Major Additions - Realm Conquest System

This Conquest System is very similar to the vBarmy system, except it has a few specific fundamental changes. Instead of every player working alone to fight other players, players work together as a single nation to fight other players who are members of different nations. Everything else in the system is pretty much self-explanitory.

Hey.. how does the nation bonus work? I don't see it add the bonus to my troops offense/defense.

in functions.php
If you want the bonuses to add to the # of troops, you use this code:

line 68 should be

$power = $power + $player[pTroops] * ((100 + $player[nOffense] + $player[oPower]) / 100);

and line 94 should be

$power = $power + $player[pTroops] * ((100 + $player[nDefense] + $player[dPower]) / 100);

for proper addition of all bonuses and armors/weapons.

The problem with the original code:

	$power = 1 + $player[pTroops] + $power * ((100 + $player[nOffense] + $player[oPower]) / 100);

is that the 2nd instance of $power (which is the item bonus from buying), if it is 0 meaning you have not bought an item yet, will null the entire equation after it because math rule is that multiplication goes first. Since 0 * ((100 + $player[nOffense] + $player[oPower]) / 100) = 0. Also the 1 in the equation is useless

If you want the bonuses to add to the item attk/defense power + # of troops, you use this code:
line 68 should be

$power = ($power + $player[pTroops]) * ((100 + $player[nOffense] + $player[oPower]) / 100);

and line 94 should be

$power = ($power + $player[pTroops]) * ((100 + $player[nDefense] + $player[dPower]) / 100);

Really would like to see VBcredits added for this...yeah i know you hate it but it is a very good credits system and a lot of forums use it..so why not just add it in..it could lead to more installs.
I'm still unsure on installing this but will keep an eye on it and see where it goes.
thanks

One month is not really an unusual amount of time to not hear back from a developer.

Just a quick one. I've done a quick search through the topic for avatars and can't find anything so i thought I would ask.

In the Nation specific forums the users avatars link is broken for everyone.

The link in the script looks at "http://mywebsite.co.uk/forums/customavatars/thumbs/avatar1_3.gif" for my avatar for example when the avatars are kept in "http://www.mywebsite.co.uk/forums/customavatars/avatar1_3.gif"

Any ideas on how I can change the script to change this.

Any help would be appreciated.

[dai-kun]

yeah, you can change it in the conquest.php file

$comment['avatarurl'] = $vbulletin->options['avatarurl'] . ($thumb ? '/thumbs' : '') . "/avatar{$comment['userID']}_{$comment['avatarrevision']}.gif";

But you should have thumbnails created for your custom avatars instead. Go to maintenace -> update counters -> Rebuild Custom Avatar Thumbnails
and it should work without any code edits.

Also if you notice that you have over 30 posts or however much you set your settings to be before pagination, the 2nd, 3rd and so on pages will show the same post no matter what. I don't know how to fix that.

I wish this mod was developed more. I have over 500 members playing in just a few days. I'm doing my own mod as fit but it's frustrating sometimes.
