Generic Conquest Discussion thread.

Maybe you should, I don't know, make troop gain a flat number (10) instead of something that scales infinitely with itself.

Just my opinion.

Exactly what I hoped to do. Sadly, the console basically says "What percentage do you want troop gain to be at?" which we had to set as 1% as the lowest since it won't allow for anything outside of whole positive integers.

[Waffuru]

If you PM me I can remove you from the game.

So I assume there's no way to just turn off the PM notification? Even globally?

[Kaden]

When I actually cared about the round, I liked getting PMs.

[Pinky]

If you need more time I'll run one inbetween this one and Josh/yours. Especially if you need changes made that aren't covered by the game setup. I don't even know if what you're asking will be possible.

Well, I talked to Josh about it again and now he has me convinced that there is no glitch. Guess I'll just follow his lead and assume everything is a-okay. :B

But what about troop gains being flat numbers? Is that possible?

As for the next game, we'll see if we can finish the fine-tuning tonight.

yeah, editing the gamefilez I can.

Given the choice of receiving them once you've reached a state where you are annoyed by it (but possibly still tinkering with the game itself to test things), which would you prefer?

[Ander]

So are we pretty much at the point where we all just want to start over?

[Belle Hibiki]

Starting over is pretty much pointless unless you fix what was wrong to begin with.

[Ashe]

Well, it will reset on the 15th, but yeah, if we aren't able to get some features implemented, I'm likely to not join the game, as the default features are really unbalanced.

[Vad]

What is required to change the features? Should we make a list of the stuff needing to be changed? I propose that option so whoever does the modifications has a checklist of what we want. Saves time and is just all around easier to implement.

The console won't let you. Any additional features require Waff to code them. Unless its a very quick addition, I highly don't see it taking priority over anything that might be added to the site itself.

Code or not. Make a check list. I'm not new to editing variables and values or coding to that matter. Even if we won't use it. We should make one anyway.

EDIT: I reread this. Came off nasty. Not intended to be Ashe.

I'd rather receive them. I would be more frustrated to check the game to see that I'm missing half my troops and all my gold than I would be to delete a PM or two.

I can see that.

Then otherwise, anyone entering the game can either deal with the PM popups or send a PM to Waff and have him remove you from the game when he has time, I would think.

Okay, I talked to Josh and he said he wanted to wait a while, so you'll have to run another conquest before we release our devilspawn onto the forum.

I'm going to have to ask again: is it certain that we can have static troop gains per recruitment rather than percentage gains? I remember that you said it should be simple, but I never got a follow-up on that. This is rather important for balancing, and I (along with most other players?) would like it if you'd run the next game with static gains so we can see how it works in practice.

[Waffuru]

I haven't done it yet so I can't tell you for sure.

I intend to set static troop gains for the next round.

[Kazuya]

Either that, or up it to like, 5turns per troop thingy. or 10 turns per troop dispersion.
