Re: New multiplayer games on longturn.org

No problem in obsoleting warriors once you can build phalanxes. We can do that. With score ranking you mean that the player with best score is 1st, the 2nd is the one with the 2nd best score...? Not sure if I understand it. Removing the migrants would solve some problems but that would also limit th...

Re: New multiplayer games on longturn.org

The scores.

You would want to see the 5 first players on in-game score to ranked to tier 1, the next 5 to tier 2...?

We can try that but since the scores are visible in any case, it remains to be seen what kind of effect this will have.

Re: New multiplayer games on longturn.org

When building a city you can also move the borders with it and that way render the restrictinfra meaningless. The pre-forts do not change ownership so you need at least two turns to build the city, grow it with migrants/immigrants/settlers/colonists and move the borders in order to gain unrestricted...

Re: New multiplayer games on longturn.org

The in-game ranking is not connected the traditional LT ranking. It will only list the players and how they did on the game. This is based on in-game score for practical reasons.

Re: New multiplayer games on longturn.org

Maybe space for 25-30 cities would work for that kind of setup. That might be something like 600-700 tiles / player. The idea with empire_size_step 1 is that you need to develop the cities after hitting certain limit. Without a very hard limit it's not that hard to go for war and never really develo...

Re: New multiplayer games on longturn.org

It's better to have someone "complaining" all the time :) After all these games are for all the players and without feedback it's really hard to know what's good and what is not working that well. What do you think, how many cities / player would result with a reasonable rush to grab land ...

New multiplayer games on longturn.org

After 38 longturn games (+ some smaller ones) there will be more than one game starting this fall. LT39 is a more traditional Longturn game with 23h moves and with more standard Freeciv ruleset. The game will start in 7-8 weeks. LT39 will be a game with continents and the ruleset has been adjusted f...

Re: Longturn input for freeciv-3.0

That stuff I listed on that lengthy message, how are they dealt with in Freeciv-web multiplayer games?

I'm guessing that at least the tc (turn change) actions also affect those games. Would be really interesting to hear about that from the people playing the games.

Re: Longturn input for freeciv-3.0

Has there been some recent issues with longturn support? I remember having discussion about setting the city vision smaller than the actual city work area, but it's really not that big issue. We are using smaller vision for cities to encurage people to actually put some units inside the city. Now it...

Re: Corbeau's ruleset (2.5)

Sounds interesting. Especially changing the siege units for bombarding the cities instead of attacking them. I was actually considering the same for LT40 but decided not to go for it because I was unabe to predict the probabe outcome(s) with such a setting. There is one setting that's going to be re...
