this game isnt the best graphics but ive gone a long way from understanding variables from loading external files.

this is what happens when you open the game
it will scan and check if you have a saved game.


choosing what troops you want to send:


Saving:
(this is actually 2 pictures)


Moddable:


upgrades:


loosing:


Loading:

Onw thing. How can I lose with 12.3333 troops??? Is that really possible in real life? Are you using a real number? Maybe change to integers instead? Since they don't use digits.

Short, it should be 12, not 12.3333.

Good luck anyways!

I found a bug. If you have, say 1009 clubmen, and use only 109, and lose half of them, next battle you start with 54 clubmen, this is kinda frustrating, since I must use all my clubmen to not lose them. This is easy to fix I prosume.

My solution :

1009, taking away 109, 109/50 = 54. 1009 - 54 (Or whatever number the troops may have been decreased with.)

And another bug, if I have - gold, I can decrease my army size in the buy menu. ("Buy -300 clubmen?")

it says you lose #.333 at the end of the fight
and it will say you have like 10.9999 troops left or somthing like that
but when u go to the next fight it rounds itself down

and in a way it is possible because you can chop a mans arm and legs of and he can still live =)

oh yes of course!!!!!!!!1
i forgot to add the amount you dont send to the amount remaining.
this bug will be fixed when i get home and will add it to the next update

it would be:
number a= 1009
amount sent= 109
numberb=number a-amount sent
calculates fight
` amount sent then becomes the 54
numberb+the remaining amount

Good to hear. Maybe make the game a bit harder?

And I have found another "bug"(?). I can't get longer than lvl 17, or are you still working on new levels?

EDIT : When hitting esc to quit the game (Or I think you are supposed to quit using esc). The whole game goes wild and start spamming the screen with fighting, never ending. I came up to AI 200+.

1.) its easy atm so it is easier to test it, so i can easily test out features without having to be a pro
2.) about the levels, thats odd... its ment to just keep increasing
3.) about the AI, thats ment to keep increasing aswell...
but AI number 200 is gona be realy hard to reach in the final version.
4.) yes i have that problem its annoying i have to:
-Press ESC
-Press the windows key
-Click on another program/anything
-Maximize the game and then click on it
-Windows will say its not responding and it will close

Yes i need to fix this bug but atm its unimportant
just loose on purpose =)

Once ive implemented Popularity
-depending on your popularity level, which is increased by doing a certain amount of fights and loosing under a certain amount of troops, and killing bosses (not implemented yet)
your popularity level will increase
your populatity level means:
-You will get more gold/fight
-Your troops will fight better
-Certain things cost less because people like you more
-you need a certain popularity level to get certain troop types (not implemented yet)

yea so once ive implemented popularity which will serve as an important part of the game, i will increase the difficulty ALOT
atm its mainly bugg testing and creating


nakidno i would like to thank you for your help by making me find all these bugs
keep it up and if my game does go 3D
(which will cost)
youll get a free version

Sounds interresting.

I'm glad I'm helpful.

One thing you can try to avoid the "quit-bug" is making a function that makes the game quit itself, executed by pressing the escape-key.

Something like this :



and execute it using something like this

You sure? I thought § is kestate 1.

Escape is 101, F1-F12 = 102-113.

Did you put the IF statement inside the main loop? That may be the case.

there is no loop in my whole game lol
ive got no do-loop
or anything like that
its just all gosubs etc

do you know how to make a thing that searches through files to load?
im thinking of making a thing where it will save your games without replacing a current one.
then when you load you go through a thing to find the file

simalar to when you go to upload a game on these forums

I did download the Installer and the patch. Both works just fine. I think there are free EULA template downloads somewhere on the net. If you want to use that instead of writing your own.

I found a bug, if you decide to not look for a saved game and press cancel. The program gives me an error saying that it doesn't find the file at line 94.

And another bug, if I decide to not save my game after bringing up the save popup window, it says I saved my game. But I didn't.

To use ViewGUI I think you need some other DLLs. I might be wrong though.

I would like zip version instead of installing and patching the game all the time. Since I delete the game from my harddrive after each version, I really don't like to have incomplete programs taking up computer space.

So a zipped version would be nicer.
