Title: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: funbot on February 28, 2017, 12:03:56 PM

Sup guys. My current PBEM games wont quite fill my gaming needs, so thought i'd set up a quick hassle-free game whoever wants and manages to join in. And by hassle free i mean that there wont be designated guy to make a map, and if peeps will stop playing in middle of the game, we just toss the game to trashbin instead of trying to find player to fill the spot.

So full on faith on games random generation on players placements, some will win and some will just suck it up and just make the most of it  :P

Game settings will be as follow: All winning conditions allowed, look first, blind research and no unity survey. Map conditions will be random and size will range from tiny to standard depending on participants. No AI factions.

We will use Yitzi's Unofficial SMAX patch 3.5c, and i'll just snatch some houserules from other currently active pbem thread since they seem nice: "1) Weapons above strength 4 on choppers are banned, 2) Releasing mindworms to the wild is permitted, 3) The Empath Guild and The Cloudbase Academy SPs are set to destroyed". Any other suggestions to houserules are negotiable.

And ofc we use the this sites standard rules too: http://alphacentauri2.info/index.php?topic=1519.0 (http://alphacentauri2.info/index.php?topic=1519.0)

Since we don't mod the game either at all, banned SP's are still buildable, but we just have to agree together not to touch em' anyway, mmmkay?  ;)

Those who wants to join, state your faction you want to play on this thread, and pm me your timezone and email, so we can figure out the gaming order. I'll start by choosing my o ever favorite Miriam the Believers.

Players are expected to send their turn within 24 hours, though ofc rl will always butt in time to time, but pls give a heads up for that atleast. But if you are not able commit to that on a regular basis, pls dont bother join da gaim  ::)

We will start the game within week.

o, rite, i gues you can't play less than 7 factions without scenario editor? Welp, fek it then, we will have Ai to fill the spots then kek.

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: funbot on February 28, 2017, 01:26:59 PM

and since AI is in the game, gues might as well lift the secret project bans as well, since AI wont care about those bans anyway.

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: Nevill on March 01, 2017, 04:30:33 PM

I suppose I can play.

Which faction will you choose? I'll probably pick something depending on your preferences. If there are none, I'll just play Morgan.

If AI builds any forbidden projects, we can always set it as a rule that a base with those project has to be obliterated no later than next turn.

I am fine with any rules, though I would forbid Planetary Transit System unless you are looking to a very short game. I also prefer games without crawlers, but that's up to you. We can also try a game with no Secret Projects at all (only AIs will build them, and we are obligated to destroy their bases if we capture those) - it could be interesting.

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: MercantileInterest on March 02, 2017, 05:14:44 AM

Looks fun but I'm already involved in multiple games, so will have to skip this one.

I am willing to set things up for you with the scenario editor. You wouldn't need any AI factions. If you send me all your passwords, I could also delete players who jump ship, so you wouldn't have to trash the whole game.

Remember that the faction placement algorithm stinks. However, I could hand pick a number of evenly spaced and valuable locations and then randomly pick which player starts where by rolling a die.

Let me know if you want to move in that direction. Cheers!

awrite mercantile, sounds like a deal. I was thinking that having a designated editor would take it sweet time to get things rolling, but in with your "daily activity rate" it shouldn't take too long :). So ye, dump all the AI away, remove banned secret projects (Cloudbase, empath guild and planetary transit system), and giev a decent positions for all of us. Just don't over do it and all you know ;)

Atm there is 3 of us playing, so i'd think small mapsize would be enough for us (nevill, kurvivor, feel free to comment on this one)?

We will wait untill sunday to sort all the rules and possibly add one more eager player if such appears, and then you roll up your sleeves and stuff? Rite? Rite  :)

I will go with whatever works, but I'll voice my preference for bigger maps. Though if the placement is hand-made and there are only 3 factions on the map I suppose it doesn't matter too much.

Some factions work better depending on the map size.

