Strategus Issues / Wrong color for Snow Plains

« on: October 11, 2011, 08:22:15 pm »

The notes from chadz say snow plains should be colored #ffffff in the geo_calradia map. The color actually on the map is #94e2dc.  This is confirmed since I am currently in snow plains, but my speed is appropriate for plains.

edit: Alternatively, the notes have the wrong color, but the db has the wrong speed.

Realism Discussion / Damage Effects

Getting hit in the legs should reduce your athletics skill by half.
Getting hit in the body should reduce power strike/draw/throw by half.
Getting hit in the head should make you blind or deaf or dead.

Suggestions Corner / Horse Variety

All the armored horses have essentially the same speed / maneuverability ratio. See on this chart how the lower difficulty horses have varied speed and maneuverability, but from the destrier on up it is not varied at all.  Speed is always a point or two less than turning ability and that's it. A very boring progression.

I'd rather see armored versions of the courser and arabian. Like so:

Charger
hit points: 120
body armor: 45
difficulty: 5
speed: 44
maneuver: 37
charge: 38

Cataphract Horse
hit points: 120
body armor: 40
difficulty: 5
speed: 37
maneuver: 46
charge: 34

Also, there is no reason to have 4 horses at difficulty 3.  I suggest taking the Steppe Horse (which no one uses anyway) down to difficulty 2, and the Sumpter to difficulty 1, each with appropriate nerfed stats. Then having 1 point in riding will not be entirely pointless.

cRPG Technical problems / Practice Longsword

It has come to my attention that the Practice Longsword is set with the itp_two_handed flag, despite having the 1h animation flags enabled.  This prevents it from being used with a shield, one of the features the real Longsword has.

Suggestions Corner / Website UI Suggestions

• Add a show/hide button for the left side equipment category section. The filters below run off the bottom of my laptop screen and are then obscured by the links on the lower left corner. Easy since you already use jQuery.
• Separate the damage filter by thrust/swing. It's hard to find things with piercing swings since almost everything does piercing thrusts.
• Add a flag filter for usable on horseback, knockdown, etc.
• Order inventory page by item type.  Better yet do it in javascript and have a selection of type, name, price, heirloom level.
• Show two digit precision for item weight.  According to item_kinds1.txt, those 0.3 and 0.8 weight items are really 0.25 and 0.75.
• Add a button/hover to show a picture of both the offered and requested item in the market so that we can identify items with identical names.
• This might already be fixed (I only saw it on a friend's screen so I cannot check myself) avoid letting the browser auto fill the password for the Skip the Fun form.

Cheers!
