TKF Presents:

-Missile War-

132929-albums601-picture4405.jpg

Short Description:
This is a missile war between 2 ships. (bottom and top area are the ships)
The goal is simple. Build harvesters to harvest energy from energy generators. Build missile launchers to nuke the other ship and destroy the ships energy generators. Build shield booster to increase ships shield power. First one to finish off enemy ships energy generators wins.

This is a classic popular map which is still working with current wc3 version

A very good map, I guess is to have some pre-made AI controlled Patrolling marines to prevent parasite rushes.

There should also be a Defense structure that launches Anti-missiles passively, But you can buy them more en masse at the structure (5, 10, 20, 50 missiles)


Are you going to add a homing script for Anti-missiles? It would be very good, as to remove the waste of buying 100 missiles only for them to go to waste. and it would be very nice for the passive building. (Make the missiles spawn as 5 at a time every 15 seconds as to prevent power missile rushes.)

I'm not going to make marines, btw they will be turned into parasites by the death spores. Also you can use ship control option and multi-phase shields to prevent leaks 100%.

I disagree with the option of massing a lot of missiles, it's only going to lagg much more.

I'm going to add new defensive structure that have anti missile seekers as passive ability, firing 1 every 25 sec. Also this structure will be quite expensive. I'm going to remove to 10 anti missile option due to heavy lagg, and let the 3 and 5 options remain. I find it unrealistic to spit out to much anti missiles, so this is limiting that function. Still, you can fire 5 and 5 missiles quite quickly. But it will require more clicking.

The second upgrade of missile launcher is going to have anti missile seekers missiles, which is more expensive but have a minor home ability. The anti missile seekers I'm going to introduce is also 50% faster than other missiles.

The anti-missiles are going to stay the same, I'm going to add another new anti missiles seekers with homing.

Could you please nerf the death spore shield pierce in late game, since they have a bit more HP, nerf it to somewhat of 40%-45%, As to prevent some oh... 60 death spore rushes.

Jammers are very good, but they shouldn't cost as much! Make the cost 800/1000/1500 instead of 1000/1000/1600.

Don't see a big problem with a lot of death spores, imagine what they wasted spending so much gold on that many death spores.

Jammers do cost 600/1000/1600, not 1000/1000/1600.

I have a few suggestions for a few ship control commands:

Fighters, This launches AI controlled Fighters, They are target-able with missiles, but not Plasma torpedoes, Novilath torpedoes, Nuclear missiles, Anti-missiles, or Photon balls. These fighters can shoot down missiles, and attack enemy shields. The HP is up to you.

Emergency Anti-missile wave, This wave shoots 100 Anti-Missiles, all even dispersed around the battlefield, they kill enemy missiles and deal minor damage to the shield. (I dont care if you add this or not, Shield wave is exactly like this, except with your "Homing" script.)

Board Enemy ship, This ability sends 1 Missile target-able cargo ship, with anywhere from 3-12 marines on it. This has a 75% chance to pierce the shields, and its VERY slow, It's also a large target and collides with missiles. Parasites attack marines. Even if allied.

Good map! definite 5/5.
In that case, fighters could be locusts with weapons.

The ship weapons is unique, so I won't add anti missile weapon. There is shield wave as you mentioned

And this is missile wars, purely missile wars, so I have no plans of implementing any further boarding options.


But ship control have space for 2 more options, but atm I'm not going to add more. Otherwise nice suggestions.


...
@TKF I made a Ship War game with General01 before [it wasn't nearly as good btw, it was our first project and we flounderd a little] I'll try and get an AI working for that. If I can do that I'll contact you again and we'll work out how to add an AI to the map.
I was unaware of that project of yours.

It's up to you to add AI or not. But I can imagine it will be hard to add AI in missile wars, so they don't just build the same over and over again. The missiles doesn't cost food, so the AI must also be triggered I guess.

Thank you.

Atleast you took my suggestions into account. Thank you for that.

Well, Thanks for taking my defensive structure idea into account, but I do have a few suggestions about that.