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: funbot on March 02, 2017, 01:07:08 PM

well we could go for standard mapsize then to be sure, that should be more than enough for 3-4 players

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: Nevill on March 03, 2017, 09:54:28 AM

I was leaning towards the ban, but I'll leave it to funbot's discretion. Since I will be playing Morgan, leaving them in the game won't hurt me in the slightest.

Do you have more room? For Lal, perhaps?

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: Nevill on March 03, 2017, 02:13:48 PM

Sure!

I think that's everyone?

Since we got into rules lawyering a little, let's specify the rules. My suggestions:

Rules:
1. A player is not permitted to establish contact with another player prior to having met them in-game.
2. A player may not use build queue manipulation or other loopholes to hurry production at a cost that would be lower than directly hurrying the item that one intends to build. except for the first 10 minerals
3. A player may not use build queue manipulation or other loopholes to build something you could not directly add to the build queue.
4. A player may not upgrade a particular type of unit using the design workshop, and then attack with that unit in the same turn.
5. A player is not permitted to make more than one social engineering change per line, per turn. For instance, one is not permitted to start the turn in wealth, switch to power mid-turn for the extra disbanded minerals, and then switch back to wealth that same turn, getting the refund.
6. Stockpiling in build queue allowed when building units. (of course when building sp/facility too, but it's not needed to do anything to gain those bonuses too)
7. Upgrading crawlers before adding them to hurry a secret project is not allowed.
8. Reverse-engineering allowed. except for reversing Speeder chassis from a Probe Team
9. Additional move after former builds something and his flag is gray is not allowed.
10. Empath Guild, Planetary Transit System and Cloudbase Academy are BANNED. I think Mercantile Interest can set them to Destroyed, and that'll be that.
11. Weapons above strength 4 on choppers are banned
12. Releasing mindworms to the wild is permitted. It was never prohibited, but funbot wants it explicitly allowed, so why not? :)
13. Messing with other players (represented by AIs) during Council meetings is NOT ALLOWED. You can't let AI override the player's vote.
14. Probe team actions are NOT PUNISHABLE by automatic vendetta. If a player wants to start a war over a probe action, they must initiate it manually. The responce over the probe actions defaults to 'Overlook' until it's the affected player's turn. (in PBEM the player using a probe decides the reaction of a player against whom the action was taken)
15. Self-destructing units with Fusion reactor or better is not allowed. The self-destruct formula allows to destroy any number of units by detonating two 10-1-*^2 Jets/Copters in the adjacent tile. Disbanding units to get rid of them is perfectly fine, though.
16. All game-relevant information (Global warming warnings etc.) that only displays for the first player should be provided to the rest of the players too.
17. Retiring units is prohibited, period. Players must 'Obsolete' the designs, not retire them. Retiring a design erases all instances of the design from the game, including thoise that belong to other players. This is obviously unacceptable.

Discuss?


Edit: added the retire rule.

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: MercantileInterest on March 03, 2017, 06:48:35 PM

If the rest of you get your passwords in, I could make the game on Saturday. Do you all want a small map or average? The scenario editor doesn't allow me to forbid secret projects or units, so without alphax.txt editing, you'll just have to forego building forbidden items.  :D You don't want any AIs in this game, right? Kurvivor, which faction do you want?

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: Nevill on March 03, 2017, 06:55:59 PM

Standard map size, please.

I suppose we can just agree not to build them, but you can edit Secret Priojects in SE. Just select an AI Colony Pod, build a base, enter it, click Edit Base, then choose to edit Secret Projects and set the ones you want as Destroyed.


Then remove the AI via 'Eliminate Faction' option in the menu.

"Empath Guild, Planetary Transit System and Cloudbase Academy are BANNED."

'k. Can do. Have cooked up a fun map. Wonder how an Alpha Centauri game would work with probe team infiltration banned. Would certainly make the governorship enviable.

gmt+2. Also, seems there is a later version for the Yitzi patch(letter D instead C), is it too late to change it to that?

