»SOS Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 (edited) Okey, the credit bot is up for a test run. Doesn't really do anything yet Right now, it gives the JP and flag rewards to you in credits and you can buy scorereset (which also resets credits). Graphical credit counter will come within a week. Time to cook up some items for it. First, maybe a general price guide is needed?Expensive: 100m+Normal: 30m-100mCheap: <30m Here are my item ideas, slightly modified from vol 1 of this thread: BrickCost: 80mRestrictions: once per three minutes per team (=bricks will have to be bought in advance to use several times) 10-second engine shutdown to closest enemy playerCost: 50mRestrictions: once per minute per team; max distance is 0.7 screen widths (700 pixels) Warp a random enemy player to youCost: 60mRestrictions: can only be used if at least 5 people are playing; target player is warned and warped after 5 seconds; once per minute per team Remove anti-warp from closest enemy playerCost: 45mRestrictions: max distance is 0.7 screen widths (700 pixels); once per minute per team Warp 2 random nearby players (including your own team players) and yourselfCost: 50mRestrictions: max distance is 0.7 screen widths (700 pixels); once per minute per team Energy depletion to 2 random nearby players (including you own team players) and yourselfCost: 50mRestrictions: once per minute per team RocketsCost: 18mRestrictions: once per 5 minutes per player Flag coordinates to your teamCost: 5mRestrictions: none Comment & add Edited November 22, 2005 by SOS
XDOOM Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 Will this bot be a seperate bot from the current bot? I would all of the bot functions to be including into 1 bot if possible .... Also, for the anti-remove ... make sure it removes anti to a ship that actually has anti another price: Super
»SOS Posted November 22, 2005 Author Report Posted November 22, 2005 Yeah, all in the same bot, of course Also, for the anti-remove ... make sure it removes anti to a ship that actually has anti. Why? The closest ship. The player has to get close to the ship from which to remove anti-warp. Adds some difficulty in using it, makes it a bit less powerful About super... hrm... yes, why not. How about 20 seconds max, 30m cost? Also, I'm thinking that any "per-team" restrictions should also apply per player (in case he switches team). Yes. Perhaps increase the time intervals as well? 5 minutes where we have 1 right now? Then again, slow credit use makes the defenders vulnerable for a longer time with these weapons... hmm...
XDOOM Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 Another option: 50 bounty increase to all team players ... this will bring their team's ship back fully loaded without having t ogreen ... this is especially important if you are past the team greening limits ... This should be one of the most expensive.
»SOS Posted November 22, 2005 Author Report Posted November 22, 2005 (edited) What do you think of the time restrictions? More? Ok? Less? Edited November 22, 2005 by SOS
XDOOM Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 What do you think of the time restrictions? More? Ok? Less? i dunno, I think that the restriction should be per player, not per team ... and otherwise, make it only 1 or 2 minutes ... because if they want to waste it all right away let em
»SOS Posted November 22, 2005 Author Report Posted November 22, 2005 No, you could spam with the whole team. That's not good. Some of these things are very dangerous when spammable
XDOOM Posted November 22, 2005 Report Posted November 22, 2005 No, you could spam with the whole team. That's not good. Some of these things are very dangerous when spammable Would be as funny as !@#$%^&* too lol ALSO ... new question: are we using credits or points?? I dont want people to loose their points for using this stuff .......
»SOS Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Posted November 23, 2005 I called it the credit bot since it... well, uses credits
»SOS Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Posted November 23, 2005 How about this as well: For the first week or so (November?), bot gives out some credits to playing players every 15 minutes. Say 10 million credits.
XDOOM Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 yeah, I think for testing, have them give it every 15 minutes + for the usual stuff (flag wins) Then since the scorereset will be soon, it wont matter .... then have it just for flag wins/balling I guess.
»SOS Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Posted November 23, 2005 Hrm. The "warp you and 2 nearest players" could be used to byp!@#$%^&* anti. I'll make it not work if you are carrying flags.
XDOOM Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Yeah thats true ... you could warp your own flag carrier away from the action lol ... I thought of another idea 1. Eliminate Steath from nearby ships2. Eliminate Cloak from nearby ships
»SOS Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Posted November 23, 2005 Ok, all items except for flag coords are now working (that one was the most annoying to implement )
XDOOM Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Another idea: Warp to Nearsest Ball for like 10 m credits (may it cost more for further distances)... HOWEVER, if we do this, dont want people warping to a ball thats in a base (or do we ... )
»SOS Posted November 23, 2005 Author Report Posted November 23, 2005 Hmm, the "not in a base" part might be too annoying to implement Anyway, in other news, the current stuff seems to be working so far. All good
XDOOM Posted November 23, 2005 Report Posted November 23, 2005 Hmm, the "not in a base" part might be too annoying to implement Anyway, in other news, the current stuff seems to be working so far. All good TOo annoying ... well TOO BAD What else do you have to do? lol!
