TKF Presents:
| -Naval Battle- |
|
Featuring manual based cannon combat like in Sid Meyer Pirates and Corsairs! A nice alternative to standard battleships maps.
| Short Description: This is an intense AOS ship game that requires skills to sink your opponents. Unlike other Battleships maps with autofire with weapons, this map do purely have 100% manual cannon fire in this fun cannonball game. The map also feature ship boarding. Features: AOS/RPG Style: While fighting the enemy empire, you have the option to open the supply route from motherland, travelling outside the main area to search for treasures in the west in the forbidden waters or to the east on the open ocean. Fighting the neutral hostile pirates might give you some extra gold you need to win the game. AI: Practice against AI computers or just play for fun. A complex AI which can provide some challenge, higher difficulty will give them more one time "bonus gold". However AI can't match up with the best players. |
|
| Information: This map has a unique cannon combat system makes this map unique from other ships AoS/Battleships maps you have played where you trigger the shots by your hand and feel the joy when you make a lot of hits. The maps cannon system that makes this kind of a "snowball" game you can enjoy many hours of fun gameplay along with other players. You can try out numerous of tactics such as doing short range tactic for successful hits, long range combat, fire based cannons to make enemy ships burn, boarding tactics, capture empire ships, ramming, trading, exploring hidden areas of the map etc... or you can just focus where the action happens. This map has similar terrain to the battleships maps. Although it has shocking similarity to the battleships when you start the game, most items are remade and all weapon based items is replaced. My main intent with this map is to give battleships a more realistic cannon system which makes this more fun multiplayer game with a slower pace and a much different gameplay from the normal battleships maps For new players, they can practice against computers, as they learn how to play the game by watching the computer. |

could you please reimplement the -help command that displays a global message explaining the basics of the game? also, could you add commands for some of the modes (for example starting cannon forts).
EDIT: my bad on the -help, apparently i wasnt reading and its called -hint

Hey there, I tested your newest version -
* Your map preview and loading screen are kind of ugly screenshots, but the idea of putting a "board ship" in the loading screen is inherently a good one. Maybe consider terraining a high quality version (just for the loading screen) or having someone draw you a picture instead.
* You should make a game mode (alongside no traders, black pearl etc) called "Competitive Mode" which turns on map boundaries and no traders, and maybe a few other things.
* The cannon reloading time research icon is the same icon as the "fire left" icon. Maybe change this to prevent confusion?
* You should reduce the range of sound pitch scaling for "Fire!" because sometimes it sounds like a hamster is yelling it. If you want to avoid making the sound annoying, maybe instead just reduce its volume.
* The training system is inherently bad in my opinion. It adds an unnecessary dimension to the game that basically just wastes player's time and promotes "going back to the base". Instead, I suggest giving each ship a standard accuracy level. This has the added bonus of encouraging players to upgrade their ship - in the current state, the sailor is one of the strongest ships in the game because of its net and its small size. That being said, the stacking weapons and maximum stack levels is a nice addition. I think this is a good first step to promoting ship upgrades.
* Another way to make stacking weapons more beneficial is to reduce the scaling of weapon damages. Legendary lightning cannon for example should only be about 50% stronger than advanced lightning cannon, etc.
* The starter culverine I got didn't stack with the one I bought. That's kind of annoying - maybe make the starter system give you a standard weapon instead of one which is worth something different?
* The camping empire battleships and cruisers.. what's the point? All the do is promote slow gameplay. If you want to include them still, maybe at least remove them in the "competitive" game mode I suggested.
As usual, let me know if there's anything I can help with (vJass etc).
Cheers mate

