I want to do the 1.6 java upgrade tonight. So you will have to download the game client again, and the latest java version. Instructions will follow.

Also, while looking at the sphere for the first time in a long time I found some clans have exceeded the current pt limit... I am going to have to purge some of their forces. This will be done through the random crippling of 10 fighters every day. It will be up to you to kill them.

Actually, I have to go someplace tonight, so cannot release the 1.6.
I will however, release the Wrath of God criticals on the server.

If your clan is over the points count then 1/4 of your titans will be hit with 25% damage every day until you reduce the clan size.

If you are only slightly over cost then only a few titans will be hit.

Sorry for being brutal, but it's needed.

Jonathan

FYI

Your clan dA chImps [Max cost = 20000,Current cost=18512, Rest Deleted]

So below the cap .....

BEWARE - Invulnerability has now run out!** CRITICAL HIT DAMAGE ** scores additional 15 hits ( 3 comp 8 eng 4 weap)
Incoming devine intervention! Your clan costs more than the allowed maximum by -1488 YOU MUST DESTRUCT SOME TITANS!
The Titan Gorilla A4 was hit by a God's wrath critical inflicting 15 damage!

Several other titans were also hit by a "God's wrath critical" as well.

This occured while spawning ... something isn't right as this should NOT have happened (assuming my interptretation of the rules is correct)
So I'm assuming 1 of 2 things ...
1) Monkey is an idiot and has gotten it wrong again ...
or
2) There is something wrong with the way it's being calculated ...

Just thought I should let you know to give you the opportunity to laugh at me if it is 1) or bestow bountiful gifts in the case of 2)

Sorry but this is just one more in the seemingly endless 'glitches' , 'bugs' , & ill thought out mods that are ruining a once great game.\\

The Titan SQB33 was hit by a God's wrath critical inflicting 7 damage!


Even computers can usually tell the difference between a positive and a negative !

ARGH - I see clans all over the sphere sacrificing virgin goats in an effort to appease God. Hopefully he will accept the offerings and inform the blood mother to stop the wrath before we are all gone.

You, sir, are an idiot. This game does as good if not better than the multimillion dollar large commercial games do. If you can do better then start a competing game and prove it.

I think that should perhaps read, that I am an idiot.

I'll stick some sort of fix in asap. Hope no one lost a war because of this.

I agree it's a glitch, but I'd disagree that it's happening often these days, since I haven't touched the code in ages. Hey ho. Email, forums and all electronic forms of comms encourage text rage.

Hope the dust settles and my soon to be done patch molifies those that feel in need of it.

Jonathan

ps No don't start a competing game!!

All agrieved titans have been mended - you should have them back at full working order again tomorrow.

Hopefully the bug won't recur, but if it does please raise it again and I'll try again.