For the Anti-missile launcher, Why not have it upgradeable? upgrade it to increase the number of passive missiles it creates? or have it as a tech upgrade?

Your right about that ship boarding idea. It should be just missile wars. :ugly:


Good luck with the map, If you need any feedback, just let me know.

The project we were working on died a long time ago, and if I was to continue work on it, I would make it between two [or more] continents or planets. It would be counter productive to muddy the waters with a clone game.
I was planning on triggering it. The AI will probably not be that great, but I can make it OK for tutorial purposes perhaps. I'll give it a go anyways.

This map is very cool. Greate work. But can you create a command to deactivate the controlcenter( the buildable ). Because I'm not a friend of the Earth Crack.

And I think jammer shield tower or something would be a good idea. Then it isn't so cool when you pay 4k gold for a very big missile and then it will turn aorund and comes back.

I did take that into consideration, and nerfed earthcrack. I suspected earthcrack was too powerful, so your comment confirmed that. I haven't added more features. I haven't changed the jammers.

And the plasma torpedo cannot be jammed now.



I have added a new launcher now. Unfortunately it's not available until 20 mins gameplay or tech level 4. Have also nerfed some control center abilities too in order to balance it.


And as I promised:
Homing system!!!

Anti-missile seeker has this ability.

pros: Amazing homing :thumbs_up:
cons: It laggs a little more due to 2 unit groups :thumbs_down:

Well

It lags the game to the point that it stops. IT lags heavily for a few seconds, then it freezes, and ending the process will not stop Wc3, I had to restart my computer.

Alright, I like the -sss command, It will prevent missile rushers, Which always ruin my games, so please introduce that, or a better idea, Double/Triple the shield/shield regen, To help with missile rushers/not-so-good-defenders.

ty for the screenshot. That was strange. I think that will only happen then the death spores get killed by anti missiles or something similar. I'm going to add further more conditions to the parasite trigger in next version, so that doesn't happen in the water.

btw in -sss mode, both shields DO have doubled regen, but it seems like I forgot to inform that in the text message ingame.

Edit_

I fixed the death spore bug and some other bugs. I've also added a new super defense plasma structure designed to own the big missiles, however not strong enough against novalith unless you got dozens of them.

I cannot find more bugs atm, so next update could take some time unless I get bug reports.

The known bugs is fixed.


I added suddendeath mode, which is in reality an ultra short game

However to keep the games not longer than a hour, sudden death is enforced when 60 mins has elapsed. All shields boosters is destroyed and they cannot be rebuilt. The first one to mass missiles wins.

However I did spend a couble of hours adding end game awards when you win. It should encourage each player to focus on special traits. For example if you fire tons of rockets through the game, you will be known as Missile Freak xD. If you used the ship weapons most, you will be known as the games Ship Weapons Officer ect...

Up to 10 game awards.


I'll fix the remaining game awards bugs, such as the ship AI always get the point defense award.

Why not add a save system for the awards. They don't give you any bonus but they put your award name in so it would be like: "Generator Spammer Extraordinaire DrazharLn". Vexorian of wc3c made a good save/load system, The Helper also has info on making one.

Well Good game.

This is a good game, maybe you should add an SLS to help players gather up awards. and when a player loads a code, it should say this.

"(This player) is known to be a (Award Name)"

The Saving should grant the player some kind of bonus, or weakness.

I have another idea for the ship control panel:

Call in support: This ability (Should cost around 10k) Calls in another ship with the same armaments (It shouldn't be on screen) to double the missiles you throw at the enemy. It doesn't launch Nuclear missiles(Please!!! No more Hiroshima's any more!!!), Proton torpedoes (You can choose to exclude this is you wish), Novilath torpedoes (10 for the price of 5! Ahhhhhh!), Anti-missiles seekers(To prevent lag from 100 seekers), Anti-matter charges (So you dont have 100 WTFBBQPWN anti-matters coming at you.), Lasers (So it doesn't burn through a shield with 30k hp in a few seconds), or photon balls (to prevent 72 shield leaks).

Well.... thats it.

Good game.

