The Darkening Wars v1.42

[Angry_Bovine]

cool new version- testing this asap.

u rlly do make versions rlly fast bovine- thanks alot!

Hah, no problem. I keep them coming as long as there are fixes to be made and features to be implemented-which means, expect lots of new versions!

 

[Racoon]

k i played and got bug- not srue why but it might be related to mutants again- one mutant player left for no reason(he was doing fine) and then 20 sec later the game force quit- not fatal errored- im not sure if i pressed a hotkey(i dont think so) for force quit.

heres the replay attached

also, whenver the mutants build mutators or mutation pools dunno which one, u see a gold mien icon on the map pertaining to its location- this kinda gives away the postion of the mutant player

Force quit? So it wasn't a crash? My friend and I were led to believe there was some kind of problem with the leaver trigger, though we were unsure what. I'll have to fix it.

As to the gold mine thing, that's weird and annoying. The gold mines just randomly pop up at times. How are you managing to play this with people? I didn't know Battle-net players were so receptive to... new games.

At least the standard of fatal error (besides the leaver bug) is... no longer standard?

 

[The World Is Flat]

I love the map, but i keep having power troubles with the secondary upgrade structure(i forget what it is called) , it never gets enough power.

 

[Angry_Bovine]

I love the map, but i keep having power troubles with the secondary upgrade structure(i forget what it is called) , it never gets enough power.

There's a power problem in general, where the power generating structures seem to hoard power they don't need. I'm revising it so they're a little more generous, so it shouldn't persist.

 

[FrozenFenrir]

tested it yet again, the slow bug has been finally removed(thanks alot...)
but my mate(we've tested it in a priv game...he took my units easily down cause i couldnt see his scout helicopter due to that huge sight=/) could always attack my from a very large range and its kinda gay u cant see them due to the small range of sight of the mutants =/ so i would appreciate some kind of scout with a big range of sight for the mutants!
also...your anti-weather code(havent tested it in 1.36 but in 1.35) -towe doesnt really work...my units still had the light snow effect =/

Thanks for reporting in again. I know the weather removal doesn't work, but it completely slipped my mind to fix it.

In general, the mutants have sorta lame anti-air... I'll work out a fix for them so they won't get harassed that badly by just a scout helicopter.

 

[The World Is Flat]

glad you are fixing it, the machines seem a little buggy... the power flow-thing stays up even if you change the power supplying unit... but you probably know this... thanks for the great map!

 

[Angry_Bovine]

Oh-a power generator can supply power to MORE than one structure. That, my friend, is working as intended. To disconnect power, use the ability again on a structure it is already targetting.

After coming back to warcraaft 3 after 2\3 of a year i look at altered mele and i find my favorite game at top iI think yay a new ver so I download play with my fav race (Humans) to find out that the new squad system suck i wan't to switch to another unit in the squad but i can't why have squads if you can't switch units!´

AI why is it gone?

Squad system - What do you want from it? If you want a feature, just ask. I'll see what I can do for it-if it's trying to use abilities on all of them, that's something that's in the works right now.

AI Disappearance - Sorry, mate, this one had to go for the moment. It had 2 problems going for it: it took up way too much space on the map which was not removed by optimization (600 kb?!) and the fact that it crashed the map after a few minutes of play. Of course, I'll try to salvage and reprogram. But for now, you'll have to play multiplayer.

It's great to hear from you, though. Just keep watching for updates!

 

[The World Is Flat]

Ah ok i get it, but what about only one power supply to a building? thats what i meant, is it not a feature that a building can only have 1 power-supply at a time? so why does the power-line stay up after another building takes over?

 

[Angry_Bovine]

Oh, you can have many buildings powering one building or vice versa; you can really have a network of power lines connecting everything. But it won't work really well-my current system doesn't handle anything more than 3 connections too well. Wildly connect and overload at your own risk

 

[The World Is Flat]

ok but it said only one connection per building
and lol i had 2 nuclear power plants and 4 generators trying to power 1 building and it never powered on...

Ah, sometimes my tooltips lie. I sometimes change things and forget to fix the tooltip to reflect the change. Another thing to put on my list of things to do...