theres a weird bug with the pinnace involving its suicide ability.. it gives a kill to whoever damaged it last (as in, the empire does 20 dmg as you are sailing in to blow yourself up and then it gets a kill). I guess that makes pinnaces much less powerful? Also, how do ship values work. Are they based on just ship cost + gun cost or something else? I added up the value of my stuff and it came out to about 25k, but the game put me at 49k. And the mode voting at start seems to go by too quickly. Give people a couple seconds to decide!! Also, no offence, but please ignore everything Cokemonkey11 said! I like the game how it is, (as in, training being very useful, weapon damages being balanced as they are, etc. Also, if he thinks the sailor is one of the strongest ships in the game, he is completely right! I think thats a good thing, because ship upgrades are for n00bs. And please, bring back the captains hut. Without captains ability point training, its much more balanced and you have to conserve your points way more. Another thing, is the acid cannon overpowered or is it way too overpowered. Get three of those on your ship and their damage goes from 500 the first time to 600 the second time to 800 the third time as the armor goes way below 0. I once got a cannon fort to -50 armor from full health. I think that the buildings should also be more expensive because the return on a cannon tower is way higher than 2000 gold because if you put up 2 of those you have complete control of the full lane (except for imperial battlesihps and players of course). So thats my rant. If I think of something else, I'll add more.

@Naman
The towers can be destroyed and they are immobile. I think the costs are ok.
The pinnace giving bounty was intended, it did work halfways in all versions but the bounty text didn't appear and the opposite empire got the bounty without anyone knowing. Now the text display works. However I didn't fix the text not showing it with the bomb yet since a different unit kills the hero, not self kill, but the opposite empire gets the gold anyways.
The value of your stuff is the sell value 2x. + ship value
But I cannot add a mode which limit map boarders, cuz that's up the blue player to decide in custom modes atm. I may change this in future versions
You are correct that it might be a bad idea returning back to base to spend ability points. You can let a unloaded crewman to do the same in 1.33.
I readded the Captains Hut in this version. However with only 3 types of special skills which also is visible as buffs on your ship so the enemy may perceive your critical hit bonus skill and navigation skill. The captains hut has an ability which allows you to select when skills your ship will always improve when leveling. However at random you will 20% of the time gain 1+ stats increase when leveling. Atm it must be built by captain, and it does only cost 300 gold.
Critical Hit Skill: 5% pr level
Navigation Skill: 10+ speed pr level
Crew Management Skill: 5 more crew + 7% of max crew capacity pr level

Please tell me where can i buy pirate contact, i move to every point and couldn't find any of it. In older version, i remember it must have a place to
buy it. Also if i want to play boarding style, one footman -> if i buy more = upgrade? or the number of footman is depending on crew stats?
Moreover, how can short/medium range weapon take advantage over long range? The weapon name missle from advance weapon shop , 1500 range with wide area spread, it hardly to counter them with short/medium range weapon. They shoot then we all dead in long range. Need advice , please.

Is there any way to set the autofire to right-click activate and deactivate? Or if not, at least not stop moving?
Also, I'm not sure how it happened, but I ended up stacking more than fifty culevrines into the same slot (on a Destroyer, if that helps). While it is unbelievably fun to blast ships and sea giants into oblivion that way, I'm not sure it's supposed to happen (but if it is, the autofire stopping movement is a hindrance).
And could you please put an explanation of how boarding works in the F9? All I've seen is the ship comes under attack, the enemy crew swings over, and whether you kill their captain or he kills you, everything explodes and your ship dies, even if it wasn't the one boarded.

The pirate contract can be bought somewhere in the forbidden waters. Theres a tinker which is there, but I won't reveal its location.
If you buy more footmen, it doesn't improve boarding combat, since they only have 10+ in battle. Only the best bonus apply once. When it comes to transports fighting crew ability, the bonus only applies 10+ temporary. So if you buy 1 vicious crew and 1 fighting crew, and you get 30+ bonus, you only get 20+ in boarding combat.
I've added 1 new elven ship, with shockwave based abilities. Elven ships does now cover all magic cannon elements in the map.
The captains hut has 1 more ability upgrade now: Ship Hull Skill.
The basic cannons does now cost 800 gold and does a little more damage. They should be much more appealing now. Also increased the costs of medium and heavy cannons, also the medium and heavy culverines. Readjusted the range of these weapons so they also does different damage than before. They should be more balanced now since they did a bit to much damage compared to their costs.

That shouldn't happen, unless you play an older version with unlimited cannons enabled.
I cannot reproduce the bug.

