It Has Begun

I tried to make this its own topic but for some reason it isn't letting me create a new topic. So I apologize.

It seems that if you select two of the same weapons for both offense and defense, it'll negate the offensive weapon and just make it a defensive one. Then whenever you make a mood after that, it will clear whatever your offensive weapon is and make your defensive one the weapon that caused it.

IE, I put a bone spear as both offense and defense. Next turn, it cleared bone spear from the offensive slot and just had it in defensive. I changed the defensive one to a club and bone spear to offense, but it made my defensive bone spear on the next turn and got rid of it from the offensive slot. Only way to change the defensive weapon is to make both weapons the same type, but it has the same problem of clearing the offensive weapon.

lolwut?  You can't clear your weapon selection...

Yeah i got the same problem with the weapons. As soon as you do a move it returns 0 for weapon_o and whatever was in it before as weapon_d. Setting weapons before that returned success:true and message:"Weapon Updated"

Reload / Purge Cache.  The JS was updated to handle some of the new stuff, and if you're still using a cached version, that could be the cause.  I can't seem to replicate this.

Nope, i just opened my browser today with its cache cleaned and also tried a different browser that i never used to play the game before. I still get that problem.

I wish someone was near me...

If you evac all of your land and refresh, you'll wind up somewhere new. :)

The issues you guys were having with weapons is fixed.  Also, ZuckeR, fuck you.  By staring down the actual traffic and posting it, I was completely lost.  Testing with jmcclain1299 proved useful, as he was actually playing the game and not intent (as most people seem to be) on writing bots for it.

Thanks, i just looked up why it did that and this was the only thing i saw and i thought it might help. I did not write a bot for it and don't intend to do so, then i might as well not play the game at all.
 

lol, it's all good man.  I'm just fuckin with ya.  I've already tracked several bots, on a game with 53 players, that's in alpha... :P

OK, thought i confused you with my post somehow.
 

Yeah, seems to be inevitable on a site that is about cheating on games. Hope this does not get out of hand or you might as well call it "War of the Bots"

Nah, I've already started tracking the bot activity so I can learn it.  I'll be throwing in special timers, error counters, and captchas. :D

I can't wait to play this game with a 5+ second delay between actions AND a captcha. 

Sounds like a blast, captchas are probably the best thing about the internet, do you think you could change the gameplay a bit so you get xp for doing captchas? hahaha lol if you actually put a captcha in

The extent of my bot-making capabilities is making simple workflows with Automator. When you need to restart the workflow every 30 seconds, IMO that's less of a bot and more of a less-pet-like Tamagotchi.