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: Nevill on March 05, 2017, 06:02:54 PM

GMT +3. But I really can only play from 17-00 to 21-00 GMT, so it's best to take that into account, rather that the timezone.

Edit: sure, let's go for 3.5d. I will need to make a separate installation to run this game anyway.

1) Sorry for the delay here but I completely lost track of this game, although I knew I was missing something. And the thread didn't send me any notifications, so there is that.

2) I needed to rename the file, it messed with my copy in a most peculiar way. Basically, when I downloaded this file to my folder, the SMAX copy was unable to browse the game folder for games ("system error") and I have to store my turn in a completely different folder. I don't know what gives but I suspect either the name of the file or the 3.5d itself.

Anyhow, the turn is with you, guys. Enjoy and good luck to you all!

Comrades,
I owe you an apology. You asked for a game without any AIs but three of them have sprung up onto your map. When designing the scenario, I only put down colony pods for your four factions. However, in my other unrelated games, I've playing with both Progenitors and the Planet Cult, so they were still on the buffer. Turns out the game is hardcoded to respawn their factions 4-7 turns after the start.

So, yeah, now you have to deal with the three of them. Sorry.

Guess you could make a rule requiring you to burn captured alien bases to the ground, since that wouldn't trigger sanctions.

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: Kirov on April 08, 2017, 06:49:21 PM

No biggie, MI. If they're in, they're in. I don't see the need for a new rule, I believe you can deal with the aliens in whatever manner you like. Of course as the true successor to Captain Garland and the depositary of our Mission, I say we gas each and every one of them, down to the last infant!  ;nuke; Since they're not human, it's ok to vent and torture them a little.

With the aliens present where they shouldn't be, can't say this is going to be a balanced game. Oh well.

But really, I'm very sorry for the delay and for any inconvenience. I'll do my best to keep it to minimum.

I was the first to say that I'm fine with the aliens, but I'm afraid I've been literally caught in the alien crossfire. One of them completely blocks my expansion while the other has just parked his ogre two tiles away from my base. I have no means of defence and we can't even talk. If I go down, tell my wife... nothing. She will know.

Worry not, soon the wheels of our rovers will ride all over the elien corpses

It seems aliens are expanding their area of control

Post by: Kirov on July 09, 2017, 08:37:49 AM

Two things:

1) I don't know why but my Yitzi patches don't seem to work. Before I take a look at it, I use vanilla with what I believe is the scient patch.

2) The alien ogre is adjacent to my base now. If they choose so, I'm eliminated in 3 turns.

welp, i've been rather unexcited with all these games for a while and just generally tired, so i think i'm just gonna pass on all the current alpha games i'm playing on this forum, sry and bb!
-edit my-password is qwertyqwerty

Are we going to reorganize or?..

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: Nevill on July 12, 2017, 08:30:22 PM

Well, if Kirov is unhappy with Aliens burning down his faction, he might want to switch locations to funbot's.

Otherwise we can just obliterate the towns and continue.

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: Kirov on July 12, 2017, 11:12:41 PM

Neville, you know I would trust you with my daughter if I only had one, but playing a faction with its password published would be a huge step out of my comfort zone for me.

Can you follow the other thread with funbot's game for a while? Maybe we could start something new altogether.

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: Nevill on July 13, 2017, 03:22:42 AM

I picked two more games, so I am not quite searching for new ones at the moment.

Did you know that a moderator can change a password if he knows all passwords to the game? There is a tool for that. We could use that if that's the only holdup.

Just throwing this in:
If (for some reason) this game will not be continued, is it possible to converti it to a single-player game? i think i would like to try and  see the situation to the end

Title: Re: quickie smax by funbot
Post by: Nevill on July 14, 2017, 09:50:15 AM

It is possible, if the passwords are provided by the players.
