Upcoming Changes

First, an issue I feel needs to be addressed eventually. Historically, Promisance has calculated defensive points of your towers based on how many towers your /attacker/ had. I feel that's a mistake. This will be changed in the upcoming round: from now on, you need at least 100 mice to man each tower. This is logical, and as it should be.

Second, some changes involving networth and land. In BFR only, towers will now provide 2000 defensive points. In addition, all buildings will provide 100 defensive points each. Sack will be depowered to 10% of its current value, and the networth calculation formula will be radically changed. The stock market is going down the great Tube.

Er, I thought sack was originally 10 - 15%, and we made it 2%?

Hey, are you going to hardcode sack to be less, or just use the $config variable>

Ruddertail -- Sack was 10-15%, and will now be 10% of that, i.e. 1-1.5% -- as you requested.

Devari -- Yes, sackmodifier.

Ah, ok. Is that what we settled on? I thought we had decided on 2%, but 1% - 1.5% is good. I was thinking 2% was still a bit high, anyway...

possibly make it so that you can choise to have mice, squirrels, [stoats], or otters man the towers? in manage army?

mice eat too much food

Indeed they do.

Please file a suggestion though, I'm not going to remember this topic when the time comes for implementing stuff.

Then again guards are now 2k each and buildings are 100 def pts each. Besides it's only BFR.

If removing stocks hurts indies too much, we'll solve the problem in some other way. However, with sack so low, you should be fairly safe leaving your cash sit on your account. You won't see large quantities stolen.

you cant remove stocks!!! people will just find some other way to store cash anyway and by the time you have finished removing ways to store it then we will be back to normal promisance *laughs*

No, we won't. There are a lot of features that have nothing to do with cash storing. And I really doubt there is any other way to store cash anywhere near as effective as stocks, otherwise, somebody would have thought of them already. Bank, nope, no way. Treasury? No where near the volume needed, and requires two people in a clan, anyway.

We should in all fairness decrease hawk-sacking too.

*Been browsing forums* Yeah, you prolly should. And the Rob Granaries... you don't want the imbalance RWL has. Course RWL doesn't even HAVE a food stealer...