A little suggestion for the items that protect from fire. Currently, it has 75% chance to resist the fire totally. It would be more logical that it reduces fire damage by 75% because with current effect, even someone who is relatively weak can beat a strong opponent with fire weapons, if he's lucky. Having it reduce the damage would make players with fire weaker (which is supposed to do) and not, by chance, useless in a fight.

i somewhat expected that. there may be anouther bug that exists though i have not tested it; crew may be able to buy a tome from ability trainer and therefore crash the game.
also, anouther bug in the terrain is that in the south harbor engineer crew can climb over terrain (via vision given by gaurd towers that are canceled) and open the gate extremely early in the game. i'd prefer that you change the terrain, not the engineers
. I havent tested this on the north harbor.

I think there is a bug with the crews. When you have say 50 crew power and buy a plus 10 crew, in boarding you still only have a crew level of 50. Is that the point and crews only affect non-boarding parts?

then 6 minutes later...
i use the same spell, then
....
.......
.........
2 seconds later i say:
"Ok that was weird"
I Trying to help cause this bug appears almost always
And thanks for this awesome map love the new cannon sistem!!
oh and the short cut to the right cannon is wrong. i think it showld be "D" but i use it with the "E"???
its a bit hard to fire at other ships if i have to click the "E" cause its confusing and i always press D
Anyway Great Job your map is Epic!
You're cool!

For the dreadnought ship: is it supposed to be immune to sail ripper and acid? Also, does it take damage like a building, (half damage from seeker, double from seige) and should the juggernaught have similar characteristics?

Only immune to sail rippers I think. But it shouldn't be immune to poison. It has armor bonus so it will be first reduced before a negative value may occur.
Boarding happens when you buy a grappling hook or have a ship with boarding ability (3500 destroyer)
It simply have more base hp and attack strength. A fighting crew has more hp and attack power compared to ordinary crew at same level. I don't remember but I think it has 60 more hp and 10 more attack strength. Vicious has 120 bonus hp and 20 attack strength and etc...
However multiple boarding crew items or abilities doesn't stack bonuses on top of each other unfortunately. You only get the best crew available in boarding, so buying a vicious crew and fighting crew doesn't stack in boarding situation.
That shouldn't be possible but I will fix it.also, anouther bug in the terrain is that in the south harbor engineer crew can climb over terrain (via vision given by gaurd towers that are canceled) and open the gate extremely early in the game. i'd prefer that you change the terrain, not the engineers
And I won't import music since they will only increase the map filesize unnecessarily.

This is a really cool map.. I've never played something like this before.. Yup! Last hit does take some skill [In Early game only!]
But there are some bugs here:
1. sometimes when I clicked on one of my cannons to change its position, it was dropped out of inventory [for no reason! I thought it just disappeared].
2. Boarding system sometimes crashed like hell, I used the hook to board on the enemy' ship but nothing happened.. also once my friend tried to board on me, but his crew found NO ONE on my ship. [And my screen was still at the sea... with my ship was freezed..]
3. We couldnt figure out the use of Naval Mine except boosting speed
[Formular for getting an easy kill: Naval Mine, Fishing Net, and a Barrage skill]
I also post my ideas for this map here.. [tell you this: This map is really potential..hope it will be world wide famous like DOTA XD..]
1. Some heavy cannons take sometimes to shoot.. It would make it more balanced
2. Extend the map, make lane bigger, and of course, make another lane [because in 5 vs 5, it's really annoyng when farming in a small lane with few creeps but lots of allies]
3. Pirates should be able to respawn for some dudes for jungling! [Being dominated at the sea? Here goes the Jungle.]
4. Can creeps be a little tougher? That would make the farming more challenging!
5. Can ships be divided into classes?
Tanker:
- High HP pool
- Huge space for crews
- All cannon' damage vs structures increased by 20%
- Cannon fire delayed in 0.5 seconds
- slow turn rate and movement speed
- can carry more cannons
- Cannons fire less accurately
- No deck cannon
- More damage taken from magical weapons, less from piercing weapons
Damage Dealer:
- Great movement speed
- High turn rate
- Piercing weapons do 30% more damage
- Cannon fire almost instant
- Low HP pool.
- Low crew maximum
- Great starting accuracy.
- fast weapon cooldown
- Deck Cannon does more damage [It would be awesome if the first 2 slots are for front fire]
- Take less damage from standard cannon/ more from advanced cannon
Supporter/Nuker:
- Skills tree includes buffs for allies [Morale aura (cannons fire faster), speed boost, repair..v..v..]
- All magical cannons fire almost instant, others are delayed
- Cannon' range increases by 20%
- medium HP pool, quite large crew maximum
- moderate speed, turn rate.
- Take heavy damage from pierching weapon, reduced from advanced cannons
Now the game does make some serious teamwork.
6. Some cannons required level and stat to acquire: Is it possible to make this?
7. Can there be a Neutral boss on the sea? A Flying Dutch Man, perhaps! Spawns at the middle of the map and shoot everything on its way..
8. More inventory slots? Who can't agree??
9. Some ships has armour' weakness: For example: War Galleon is weak at the back, it means that if you shoot it at behind, it will suffer more damage.
Well, this is just ideas, it pops up everytime I play the map. I did enjoy it with my friends [I dominated the sea!!
]