NO, NO, NO...

I have no plan whatsoever to include a loading and saving system into the map. This isn't a ORPG map or something like that. There's no heros in this game so I don't understand the request save/load.

Awards just shows who did what best in the game. Nothing else. No needs to implement such a "Generator Spammer Extraordinary or something like that" award when using loading system.

This is not league awards, just for a single game. I'm going to add admiral award, the best player award. And I stop there.

Strong suggestion, bit I'm not going to add such a feature.
The ship weapons is unique,...
Other reason. The ships weapons is different from the launchers missile weapons. It's has high tech weapons.


But if I'm going to add more ship control features, it will be 1 more ship weapon and 1 more shield function.

I was thinking on making "water torpedoes", so if it passes through the shields, it directly damages the ships hull and create 1 random explosion on the ship + severe hull damage. But this is just a thought...

Edit_

Update released. I have added the 4th ship weapon, so I hope it satisfy your hunger for now. Also added new victory condition. Rest of the changes is in the changelogs.

EXTREME BUG!!!

When you start the game the endgame statistics appear! And the computer can still get awards.

The bottom ship loses, Immediately, and its not right.

It seems that you failed to specify that peasants must be dead to lose.

You must of messed up the timing when you "Fixed" it for the computers.

The critical bug is fixed!

I'll fix the rest in next ver.

Edit_

And I fixed another critical bug...

Edit_ again...

And I fixed 2 more critical bugs that cause explosion party on the map about 15 min ingame for some odd reason... anyways I killed the problem...

Edit_ again and again...

I played the d version and didn't find any bugs, but I suspect there's a bug lurking that I've overlooked...

Big problem: The new anti-missile seekers can take out novalith torpedoes with a single impact. It makes defense somewhat.. too easy.

I have an idea for the last ship function!

Trietary shield: Spawns a third shield for the ship, It has at regeneration based on the energy in energy pools (It siphons energy out of the energy pools faster), if there is no energy pools, it wont regenerate. the HP is based off the number of offensive structures on the enemy team, (This HP is Tripled if -sss is activated.) This shield will not leak (thus it takes more damage making it not last as long.)

Good luck with this map.
Are you going to continue it or plan on closing up this map soon?

Indeed it was. There were Ways to get around it (Shield wave in particular), but it messed up the game.
That's shouldn't be possible with anti missile seekers. 1 shouldn't be able to rape a single novalith. Shield waves and novaliths should be quite resistant to anti missiles and seekers. I must make the range differences much bigger, cuz anti missile do actually have shorter missile destroy range than the shield waves and the big missiles.

I'll take a look on it tomorrow and create a counter solution to this problem


@ Discohydra

New things have to wait until I cleared all the bugs. I did make a dozens of them when implementing a new system.
Adding another temporary shield layer with shield control with further make the game much laggier, as the current shield detection system do increase much lagg while it's on. The shield phasing, regen and shield boosting is barely noticable, while shield wave produce noticeable lagg. I'm not sure 3rd shield layer is a good idea, but I'll consider it more later....


Edit_

Ok, I have released an update. Earthcrack can no longer be used while the enemy shield is online. It will deal 2400 damage instantly to the shields or initiate earthcrack if both shields are down. It's mainly balance changes and bug fixes, but I've also added the final ship control function.

However there is an alternate beta jass written move script inside the map which is 10% better. There's still bugs with it. Only I can activate it on command.


Edit_

sry about the critical bug in 0.48, I accidentally forgot to turn off the other move script, so it was moving twice as fast. It's fixed now, and I slightly optimized the move script now so instead of looong stop, more choppy laggs should now occur, which is a great improvement.

Edit_

Hmmm... It seems when I update the maps, it will no longer go to the frontpage. Anyway, I added a new missile in the version.

Good

Cruise missile huh? I'll have to check it out.

Last time when we played .48c together, There was a JASS leak in the programming, It caused a gigantic leak in the system, (100k Ram/sec), Luckily i have a good computer (4GB ram FTW) TKF wasn't so lucky.

