Latest changes:= September 26th 2023 =* [[Food#Unsparable food items|Restaurant menus]] have been revamped, now offering many more choices.* '''Official reopening of the communityVersion 6.82'''- Explosives hotfix
Changes to [[Explosives]]:
* Pressure mine disposal:
** You can now shoot a mine to detonate it, but you must deliberately aim at one mine and score at least one inaccurate hit.
** You no longer need to roll for accuracy when using an explosive; the explosive blast will set primed pressure mines off automatically.
* Directional mine disposal:
** You can now shoot a directional mine to destroy it (will not detonate on a hit), but you must deliberately aim at one mine and score at least one inaccurate hit.
** If you use a weapon that causes a Standard explosion, it will destroy all mines on the same Side, not just the one you targeted.
** You can now deliberately approach a primed directional mine from a Targeted Side, but you must pass two successive Agility checks (8+ to pass) to avoid setting it off. If you pass both, you enter the Side without setting the mine off. If you fail one check, you still enter the Protected Side, but it sets the mine off at 0.5x damage. Failing both sets it off at full damage. Regardless of the result, carefully approaching a mine breaks Stealth. However, it can also be done outside of combat.

Changes to [[Weapons]]:* New concept introduced: '''Traditional inner tubes'''. Refers to certain firearms This update was co- specifically, lever-action rifles - that do not possess a side-loading gate, designed with GenericArchangel and are instead reloaded by using a traditional, Henry-style inner tube.** Reloading a traditional tube rifle is done the same way as a single-action revolver; a full reloading action is required aims to remove make the tubebestiary more interesting and varied, then more dangerous, yet make fighting worth the normal loose rounds rule applies (up to 3 rounds per turn). The tube is replaced automatically when the character is done reloading.* The [[Winchester Model 270]] stats have been modified to reflect that it is a rifle with a traditional inner tubeeffort more often than not.
* Changes to existing [[creatures]]

= September 8th 2020 =* Changes to [[effects]]** [[Effects#Elemental|Water-soaked]]: Is now a semi-permanent effect intended to represent the effects of being drenched in water. As long as the effect is active, it overrides '''Version On Fire''' (disables any fires on the creature's body and prevents new fires from starting), but makes '''Spec-Elec''' cause double damage. Additionally, while the effect is active, the creature '''+0.2% Fatigue per turn''' at the end of combat, and '''+0.1% Fatigue per room traveled''' at the end of a UA trip. This effect is separate from actual Travel Fatigue, meaning it is unaffected by the [[Traits|Wherever I May Roam trait]].** New item introduced: '''Dispoable bath towel,''' Weight 0.5.55This [[crafting items|item]] is a consumable with the sole purpose of removing an active Water-soaked effect. Once used, it is discarded.

Changes to shops and services:* The style shop has been revamped completely and is now a custom clothing service.** Completely custom human/halfling clothing items and youkai outfits can be designed there. The basic principle is for the player to describe, in free-form, what the item is supposed to look like, then to purchase protection ratings, covered body parts, effects, and more in order to give the custom item a useful purpose. This service is intentionally ''very expensive''.* Dojos have been expanded, and now offer various machines and training programs designed to improve a character's natural statistics:** The stats that can be improved are '''Natural 1 new [[Pain Sensitivity]], Natural [[Strength]], Max [[Blood]], Max [[Limb healthoccupations|Limb HPoccupation]], Natural [[Endurance]], and Natural [[Agility]]'''** Each training program has an XP counter.

A player character must first purchase an item vault before it can be used; this costs [[File:Parallar symbol.png|10px]]'''1000''' and allows the player access to a 50-unit vault. This vault can be upgraded in 50-unit increments, up to the maximum size of 400 units; upgrading costs [[File:Parallar symbol.png|10px]]'''(size x 15)'''** Withdrawing items from a vault now costs [[File:Parallar symbol.png|10px]]'''500 + (weight of items withdrawn x 10)''', and it is not possible to withdraw more than 150 units of items at once.** Withdrawing items from a vault now requires waiting for 1d3 day periods (between 4 and 12 hours), as delivery time.** [[LBEMakaryuudo]] items must be stored empty. LBE items that cannot be folded down (e.g. most backpacks) are not allowed inside the vault anymore.

