  1. Problem with this is it was done before and many people also sat at portal trying to get in like Sand said all fine til you DC. So the biggest problem I see is what happened before in 59 cap is that players were constantly DCed or crashed and then not able to get back in. This applies to the GS that might be there to monitor it too. In theory this is a good concept, in practice though it doesnt work so well. I remember being a GS and being kicked out in 59 cap and not able to get in to see those AFKers or dual loggers. My biggest issue is the people that will dual log a same faction or opposing faction and blocking real active players. 

    This isnt speaking from just an RG perspective, but from a GS perspective as well as a FK one. If the best geared FK get DCed and some lower level or lower geared get in it could also mess with either faction. Sadly this is a hard issue to deal with, a lot of it depends on time zones as well which is just so uncontrollable. As for a suggestion for a fix to this I am at a loss, cause nothing has seemed to work. Peoples spirits get broken and decide it isnt worth their time to show up so they just dont. 

  2. First off it is pseudocode not sudocode a non-existent word. Also along those lines comments are not pseudocode, their comments in common language structure that explains the code, pseudocode is literally longer and explains steps taken to achieve the results. Comments on your code can be as simple as // This section retrieves user input about their age <<< This is a comment and in no way pseudocode. However you win I give in and give up on you. I was only attempting to be helpful and be part of the team. I never once belittled you in anyway if you took it that way again I apologize. I sincerely mean I applaud you, as I have seen many people not capable of writing programs, I have seen them try and fail and I have even attempted to help further their capabilities so I was sincere in my applause it was not meant as sarcasm. Sorry you took it as such but I will end this as I didn't intend to offend or insult.

  3. Cause you aren't getting it you keep refering to code. You might have written a few programs in your life and I applaud you on that. However you don't know what happens after said code is compiled is what I am saying. Sorry for attempting to help you and others understand better. Also who says it was fully directed to you, and only you? The forums are for all to see and learn from as well, perhaps this better helps others to understand all that has to be done and how hard Vivi works to make this magic happen. You only assume I am explaining this solely to you. Sadly your not the only one that has asked these same questions, that relate to source code or modifications to it. So this was not in any way directed to you, but as a whole answering and explaining said process.
    I apologize for attempting to explain this but you do not have to be upset that I did, be thankful I took the time to do so, also be thankful for all the work not just Vivi puts in, all of the SB team as done their parts. Seems you are thankful for her, but you forget that we are here too, and even these posts to help you or others out in whatever way they help are contribution to the whole.

  4. It isnt even as simple as that... It isnt actual script that is being used it is numerical in nature but yes she is saving what she knows. She does not see things like  cout << "Hello World"; // prints Hello World . Without going into a lot of detail, which would just make peoples heads hurt she is seeing the numerical output of the code. So it is not even a standard human language based system of code that is available. Thus there is not even an option to open any source code, just files that are output driven or input driven to the engine. If your at all familiar with hexadecimal, think in those terms not in a programming language aspect. 
    Yes she makes it as easy as possible and has backups a plenty of things changed and unchanged. So no fear there, just still a lot of work due to how it has to be done.

  5. @GoddessSand That is called a comment or comment section. There in lies the problem we do not have the original uncompiled code. You can only see the comments if you have the entire solution set. IE the Source Code. If I had the source code personally there is literally nothing I could not accomplish with it. I have been writing code for more years than I care to admit to... Vivi isnt able to read any of this original code at all. So no ability to see any comments to understand what a section is or isnt doing. See if I had the source code I would not even need their comments, I can walk thru every line of code and figure out what it does and doesn't it is from so many years of experience in doing programming. 
    This is why it is even harder and her work is even that much more in need of Applause on her part. For her to have changed files that really aren't quite meant to be changed in the manner they are being done is huge.

  6. Everyone should take a little time to remember a couple things. 

    1: If something seems wrong or too good to be true. Your first thought is probably correct.

    2: Most importantly only go to approved links that are associated to Vendetta.

  7. Yeah just leave right after a roll. Besides as @DrDieLess mentioned this is out of our control. Not sure there is anyway to let you ditch a party in the middle of a dice roll, without possibly having the source code, or if there was a work around possibly crashing the server or at the very least the party. Who knows the consequence in something like this, easy fix tell the leader right when you join the group to set the loot options or ask to be set as leader and set it yourself. Easier and then you dont lose out or have to quit the group for any reason.

    Maybe this can be done more simply instead of looking ways to make buff/debuffs with simple tweaks. As my previous suggestion:Massive exp loss during death AND if possible make a very easy daily quest (like deal 1 damage to any mob? ) that rewards the player with 2-3 altered Mother's Miracle to bring back the player with the xp he lost during death in case he/she is trying to level up. What i mean altered is: instead of spawning the player in that spot, respawn them at nearest checkpoint and with hp/sp they normally spawn with. Therefore exploits in places like viledon etc during a boss fight wont become ridiculus and endless. Also make it so they can be sold for 1B ? In case they start eating item spots.

    While this sounds good in theory that you die and spawn in a certain location. Without source code to implement something this complex might be impossible. First off you would need an item that you could set a certain manner to respawn you where you died at rather than the closest set respawn spot. While this is already being done with the current Mothers Miracles respawn in place, not sure you could alter the affects on it. Vivi might be able to create a MM that does not give back any lost XP the problem is these might then be spammed during PVP which could end up being a very bad thing. It would be too hard to control where these items would be allowed to use.

  9. This might be much more possible, however just to increase that would be detrimental for those that do not wish to lose said experience. When your truly leveling up you wouldn't want that big of a risk. Vivi said she would look into perhaps some sort of debuff that could potentially increase the loss on death during that buff/debuff, but you would never want to make the initial experience loss that high.

  10. @Armada Essentially this is sort of what Vivi tested. She had a buff created that should in theory gave negative base exp. It did not work as expected. While this is a great idea, the problem lies in the source code. If the mobs are set to give a certain amount per mob as a normal kill, then essentially the only way to affect this is with a buff that would negate a certain amount of it while that buff is running. This is what Vivi created and tested, which didnt work. Yes we can alter how much exp you receive per mob or even quest, but sadly seems can't stop it or negate it with some sort of buff/debuff.

  11. @uLUVme While you do bring up some good points to allow players to stay at certain level caps. Creating this system might end up being a little harder than you would first think so. Plus with all the effort being put towards new content and such it would be far back on the to do list if it was even chosen to do. There would have to be quite a few people that backed this for it to be worth the time and effort to attempt it. While I do agree it would be, and honestly probably from the very beginning been a choice to lock your exp, the problem is doing it now just might not be worth the time or be something possible given the obstacles. 

  12. Tiered spenders is something that would definitely work for this concept and I know many people that would like to see this system in place. However as Bash said to make that work need to have the items to offer and cycle in those tiers to make them worth while for players. I will say that "if" and or "when" something like this comes into play there is a few people I know that used to be spenders that would return being spenders just for this reason. @Ashyaina however if you haven't already do look at the Mystery boxes perhaps you will find something that interests you there, or if you have a request for a certain type of mystery box you can request it here 

    Hope this helps you find something of interest.

  13. @Spyro I agree those would be interesting to see in game. I have actually heard other people ask about or talk about them. Right now I know we have quite a few bike options, but I wouldn't mind also seeing some new ones appear. I for one have always loved the Lancer look, I would love to see a version of it made with the higher base speed like a Rapid/Magnum etc. This is something I would go for fast and would be a dream come true for me.
