Negative Upgrades

[Redeemer59]

Hey, so for my map, Imperial Castle Defense, I want to implement a difficulty system. And I figured using researches would be the easiest way to do this. So, my question is, can researches 'upgrade' by a negative value to create a penalty?

 

[busterkomo]

Yes, they can.

 

[DragoonZombie]

Why do you want to use upgrades for negative values?
It's easier the other way round.

 

[Redeemer59]

@hvo: Thanks a bunch!
@Dragoon: So, downgrades with positive values?

 

[YoshiRyu]

what dragoon want to say is that you can use the biggest handicap as default and use 2 upgrade:

default: hard
upgrade 1: normal
upgrade 2: easy

but it's as you wish, some people prefer a proper work, even if it ask em more work

 

[DragoonZombie]

I actually meant default = easiest

Default: Easy
Upgrade 1: Normal
Upgrade 2: Hard

so instead of negative, positiv values

 

[Redeemer59]

Meh, I like setting default to normal. But thanks anyway.

 

[YoshiRyu]

when he talk about upgrade, he talk about real upgrade

game is easier with a better weapon/armor, not harder

 

[busterkomo]

I think he means it's going to weaken other troops, not strengthen your own.

 

[Redeemer59]

Precisely.
