Bringing More Activity to the Frontier

Outlaw activity and additional world-event development give the towns of Claim the Range a more dynamic role.

Riders approach a busy frontier town at sunset.

We want the world of Claim the Range to feel active rather than completely static.

Recent development has expanded the game's Outlaw-related town systems, creating more opportunities for the frontier to change around its players.

This work builds on the legendary towns added in an earlier milestone and gives those locations a greater role in the developing game world.

The milestone also included additional work on the game's event and resource-loss systems.

The completed local build passed its full automated test run, although deployment of these changes to staging remains a separate task.

The broader goal is to make traveling the Range feel less predictable and more interesting over time.