 

[The World Is Flat]

ok btw you map is great! 100/100

 

[Angry_Bovine]

ok btw you map is great! 100/100

Thanks! That means a lot to me, and same goes for anyone else who has said anything similar to that. This map wouldn't be where it is right now without you all.

Hell yeah, TDW has made top 20! Thanks for making this possible!

(Perhaps this is shameless advertising, perhaps it's not, but vote 5/5 if that's what you think!)

 

[The World Is Flat]

hehehe, it reasonable advertising if you ask me, because thats what the map is, a great piece of work!

 

[janshaan]

The basic mutant units can see invis, they just can't see invisible that far. I'll tweak some stuff. As for the stuff that's not yet developed: It's just the 3rd race that's still under the works. I built this game one race at a time; first it was just humans, then it was humans AND mutants (and the mutants had to be built from the ground up). After muties were mostly finished, I added the machines. I'll do what I can for you, but you'll have to give me time. As long as you keep up the feedback though, you can expect to see responses and progress from me.

I take it it's not crashing at least?



Thanks buddy!

ty for that and btw something I forgot to mention earlyer is that
1 when one person d/c the game fatal errors
2 I think that machine towers are either imbalanced or mutant units suk becouse some1 ran about 30-40 mutant units (alot of different types) into machine towers and didn't even kill one.......not even one???........... after that I sent about 12 assault infantry units and 6 of each type of tank the machines have (there are only 2 types.) and that killed about 2-4 towers ..

PS: this will be a great game when all the bugs are removed xD 5/5

Thanks man! I'll get to working on those things. Imbalances/game reports are good; the better you can describe them, the better I can fix them. Hah, funny, I already nerfed the Machine towers; I'll have to nerf them again, I guess.

 

[The World Is Flat]

ok here it is 5/5!

 

[Angry_Bovine]

ok here it is 5/5!

Thank you very much, and here is version 1.37. I have a few more changes in mind before I want to let the version sit...

 

[zeldarules28]

When I open the map in the editor it says Not enough storage available to process the command but my computer has pleanty of memory because its new. Does anybody know how you can fix that?

 

[janshaan]

maybe it's supposed to be like this, but machines and mutants can only build buildings within a certain distance of their main base...and that's very annoying when you have got an iron deposit nearby...it's also very hard for mutants and machines to build oil factories. This is because it is very hard to see what is just part of the terrain and what is an oil patch..(if there is supposed to be any)

whereas for humans you have a builder and can place your cursor (unbuilt building thing -which is your cursor-) anywhere until it lights up.



I just saw these in the new patch xD.

-When selecting where to build your structures, a brief flash of blue indicates the area where you can select-

-When selecting where to build your structures, a brief flash of red indicates the area where you can select-

well i havent played the machines that much but i can say that mutants dont really need iron(2 iron deposits are more than enough for them)
and its not "hard" to build oil factories...cause they HAVE NONE.
they get oil when their menu lvls up...or by your mate(if you have one)

I added those exactly so that it would be easier to see the extent to which you can build. However, the majority of your inquiry is answered by the next fellow:

and its not "hard" to build oil factories...cause they HAVE NONE.

...who happens to be completely correct. Mutants are NOT your standard resource gathering race. Just level up your mutation menu to gain additional "oil" (they really use it as evolution points, but I can't really rename it for just one race) which they spend to research evolutions.

 

[zeldarules28]

Ok I have a problem. When I open the map in the editor it says "Not enough storage available to process the command" but my computer has pleanty of memory because its new. Does anybody know how you can fix that? I WANT TO PLAY THIS MAP BADLY!!!

Ok I figured the problem out.

Also I found a glitch (I think). I was playing as the machines and I trained a squad of mech commandos. I moved them around the map a little and they all piled on top of each other so they looked like only 1 unit. Its kind of annoying but it probably doesnt matter that much.

 

[janshaan]

ic, well that makes it easier.ty xD

 

[janshaan]

Your skills don't work..eg: you can't use them you can pick them,but you can't use them. whats a mutation menu?..
Your rally point does not work at lest for the mutants..you said everything will go there, but nothing goes there.

The population system for mutants suk because no other race has it.
they also can't chose what they spawn? it's totally random.

