Have any sick highlights for the next version, Jazzimus Prime? Also, we should probably have a new thread.

I *think* I have converted all of the raw files and settings to the latest version of Dwarf Fortress. I still need to do some more testing to make sure it all works. If anyone wants to help out with testing, you can let me know if your old macros still work on the new version: https://arenachallenge.com/dwarffort/df_43_05_arena.zip Hopefully by sometime next week we can start a new tournament if the commissioners are still up for it.

The new arena version still has all the misc creature materials, like 'toad leather' and stuff - do we want to go down to just having generic "leather" material for arena fights to make the logs a little slimmer. EDIT: wow, new version is a lot more brutal, I just tried a match and it got decided by two solid pages of eyegouging. Tunicate fucked around with this message at 04:04 on May 25, 2017 |

New version is VERY fun. Lots of fun ways to exploit the new combat AI, along with absolute brutality in all aspects.

I'm aware that your post was almost certainly a joke but it's expensive as hell to get information security consultants to review a website as part of their job, so if you're willing to do it for free I promise I won't sue you Tunicate posted:The new arena version still has all the misc creature materials, like 'toad leather' and stuff - do we want to go down to just having generic "leather" material for arena fights to make the logs a little slimmer. The macros generated by the site only generate cow leather, so that's not an issue unless a commissioner is willing to humor someone's grudge against a certain creature or a certain (fantasy) race*. *NOTE: Although I am a strong believer in all sorts of free speech, real-world racism is very very strongly frowned-upon in this thread. Fantasy racism against fantasy races, however, is most welcome! Please go ahead and make all the jokes you want about those drat tree-hugging elves in particular. This ain't Elf Fortress, you know.

Would it be possible to add the Observer skill as a purchasable one for this version? It has marginal combat utility.

IIrc, the relevant combat related changes in this version are attack momentum/damage carrying through to adjacent body parts, the AI being smart enough to pull helmets off of unconscious foes before crushing their heads, and weapon and armour degradation, right? Anything I missed?

Jazzimus Prime posted:50,000 dorfbux to you goon sire if you can srsly get SQL Injection to work. I designed all of the database interfaces to the site with SQL injection in mind, but one can never be too careful, and also everything gets backed up to *THE CLOUD* every few hours just in case somebody breaks something, so I'm not going to punish anyone for being just a little too clever. The hosting provider might actually intercept any Little Bobby Tables shenanigans before they even reach the PHP code, but by all means, please feel free to try! *sigh* Arena Plan: Cathode posted:
Oh Cathode, when will you catch a break. I know it's expensive and impractical to get a security consultant to go over things, we have to contract that stuff out where I work. I don't actually know that much about it.

The system's set up to do it, but Toady just defaulted everything to the same LEATHER template out of laziness (much the same reason why melting points used to be so borked until some Bay12 forumite redid them all and sent it in). Difficult to blame him, when he's so eager to get so many fascinating features going - it is just another placeholder.

Wearing ex-gladiator leather is the closest former gladiators will ever come to being properly memorialized.  Jameson the Unruly. You wore so much copper armor, and now it's time for some strangler to wear you.

The macros are all working with the new version, but I think I still have to tweak a few things based on the results of the last tournament, which is something I had never gotten around to doing. I remember whips needed to be improved. jon joe posted:Would it be possible to add the Observer skill as a purchasable one for this version? It has marginal combat utility. Sure, we can do this, and probably make it one of the cheaper skills that a player might spend the last five or ten points on.

quote:Strangler 1 stabs Werewolf 1 in the upper body with her large oaken dagger, bruising the fat through the xlarge cow leather armorx! Some interesting results. Stabbing a person to death with a wooden dagger still takes a long rear end time though.

I still want to implement a ranged weapon revamp. Shoot me the tournament files when it's presentable and I'll see if my modified weapons make an interesting adjustment to the game.

Any plans to remove [SHAPED] from caps so you can stack them with helms again? The OP still mentions being able to put those together in the armour section. Then you can make your opponent pull off THREE things before crushing your skull.
