Toys & Food Update
Posted by Quadricat on Oct 16, 2021 7:40 am
H3 Meter Feed/Play Values While feeding and playing it now shows the real values for each food/toy. Previously this information was intentionally obscured. I believe this was to try and encourage all food/toys to be used, not just the best of its value. We have quests that consume these items now however, and I personally believe the player should have always been given accurate numbers. It was confusing and misleading to see something did "5 to 90%" but the item would never give you more than 10% no matter how many you used. This is remedied now, and you will see the exact range each item can provide for your pumas! Toy Reusability There was a system in place to reuse toys that got clobbered in the update. Oops! Our bad, sorry about that! All toys used to have a 50% chance of being used up, or, possibly retaining the item. This maxed out at 4 uses, after which it would ALWAYS be used up no matter what. Since the feature needed to be reimplemented anyways we decided to go ahead and change it up a tiny bit. Toys now have variable re-usability, and there is no cap to how many times you might get lucky and re-use a toy. This means some toys might not be reusable at all, or still be a 50% chance, some might be more, or less, and its very easy for us to tweak these values to balance if necessary. Yay! Toys overall were given a buff to their happiness recovery, meaning it should be less tedious to play with your pumas. Sorry this update is mostly a wall of text! I hope you guys find it useful and informative to know which toys and foods recover best, or worst, and that its easier to care for your pumas! ♥

We're back!
Posted by Quadricat on Oct 05, 2021 11:45 am
After hours and hours of troubleshooting we made a decision we were hoping to have more time to do-- we've moved servers! Our downtime and issues were caused by an issue on our previous host that was beyond our control. Ugh! :( But we had planned to move to a new server for a while.. we just wanted to do it on our own time, not rush into it. We are now running great on the new server and the 500 errors and site bouncing around should be done with! Sorry for the unexpected downtime, and thank you so much for your patience!!

Uh oh, problems!
Posted by Quadricat on Oct 04, 2021 10:02 pm
Its never easy is it? It looks like we encountered a pretty big bug that has to do with how things are configured on the server. A few error 500 bugs are popping up around the site as a result. You may experience these errors or the site not loading at the moment as we try to resolve this. Sorry about the problems, unfortunately we had no way to anticipate this particular issue :( As always if the site goes down please check our facebook or discord for more info! As soon as I have more information I will update everyone.

Maintenance has concluded!
Posted by Quadricat on Oct 04, 2021 6:49 pm
The update is done! -- HURRAY! Be sure to drop by Leo's Loot and pick up a couple Jubilation LTDs to celebrate! And now a summary of changes: Bone Collector Bone Collector is now a regular quest giver! He will still ask for a sum of shards and some items, and reward you with pence and a token (and sometimes a firefly too!) A new shop is open for him called the Bone Collector's Crypt I have added a TEMPORARY trade in Festivia's Exchange to convert your shards to tokens at a rate of 250 shards for one token-- this will be removed next Monday the 11th! Notifications Notification page and notification settings! ALL notifications will show on this page, so you can always review any you may have missed! Notifications that display on your regular pages have a limit now, and a link to view/manage any more unread notifications. Ones that you disable will never show up on your main pages, and ONLY be visible on the new notifications page. Color/Paradigm Blending Customs and splatters/morpholixers now allow for Para-Color blends! This means if you select a paradigm (like Interstellar) and a color (like red #FF0000) they will blend at 50%! At this time we do not support creating Paradigm-Paradigm blends, sorry! Maybe in the future...? :) ooh mysterious! Premium Shopping Bonus & Bank Interest Premium shopping bonus has been removed, but increased bank interest to offset it You must visit the bank to manually collect your interest! Interest is calculated every Friday at 1:00 AM Puma Time. Misc Minor Changes Friends online in the top bar! More secure cookies and encryption Dragn's Hoard had some adjustments to make it a little more fair, no cascade-booms! Editing your shop will give a better summary of what is changed/removed Minor css theme changes Pin The Tail has been removed and tails are now collectables only! This was a BIG update! Phew!! It may not seem like much has changed on P3, but EVERY single page that handles all the stuff you do on P3 was updated. Feeding, playing, dressing, moving items, buying, selling, pms, forums, etc. ALL OF IT!! With this update it means we can implement new features much faster now, and with more control of various aspects of P3. Yay! We are hoping to do a big feature-filled update next, with quality of life improvements and more to do on P3! :) A HUGE thank you to Jesse, AKA Nibato #12921, for all your hard work coding for us, we appreciate you so much! Another HUGE thank you to our playtesters, you squashed so many bugs its unbelievable! Your help really sped things along for the update. I handed out some badges in recognition of your help! â™¥ Finally, since this update was so big, its entirely possible we missed something, or that something unexpected may show up. So if you find a bug, please report it to our Bug Reports & Glitches forum! [ Click here to report bugs/issues! ] Thank you for your patience everyone, and I hope you enjoy the new features and changes!
