Have you got any problems occuring using your Army System, anything from broken links to massive errors in the game itself! Just post them below and Mike will either try to deal with them himself, or else contact the creator, but he can't do that if he has nothing to comment about!


Current Issues:
  • Broken Links
  • MySQL Errors
  • Attack
  • Item Buying
  • Item Selling
  • Item Repairing
  • Possible Balance
  • Other
Choose from any of these to descrive your problems, since I see these ase the most likely areas for mistake, this can include anything to do the Army System, feel free to post what you see as a bug, and if it isn't then...but if it is then you've helped!

Broken Links

-How do I play?
Currently linked to the wrong page, and therefore opens the Front Page or Portal.
To fix, (http://www.staredit.net/??showtopic=1881&st=0&#entry22708) should be changed to either (http://www.staredit.net/?showtopic=1881&st=0&#entry22708) or simply (http://www.staredit.net/?showtopic=1881)
This will fix this problem quickly without any real issues, just a broken link.

Item Repairing

-Cost
This is currently set to free, which will need to be changed, not because it is a balance issue, because it cannot be a free of charge repair, because it would be pointless, on the previous KingsOfChaos it was around the 10% of the overall cost of the item, or 5% depending...This will need to be introduced soon as this can be taken advantage of as weapons with automatic repair and for free is a bit unfair.

Possible Balance

-Selling
Currently at about 90% of current price, could be seen as a little to high so that you lose so little that it isn't a problem, likely around 75% or 60% would be a better option.
(Please note Possible Balance is more open to discussion and you may make new topics to talk about it, this is just a view point and not a bug or sorts, but can be posted here if you feel it is an issue.)

I have yet to experience any others, but I am sure you can find some.

Fixed the mis-spelt names in this post and improved on what I had written.

Can this topic double as a suggestions topic? Because I got a few!
  • A system where you can ally with other player against another alliance. Maybe add allied attacks and allied defenses.
  • Sprites or some sort of animation. No so sure about this on though, really low priority anyways.
  • Add spies that could get you reports of your enemies, including thing like full stats (defensive bonus, offensive bonus, etc).
  • Different classes of units, where some would be more effective than others on different armour. Think in terms of the armour and weapons of StarCraft.
  • Allow us to share resources more freely, like trade men, moves, etc.
  • This expands on the sprites idea a bit. Maybe a picture showing what your base looks like or something
That's about it so far. Maybe I should move this to another topic though.

I'll be honest, theres not much I can do about some of the issues. If I knew how to fix them, I'd be making my own huge uber gosu modules.

Just found out something which is really bad, and so am posting it here.
QUOTE
Your troops inflict 168 damage on the enemy!
The enemy sustains 0 casualties!
Pinecone's forces attack and inflict 15 damage on your army!
Your army sustains 1 casualties!
You defeated the enemy!

So i suffer deaths...that makes sense!
NOT!

Does that to me too. Thats because when you defend, no matter what you're more likely to suffer casualities. It adds a bit of punishment for attacks wink.gif
