ROCKtropia, Planet Calypso, Club NEVERDIE and Crystal Palace.

Entropia Universe is growing and ROCKtropia is set to be the first of many new and different planets that will be forming Entropia Universe. "Diversity is as important in the virtual world as it is in the real world," said MindArk founder and CEO Jan Welter Timkrans. "We are thrilled to see the excitement generated by ROCKtropia and the other planets coming online soon."
For more information about this milestone in the history of Entropia Universe, see http://www.mindark.com/.

Space Travels


Space travel is possible both between and within planetary systems. For example, you can travel directly between Crystal Palace and ROCKtropia or, within a planetary system, between Crystal Palace and Planet Calypso.
To space travel, log in and find a teleporter and select desired destination.

Tip! When traveling through space make sure to pack the items you want to bring in your carried Inventory. Storage facilities are specific for the planet (space station, etc.) you are currently at, meaning that if you store items on one planet and travel to another one, you cannot access those items at your new destination.


NEW FEATURES


Client Loader updates:

• Besides being able to view information specific for different planetary systems, it is also possible to view general Entropia Universe information. To change to general Entropia Universe information click the link in the upper left corner and to change to specific planetary system information click desired link on the Planet Roster tab.
• Just as before, you click Launch in the lower right corner.
• Changing options is done through clicking Tools.

Note! Clicking "Launch" in the Client Loader's lower right corner opens the login screen. At log in you are directed to your avatar's current location in Entropia Universe. Traveling between and withing planetary systems is always performed by your avatar from inside the universe.

NEW FEATURES, IMPROVEMENTS AND FIXED ISSUES

New Features

• Technical preparations for vehicle support.

Miscellaneous

• Added new fragment for enhancer manufacturing.
• The first in a line of upcoming fragments is released – the Nova fragment. Fragments are items with very low recycle ("TT") value which are used in various activities, such as Tiering and Enhancer manufacturing. The addition of the Nova fragment will change existing areas that use fragments. This is done to improve economic balance. Each fragment type has its own rarity level. Blazar fragments are more rare than the more common Nova type. With this update, Blazar fragments are used in the Tier system and the Nova fragments are used in Enhancer manufacturing, thus replacing the Blazar fragment ingredient previously present.
