Development Update March 2023

Greetings Adventurers!

Not a huge lot to say this month, my time has mostly been spent:

• Adding support for Keys from the Golden Vault.
• Small improvements to Pathmuncher and DDB Importer.
• Many effect improvements and additions to DDB Importer.

What's coming this month?

I've got a couple of small things in the pipeline, one a bit experimental, so we will see how that plans out. I'm also aiming to tackle some outstanding adventures that have not been mapped and aligned.

Key Expiry

If your key has expired, you can generate a new one at https://activate.ddb.mrprimate.co.uk/ 

Many thanks for your continued support
