Orbis: Unbound

Orbis: Unbound v1.4.0

New Events for Howling Sands: Added 7 new events to the Howling Sands zone: The Mirage Hunters, Shifting Sands, Scarak Swarm, Sandstorm Rising, The Tomb Warden, Sandstorm Siege, and Pharaoh's Return. Each event has unique mechanics, mob compositions, and multi-phase encounters (WIP); all will be polished as we reach 2.0.0 with custom mobs.

Spawning Overhaul: Mobs now spawn at the correct ground level across all terrain types. Mobs also aggro nearby players on spawn rather than wandering. Mobs may still clip into blocks; the issue is being worked on. 

Living World Scheduler: The event scheduler now fires events dynamically based on player proximity and group size. Solo players will encounter mostly sparks, while groups of players will see more surges and upheavals. Events broadcast their location in chat before mobs spawn, giving players time to respond.

Admin UI Improvements: Added an Active Events page showing all currently running events with teleport support. The event list is now sorted by zone.

Balance & Polish: General tuning across all events, including mob counts, wave timing, and spawn distances. All events across all four zones have been updated to use the new spawning system.
