Re: [Openme-developers] Questions and Answers

[ChrisN <Ch...@sh...>]

Racial kill bounties at 10% is fine. I'd use the below formula for it, but it would require a pile of hard coding that I dont wanna do. So 10%. :)

I still like my proposal for xp change on kills:
xp change percent = 10 ((dead man's level - killer's level)/8)
This sets the variance at +- 5%, but realistically most kills will be in the 8-12% range. Which is fine, too important of an aspect of the game to have a huge variance. Playing with fire :)

And full XP regardless of kill type.

For the racial aspects. Nobody has seen the light of Saruman's version, and the clock is ticking, use the one BRUT has been working on. Tick tock, tick tock :)
Final decision is brut's though, he's team lead for that stuff.

Weapons delay; yes. Its already coded, so therefore, the ship's person (Hawklan) wants it.

Auto return fire.. I want. :)

Alliance treaties/size. Limit one, not the other.

Sector sorting. Pah. Do it by order of entry. Inverse it if you want. There's a last_move_date in 'ships' so all it would require is an order in a couple of queries.
