27 May 2003 - Sleeping bags and pickaxes
Today's update adds the much requested sleeping bags to RuneScape! These allow you to quickly recover your fatigue without having to walk all the way to a bed. Now you can finally pull those all-nighter fishing sessions you've been dreaming of.
As well as adding a touch of realism to the game, the fatigue system is also designed to stop people cheating using macro software. To wake-up from your slumber you will therefore have to answer a very simple challenge which should be easy to answer, but hard for cheats to automate.

This will make things much more difficult for all those cheaters who've been trying to ruin the game for everyone else. To ensure maximum protection we've also adjusted fatigue slightly so you get VERY SMALL amounts of fatigue on other skills. However it literally only takes a few seconds to recover using a sleeping bag, so this really shouldn't impact on the game negatively.

Sleeping bags are on sale at all General Stores throughout RuneScape.

We've also made some changes to the mining system.

a) Since fatigue is now extremely easy to recover we've also put the rocks back to how they were before we changed them. Hard/soft-rocks don't make much sense now fatigue is so much easier to recover.

b) We've added another much requested feature - different types of pickaxes! These take the repetative clicking out of mining with rune-pickaxes hitting the rock 12 times per click!

c) We have kept the ores showing up as different colours in the rocks, so you don't waste time mining empty rocks.

Please may I ask that everyone tries this new system properly BEFORE commenting on it this time (e.g wait at least 24 hours before sending us feedback). Feedback from players who haven't actually used the system they are commenting on, is obviously utterly useless to us.


What in the heck happened to the bed and sleeping bag?
It was a good idea...
Was this RSC?

Yeah, it was taken out at the start of RuneScape 2.

I don't think fatigue was a good idea, it's annoying to have to sleep before you can gain XP again... And I don't think it stoped macros.

I meant sleeping bags and beds, They are sorta pointless now.
For run energy now, that would be good.

They didn't restore running energy. There was no run option on RSC. They took it out because it was a pain to the actual players, and it didn't stop the macroers anyway.

I shoulda said, It would be good if they had when running. They did have running before that.

Fatigue was RSC's anti-auto system. It didn't work well, but hell was it great for PKers. No exp when pking = No worries of accidentally leveling up defence.

No, running came in RuneScape II, which might of been a suggestion they couldn't make in Classic.
