Slob chickens suddenly disappear before they go off the screen

Fixed in v.88 Bug

@GuestUniverse

Tiny typos

Awesome work, thanks

@MNaeemi777

Do players can buy CHL without linking their accounts to an e-mail address

No, you need to set an e-mail first.

@Francis

give the galactic cup qualification matches a chance to be hybrid like weekly is?

Hmm… not qualification. But I’ll change knockouts. Changed in v.88 Idea

@MNaeemi777

Umm, this

Well, I see in the code that this was intentional, but ok. ‘Fixed’ in v.88.

[Recruit_75]

Can this be looked into please?

Early Access version 87

A resuggestion but can we have this? People would love to have extra control over their spacecraft customization. And these ideas which were NOT made by me are also pretty cool, can they also be looked at please?

But I suggested it before in that post.

@Recruit_75

I’ve seen this, but it’s not the right time to be adding cosmetic changes as I’m currently very busy with multiplayer (which is incomparably more important)

Ok, medal awarded.

[SA-GoldenBoss128]

Thanks iA, also check the rest of what’s in the post I linked above when you have time.

@InterAction_studios

Galactic Cup: Knockout missions are now hybrid

How much stages can be hybrid(I suggest 2)? And are their chances of appearing the same as Weekly Challenge?

[InterAction_studios]

@SA-GoldenBoss128

add Slob Chicken to miniboss tier? Like it have a chance to replace Gatling/Laserguns

It’s already in the miniboss tier. Gatling/Laserguns are not part of the randomizer, they are hard-coded. And having a Slob in there would not be appropriate.

@SA-GoldenBoss128

that would be unfair for the players who played only once

So, play it twice then

@InterAction_studios

Gatling/Laserguns are not part of the randomizer, they are hard-coded.

So, this is why we will never see a Gatling Onslaught, sad

@SA-GoldenBoss128

How much stages can be hybrid(I suggest 2)? And are their chances of appearing the same as Weekly Challenge?

Currently, due to laziness “code reuse” reasons, I’m using exactly the same code as weekly.

[Francis]

@InterAction_studios

I’m using exactly the same code as weekly.

May I take a look?

[InterAction_studios]

Knock yourself out:

		// Decide which stages will be replaced in hybrid missions
		const int hybridReplacement1 = rng.getI2(1, 4);
		const int hybridReplacement2 = hybridReplacement1 + 1 + rng.getI2(1, 4);
		const int hybridReplacement3 = hybridReplacement2 + 1 + rng.getI2(1, 4);

		...

		if (pd->perPlanetMissionType == HYBRID)
		{
			pd->perPlanetMissionType = INVASION; // Default setting
			// Certain planets have a chance of being substituted with another type
			if (p > 0 // Never replace first stage
				&& p < pInfo->numPlanets - 1 // Never replace last stage
				&& (p == hybridReplacement1 || p == hybridReplacement2 || p == hybridReplacement3))
			{
				RandomPick rp;
				rp.addEventuality(INVASION, 1);
				rp.addEventuality(COMETCHASE, 1);
				rp.addEventuality(SUPERNOVA, 1);
				rp.addEventuality(METEORSTORM, 1);
				rp.addEventuality(FEATHER, 1);
				rp.addEventuality(SUPPLYDROID, 0.5);
				rp.addEventuality(BOSSRUSH, 0.125);

				pd->perPlanetMissionType = rp.pick(&rng).index;
			}
		}

Didn’t believe you’d actually share it. Sounds fine though

[SA-GoldenBoss128]

Looks nice, sad for Boss Rush tho XD

Also iA, does Qualification & Knockout matches have multiple environments?

[reishuichi795]

More Balloon Chicken for regular breed & military breed.

@SA-GoldenBoss128

Knockout matches can, idk about qualifications

[InterAction_studios]

@SA-GoldenBoss128

does Qualification & Knockout matches have multiple environments

All Cup matches can

[GuestUniverse]

No key multiplier (Weekly Challenge), probably because it hasn’t been set for Hybrid. I’m gonna put an older video by oranz21 for comparison:

Can you have a look at this as well (key base multiplier in 120th Anniversary):

Early Access version 87

That is different because they naturally drop keys in, so no base multiplier is needed (they used to have in the past but was removed). Boss Rush is harder so instead of having no multiplier as originally planned, a +30% bonus is added later. I don’t want 120th Anniversary to have a large multiplier though, because it is repetitive, easy in Rookie and doesn’t take very long to complete. Choose a multiplier you want in 120th Anniversary: poll

@GuestUniverse

No key multiplier (Weekly Challenge)

That’s probably because in the past you could play it with SSH

@GuestUniverse

Choose a multiplier you want in 120th Anniversary

Changed to +100% in v.89 Idea
