LOL yeah it's fun.

Furball - Sep-16-2005 server time

Ya, the cybervillage is in total chaos right now. I love it

Red Squirrel - Sep-16-2005 server time

There would be a minimum though, since yeah you'd end up with 0.0000000142ICs and still can buy.

Yeah true. It would be super expensive though. Heck with this bloated economy I should make it so some things cost a % of your ICs instead of a fixed amount.

Then, unless something costs 100%, you could buy forever. Think, a percent is always PART of something, so if you're always losing PART of your money, you'll never run out!

Triple6_wild - Sep-15-2005 server time

hmm i dont think an option like that should be allowed since it could get a lil confusing on the forums with everyone changing names

Red Squirrel - Sep-15-2005 server time

Wow I need to soon put that option in the cybervillage, so it will cost.

MikeDB - Sep-15-2005 server time

cool hey Red could you cchange my name back to Mikwiththestick? lol I keep forgetting im LORD DRATHCO.

Red Squirrel - Sep-14-2005 server time

Yep armies work. Until the goverment figures something out.

jellyfish - Sep-14-2005 server time

so what you are saying is that I need to recruit an army...will do.

Red Squirrel - Sep-14-2005 server time

Yeah that's to prevent too many terrorist attacks at once by the same person. Unlike banks and roberies though, this delay only affects 1 user individually so you can have like 10 people attempt at once.

jellyfish - Sep-14-2005 server time

This happens when I try to bomb you:

You get past some of the security, but decide not to go on because you were on probation not too long ago.

So I guess you are safe for now.

furball- you are going down! I was making my bank all nice and secure for everyone, and then I get a message saying that i've been robbed 56 million or something like that...56 million is that all??? that's walking around money to me

lol, I knew I'd pay for that one! But I just couldn't help it! Sooooo much money

jellyfish - Sep-14-2005 server time

Red Squirrel - Sep-14-2005 server time

I'm so evil.

CODE

if($data[sdatebought]>time()-432000)die("Sorry, you cannot cash stocks this early! <a href=\"java-script history.go(-1)\">Back</a>");

You now have to wait 5 days before being able to cash stocks. This can still be loopholed though, but not if I limit the multiplier.

So the stock values may be a little different as I test this out.

I was also displaying the wrong variable for "date bought" so each stock was showing up as today's date.

Red Squirrel - Sep-14-2005 server time

With all that cash you better manufacture some nice artifacts and stuff.

Furball - Sep-14-2005 server time

I just sent you a PM Red explaining how one could in theory exploit stuff to get more Ic's- hope it worked.

Nice boat yard though

Red Squirrel - Sep-14-2005 server time

Yeah got it. Had a feeling it was the stock system, as I fixed the fine system loophole. I either have to change the formula of the stocks (how values are calculated) or set a limit on cashing. If I set the limit based on transactions (ex: the stock issuer has to do at least 10 transactions before you can cash them) it would probably be the most ef fective, as they won't drasticly change that much.

QUOTE (Red Squirrel @ Sep 14 2005, 10:32 PM)

Yeah I think so.

You know, I'd almost have to redesign the cybervillage from scratch. Some of the coding is so horrible.

I'll have to check the transaction logs to see wth happened.

Wait, this is Canada based, right? So we need TAXES!!!

That could prove to take long. Maybe a few minor changes or a few alterations would do the trick.

Me, after fixing a few "bugs". There was a loophole in the fine system, with two accounts you can basically make yourself tons of cash, and the stock system made it near impossible to cash stocks, so now you can cash stocks even if the stock issuer has no cash to refund for the stocks bought from them. The goverment helps, in this case.

WOW. Phil obviously found a bug exploit!

Red Squirrel - Sep-14-2005 server time

jellyfish - Sep-14-2005 server time

Now who's number 1???

Red Squirrel - Sep-11-2005 server time

BTW I'm fixing that "bug" with the fines.

People won't be able to steal or rob the bank when they are too low in the negatives, like -1000 or something. That's total cash, so does not matter how much you have on you.

got your messege furball

all back to normal tho so no biggie ^^

and hey i just won the lotto

Winning number: 454
Your number: 454

You WIN 10511900 ICs!!!

Oh, YOU own that place? Whoops

. Thought somebody else owned it. Darn, I was trying to win the lotto too :/

haha ya i own that .... i thought you knew and were targetting me for umm my attempts to rob your bank free of charge

i tryed robbing your bank so much that i was -400 million in the hole so i just robbed ya to get my myself back out of dept cuz you had all of my IC's in your wallet cuz of the fines i got

Red Squirrel - Sep-09-2005 server time

Haha and you'd be suprised, sometimes you'll get a good steal, sometimes not. Take note of how much money is in the bank and how much accounts. When you steal it takes a random amount of cash from one of the top 10 richest's accounts. So the less accounts and more total money would normally mean the accounts have lot of cash.

Also, there's lot of system accounts like MallItemFactoryxx (xx can be 1 to 50) so most of the time you hit one of those accounts as they tend to have lot of money. Whenever a shop keeper manufactures items, the cost goes in one of those accounts.

Let me guess you tried to steal or rob a bank? LOL worse thing you can do when you first start.

Issue stocks and hope people buy them.

yeah I tried to rob the bank with my bare hands, it said 1 % chance so I thought that if I did it 100 times then it'll work and the amount of ICs lost in fines will be less than the amount of IC I'll be gaining, I got bored after doing it for a while and didn't get anywhere near to doing it 100 times.

Red Squirrel - Sep-09-2005 server time

No but I might add it. Figured it would make it a challenge but it's more then just a challenge I think.

Furball - Sep-09-2005 server time

Ya red. I have some old, crappy stocks left, but I can't terminate them and release new ones. Is there currently and option to do this?

I did all of that. Attempted to the rob the bank..... With my bare hands.

Then I issued stocks, cheap ones. They ran out, fast. So I had to issue out MORE stocks, which aren't budging.... At all...

Red Squirrel - Sep-09-2005 server time

Oh, and terrorism is pricy. I just blew 200000 ICs to bomb two tiles. Curse you, rand()!

oh, you better not steal them. If you do, that trading post of yours will become a mere spec on the landscape (I feel so Darth Vader)

Red Squirrel - Sep-08-2005 server time

Ouch, somebody forgot to put their ICs in the bank.

Red Squirrel - Sep-08-2005 server time

I have to go to bed soon. waiting for one last thing so I can try something again.

hey I see you got a successful attack in.

did you get nailed at the end? I'm guessing not since you only used the 1 tile hit which has a low chance of getting hit at the end.

Ya, didn't get caught that time. But I wanted that whole castle whiped, so I got a little greedy

. Needless to say, I'll be back on at 12:39 am

Furball - Sep-08-2005 server time

I'm sending a little "Message" to the castle in the corner

Red Squirrel - Sep-08-2005 server time

I'd like to know too.

Maybe there's a loophole I need to know about so I can fix it.

That or stocks, they tend to do that if you can actually cash them in.

Furball - Sep-08-2005 server time

O M G HOW DID YOU GO FROM 200 MIL to 300 MIL in 30 min?!

Red Squirrel - Sep-08-2005 server time

Not for long!

Actually I've been blowing lot of cash trying to do a terrorist act.

MikeDB - Sep-08-2005 server time

Yay! 200 Mil