* Changes to [[HuntingWeapon accessories]]:* Game meat from certain creatures no longer provide [[Effects]] such as Alertness increase or Strength +10%/+20% for a few turns.* Instead, a system of '''[[HuntingWeapon accessories#High-value meatMuzzle brakes|high-value meatMuzzle brakes]]''' was created. Meat from certain creatures is now considered : If equipped to be either a '''Delicacy''' (Double value) or weapon that is also equipped with a scope, the brake limits that weapon's maximum Recoil to 6 on top of applying its normal Recoil -1 effect. In this case, if that weapon''Luxury''' (Triple value)s Recoil were to exceed 6 after applying all modifiers, it is treated as 6.
Changes to [[Creatures]]:
* The item lines of all relevant creatures now state if they produce delicacy meat, luxury meat, tainted meat, illegal meat, or if they produce no meat at all.
** An exception was made for humans, halflings and youkai - their item lines do not display meat status, as it is assumed that the meat of all playable species is already known to be illegal.
* All references to "Poisonous meat" have been changed to the correct term: [[Hunting#Tainted meat|Tainted meat]].

** Fast, Safe, and Deep routes are no longer available between all locations. While most locations are connected by a Deep route, the availability of a Safe or Fast route depends on the existence of a major trade route or traveling axis.
** All wiki pages for each town, alongside the [[Intersection]] page, now feature route notation to inform players of each available route between each location.
** A new [https://cdn.discordapp.com/attachments/379673260302008320/1036360652719149116/MzW_World_Map_11-2022.jpg world map] has been produced. It now shows a visual representation of each available route (green for Safe, blue for Fast, red for Deep).