When testing this in singleplayer this works out every time and I don't get the bug. The thing is that the trigger doesn't always run all functions when there are more players for some odd reason, and not spawning the other team for some unknown reason. Also there is a debugger but it doesn't seem it defreezes the ship.
Fixing the boarding system is pain, since I spent several days creating the system and its hard to find bugs and improve the system. It takes hours everytime I look in it to find bugs.
_______________
Minor update, only fixing the early gate opening bug
1.34b
Reduced the engineers teleport range from 600 to 500
The engineer should now be prevented to jump to gate switch
The pirate cruiser should no longer trigger the switch
Fixed the wrong dmg from picking starting cannon

I agree on the manual firing scheme.it gives a sense of control rather than firing at every ship automatically
I found a Bug:When I have captured an enemy pirate ship it now belongs to me but when it is boarded by other pirate ships and it is captured My Main boat is destroyed

Is the map maker even checking this place?
We have a bot hosting the map and it would be good to hear from the map maker every now and then to know what is he going to do with the map.

Sorry, but I somehow missed that bugreport. It's been almost been a year since last time I updated and I no longer know my way around the triggers in Naval Battle, thus unable to fix any bugs related to boarding and such atm, and I'm not sure if I'm going to make more updates atm as I'm mainly focusing on other projects.
But at least the fatal error should be fixed. Minor update.
But I've fixed the fatal error regarding captain huts upgrades. If it still occurs, then something else is causing it.
Also added damage taken display, don't be surprised if its above 100%, its shown as 133% with 400 speed without armor or items with damage reductions.
So some cannons like electro cannon will cause 50% cannon damage, and 50% spell damage. Seeker cannon will cause 100% spell damage, while most cannons will in most cases do pure cannon type damage. Normally damage taken from cannons is less or equal than normal and spell type damage since cannon damage is reduced by both armor and spell reductions.
But at least the fatal error should be fixed. Minor update.
| Naval Battle 1.34c Hero ship speed will now impact on damage system Having more than 300 ship speed will now make your ship take extra damage The "Stats" command will now also show your damage reductions Ram ability will now cause spell damage instead of normal damage Rebuilding destroyed spawning harbors is decreased from 8k to 5k Increased the Assist Timer so it should be easier to get assists Decreased bounty received from killing pirate creeps and sea beasts Fixed a bug with captains hut upgrade causing fatal error Minor changes |

Great, that fatal error bug is fixed. Will update the bot map right away, thanks.
By the way there is this little terrain "exploit", where if you build up a single tower, the empire's ship won't sail through, and they will get stucked.
If it's your own tower, you are screwed because you can't take them down or sell them (that could be a new feature too). If it's an enemy tower, just one will be enough to trap the ships while killing them.

