Administrators Alex Posted February 10, 2015 Administrators Share Posted February 10, 2015 I'm happy to roll out the first set of general improvements in some time! First, I've added a dossier to everyone's account. There's a link to it in the sidebar right about the logout link. You can keep notes and things there, and access them at any later point from any computer so long as you're logged in. Second, I've made a small change in the sidebar. It now will display how long you've got until the next turn underneath where it says "Turns are every 2 hours." Third, I've updated treasures. They now last 60 days, and respawn once every 60 days. They're set up so that 15 will respawn in 3 days, and the other 15 will respawn 30 days after that, and so forth. With the mass respawning all at once, that should make things a little more exciting. Pretty small update, honestly, but it's something! 1 Is there a bug? Report It | Not understanding game mechanics? Ask About It | Got a good idea?

Filthy Fifths Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Arrgh where be ye nation perks? Also I'll be hosting a fundraising event in 3 days. Whose with me? "In an honest service there is thin commons, low wages, and hard labor; in this, plenty and satiety, pleasure and ease, liberty and power; and who would not balance creditor on this side, when all the hazard that is run for it, at worst, is only a sour look or two at choking. No, a merry life and a short one, shall be my motto." - Bartholomew "Black Bart" Roberts Green Enforcement Agency will rise again! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Alex Posted February 10, 2015 Author Administrators Share Posted February 10, 2015 could the turns and time be moved to the top left corner,it is kind of annoying at the bottom Interesting thought, it looks pretty out of place at the top to me.

Arthur James Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) Is Dossier a private notes? I like it since I don't have to find my handwritting notes everytime...(it is very useful to me) and the clock is 2mins slower.(doesn't matter as long as it wasn't 1hrs late or earlier) Edited February 10, 2015 by Arthur James Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Server Time February 9 09:53 pm Turns are every 2 hours Next turn in 0:7 Game Date March 31, 1989 Summer: Normal food production Days are every 2 hours could be changed to : Orbis Date February 9 09:53 pm : Next turn in 0:7 March 31, 1989 Summer: Normal food production then just have question marks to click on for the people that miht not understand because they just joined the game 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ELPINCHAZO Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 maybe even just add the time and date stuff to the resource bar? or would that screw up mobile? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don Juan Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) I'm fine with it being on top. Makes sure it's always in the same place. Perhaps a border around it, like the menus? Edited February 10, 2015 by Don Juan Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially Stuff no one will use?

Ace Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 treasures being 2 months still doesn't worth the effort going to war with them. I would make it every 4 or 6 months respawn. ~ " Fighting through the Storm " ~ Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Phiney Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Agree that clock doesn't need to be at the top.also, there's more info provided than necessary, no one needs server date, just the time. And with the turn countdown you can scrap the whole 'turns are every 2 hours' since its obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Greatnate Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I do like the next turn in countdown at the top, even if the rest of the clock data could move. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WISD0MTREE Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 I hate the clock position. And could you add a "You Have Successfully Added Notes" message when hitting the Update button or something. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LadyHawke Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 (edited) Are you considering having an alliance bonus to treasures? That would increase their value. Right now it's more expensive to war to win a treasure than what they're worth. They'll sit and remain untouched as before.

ataraxis Posted February 10, 2015 Share Posted February 10, 2015 Minor aesthetic quibble: when the minutes timer is less than 10 (e.g. 1 hour and 9 minutes remaining) I'd rather see 1:09 rather than 1:9. Also I'm not sure if this is easily implementable or not, but you could make the client timer a javascript clock so that it automatically updates real-time 1 #6 in P&W Beta Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