If the only way mutants gain wood is by upgrading their rank then they will be way behind every1 else in tech. Machines and humans max their tech and start building high tech units in like 10-20 mins, after they have set their resource structures down. Mutants also can not get all their creep research. this is because when they reach lvl 20 mutation level they stop getting wood and because the more population they have the less resources they get.
-more pop less resources only happens to mutants-


When the death scourge devours stuff it does not heal it. I'm not sure weather this is a bug.

 

[janshaan]

btw the above post is for mutants

 

[shadonavan]

Well i played recently(might have older version of map) but i attacked a machine base and got ANNIHILATED! i had some 75-100 units. i think i managed to get to one of the towers......didnt kill it but GOT TO IT. i think the guy massed the towers not really sure but yeah i think this version was from about 2 weeks ago so if its been fixed just tell me to stfu cus its better in this version!

 

[Angry_Bovine]

Mm, lots of issues to address. Here's my responses:

I always thought that rally points worked correctly. I guess not; it has to do something with my squad system. I'll look around. Also, for the mutation menu, it does NOT have abilities, and neither does the Spectral Command for Machines. They won't have abilities until I get the time beyond bug fixing and working on my other map to implement some additional abilities.

The population system for mutants suk because no other race has it.
they also can't chose what they spawn? it's totally random.

Working on a method to make it a bit more controllable. Either I overhaul the mutant system and make them train eggs/units (which I don't want to; their system is unique although it needs to find a balance) or I just make it 100% chance to spawn 1 of a unit per egg. So, for example, researching Plague Carrier, Gene Stealer, AND Slaughterers means a squad will always be one Plague Carrier, Genestealer, and Slaughterer (and no more corpse feeders). That, or maybe if you had some idea of what you wanted to see. The basic premise was that if mutants spawn enough, the random becomes less random and you get your units.

If the only way mutants gain wood is by upgrading their rank then they will be way behind every1 else in tech. Machines and humans max their tech and start building high tech units in like 10-20 mins, after they have set their resource structures down. Mutants also can not get all their creep research. this is because when they reach lvl 20 mutation level they stop getting wood and because the more population they have the less resources they get.
-more pop less resources only happens to mutants-

They gain additional oil through destroying buildings. (Pillage?) This was always the reward for mutants; mutants cannot sit back as easily and just "tech," per se. You have to have a more active role in finding your opposition to quickly tech. Also, though, the fact that mutants can't get all their research is WORKING AS INTENDED. You're supposed to be able to unlock all but one or two techs, which will then become unlockable if you pillaged enough oil for it. However, I'm alleviating a lot of issues with mutants in the next patch, including both their rush strength and their ability to tech. Read the paragraph at the bottom for more information.

You did catch one unintentional issue, though: I was wondering why the gold display of fungals disappeared. Now I realize that it's after you have 30 food. Changing the way fungals work so that it's always 100%.

When the death scourge devours stuff it does not heal it. I'm not sure weather this is a bug.

Uh, I'm not certain either. I can tell you honestly that I've never used it in a real game (1v1). I've always broken my opponent with a rush. Of course, if you read on, you'll know what I want to do with muties.

Well i played recently(might have older version of map) but i attacked a machine base and got ANNIHILATED! i had some 75-100 units. i think i managed to get to one of the towers......didnt kill it but GOT TO IT. i think the guy massed the towers not really sure but yeah i think this version was from about 2 weeks ago so if its been fixed just tell me to stfu cus its better in this version!

stfu

Hah, that was fun. I tweaked machine towers to take an average of 3-4 shots to kill a mutant instead of 2-3. I'm going to try to discourage massing, and slow it down by adding Machine Shop as a requirement. Right now, machines boom a little too well (with the upgrade I gave them to harvesting), so I'll be messing with the numbers a bit more.

In short, however, you'll need to have Tier 2 mutants (acid spitters) in order to really deal with structures and vehicles. Ever see just normal zombies getting past a fortress? Neither have I. Well, this next patch should be good for you (1.38); there's a bunch of "renovations" for mutants that make them have a few more choices early game, and their EXP drip is increased so that they can "tech." Their starting resources have been increased slightly beyond the meager amount, so that you actually have enough early on to play with; whether you want to "tech" or rush, or even resource (although this optional is really hazardous; mutant resourcing is quite a bit weaker intentionally).