Well, in this latest version having sail speed of 500 would approximately increase damaged taken by 60%, that should make it more balanced against players who uses speed to dodge cannon fire and because its very easy to hit slow ships.
Mostly because I don't know of any other bugs that a boarding bug which kills the hero ship if someone boards one of his creep ships. Don't know how to resolve it yet since I must spend a lot of time to find the bug.
Bugs that I know of
Most likely you have encountered more bugs than I know of and I haven't thought about adding new features to the map while I'm working on CC.
If you find any weapons or features to imba or weak, mention it because its a quick deal to change the balance. I have no idea of unbalances atm. Magic based cannons is its own balance category so most likely they may not perfectly balanced.
The projectile system in the map is very old, since I've sorta made partially hashtable based projectile system in CC, this map still uses the old projectile engine which laggs a bit. If I would implement the same efficient projectile system here, I must redesign the damage system and entire cannon firing system which is a long shot optimization, but it gives a much wider possibility with damage types and such and not just same Cannon type damage on all cannons. Especially when I found a way to detect damage reduction caused by armor.
But since at any time there is rarely more than 5-15 projectiles max at one time, its hard to notice laggs.
But I can implement sell feature in a minor update maybe, but next 5-6 weeks I might have extremely bad time so if I'm not able to fix it within this week, then maybe in April.
Mostly because I don't know of any other bugs that a boarding bug which kills the hero ship if someone boards one of his creep ships. Don't know how to resolve it yet since I must spend a lot of time to find the bug.
Bugs that I know of
- Sometimes ships cannot move over some seconds after boarding
- Boarding a creep ship owned by player kills hero
- Blocking terrain mentioned by ForTiNeRo
Most likely you have encountered more bugs than I know of and I haven't thought about adding new features to the map while I'm working on CC.
If you find any weapons or features to imba or weak, mention it because its a quick deal to change the balance. I have no idea of unbalances atm. Magic based cannons is its own balance category so most likely they may not perfectly balanced.
The projectile system in the map is very old, since I've sorta made partially hashtable based projectile system in CC, this map still uses the old projectile engine which laggs a bit.

The map still crashes, there's something else causing crashes too. Could be something to do with the boarding system.
If I may suggest something, you could make Boarding an instant action, using a formula (I don't know, something related to crew capacity and crew power) to calculate which ship wins. This way you don't have to deal with the plethora of bugs and actually make boarding useful.

Yeah not a bad idea. The boarding arena and system is great, but it has way more cons than pros.. like using boarding as a perma stun, when your towers, ships or allies are attacking the enemy.

Well, I'm not to happy to make boarding disabled by default. You can set it to simulated by enabling simple boarding mode which removed the boarding arena. You do it via custom modes menu or -sbm first player command.
Current boarding system do allow 2 ships to board 1 ship, but while normal simple boarding is enabled, that is limited to 1 ship boarding 1 ship at the time. In the old versions it was using this before I made the boarding arena.
It shouldn't cause fatal error since there's no locals there. If so its a glitch. But if you try a game with -sbm and get no fatal errors in 2 or 3 games, then its plausible its connected to the boarding system.
"-stats" command displays how much damage you take.
| Naval Battle 1.35 Changed the speeds of projectiles Increased the speed of slow cannons by 33% (600 -> 800) Increased ths speed of medium cannons by 11% (900 -> 1000) Increased the cost of shell cannon from 1850 to 2400 Gold coins now only provide 100 gold instead of 150 gold Sell building feature added Doubled the cooldown of caravels naval mines ability Nerfed lightning effect damage caused by lightning weapons by 25% Surpassing 275 speed will now gradually increase damage taken Fixed a bug that should remove boarding freeze after boarding |
Main change is some balancing and making fast ships take even more damage, up to 80% more at 500 speed - armor and things which reduce damage. This way a strong fast ship is more vulnerable and take more damage of all types.
Also increased the speed of slower projectiles which should make them less useless since they are easy to dodge.
cannon speeds are now
- Slow -
600800 - Medium -
9001000 - Fast - 1200
I didn't have time to test this version, but hopefully there no bugs to feature changes.

I agree that fast ships should have a downside, but that much extra damage? I'm saying this because the fastest ships are also the weakes in mid-late game, some elvens and of course the merchants.. I don't know if some missions like the "Captives" will be doable with a few tower dmg upgrade.
By the way good news to see it active after all this time, keep the good job man.

I think the new downside adds to the game. However, you should really make an exception for traders.
Also, critical cannons need to have a bigger cost. At least the big ones.
EDIT: I thought it would be worth noting that the lever to the ocean can be hit from the base with a mortar crew. Which, I think, doesn't really add to the game.

There's a problem with the new selling feature, you can sell stuff that's not yours.
Which means you can sell cannons/fortresses from the enemy. Empire included.
Please make a hotfix since this renders the map unplayable against people you don't know.

