[8.60] Internal bugs and suggestions

[NoradIII]

1. laser (long) and lightning magic (upgrade) "Abilities - Abilities" : "Upgrade Weapon" can be removed.

2. Rename ability bonfire to bonfire (upgrade). You wouldn't want to get messed up with 2 bonfires, wouldn't you?

3. death magic upgrade cooldown -0.14 instead of -0.13

4. soulstone damage still old 212 instead of new 282, cooldown for creep mode 0.28 instead of 0.42

5. the light fantastic (upgrade) damage 525 instead of 475 (no wonder it is so strong - I knew something was fishy many many versions ago) :twisted:

6. artillery/star shooter "ground mode" - change to "ground units mode"? Since it won't attack buildings.

7. Add star shooter tooltips "Attacks ground units only." in red.

8. Buy things with qwer asdf zxcv. This will prevent overlapping and fix the medivac and demolisher mixed hotkey as well as scout and sky tank.

Sneak peek: devil's curse/microwaver? hehe
Always a good practice to remove unused items for a better/faster map :mrgreen:

Might be a problem with english and german keyboards. You know, this QWERTZ vs. QWERTY thingie.

Ok, thanks for reporting.

[Tynkywinky]

I don´t understand your point with 1 & 2. Why remove upgrades?

[SCorpA1]

they are >internal< bugs, so you cannot noticwe them while playing bt. you onky can find them, when you hack the map. so NoradIII is a hackz0r

[NoradIII]

Just trying to improve the game
Noticed that the shortcut key for buying tanks in 8.61b hasn't been fixed yet.
These are the tanks that have same/mixed up hotkey:
scout, sky tank, light tank
medivac, demolisher
shredder, sky fortress
hunter, ghost tank
guard, goblin
exploder, earth robot - hotkey does nothing
Any considerations on the suggestion using qwer asdf?

there is still the problem with the third row...
american keyboard layout is zxcv i think and german layout is yxcv

[ChronicStoned]

yes, its yxcv.
additional keyboard problem(german keyboards):
a- attack
s- stopp
stopp hotkey is important, attack hotkey can be(creeps,tower)

[SCorpA1]

yes, its yxcv.
additional keyboard problem(german keyboards):
a- attack
s- stopp
stopp hotkey is important, attack hotkey can be(creeps,tower)

but thats not important, when you buy a tank, because the vehicle factory has no attack and stop abilitys

[DerSatan]

yea, every keyboard is different...

german:

qwer
asdf
yxcv

american/english:

qwer
asdf
zxcv

french/canadian/belgian:

azer
qsdf
wxcv

we wont find any hotkeys suitable for everyone

[Althend]

I just switch my keyboard from azer to qwer when i play btanks. (just press shift + alt)