Changes to ==== [[RecoilWeapons]]:and [[Ammunition]] ====* Recoil calculation The rules now explicitly specify that [[Arrow|Arrows]], [[Large bolt|Large bolts]] and effects no longer rely on exact shot order[[Small bolt|Small bolts]] can be reused, but now instead only needs total shots fired, significantly cutting down on the amount of time that needs according to be spent counting and checking shotsspecific conditions.* The new Recoil system works as follows: Every Recoil level has a limit of shots (the Accuracy Drop Threshold* Under normal conditions, or ADT) all hits and misses produce arrows that can be fired - if a character shoots over ADT, accuracy and aim wandering effects are applied to the entirety of the shot string, and not just the shots that go over ADTretrieved. A second level with even more severe penalties is applied if the amount of shots fired is equal to more than double the limitOnly critical failures result in arrow or bolt breakage.** As before, going over ADT will If the arrowhead is XPL (Explosive): All hits and misses result in aim wandering (which sends shots to &bodyaim instead of the desired point of aim)detonation, however instead of being applied only starting from the shot that went over the limit, aim wandering applies to ALL shots if the total amount of shots fired goes over the limit. [[Weapon accessories#Laser sights|Laser sights]] still cancel out this aim wandering effectmaking explosive arrows 100% non-reusable.** Accuracy windows If the arrowhead is IMP (Improvised): Misses and effects of going over ADT once and twice will also be updatedcritical misses result in breakage. Only hits are reusable.
Changes to [[Combat mode]] and [[Weapons]]; specifically, '''[[Weapons#Firearm failure types|critical failure]]''' effects:
* Like with Recoil changes above, critical failure effects no longer rely on knowing exact shot order, but only the total shot count, and in particular the critical failure count.
** '''Failures to eject (stovepipes)''': For every stovepipe that occurs, the two highest scoring shots (excluding critical failures) are cancelled. If 3 stovepipes occur in a single string of fire, the 6 highest scoring shots are never fired. This has the potential of cancelling critical hits.
** '''Failures to fire (misfires)''': No changes.
** '''Failures to feed''':
*** If '''2 or less''' occurred during the same string of fire: Same as stovepipes.
*** If '''3 or more''' occurred during the same string of fire: All shots are cancelled and the weapon is considered to be '''jammed'''; this can be fixed by performing a reload action.
** '''Failures to burn''': No changes.
New [[ammunition types]] for pistol and rifle calibers:= September 18th 2022 =* '''Tracer (T)''': FMJ bullets with an illuminating compound at the base of the bullet, which lights up and displays bright, colored light when firedVersion 6. Tracer ammunition is used to visibly see the flight path of a bullet, and is useful for controlling long strings of fire, particularly full auto, as it allows a shooter to physically see where the bullets are going5.** Effects: Increases ADT by a certain amount of shots, which scales with Recoil level. However, it always breaks Stealth even when shot with a silenced firearm; the tracer light works both ways and can be seen by others, thus revealing your position.*** Recoil 1-2: ADT +4 shots*** Recoil 3-4: ADT +3 shots*** Recoil 5-6: ADT +2 shots*** Recoil 7-8: ADT +1 shots* '''Semi-Armor Piercing (SAP)''': Also known as metal-piercing bulletsGuns, they offer a lower cost alternative to full AP or APXBlood, but are less effective at defeating armored targets.** Effects: 0.8x damage against unarmored ACs, 1.3x damage against armored ACs.* Retail ammunition using these new projectiles is now also available:** [[.22 Long Rifle]]: Standard T** [[.30 Carbine]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Milsurp T** [[.30-06 Springfield]]: Standard T, Milsurp T** [[.303 British]]: Standard T, Milsurp T** [[.32 ACP]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Milsurp T, Milsurp SAP** [[.357 Magnum]]: Standard SAP** [[.357 SIG]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Personal Defense SAP, Pocket Dragon SAP** [[.380 ACP]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Milsurp T** [[.40 S&W]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Personal Defense T, Personal Defense SAP, Pocket Dragon T, Pocket Dragon SAP** [[.45 ACP]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Personal Defense T, Personal Defense SAP, Pocket Dragon T, Pocket Dragon SAP, Milsurp T** [[.50 BMG]]: Standard T, Milsurp T** [[4.6x30mm]]: Standard T, Milsurp T** [[5.45x39mm]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Milsurp T, Milsurp SAP** [[5.56x45mm NATO]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Milsurp T, Milsurp SAP** [[5.7x28mm]]: Standard T, Milsurp T** [[5.8x42mm]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Milsurp T, Milsurp SAP** [[7.62x25mm Tokarev]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Milsurp T, Milsurp SAP, Milsurp Cold T, Milsurp Cold SAP, Milsurp Hot T, Milsurp Hot SAP** [[7.62x39mm]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Reduced Velocity SAP, Milsurp T, Milsurp SAP** [[7.62x54mm R]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Milsurp T, Milsurp SAP** [[7.62x51mm NATO]]: Standard T, Milsurp T** [[7.92x33mm Kurz]]: Standard T, Milsurp T** [[7.92x57mm Mauser]]: Standard T, Milsurp T** [[9x18mm Makarov]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, High Impulse T, High Impulse SAP, Milsurp T, Milsurp SAP, Milsurp Hot T, Milsurp Hot SAP** [[9x19mm Parabellum]]: Standard T, Standard SAP, Personal Defense T, Personal Defense SAP, Pocket Dragon T, Pocket Dragon SAP, Milsurp T, Milsurp SAP, Milsurp Hot T, Milsurp Hot SAP** [[10x25mm Auto]]: Standard SAPand Drugs; A balancing update

(Flashbangs are unaffected, they still cause enhanced blindness to creatures with night vision).** Weaponlights switched on now '''automatically break stealth'''based, as they are sources of bright light that can be seen by everyone.* WL2 batteries have been '''entirely scrapped''', alongside three models of weapon light (Inforce APL, Inforce WML, and P3X Fury Tactical) due to redundancy.* One new type of dual modules introduced: the '''Streamlight TLR-4''', which can be fitted on Short interfaces.* All accessories that used to require WL2 batteries, no longer need them, and can function indefinitely.