Ill be testing this newer version. See if the same thing happens again.

The map somehow randomly crashes once either the 20 minute time comes up, or the 30 minute time.
Or, it just randomly crashes

I uploaded a C version, and hopefully the critical bug it fixed!

Edit_

I only fixed the critical bug with the cruise missile, but there is one more fatal bug elsewhere. It's something unknown that always causes fatal error. I'll wait releasing a new version until I found the source of the fatal error.

I'll also add -slowmissiles mode in next ver. Most missiles will use their own movement speed to minimize the lagg in this mode. It's looks weird in this mode, but it lagg much less.

Found the source of the fatal, It occurs when one team loses/leaves.

Theres 2 other bugs.

Cruise missile's explosions splash on other missiles.

Anti-missiles kill in 1 hit again.

I had fatal error in every game I played. But when I won or lose, I did not encounter fatal error.


Also the cruise missile blows up nearby missiles when it get destroyed and cause a chain reaction with other cruise missiles, but I can fix that to prevent a cruise missiles wave go to waste, when the 2 first missiles destroy your entire cruise missile wave. I lost dozens and only 3-4 hit, the rest said boom and a megalagg occurred. I can reduce the damage to 400, instead of 2000 to other missiles.

But how does the anti missile kill in one hit? Against novaliths? With 200 difference in range, that shouldn't be possible, even if the anti missiles instantly pwns other missiles when in their range. This updates every 0.01 second so that is not possible.

I attempted to remove all traces of fatal errors in 0.50c

Did you find more???

Tell me what was going on when it happened? I need to know to eliminate all sources of errors which can cause fatal errors. So far I haven't had 1 single fatal error in 0.50c, perhaps I'm lucky.

I've also implemented mothership, so I could have created fatals there as well.

Ralle has initiated a new rule for map updates, so this map will now be far behind in the map list.

Suggestion!!!!!

Have a new defensive building. My ideas for it are....

A building that costs 1000-5000
It passively launches DEFENSIVE missiles.
You can change the amount of missiles launched. And what type.
But you cant control the time between launches.
You can choose between anti-missile (Dummy) OR Anti-missile Seeker.
You can launch between 1 and 10 missiles.
The time varies with what kind of missile and how much.
The structure can be upgrades to reduce the time factor.

I'm pretty sure that one of them occured just as I was placing an energy manager, as well - but there were six players in the game, and it could have been anything.

We also just had a fatal error while I was placing shield boosters, although that might not have been what caused it. It also seems to only happen when i'm hosting, so it might just be me.

The crashes occured within 10minutes of the start of the game. There were no large battles and there wasn't much lag in any of the cases. My computer was acting weird that day however, so it may have been that.

Crash = fatal error? Or did YOUR computer crash? Early?

It seems to be General01's PC that does it, we had a game with me hosting, it was laggy as hell, but it didn't crash.

EDIT: both of us use windows btw
So was that early in the game?? If so, did anyone invent 20min tech early in that game?

I also use windows and so far not experienced any fatal errors in my games in 0.50c version. I thought I eliminated all the sources for fatal errors.

Maybe, but that would only be a passive one with no advanced features and only 1 missile. The reason why I removed the anti missile passive fire from nuclear launcher was to reduce the superb defense.

I was thinking on a drone station which send swarms of anti missile drones to attack the missiles (locust). However they don't have so much firepower, so they only effectively destroy a swarm of cheap missiles. The current defense is inefficient against a lot of missiles, same goes with anti missiles. Jammers are super effective against expensive missiles, but no defense is effective against 200 missiles. The only mass defense is control center, but you must have enough mana for the right time. Also the lagg make it impossible to use it at right time.

________________

Edit_

I've updated now. The main change is the new control center ability, otherwise just minor stuff. I hope you enjoy Gravity Vortex. It's the new weapon and kill absolutely all rockets whatsoever numbers xD. Since I haven't got help with the drone system, It's suspended.

