We have measured what happens (statiscally) with this bonus, and it seemed fair. We may re-evaluate that in future…
Elder players will gradually loose skill points (those will be marked in red in your player list, for 1 turn).
Other than that, they have no (different) effect in your team. But in future who knows, maybe an elder captain can be of more help to the team somehow (experience). That would be one more incentive to keep elder players as captains, for example.
cheers
It is not difficult, but I don’t see it as a priority right now. I will add it to our queue, though.
thanks!
Statistics computer now includes games from all seasons. This will make it a much more useful tool.
The board doesn’t allow you to expand your stadium if your financial situation is not going to be regular after the expansion.
Don’t worry , the newspaper will be out there relatively soon :D.
We’ve found what the problem is, the fix will be applied soon. But don’t worry guys, you are not playing with less players , you just cannot see your extra guy :D. cheers
until the competition ends or until the next yellow card on that competition (2 yellow cards = suspension for 1 game and card reset)
There is a good possibility that, in future, we add different team behaviors… For example: all out attack if we are still losing after minute 80. Or all out attack all the time, for the craziest managers :D. But that is different from the regular field position tendency.
cheers!
Nice one. cheers
Players can move up to 2 squares using individual tactics. Go back means 1 square back. All back means 2 squares back. Yes, a help page is needed :( … But guys, remember, our test area is a wiki! Everybody can help us there. We will do our best if we have to do it ourselves, but it can take a while…
cheers!
The players are generated using a gaussian distribution and common sense deviations… You have to think about one thing: we currently only have the best countries in the world :). Imagine when we add some minor countries… Also, it was too easy to develop players in the previous system.
I don’t have IE6 here to test but it should be fixed now :D. It works on IE7. Please let me know!
cheers!
nsg, thanks a lot for the rich description of the problem. Now I know exactly what is happening and will for sure take much less time to solve it!
cheers
This makes it easier to keep “a good behavior” from the forum. But it’s an easy change, if people say it is a problem.
I will investigate this soon… Thanks for reporting!
yes, everything should be ok now… cheers!
will fix that today… thanks for reporting!
This was a serious security flaw we just had, Hank, caused by our new server structure (which is being worked on). We apologize for the inconvenience and we will solve all the problems that were caused by it (just send a message to us).
thanks
Our new provider has answered a support ticket and migrated rubysoccer to another machine. That is why we had some unavailability some minutes ago. We will run the tick now.
Rubysoccer is a pretty non-standard app. As you guys can imagine, we have some really high cpu usage, during the tick. So it is normal to have to open a support request to ask for our providers to change us to another machine because our neighboors are also using a lot of cpu – and in that case we just can’t live in the same house.
Maybe now that rubysoccer is starting to get more users (and maybe more donations) we will be able to pay for a more dedicated service. But for now we will continue doing the best we can, I hope we can normalize the situation asap.
Crap… keep reporting if it happens, guys…
thanks!
Yes, this is a very serious security flaw. We are trying to understand what happened, I’ve tried a couple things. We consider this critical but right now we can’t say we can 100% focus on that… :( Sorry for the inconvenience, guys.
I would like to ask for our users to not take advantage of this situation. Please report, log out and log in again if you see any problems.
Do you use rubysoccer inside a network?
We certainly can. I will take a look in this as soon as I finish my server experiences… I have been working on the server for a couple days now, trying to get a better browsing experience for you guys :D
cheers
I agree with you guys. I will change the logic (honestly i don’t know what the heck i was thinking when i did that…).
cheers!
We are testing a new server. Please post your opinion about the browsing speed / stability, as it is crucial for our decision (of permanently moving or not)!
cheers!
Everything seems to be better now… Lets see. But I will make sure we have a plan B if things continue this crappy.
Our server is having some technical problems today. It is not software-related, so we hope our provider solves it as soon as possible.
cheers!
One thing everybody has to notice is that sometimes there is not even time for the player to go back if you don’t have the ball possession, because you get the ball back. Other than that, it can really take a moment for the player to assume the new position.
