Post any General Bugs and Suggestions you may have. You can still post stuff in the threads that pertain to the topic, but having the general ones in here will make it easier for me to keep track of.

Abercrombie
Abidah
Abigail
ableh
Abomination
AbsoluteZero
Acacia
Acelynn
AceoStar
Achelis

Think the userpages stopped updating too :/ That really puts a damper on my tracking dev

Yah the userpages are kind of annoying. Even when they have been updating they have been doing some weird stuff with images.

You think KRU would ban my server's IP if I sent them a email everytime I tried to update but the userpages havent updated? tongue.gif

I doubt it, the website you and Berig are running is useful to players and probably something they should provide more data for.

If mug/KRU Interactive really want to make them useful they should pull live data. It's not very stressful on the systems.

I can promise that for a fact (Baram does this) and I know their servers are never running at even 50% capacity, so a few database queries is [Content removed] all.

Given the popularity of SA in its prime and the increasing popularity of the new SA, I would highly recommend KRU to fix the userpages to update regularly, because this is something lots of people enjoy. However, I've gotten the impression from mug in the past though that he doesn't see the userpages as a particularly necessary game feature, sadly.

Along with game balance, ingame(not itemshop) new features, events, updates, graphics....

I'd suggest to make those who do not show stats have the "too scared to show" image, not just those without userpages.

haha, good point, but I can't ditch my fellow chonnies. Also, I'd be required initialize the player class each time I show an image which creates additional overhead instead of just pointing to a single image. smile.gif To reduce the load, I could just check the stats for that player but thats one more query than needed.

Fun fact for those web devs out there, this code actually works for showing alternate images when the first doesn't exist. Sadly, I had been missing out on this for a while :-(

CODE

onerror="this.src='/images/noshow.png'">

Or you could cache it and grab the images from a local cache directory. That way, when the server is fetching data it sets a flag as to whether to show the character image or not. As for the chonny thing, they've always been afraid to show/tell stats, there's no solid RP that I've ever had explained to me as to why game mechanic statistics are not allowed to be revealed. Also, you could also just simply say something like... if (subpath=Chongun) { display userpage image } yada yada.

That's actually what I'm doing now, but the check to see if the image exists or not wasn't working quite right, and thus I killed off those A userimages smile.gif What I would need to do to accomplish what you said is just store separate images here based on the already known $player->vita, since the player data has already been stored as an object at this point.

CODE

if ($player->vita == 0 && $player->subpath != 'Chongun'){
save('skeerd.gif')
}else{
save('$player->name');
}

YEah, I could easily do that on the userpages since I'm already loading the player class anyway. Or when actually saving the images like mentioned above, But on the front pages I just pull the names and then link to em. If I did what I mentioned above that'd work fine tho.

Either way, I wanna keep as many true images as I can to improve the feel of it smile.gif

Yeah man, Berig showed me this the other day and I love it. No more file checks for trying to show alternates smile.gif

Yah that's helpful.. I normally check the headers to see if the image is an image, but this should be a little less intensive.

Suggestions:
An "Everyone" list. If this is too intensive, then maybe a Top 200 or 250 list would be nice. Right now the closest thing to is the Sam san list, but it would be nice to include those high stat Ees and Ils.

Also, a StatAddicts power list.

I think both of these were on the old SA, and maybe they are on the new and I just missed it tongue.gif

On the player pages in the calculator section, perhaps an additional field that would give you an estimated new ranking after achieving the desired stats typed in. It takes the new powerrank level and compares it to the current list and see what rank you would be overall.
