Just tried the 'Build floor space' option without any result. No feedback from clicking it at all.

Additionally, If you build an oubliette prison wall, then go upstairs and back down, it replaces the correctly built cell with one that is bugged and broken. Below is the result after building a spiked-steel cage. Breaks for steel/oak, steel, and spiked-steel. Originally built an oak one. Haven't tried bones cage.

Thanks for letting us know, I'll look into it :)

But I learned on Runescape that dragons resist magic because they are mythical creatures? :wat:
Am I mixing up things or you.

Metal dragons are weak to fire related spells yes, but that's about it as far I'm aware.

Quite interesting. The OSRS wiki for Lava Dragons said that they are weak to Magic, Stab & Ranged (http://oldschoolrunescape.wikia.com/wiki/Lava_dragon) and I assumed those weaknesses applied to all dragons. I hadn't managed to code in a weakness to stab attacks yet, but I had planned that for a (the?) next update.
It appears lava dragons do not fall under the category of either metallic or chromatic dragons. I'll be sure to adjust the weaknesses of those 2 types of dragons in the next update.

Thanks for the input!


[Edit] Just released a new client, due to a bug reported by players using Java 9, where there was no right-click menu. This was caused by an incompatibility in how mouse clicking was handled by the client, but I have applied a fix for this in client version 143.

Is it possible to use different textures for skins?

Because I'm thinking water dragons with water textures would be pretty sweet.

And let's just say a new update allows players to wear water shoes, where they can walk on predefined regions of water to fight magical water dragons! What an experience that would be.

..back to studying.. someone buy me coffee pls...

Yes, as stated in the news post, they are assigned as Elite Wilderness Slayer tasks (can be blocked just like all slayer tasks)

Maybe, but we usually opt to not make them *too* strong at first. If an NPC (especially in the wilderness) is not very popular or interesting for our players, we will certainly buff their rewards. But first we want to see how it goes and what the opinions of the community members are before making any further decisions on it.
