I've basically considered my Jungle Temple world rendered incompatible with this. I'd spend my time stockpiling resources but....a character hacker is just so much easier.

[Sirus]

So, old maps will likely be incompatible? Damn, I have a lot of nice stuff stockpiled. Gonna have to take as much as I can with my character.

[nenjin]

No, I don't doubt they'll still be compatible. But there's a lot of features and/or things that are only created on map gen. I get people are ok with having a map from several versions ago that they still fool around with. Personally, my own worlds are only ideal if they're generated from the newest version.

[Sirus]

Ah, okay. Well, as long as I can transfer my stuff to a new map I'll be fine with it.

...Hasn't 1.1 been up for ages?

I meant 1.2. And yes. I misread.

D'oh.

[Ultimuh]

Still no news of any speciffic release date for this update?

[nenjin]

And before anyone asks, the last stated release date goal was the end of this month.

Not even an hour ago ><

...
You know, I am probably going to facepalm at myself now.

* There is a very valuable set of things that happen in hardmode to help you fight the spread (More than people know of) and you will gain a lot more control of how your world is

* He also considers implementing gear/accessories that help with building
* He's considering taking stuff from the console version, like the autodig (Hold down a hotkey, like CTRL, to remove all blocks/walls in that direction, Hold down CTRL to remove all the tiles in the direction of the mouse to make a tunnel the size of your character)
* He thinks Mounts could be super fun
* Terraria 2 will be 2.5D
* Terraria 3 will be 3D

For an update that's supposed to drop at the end of the month, it seems like there's still quite a bit in flux.

Well if he takes a year of hollidays between major patchs for each game... we might see terraria 3 in about 10 years.
