Server changes

Because of a bug some of the upcoming changes were released earlier than it was planned.
These features were tested on test map but accidentally some of them were enabled for all.
Sorry for that.

Here are the new changes:

Different buildings capacity:
40 - farm
75 - round tower
125 - square tower
200 - small castle
300 - big castle

This applies only for new buildings. Existing have still capacity 300.
In the near future the existing buildings capacity will be adjusted to these numbers so be prepared.

Tower missiles
There will be soon 3 different types of missiles for tower/castles.
  • fire missiles - 150% damage
  • stone missiles - 100% damage
  • arrow missiles - 50% damage
You need to craft and put stone or fire missiles into tower/castle. Each missile item is used for 30 shots.
If there are no missiles then the tower shots with arrows (unlimited).
To craft stone missile you need one stone, crafting chance is 100%.
To craft fire missile you need 3 carbon ingot, chance is also 100%.

Fire missiles are used if attacker HP is 3 times bigger than tower STR. Otherwise the stone missiles are used (if exits in tower storage).
The formulas can change. It will be enabled in the near future but you can already start supplying your buildings.

Drop fix
If player who dealt the most damage logout or die before the monster will be killed then the drop receive the next player.
Before nobody got drop.
It is already enabled.

Towers remember attacking clan.
If player A from clan AA attacks player B from clan BB then all towers from clan BB attack all players from clan AA.
The towers remember this until next server restart. Server is restarted every 24 hours.
This was accidentally enabled for everybody before the tests completed and before it was announced.

thx for the info.

one idea maybe. let duke switch off attacking towers.

clan a and b are alied. they war clan c.
clan c bribes a low member of clan a or gets a spy in and let him attack clan b.
suddenly clan a towers will attack and decimate their allies. and since allies often build next to eachother they might not even be able to get to their own buildings anymore.

this autoattack is far too easy to exployt for a spy.
duke needs to be able to stop towers from autoattack.

Its a huge step to balancing buildings, but not last; rear. Be patient! ;)

Just for note, 1 missile is 1 minute of nonstop attacking. So big castle full of fire missiles is 5 hours of nonstop x2 Damage attacks ;)

true i like my small raw. but u need a lot of builders nowadays.
but its still strange to give the keys of the cannons to a lowely soldier lolĂ 
anyway. would it be posible to build for a duke to control this? thats more realistic.

or. maybe the much discussed ally system is comming and u can set ut not to apply to allies
(dream dream, hope hope).