* Instead, FAKs and FSKs are now multiple-use. FAKs have 3 uses before depletion, FSKs have 5 uses (1d3 and 1d5 on randomly found ones)
* No changes to pricing or limb healing effects, all 3 uses of an FAK can therefore heal up to 21 HP, and all 5 uses of an FSK, 60 HP.

New [[skills|skill]]: Shields (Expert)* [[Vampire]]: [[AI AWSM]] loadout replaced with [[AI AW]], two magazines, and 7.62x51mm NATO Standard FMJ ammo
This update aims at simplifying some ==== Other changes ====* [[M1 Garand]]: Missing Customs combinations have been added* [[Hospital]]: Cost of the mechanics related healing limb damage dropped from [[File:Parallar symbol.png|10px]]'''25''' to the Blood statistic[[File:Parallar symbol.png|10px]]'''15'''.
== General changes ==
* Blood no longer naturally heals at a rate of 0.1 per turn, making Pain the only statistic that naturally regenerates every turn no matter what. If you have no wounds, your current Blood level stabilizes at its current level.
* Natural blood regeneration is now tied to the daily reset; on top of the nutrition/hydration that is normally lost at midnight ingame, your body will attempt to regenerate 1 unit of Blood on its own every day (as long as there are no open wounds at that moment). Upon hitting the daily resert, you will lose 150 ntri and 2% Fatigue, and regenerate 1 Blood instantly. This is intended to incite finding BTKs or pay for a medic. If neither is possible, the tried and tested "buy food and let it heal over a few days" also works, however it may take several in-game days for large amounts of lost Blood.
* Blood Transfusion Kits now carry 3 units of Blood each instead of 5. Full BTKs now cost 350 P$ instead of 550 P$.
* A new type of medical item ('''Epoetin-alfa''', syringe) can be consumed to start a 20-turn effect resembling the old natural regeneration effect: +0.1 Blood per turn, in exchange for -15 ntri and +0.2% Fatigue per turn. In total, the item would help your body regenerate up to 2 Blood but burn up to 300 ntri and 4% Fatigue. Syringes of Epoetin-alfa cost 100 P$, making them the cheapest syringe-type medical item.
* Changes to '''Augmentations''': The Guardian LSS no longer increases the amount of Blood regenerated per turn, since that mechanic is gone. Instead, each level increases the amount of Blood regenerated every day by 1, at no extra cost of nutrition and fatigue. Level 1 therefore lets you heal 2 Blood per day, Level 2 is 3 Blood per day, and Level 3 is 4 Blood per day, all for the same cost of 150 ntri/2% Fatigue per turn, making it viable to heal large amounts of Blood loss over the space of a few days.
* Changes to '''Clothing protections''': Buffs to protection ratings. ''-Resistant'' will prevent injuries on hits dealing up to 4 limb damage (previously, 2), and ''-PROOF'' will prevent injuries on hits dealing up to 8 limb damage (previously, 4).

= February 20th 2019 =15 new weapons added to the game (14 firearms, 1 melee weapon), bringing the total to the covered '''Version 5.21,000''' - Extra game modes update!
This update introduces two new methods of playing MazeWorld: '''Survival''' and '''Freeform''', and retroactively renames the 'main' mode into '''Contestant Story''' or just '''Story'''. These new game modes, so to speak, aim at providing more flavors for players and future GMs to enjoy.==== New weapons ====

