Settings and What's new

The Settings page of the Sage menu (30 settings editable in game, gestures, defaults) and the "What's new" page after an update.

Released Interface v0.0.5 4 min read

The Settings page (設定) of the Sage menu changes how he behaves without leaving the game: voice, animation, quiet mode, voice recognition, Magic Sense auras… Every change is written to your config file at once. And the first time you open the menu after an update, another page comes before it: "What's new".

Using the page

Open the menu (G) and pick Settings; the Sage says "Displaying settings." Each row shows the setting's name on the left and its value on the right; hovering a row shows a reminder of the gesture.

Type Left click Right click

Choice Next value Previous value
List Read only: shows "N entries" or "empty" —
  • A number never leaves its range: if the step would cross it, the value stays where it is.
  • Every change is saved immediately to greatsage-client.toml, and the Sage confirms it ("Understood.", no more than once every 4 seconds).
  • The menu does not pause the game: you can tune the volume or the darkening and see the result on the next announcement.

  • Danger threshold: above this multiple of your EP, a creature's aura turns red and the Sage advises you to flee. See Assess Mode.
  • Analysis failure chance only shows up in singleplayer: it is a world setting, written to greatsage-common.toml. On a server, the server's file decides, and the row is not shown. See Skill analysis.

The "What's new" page

The first time you open the menu after the mod is updated, whether with G or by voice, a "What's new" page shows up first, with the Sage's chime: the list of the version's new features, each with a title and a short description.

  • The Continue button, Enter, Space or Escape close it and open the menu you asked for.
  • It does not come back for that version. The version you have seen is kept in lastSeenVersion (client config): empty that setting to see the page again the next time you press G.
  • A version with no written news shows nothing.
  • The page does not pause the game.

For 0.0.7, it presents ten items: shader rendering and the Sage's console, ceremonies as real scenes, Raphael's evolution remade, the Sea of Souls, skill fusion, Magic Sense, faster growth, analysis opening locked modes, clearer menus, and fixes. See Changelog.
