Updating from 1.9.5

Overview

Important

Your saves will automatically be converted upon interacting with a game after updating.

Caution

While there should not be any major issues, we still recommend backing up your saves prior to updating.

Note

Java 17 or higher is required in order to run this version of the bot.

Important Changes

• The /select command is removed. The /claim command is now context-aware and does the same thing that select does in the appropriate settings.
• The /palette command allows you to select the game palette. It also accepts custom .rkp palette files.
• The /addmap command now accepts .rkm files directly.
• The /claim command has been enhanced with new options to claim auto or claim exact.
• Other commands have had adjustments made to make them nicer to use.

To-Do List for Bot Hosts

• Delete res/colors, as the game now uses the RkpPalette system. There are some default palettes provided, and you can add your own palettes when creating a game, or change the palette mid-game as long as the palette has the same number of colors as the current palette in-use.
• Change res/maps/options to res/maps/metadata and ensure all files are moved to the new directory.
• Remove res/images/color-choices-blank.png.
• Remove res/images/color-choices-vertical-blank.png.
• Remove res/images/player-name-background.png.
• Copy the lang/ folder (available in the attached .zip file) to the res/ directory.
• Copy the new .jar file over and update the .ps1 files or any other relevant commands you might use to use the new .jar name. Alternatively, rename the .jar to your preferred name.
• Go to res/config/bot/config.json and change registerCommandsOnStartup from false to true before starting the bot in order to update all of the available commands.

RkpPalette System

The Riskrieg Map Editor supports creating and editing RkpPalettes starting from version 2.8.2-0.2206. However, we still recommend you always use the latest version of the Map Editor.

Note

RkpPalettes can have between 2 and 16 colors.

The number of colors also determines the maximum number of players that can join a given game.

Palettes are per-game.

Known Issues

Warning

You will lose alliances when updating.

• If you would like to preserve alliances, you will need to manually re-add them by editing the save files directly, or just re-make them post-update with commands. If you update them manually, you need to be aware that saves are only converted upon a game being interacted with post-update.
