Changed: Synergy 1.1.5-Beta.2-hotfix.1

Communities and Story NPCs

• Reversible transformation rite reversal: Players who joined a community through a voluntary reversible transfur rite can now speak with their Chief to request returning to human form. Leaving or being expelled from a community also automatically reverts any borrowed reversible camp form.
• Chief play exclusion: Community Chiefs (Weaver, Matriarch, Archivist, and Pathfinder) no longer offer or accept the Play action in the interaction wheel, and are completely excluded from autonomous peer play interactions with both players and other camp residents.
• Stationary dialogue: Story NPCs and Chiefs now stay properly rooted in place during active conversations instead of drifting or sliding away mid-dialogue.

Commands

• Admin telepathy management: Added /changedsynergy telepathy inspect <player>, /changedsynergy telepathy grant <player>, and /changedsynergy telepathy revoke <player> (operator permission level 2) to inspect, grant, or revoke permanent latex telepathic network understanding.

World Generation and Performance

• Faster /locate structure searches: Optimized terrain lookup for community structures with early biome pre-checks and sparser clearing sampling, and relaxed strict slope limits on the Forest Treehouse and Hyena's Hideout (supported by existing foundation fill). This resolves severe server-thread freezes and long search stalls when using /locate to find community landmarks.

Changed: Synergy 1.1.5-Beta.2

Communities and NPCs

• Join a Forest Treehouse, Hyena's Hideout, Observatory or Desert Refuge as your home community. Each household has its own membership and local trust, separate from regional reputation and personal affection. Leaving or changing homes preserves your relationships and local records.
• Meet the Silk Moth Weaver, Hyena Matriarch, Eagle Owl Archivist and Jerboa Pathfinder, with branching conversations based on their journals and surroundings. The green laboratory's Researcher also tells his story. Dialogue and community reactions are available in English, Simplified Chinese and Russian, with hand-drawn species-colored frames, paced speech, emotional text and understood private thoughts.
• Join in your current body or choose a reversible or permanent transformation ritual. Permanent rituals require TrueTransfur and a second confirmation, and grant Native Origin latex identity. Ordinary reversal is blocked; authorized Native Origin re-selection can return you to human. Reversible rituals retain reversal eligibility with TT installed.
• Help through conversation: donate supplies, fulfill community or personal requests, tend crops, protect residents and share meals. Residents can approach and ask to talk. There is no attendance requirement or penalty for declining a request or spending time away. High local trust unlocks the community's outfit.
• Main communities use dedicated Community Supplies chests for donations, food and gathered resources. Personal requests go directly to their owner. Marked private storage remains private to members, with witnessed warnings and trust penalties for repeated searching; books and other readable story media remain open to visitors.
• Residents gather, farm, hunt suitable prey, eat together and sleep in available beds or perches within their home, including sleeping places you add. They stay near their community. Joining introduces the residents and marks campmates in the relationship roster; ordinary residents can also become bonded companions, with both identities shown.
• Chiefs offer human visitors a temporary respite from their household's transfur pursuit, allowing safe introductions. Fixed characters retain their home duties and return after confirmed death or disappearance, preserving relationships and story progress. They cannot become bonded followers or be taken over.

