[closed]Beta test version of Andor's Trail v0.7.2 is out!

Maybe you didn't find it in the keep?. Keeps and castle are different things

All the lakes in that area have no sand shore like in the rest of the game. It's like the grass grows right in the water. It is not a bug but it is not consistent with the rest of the game.

Yes. Should we leave it like that for variety, or change it? We will have to discuss this. Thanks for pointing it out.

There is another new map, just north of the Stoutford walls, that has a pond with grass all the way to the water for some for the edge, and sand for some of the edge. That map was created by Ian, whereas the Guynmart maps were created by Nut. So laziness wins the day, and going forward we have more variety in shorelines

Will there be an update to the quest Lost Treasures in the new version? Really wanting to find that heartstone.

I got one....

That's not possible. It actually does exist in the sources, but it is not in any droplist so you can't get one. You may have something else, but not the heartstone.

Almost as soon as I hit submit and went to sleep I realized it was a demonheart or some such thing. I was wrong in my thinking and since I no longer have the game up to the point I had played (before the corrupted save file) I can't just go to my inventory to confirm.

Tried to go back a little bit to the NEW gamesave I made just for this (which I had overwritten once or twice) only to find myself back in the green maze where I was before the beta. So yeah creating a new save file just for this didn't work.

It should work. I do it all the time. You can load any savegame from a release version, or any savegame from this beta. What you cannot do is load any savegame from this beta in a release version from Google Play.

Sadly, it didn't and I lost all my progress to that point. No big deal, just started over to see the new areas as they were intended to be seen in the progression of game play.

I don't remember the rat cave being so easy. I can remember pushing it off until level 6-8. Last night I beat it at level 2 and have since farmed rat tales up to level 8. I have my old tablet from last year.... I want to go back and compare to see if what I think happened did in fact take place. More on that later I guess.

As for the little girl lost quest..... Might I make a suggestion?

Change her dialogue to read "it must be IN OR AROUND the castle". Constantly telling me "it's in one of the ROOMS OF the castle" was driving me nuts because I honestly checked everything thoroughly. The way it is presently worded leads to ONE conclusion... Look inside the castle.... Which only becomes a waste of the players time.

Where did you find it that you consider to not be in the castle?

The castle.... The building she is physically found in. In point of fact, several times I have LEFT that building only to have her say "we must look in the rooms of the castle" as if to tell me to go back there.

Suffice it to say... The CASTLE only has 4 rooms... And from what I gather from conversations here... The helmet can be in one of the towers... Which I assume (because I no longer have my game save to confirm) means somewhere along the walls and gates surrounding the castle... And not inside the castle itself.

The castle

is the whole complex, the buildings including the surrounding wall and towers. At least the helmet could be anywhere in this complex.
But I will think about Gyra's hint again, It is meant to help amd not to confuse.

The building you found her in is merely the keep my friend. The castle is the walls and and anything within them

Indeed. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Castle#Common_features Technically, it also includes the moat outside the walls, but the helmet is not there

Label me a dumb American.... I grew up in Germany surrounded by "castles".... The castle was always the main building from which the king resided. Nevertheless the girl does point back to a building with rooms.... And it would seem from this very thread that I was not the only one led astray by this misunderstanding.

You really need to rethink her dialogue. It is, by point of fact, misleading.

[BethelAbba]

Skyrim:. You want to go to the CASTLE.... Wether in Solitude or White Run.... You DON'T go to the town within its walls... You go to a SPECIFIC building which is SPECIFICALLY designated as THE castle.

The same could be said of any RPG which is likewise set in a medieval setting... Universally.

That's the keep, not the castle https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Keep

Hint:

look in one of the tower of the castle.

Also you can't just rely upon guess of a little girl who can believe in a lazy lying lord of that castle.