Yes, they were all fatal errors of wc3, early in the game. It may well have been a result of what my comp was doing, of course - I didn't encounter any errors like that in the games of other people.
I note that my gunboat idea grew on you as well ;D

It was Exilus5 who made Ship War 1.6. I got his permission to continue the missile war map.

_______

Edit_

I'll work on balancing tomorrow, regarding the Razor Blade. It will have it's hp halved, and less duration. I'll see about the price. This is a intelligent missile, which doesn't die like the ordinary missiles, but goes on a killing spree once it reaches the ship. After killing the living, it begins to tear down buildings. This is only available in -nds mode, but will nerf it in upcoming b version.

Edit_

I have now balanced the razor blade. It has low hp and it's easy to defend against it now. If a razor does get through due to lack of defense, well it's your fault that is slices up your harvesters...

Seriously I'm out of bugs. No update until I get a bugreport. I'm also no longer adding more stuff to complicate the game. Some players dislike the many options, for example research (-noresearch (-nr): Techs cannot be researched and becomes available over time). However I'm going to release a "final version" (or rare new versions), but I'm not going to do it without some bugs to fix. So if you find anything, report to me.


I'm stopping working on missile war atm. I'm working on my latest project: High Seas Battle. I may also rename the unfinished project which is 30% complete. I'm using skeds BS map as a terrain basis (I hate do the terraining myself). It's a BS AOE type map with the same cannon system as in Uncharted Waters. Here you buy different cannons so you can fire different cannon types and special weapons at your enemy. I've also added a crew system, which allows you to capture ships. I've disabled the ability to capture other hero ships by natural gameplay reasons....

Edit_

I'm tired EXTREMELY of this map now, so I need variation and close this project now and move on to my latest project: Naval Battle

Crash Bug

I don't know what it is, but the very new version will crash my game every game at 4:40 minutes in, and it's just this version all the others didn't. I used the modes -hi -b -nds -sss -nb if that helps at all....

If that repeats, let me know. Did you also use -sm?

No i didn't, i only used the ones i stated above, but i think the crashes occur from canceling the construction of shield generators (Played again and crashed from it)

Well, I can't fix that problem, otherwise I must rework the entire system (takes minimum 1 week of my life; NEVER). I can't fix the fatal error issue with canceling shield booster under work. It's someone aborts a booster under construction, they use a weakness in the shield system which causes fatal error. Though it sometimes does not create fatal error, but eternal leak hole instead from the weakness of the shield system (200kb ram usage increase pr second increase). So when you play 1 hour, you warcraft uses 1 gig ram, + other unremovable leaks done by GUI. It shouldn't must not surpass your available ram, otherwise your computer will be very slow.

Same reason why I implemented enforced sudden death after 1 hour. Even guys with the best computers in the market today experience 5fps in 1 hour game (I have 0.3-0.2 fps).


Due to the big systems and several demanding subsystems, there is unfixable leaks which causing it. All location and group leaks is fixed afaik. but that isn't sufficient and good enough for missile war with it's heavy systems.

Super computer recommended.


Also I need a new version of WEU, since the new warcraft patch makes further edits impossible with this editor! (Items system). Then I can resume my work on missile war again...

It's not time based, it's building based. The game modes don't matter with the bug. I found the bug today, but have no way of handling it. I told TKF about the bug earlier today in a PM. The bug works like this:

Affected buildings: "Energy Manager" (the basic one you build, not any of the upgraded ones)

Trigger of bug: Interrupted construction

MEANING: If an Energy Manager is under construction, and the construction is stopped for ANY reason, the game will crash for everyone in the game room. It can be interrupted in two ways:
1. The building is under construction, and you cancel the construction
2. The building is under construction, and is struck by a projectile

I am not fluent in the workings of the map editor, so I can't tell how this bug arises or can be repaired. If TKF can find the cause, it will be a big relief to all of us who play this map...
Still, I wonder why so few people comment on it...


I would also like to say that this map is just AWESOME! The lag is a bit severe at times (even with -sm, but it helps), but in most other aspects, it's amazing. With this final crash bug fixed, the game will become as close to perfect as it can get. Exilus5, TKF, great job on this one.