Species and clothing

• Added male and female Latex Spotted Hyenas, with playable origins, natural spawns, responsive ears and matching transfur items. They belong to the jungle and savanna population, with camp residents elsewhere. Their diet includes bones, leather and suitable brewing ingredients for temporary benefits.
• Added the mountain Latex Eagle Owl, with gliding, extra jumps and wing beats, toggleable night vision, 270-degree head tracking and talon-based aerial grabbing. It sees in monochrome, regaining color on full-moon nights or through lowered Aviator goggles. It supports Addon Plus's existing Wing Flap ability.
• Added the desert Latex Jerboa, a smaller, fragile but quick species with responsive ears, a playable origin and matching transfur items. Jerboas and Muntjacs can charge a higher jump by holding jump, with a horse-style charge meter and protection from the charged jump's own landing damage; extra drops still hurt.
• Added the Trailcloth, Aviator, Ranger and Wayfarer outfits, with recipes and fitting for different body shapes and human skins. Wayfarer automatically uses its Pathfinder cut on Jerboas. Aviator goggles can be raised or lowered, and Trailcloth and Aviator can use either inner or outer clothing slots. Updated Synergy female bodies and their fitted clothing.
• With Curios installed, players and creatures use real Curios clothing slots and storage, replacing the original clothing interface while retaining native restrictions, visibility controls and style switching. Existing equipped clothes migrate automatically; the original interface remains available without Curios.
• Added standing and horizontal two-block bird perches, sleeping one or two eligible birds. They work in communities and can be bound to player camps. Eagle Owls sleep by day and are active at night; perch sleep uses third person. Synergy creatures close their eyes while sleeping.

Exploration

• Added Forest Treehouses, Forest Watchtowers including a birch variant, Hyena's Hideout, three smaller hyena camps and the mountain Observatory, built by Crossader. Treehouses and watchtowers generate in forests, hideouts in savannas, and observatories in Snowy Slopes and Grove. Small hyena camps serve tropical, plains and snowy regions.
• Added the rare Desert Refuge, a subterranean community beneath surface ruins, plus Oasis camps in deserts and Muddy Campsites on badlands red-sand lowlands. These structures include residents, supplies, sleeping places and authored discoveries.
• Explorer maps to the main communities can appear in selected biome-related loot chests and watchtowers. Smaller camps retain their own residents, supplies and routines without separate Chief admission or remote inventory sharing.
• Rebalanced White Latex Forest and Dark Latex Plains generation, and restored surface features in White Latex Lakes and Dark Latex Lakes. Wild orange trees follow normal terrain placement rules; latex players can harvest fruiting leaves with an empty hand, and harvested fruit can regrow.

Social play and camp behavior

• Added Forgive to transfur negotiation, granting affection and ending the negotiation while keeping the current body. Absorbed individuals retain their identity and relationships for separation with Addon Plus's Diffusion Syringe; ordinary assimilation creates a fresh creature.
• Player hypnosis is now a toggle. Press once to keep using the existing ability, then press again to stop. The icon distinguishes physically holding the key from leaving the ability active after release.
• Merged desert and badlands regional affiliation into Arid areas, retaining their reputation consequences and rivalries. Local communities continue to manage membership and trust independently.
• Added No Civilization Mode, through configuration and the synergyReputationNeutrality game rule, for survival-focused packs that want individual friendship and bonding without positive regional reputation advantages or newly established wild outposts.
• Outpost workers organize deposits around matching supplies and use suitable overflow storage. Bonded companions support Assign Seat. Creatures that use doors can also open wooden trapdoors and fence gates.

Interface and important fixes

• Replaced the Native Origin archive with hand-drawn pixel artwork and authored Crisscross notes. Wheels with more than eight entries scroll through additional choices; Shift + scroll switches paired wheels. Added optional native-player animal calls and human-start TT Instinct access.
• Fixed human-start transformed players being unable to establish bonds, organic creatures pursuing neutral transformed players solely for their form, and the infection bar remaining full after a companion's release or revival.
• Guards respond to nearby visible hostile monsters, combat no longer repeatedly stalls, and pursuers retain players they are carrying. Escaping a grab no longer counts as an attack that rallies unrelated nearby latexes; ordinary hostile escape penalties remain.
• Friendly play hugs and core companion grabbing, rescue and evacuation work independently of Changed Addon Plus. Updated current TrueTransfur 2.x compatibility. Fixed Swordfish transformation crashes involving Entity Model Features / Fresh Moves, Swordfish Rush startup crashes reported with RosmontisLib.

Servers and clients should both update to 1.1.5-Beta.2. New structure layouts and resident rosters apply to newly generated or placed structures; existing saved buildings are not overwritten. Community gameplay guides are available in English and Chinese.
