Caelumora — v0.74.1: Collection & Combat Polish

Just Another Idle — v0.28: Polish & Fixes Hey all! v0.28 is a polish and quality-of-life release. No new skills or systems this time — just a handful of fixes that were quietly breaking things, a batch of UI improvements from tester feedback, and a proper credits section for the folks who helped shape the game. 🐛 Bug Fixes Achievement count was wrong for three achievements. Jack of All Trades, Well Rounded, and the diamond-tier “all skills” achievement were secretly hardcoded to require only 6 skills — the number the game launched with. Since then we’ve grown to 11 skills and those achievements were silently marking themselves complete when only 6 skills met the threshold. They now correctly require all 11 skills to meet the target level. If you had these unlocked early, they’ll behave properly for new runs going forward. Prestige XP Potions weren’t awarding Skill Tree points. When you used the 500k XP potion from the prestige shop, the skill XP was added but the game forgot to check if you crossed any level-5 thresholds (the ones that grant a Skill Tree point). So if a potion took you from level 3 to level 18, you’d miss out on the points you should have earned at levels 5, 10, and 15. That’s fixed now — potion XP gain properly awards all Skill Tree points for levels crossed. 🎨 UI Improvements Enchanting tabs now match the rest of the game. The Craft and Enchant Equipment tabs in the Enchanting skill were styled in purple — inconsistent with every other tabbed panel in the game, which uses blue. They’re now blue like Smithing, and the layout matches exactly. Task cards with a single objective no longer show two progress bars. Tasks with only one condition were displaying both an “Overall Progress” bar and an individual condition bar, and they always showed the same value. The redundant outer bar is gone — single-condition tasks show one bar, multi-condition tasks still show both. Equipment Familiarity modal no longer scrolls twice. The inner content panel had its own scrollbar inside a modal that already handles scrolling. Now there’s one scrollbar, for the whole modal. Food/stamina panels in Agility and Combat are now collapsible. These panels are typically a one-time setup — you pick your food, set the threshold, and forget about it. They now start collapsed and can be toggled open when needed, freeing up vertical space in those grids. Action lists now scroll independently within their skill panel. When a skill has a long list of actions, you can now scroll through them without scrolling the entire page. The info panels above (current action, next rewards, bonuses) stay pinned at the top while the action cards scroll beneath them. ❤️ Tester Credits Added a Community Testers section to the Credits & Attribution modal (accessible from the Settings menu). A big thank you to the players who’ve been testing and sharing feedback: ErMaK Stangmouse superxoke23 Kiik maxmini0214 Several of the UI improvements in this release came directly from Stangmouse’s feedback. If you want to help shape future updates, join the Discord! What’s Next Looking at Agility content — it’s the thinnest skill in terms of action variety and could use an expansion pass. Also considering gem-related achievements since the gem system has been around for a while with no dedicated progression tracking. Thanks for playing!

Caelumora — v0.74.1: Collection & Combat Polish

This patch focuses on completionist QoL and combat bug fixes — the Collection tab got a major overhaul, several dungeon combat bugs are squashed, and the last missing resource for 100% completion is now craftable.

Collection Overhaul

The Collection tab has been reworked to be much more useful for completionists:

Filter everything — All/Unlocked/Locked filter pills now appear on every Collection tab (Resources, Actions, Equipment, Enemies, Gems, Skills, Achievements). Quickly find what you’re missing.
Click to Wiki — Every item in the Collection is now clickable and opens the in-game Wiki directly to that item’s detail page. No more hunting through the Wiki manually.
New Gems tab — All 13 skill gems now have their own Collection category with a progress bar, matching the other categories.
No more “???” — Undiscovered items now show their real name and icon instead of “???” with blur. You can always see what you’re working toward.
Accurate counts — The Discovered/Total numbers at the top now correctly match the per-category breakdowns. Previously, stale entries from old saves could inflate the count.

Dungeon Combat Fixes

Several combat bugs that slipped through the v0.74.0 release have been fixed:

Mastery XP bonus pipeline — Dungeon mob kills now correctly apply all your bonus sources (equipment, prestige, skill trees, gems, enchantments, discovery passives) to mastery XP. Previously only the raw base × multiplier was awarded.
Boss attack bars — Attack speed bars no longer vanish when fighting dungeon bosses. Boss mobs weren’t recognized by the attack bar component since they’re dungeon-only enemies.
Target switching — Changing your combat target mid-fight now properly resets the encounter. Before this fix, the old enemy’s HP pool persisted.

Mob Tooltip Loot Tables

High-level mob tooltips now show their real tiered loot table instead of stale placeholder drops. You’ll see drops organized by rarity (common, uncommon, rare, very rare) with actual amounts — including things like Primordial Shard that were previously invisible.

Prismatic Shard & Jewelry Fixes

Craft Prismatic Shard — New Jewelry action at level 90 (costs 3 faceted gems + 2 refined gem dust + 1 gold wire). This was the last unobtainable resource blocking 100% completion.
Ring IDs fixed — Copper Ring, Silver Ring, and Gold Ring from Jewelry now correctly produce the Jewelry-specific variants and appear properly in the Collection and Wiki.
Sell prices — All Jewelry ring and necklace outputs now have sell prices.

Other Fixes

Hard Mode label now accurately says “permanently enraged (+50% HP & stats)” instead of the vague “enrage over time”
Construction and Jewelry now appear in the Instant Mastery / XP Potion skill picker
Achievement filter no longer shows doubled All/Unlocked/Locked buttons

What’s Next

More combat polish and content expansion on the way. Stay tuned!
