Rollover

From TheKolWiki

As rollover approaches, warning messages are issued by chat system messages 15, 10, 5, and 1 minute(s) prior to rollover. If you are still logged in when rollover arrives, you will be kicked out of the Kingdom and will need to log back in after rollover is over.

During rollover, a number of changes occur. These changes include direct character changes, changes to character counters and daily limits, changes in the Kingdom, and other changes. Additionally, the entire database is backed up to prevent another occurrence of White Wednesday.

Direct Character Changes

• Forty adventures are added to each character.
• The character is given extra adventures based on their campground furnishings, Clan Rumpus Room furniture, and certain equipment worn at rollover.
• The character's available adventures, if over 200, are reduced to 200.
• After the 200 adventure cap, a special holiday adds adventures.
• The character gains HP and MP based on their campground housing and furnishings. (No housing or furnishings whatsoever = No gain.)
• If the character used goofballs the previous day and the Hopped Up on Goofballs effect has worn off, they gain 100 adventures of Goofball Withdrawal.
• The effect Beaten Up is removed for each character.

Changes to Character Counters, Flags and Daily Limits

In addition to the things listed at Daily Activities:

• The character's drunkenness counter is reset to zero.
• The character's fullness counter is reset to zero.
• The character's spleen counter is reset to zero.
• The character's enjoyment of fancy chocolate, fancy but probably evil chocolate, and vitachoconutriment capsules is restored.
• If the character has any books on the mystical bookshelf, reset the counters.
• If the character has a plot in the Mushroom Fields, spores will grow into mushrooms, or new spores may grow (and their parents disappear) if the conditions are right.
• The character's mall item limits are reset.
• If Sunday night, the character's mall store advertising budget is square-rooted.
