yup figured out that large, medium, and small make a big difference in the mobs.

The system still needs to be fixed, though. :( It is too frustrating for players. They want to move on, but they just keep dying. The game needs to allow players to grow at a quicker pace. :)

Yeah, you are right in that statement. There are still quite a few things that need tweeking and player progression seems to be comming a main one.

If no one else looks into tweeking this, I will take a look shortly at it.

I should try and take a look this weekend, too. Or as soon as I am done with a pre-calculus home test I have to finish right now. :P

I found that increasing the starting gold from 150 to 2000 helped new players.

Code: Select all
##Open##

create_character.php

##Find##

$query = "INSERT INTO phaos_characters
(location,image_path,username,name,age,strength,dexterity,wisdom,constitution,hit_points,race,class,sex,gold,fight,defence,weaponless,lockpick,traps)
VALUES
('$startloc','$image_path','$PHP_PHAOS_USER','$name','$age','$strength','$dexterity','$wisdom','$constitution','$hit_points','$race','$class','$sex','150','".$skills["fight"]."','".$skills["defence"]."','".$skills["weaponless"]."','".$skills["lockpick"]."','".$skills["traps"]."')";

##Replace With##

$query = "INSERT INTO phaos_characters
(location,image_path,username,name,age,strength,dexterity,wisdom,constitution,hit_points,race,class,sex,gold,fight,defence,weaponless,lockpick,traps)
VALUES
('$startloc','$image_path','$PHP_PHAOS_USER','$name','$age','$strength','$dexterity','$wisdom','$constitution','$hit_points','$race','$class','$sex','2000','".$skills["fight"]."','".$skills["defence"]."','".$skills["weaponless"]."','".$skills["lockpick"]."','".$skills["traps"]."')";

That is a good tip, however because I still like my Members to feel they earn it I have integrated my Community into it, so when a person posts they get points which they can later use as gold in the game.