 

[shadonavan]

lol i was wondering if you would tell me to stfu and you did !!!!! HAHA anyways i love the mutants they are my favorite race to play with plz finish their tech tree i want the big units!!!

Edit
Oh yeah i got an idea. put all your update notes into one thing just have

{current update}
added blah
fixed blah
balanced blah

[older versions]
{version blah}
{version blah2}

That way it takes up less space on the main page!

 

[Bumkt]

I think you should just not deal with squads tell you finish up races. Also the hive misplaced some spores twice.

I might do that. I'll have to store the older versions somewhere else tho...

I think you should just not deal with squads tell you finish up races. Also the hive misplaced some spores twice.

Oh, I know why and I already fixed it in my latest version. It's because placing it >1200 radius in version 1.37 makes it pick a random spot instead.

And responding to an earlier comment I didn't think about enough at the time: Humans get taxed for supply usage. Mutants do not. Machines don't use supplies.

Edit - Yes, I know there's a bug. I won't say it so it won't be abused, but don't be surprised if I'm like "I know that already" to this bug.

 

[zeldarules28]

I think I found anther glitch: The hive placed a repears lair ina place where I didn't place it. It might be the same problem mentioned by Angry_Bovine (above).

 

[shadonavan]

Sry for wall of text!

well my favorite race(mutants) is ferkin up again! for whatever reason it kept putting the things that give food in control of squads. its great to have your food suplier with no attack be the leader of a squad of good units.......anyways not sure if its a bug or what but it made me want to cry until i upgraded the food guys to those ones things then uber pwnidge!!

But on the bright side food didnt screw up in this version WOOHOO

Oh but i still got fatal error. not sure what caused it i had just reasearched the titan demon strand and it MIGHT have been that one popped out of one of the egg things and crashed the game. not sure what cuased it i know i had just about every unit the mutants can get and game didnt crash until i researched that bout 3-5 minutes after. had been playin the game for.....45 minutes give or take.

Oh as much as i hate to say this mutants if done right DOMINATE late game. like this guy didnt stand a chance. i had 12 units assined 1-0 on numbers(thats 120 units guys 12 for each number) and thats not including those units squad.by the time he killed....1/4 of them they had already spawned back at my base so i could just keep sending an endless stream of mutants. i had the fully upgraded main base. like 3-4 of the buildings that spawn egg things and then i think 5 oh the hives. so yeah my food cap was constanly full and no matter how many units they killed the couldnt keep up. Needless to say i won! oh right and i forgot he had killed about 1/2 my units by the time i killed him and someone else attacked my base while that was going on and i killed all their units WITHOUT HAVING ANY DEFENSE BUILT!!!

Well ill keep you informed if i find anything else out about mutants they are all i ever play....

A suggestion, would be that units auto spawn, but you get to chose what "genes" you spawn in each of your hives/main base. the same way you get to chose weather your "Genesis Obelisk either casts a energy web or a vigour web."

 

[The World Is Flat]

good idea, but why not still keep it unpredictable? that is one of my favorite parts about the mutants, no how about some sort of gene... family? so if you choose this all of your spawns will be from this group? i dunno, just an idea...

 

[Angry_Bovine]

I sort of have an idea of where I want to take mutants, like in this latest patch. You can control specifically what additional units you get from the Mutation Pool (like the Overbeing and the Hellfire Imps). More of these types of units will be made in the future, and the strength of some of the existing auto-spawning strands will be decreased to put an emphasis on directly player created units. That is to say, sort of making the auto-spawns the minions and the player-selected creations be pseudo-commandos. It's like in L4D: the normal minion zombies (fodder) versus more powerful zombies with traits (smokers, boomers, tanks, witches).

Walls of text are fine. The more informed I am, the better I can improve the game. So, thanks!

Food Unit (Crawler) Control Squads - I could've sworn that I fixed that. I'll check again. The no food mess up is good news, although I've never bugged it myself.

Titan Demon Strand issue - Hrm. I've never encountered this, but I haven't reliably gotten this strand often, so I can't really say for certain if I know it's the cause. I will test him out, then, to see if he's causing problems.

