4.3 site updated

Just kinda looks like you're supplying them with materials to rebuild the enclave and they are paying you for your services. The weekly budget seems like a lockout, so you can't be paid more than 20000g per week (i.e you can't hand in more than 20000g worth of materials per week). The gratuity I think is indicative of that 120% at the top, so you're getting a bonus payment for whatever reason.

is that gratuity? So is that the amount required I guess?
Weekly budget: 20,000p...unique gil for this npc?

I think that's like an invoice, that we are providing them maybe? The budget is how much they have to spend, we likely have a list(larger than what's shown) of items that we can gather/craft, and then they end up giving us points/gil/whatever currency for what we supply. That's my thoughts based on that screen.

To what end I wonder, will it change the shape of the zone? or it's just an item dump? I guess will have to wait a couple weeks more or so

The P sign there is the same symbol used when showing you the Gil cost for teleporting, I'm pretty sure.
It's literally just the symbol for gil. Since it's a budget, it's probably more like we are given 20k Gil towards developing whatever is on the list.

Ye it's a reversed G, clever SE.......

I'm sure that it'll be similar to what normally happens with end-game hubs such as mor dhona, Idyllshire, in past expansions where the village slowly builds up and adds more structures etc. Only this time we're playing an active role in the rebuilding. What remains to be seen is will we be able to fully rebuild it with this patch, or will it only be partially completed and they will add more in later patches.

Also wondering if it will eventually become an alternative hub to rhalgrs, complete with tome NPCs etc. Will the progress be specific to your character, or is it a server wide effort ?

Oh wow... seems nice!

Seems like the focus is on the crafting update.

But the DF for chocobo races (and that other game) is nice too. I always love an excuse not to have to port around. It'll give me something to do when someone in my raid static's late without having to move from being right next to the NPC mender for once we start .

Well, the game client certainly can certainly offer different maps with different levels of completion. That's what the Moogle Beast quests do, and also what the Vath quests do initially. Even the Ixal's beast quests change the ship they are building over time, but that's just a prop.

Mor Dhona was the exception, it actually changed between patches. If you pay attention to it (you can find screenshots of the 2.x versions) as the game world evolved, and changed it got bigger. So if players who started in 3.0 then didn't see these changes.

It's not entirely unreasonable to "zone off" the map and thus present different versions depending on the progress as well (they did this with Rhalgr's Reach and the house of the Fierce (latter adding a aetherye.)) I don't exactly know what SE does presently when they present different versions of the same map, seems ridicious that they would have a huge map and only change one tiny part of it, it's more likely the maps are divided into sub-maps, and just that submap tile is cosmetically changed (eg specific NPC's only appear with that version of the tile, other players don't see those NPC's unless they are also that far.)