Hmm not good.
| Naval Battle 1.35b Damage increase when surpassing 300 speed instead of 275 speed Traders only take additional damage when surpassing 400 speed Increased the base costs of critical cannons by 16%, damage unchanged Increased the damage of ice based weapons by 10% Increased the damage of fire based weapons by 20% Goblin flamethrower receives 20% more range instead of dmg change Mortar teams should no longer be able to trigger the gate switches Fixed a bug that allowed you to select enemy/allied towers and use sell ability |
This is also released untested, but hopefully everything should be working well. The fire weapons did only 28% damage than normal cannons including the entire damage over time. With repair they are less effective than normal weapons so I had to buff them since 2 basic cannons was more effective than 1 fireball cannon. Its maybe a bit strong now, but it should be well now with 153% modifier (including damage over time)

Nice one TFK.
Maybe some modes that are tiggered by players votes could be setted up by the host.. like the Black Pearl mode, it's pretty funny but you never get to play it because most players just press Enter when the dialog button shows up

In the older versions black pearl was default in normal mode and it was only disabled only in no black pearl mode. Many complained on it so I made it into its own mode. However its a bit flawed since you probably never get any other modes than normal or no trader sometimes. Might work if ask other players to vote it before start.
I think I keep it as it is, as making it only choosable by the host I'm not sure about it.

I understand, and yes, the only way is to arrange the mode with all players before starting.
Maybe changing de incidence(%) of votes for "non-normal" modes, that's what we do in our map actually. Let's say for example 3 people voted normal and 2 people voted for black pearl, the black pearl it is.. Just an idea tho, no quite sure about it's impact.

Great and fun map.
I really like the vast amount of ships and weapons.
It is a very competetive map, which alot of strategy and awesomenes in it ^^
gotta love the last couple of updates in the map. Keep it up man.
Also, maybe add a small vote for each team, to choose a captain(leader) for the team.
He´ll have the ability from a new building - Captains Office - to call some Reinforcement from the Motherland, but only if the front towers and the 2 side harbour destroyed, And maybe a few more abilities.
There is also need some balancing, but thats not a major thing for me.
And Maybe, someday you can play with me & my friends sometime.

Good mapping but BattleShip Crossfire (wc3bs.com) is better ?

CF is a load of slop compared to Naval Battle.

Don't. BS crossfire is another different map altogether and discussing it here only works in detriment of the feedback the Map Maker gets from this place.

Well said, but I respectfully disagree.
Battleships Crossfire from a game design perspective is one of the worst abominations to ever grace warcraft 3, and comments here with the intention of encouraging TKF to do anything similar to CF would be purely detrimental to his game, and insulting to his experience as a game designer.

Demolishers are too good at hitting moving targets. While they are rather fragile, placing one over a cliff (using crew) or behind a riff early game provides cheap, super effective supression fire. It's almost impossible to get near them with a sailor since they one shot you.
The cheaper missile cannons are also hard to use due to the weird movements they do the first 300 or so meters.
EDIT:
The naval mine item is actually a chargeless Power fuel

Hmm that's not supposed to be. Well I released a minor update to fix it. It should now be fixed.
| Naval Battle 1.35c Fixed a bug with Naval Mine item, it will now create real mines Demolisher should no longer have homing shots against hero ships Speeded up the basic rocket cannons initial birth animations Changed the standard cannons damage to crew a bit lower Clearly indicated what does spell damage in cannons descriptions Added a new stats award: Sea Warrior (includes all creep kills) Winning in boarding combat will give additional 1+ ability points reward Reduced the empire ship spawns bounties with about 10% overall |

Thank you for the quick updates!
You can reach the Sea Behemoth's gate at the ocean from the goblin shop using crew, claiming all the prizes as soon as the game starts.
Screnshot:

EDIT:
Demolishers can also trigger the gate switches.
In simple boarding mode (and most of the time in advanced boarding too) if the process takes too long the stun wears off from the other ship.

As far as I know, there should be no stun in simple boarding mode, the boarding ability itself should lock the other ship as long you want to.
| Naval Battle 1.35d Siege equipment should no longer be able to shoot on gateswitches Put a tower near the ocean treasure gate to prevent treasure theft You should no longer be able to open gates unless taking out the pirates |
The minor version release due to new exploit of gate switches.