When playing Survival, players have the option to choose between two modes: '''Tier X''' (The game ends after completing X Challenges) or '''Endless''' (The game only ends with the Survivor's death, or at player request).
The main differences introduced by Survival are as follows:= February 9th 2022 =* No towns or intersections as players know them - Survival is an endless Uncivilized Area streak, equivalent to a Deep route. Explorable areas can even still be found and completed for their rewards!* Nutrition and Hydration Reset occur every time the Survivor reaches a Trading Post (TP reset). In turn, the reset is much lower than normal. The base values are 420 ntri and 140 wtr (0.2x a normal daily reset).* Date and time are not tracked.* No Faction Reputation and no Renown to worry about.* All skills are unlocked: Survivors start with Unskilled in all non-combat skills (unless skill levels were purchased at Startgame)* The Survivor starts with a MAIM account, with all generic and regular named mercenaries available (Special mercs are not available as they're tied to the story)''Version 6.* Every 50 rooms, the Survivor will find a Trading Post, which is nothing more than an intersection with a fixed amount of shops and services (see below for details)* On the room following every second Trading Post (101, 201, 3013...), the Survivor will find a Challenge. Completing the Challenge is necessary to progress forwards!* If playing on Tier X, X corresponds to the amount of Challenges the player must complete in order to reach the end.** There is no upper limit on the Tier number (and subsequent amount of Challenges), though in order to keep games from being unreasonably long, the author12''s recommendation is to keep it between 1 and 10, and any longer games should be Endless instead.** ' - The author personally recommends first1000-time players and GMs to try Survival Tier 4Weapon Update, for a 401-room adventure.* Mercenaries function differentlyPart 12:** The time-based hiring rates do not apply, Conventional rifles and are instead replaced by a 50-room hiring rate (corresponds to the distance between Trading Posts). That special rate is equivalent to 2x the 24-hour rate.** Upon being hired, a mercenary will immediately join the Contestant with no waiting time.** Merc deaths do not need to be reported.** All mercenaries show up with their gear. There are no gear costs - their equipment is essentially free.** All special parameters are ignored.Handgear
The only objective in Survival is to survive. Each Survivor will be entered into a leaderboard for creatures killed 37 new weapons and KV score obtained at 1 new caliber added to the end of their rungame (30 firearms, as well as rooms visited in Survival Endless7 melee weapons, including 1 integrated bayonet), bringing the total to 985.
== Freeform play == New caliber ====This is essentially the normal game, but without main story quests or sidequests and with certain shops, services and other conveniences immediately available. This mode aims at a more relaxed experience, without the pressure of the pre-made main story, as well as offering an opportunity to design your own stories and plots* [[7. 92x107mm]]
The main differences introduced by Freeform are as follows:* All skills are unlocked. Freeform characters start with Unskilled in all non-combat skills, as well as a MAIM account.* The Freeform character starts with a MAIM account, with all generic and regular named mercenaries available (Special mercs are not available as they're tied to the story).** Reputation and Renown requirements from certain mercenaries are disabled.* Roazon is collapsed, exactly as it would after the Contestant completes Sidequest S3-2.* All repeatable activities are available: Trading Missions, Mercenary Contracts, Mining, and Bounty Hunter* Several shops and services that are normally only obtained as sidequest rewards are available from the start:** The Power Armor Shop (Ferland Sector) is available and fully upgraded.** The Advanced Handloading Services are available at the Ellen Sector factory.** The Powder & Primer Shop is available at the Littleton factory.* Renown and Reputation are disabled, to allow GMs more flexibility.** It is recommended to replace any rewards in Renown/Rep with money, where applicable and where it would make sense.