Dominating late game - That depends on your opponent and what they tried to do. It depends on their race, their build, etc. Especially against machines, I can see you having a dominating endgame. The good part is you mentioned "if played right," because that is of importance. If a player were to counterattack you at the right times, I'm sure they could cause sufficient damage to slow you down a lot. Mutants take much longer to recover from infrastructure/structural destruction than any other race, because of their weird resource system. (Replacing a simple Hive takes as long as two minutes, and to be honest, Mutant Upgrades are destructable and have to be recreated.) So, take it as your own victory for now unless mutants are consistently coming up as victors.

I'll say this though-the exp drip is just a bit too fast for what I had in mind. I'll see how it goes though.

One problem that I myself have with the mutant race is the LACK OF TEAM COLORS in the beginning of the game. You can't even tell who's winning/losing the battle cause blizzard's zombie model has no team colors. I do believe it's time for a model swap; I've gotten past the phase where mutants = zombies. It's time for them to make accept a change and embrace it. That's all I have to say for now... look out for version 1.40.

EDIT - A question for you all. Through what system are you playing other players? Battle.net? Garena? Hamachi? I'd like to know.

 

[The World Is Flat]

B.net for me, occasionally. but mainly LAN.

And i'm glad all of the bugs are being worked out, i honestly have only played short 1v1 LAN games with my brother so i don't get nearly as many bugs... and yes, i'd like to see some different mutant models, one question:

Were the mutants all humans? and if so, why do some of them look like giant worms now?
or if not, why don't you make them look like the creature they evolved from? or if they are just totally crazy mutations why don;t we see some things like the carnifex models? that would be cool to see...

 

[zeldarules28]

Ok I think I found another glitch. I was playing as machines (my favorie race). I realized that if you click and drag to select units, you can select the NR-C1S Assault from a distance. Its just kind of wierd. Also my central nexus was loosing 7 mana a second but it wasn't powering anything or building stuff...and then the game crashed. Still, the game is fun.

Ah, I see. I play LAN too, though I have waaaaay too many dota-addicts to reliably get a game of one of my maps.

Now onwards to the lore questions...

Were they all humans? No. Some were once humans (Corpse Feeders and Plague Carriers, for example, and even the Slaughterer and Gene Stealers). Others were not, such as the Carrion Crawler, which was once just a normal worm. However, they've been "tamed" by the Mutants into being what might as well be domestic "cows." They secrete chemicals which keep the mutants active and alive. Some, such as the Acid Spitters, are just crazy mutations. Why don't we see carnifex type things? Mainly, map size limit. I've nearly run out. I barely have enough models nor room for machines. If the limit were raised to 8 gb, I'd definitely include things like that. But for now, you're stuck with mostly ladder and campaign warcraft models.

 

[The World Is Flat]

Ah, yes the famous size limit. alot of really good maps could be made awesome if it wasn't for the size limit... oh well. still 5/5 i play the map on average 1-2 times a day.

 

[Kamikaye]

You seriously have to fix the fighting system crashes. I attacked a human Vulcan Canon with 4 medium robots and the game crashed with fatal error.

 

[FrozenFenrir]

tested the new version and i have to say...the mutants finally can crush some ppl =D
BUT!
the mutation pool (the one where u can buy overbeeing and imps)
can be seen by ALL players!!! regardless of ally or unally status!! also, they are able to buy from your pool =OO so they can spawn monsters in your base (they dont do much but your enemy sees everything...)
also, my mate managed it to KILL my menu with a light artillery =O

i tried to make a real game in bnet but shortly before it started to get fun the map crashed again =(

You seriously have to fix the fighting system crashes. I attacked a human Vulcan Canon with 4 medium robots and the game crashed with fatal error.

Crashes? Still? I'll look for it.

Yea, that was the bug I was talking about. It's fixed. HOWEVER, the artillery thing is damned weird. I'll make the menu invulnerable..

And for your crash, what happened? Can you describe what was happening (like the previous person)? The more detailed the better. Then you'll never see that bug again.

Ah. Alright. It may be the same bug the other guy pointed out, with the robots killing a turret. Version 1.40 out will be out maybe today, probably tomorrow. It has some more decent sized changes. Perhaps we'll even see a new minimap icon.

EDIT - Version 1.39 is OUT.

I'm not sure i mentioned this but there is a squad issue with certain player slots. Yellow and orange I've noticed. The squad breaks when you select unselect units the squad members wander to base. I didn't notice it in the red or blue slots.
