FeatureLook beneath the island: the World Turtle and its elephants now carry the realm, each one an Algorand RPC operator with its own lamp and banner. In the Minstrels' Gallery, two new tales: What Holds the Realm Up and Pact: the Market of Pools.
New
The World Turtle and its elephants
Beneath the island, the World Turtle carries six elephants on its shell, with a caravan of fourteen more: each is an Algorand RPC operator, a company running the nodes that wallets and apps call. Their lamps show each one's own published status, read every five minutes. Press U or pick Look beneath in Scenic views, and click an elephant for its banner with its networks, services and last 30 days.
The realm in VR
In a VR headset's browser, an Enter VR chip sets the realm on a tabletop before you, and Enter MR places it in your own room. Grab it, turn and scale it with both hands, point at a castle to open its banner, or step down to the ground and walk. Settings has a Show VR button switch.
New tales
Two new tales in the Minstrels' Gallery
What Holds the Realm Up: Wren asks what holds the island up, and Urtho looks beneath at the World Turtle and its elephants. Pact: the Market of Pools: Urtho rides to Pact, where traders swap against pools and the Smart Router splits a swap down several paths at once.
Changes
Save now when there is something to save
In Save my journey, Save now is only active when there is something new to keep on chain. Otherwise it says why: nothing found yet, or everything already saved.