= January 17th 2019 === Other changes ===='''Version 5.1''' - KISS Update (Keep It Simple, Stupid!)* New ability: [[Steady aiming]]
This update aims at simplifying several game mechanics deemed too granular or generally not fun enough.
== Simplified nutrition and hydration =February 1st 2022 =* Nutrition and hydration no longer decay at a rate of 1 per turn. Instead, these stats are slashed by a set amount at a fixed rate and frequency, to symbolize meeting daily recommended needs; these are called the '''Nutrition ResetVersion 6.3.11''' and '''Hydration Reset''', respectively.** Nutrition is reset every day at midnight. - The reset will reduce the current Nutrition by an amount equivalent to (meat worth x 30). For a human1000-Weapon Update, that amount is 2100 ntri. ** Hydration is reset every day at midnight. The reset will reduce the current Hydration by an amount equivalent to (meat worth x 10). For a human, that amount is 700 wtr.* Nutrition Part 11: Precision rifles and hydration each have new value ranges and corresponding effects; they are generally simpler and more clearTwo-cut effects.** Nutrition going too high will increase minimum Fatigue, and eventually reduce Agility.** Nutrition going too low will decrease Strength, and eventually disable the ability to heal Pain, Blood or Limb Damage (due to the body not having the "fuel" to do so).** Hydration going too low will decrease Strength, then Accuracy, then cause Hallucinations, until eventually causing death.handed clubs
== Simplified fatigue ==* Fatigue no longer gradually increases every turn 13 new weapons added to the game (what was called "natural fatigue"7 firearms, 6 melee weapons). Effects that can increase Fatigue bit by bit every turn still do exist.* The "Energized" tier is deleted.* Reaching an amount of Fatigue equal to 2x Endurance will result in death.* All effects of high fatigue now decrease Agility, and eventually decrease accuracy and cause Hallucinationsbringing the total to 948.
== Simplified clothing and armor ==* Firearms:* Clothing and armor can no longer sustain damage, period. The only exceptions are* [[Class 1 weapons]]:** Trauma plates - which still continue to work as they normally do* [[Accuracy International AW]]** Powered armor * [[CZ TSR]]*** [[KBP VSK- which require a condition meter to determine protection level. When wearing power armor, damage calculation is greatly simplified - 1 limb damage sustained = 1 armor condition lost.94]]* Cutting clothes into rags (as long as they have the RagOK tag) now always succeeds and results in obtaining 1d4 Rags (at least 1 is now guaranteed). Multipliers (0.5x or 2x) affect the result of that 1d4, and it is always rounded up** [[Norinco JS]]*** [[St.George Arms Leader 50 A1]]*** [[Winchester Model 70]]*** [[ZVI Falcon OP96]]** [[Class 5 Long weapons]]:*** [[Eku]]*** [[Flat bat]]*** [[Forging sledgehammer]]*** [[Spade]]*** [[Tamping bar]]*** [[Toothbat]]
== Simplified weapon maintenance ==
* The Reliability/Max Cleanliness stat is scrapped.
* Durability is renamed Max Condition, and all firearms' Max Condition values have been rewritten.
* Critical failures have been completely revamped and simplified. Condition is now meant to be lost on a critical failure, and for each 2 rolled, the new command '''@critfail''' must be used.
** @critfail contains 80 possible effects, half of which are simple condition loss effects (ranging from 100 to 2000). The other half are condition loss effects (ranging from 50 to 1000) with a weapon failure (failure to fire, eject, etc.) effect on top. If the relevant weapon is a melee weapon or does not have a corresponding weapon failure type, the condition loss effect is doubled instead.
Changes to handloading:= January 23rd 2022 =* Load level (hotness) of ammunition affects the severity of the Condition loss on a critical failure'''Version 6. -P/Cold: Condition loss x03.5. +P/Hot: Condition loss x2. +P+/Super: Condition loss x4.* Powder quality of ammunition also affects the severity of the Condition loss on a critical failure. Surplus: Condition loss x3. Premium: Condition loss x0.5.* These effects may stack. Round up any results.* If shooting ammunition of mixed hotness or powder quality in the same turn (10''not recommended!'')- The 1000-Weapon Update, the hottest Part 10: Pistols and dirtiest ammunition fired that turn is used as a reference for ''all'' rounds fired that turn.One-handed clubs
