Originele tekst
It's Game Jam this week, so keep an eye on socials to see what the J-Mods are up to!September Game Jam
If it's made with citrus fruits it's a marmalade...
Our regular Game James give our J-Mods the chance to spend a week exploring personal projects, community suggestions, and other exciting ideas. Keep an eye out on social media this week to catch a glimpse of some of the projects that are in the works!
Like previous projects we aim to give you all an update on how things went next week!
Please note that everything shown is subject to internal reviews, scheduling and testing processes. While these projects may appear complete in places, all Game Jam projects take a significant amount of additional work to implement - not all Game Jam projects shown may make it into the game, and we can't offer a timeline or guarantees of Game Jam content releases.

Fixes and improvements in this week's game update
General
- Cleaned up & reorganized a number of damage buffs to work in a more consistent manner.
- Note: This will have changed the order of operations for a number of buffs, and will likely act as a slight buff for magic/ranged/melee, as the majority of buffs have been grouped after potion stat boosts (apologies as your PVM calculators will need retuning)!
- Reworked a number of damage buffs that previously only affected 'random damage' to affect all damage.
- Previously effects like the Slayer Helmet claimed to boost damage by 12.5%, but due to how this was applied, they actually boosted damage anywhere from 1% up to 12%, These effects have been reworked and rebalanced to consistently buff damage by a fixed amount:
- Slayer helm (Rebalanced from 12.5% random damage to 7.5% total at the lowest tier, 9.5% at the highest tier).
- Genocidal (Rebalanced from 7% random damage to 5% total damage when fully stacked).
- Fort Forinthry guardhouse buff(values remain the same, changed from random to total damage).
- Revenge (Rebalanced from 10% random damage per stack to 5% random damage per stack).
- Spendthrift (values remain the same, random damage changed to total damage).

- All fletched items that are nonspecific to quests or promos now have Fletching XP buffs applied.

- A new Necromancy gameplay settings option has been added, which ensures the highest tier communion item is automatically placed on the pedestal from focus storage, rather than continuing to use the already-selected item.

- The 'Limber Lumber Jumper' Elite Fremennik achievement no longer requires Defence and Constitution.
- The elements on the ribbon bar now correctly expand and collapse when hovering over them with the mouse cursor.

- Dismantling a Cramulet without having the required Inventory space no longer gives a placeholder message.
