Slime Salad

Looks like Battle 69 broke the internet YET again

Whatever happened, it destroyed the entire battle, leaving only the map intact. Yikes! Do you know what happened prior to the wipe?

math skill reported to not work.

Can you be more specific?

7 * 13 = 91

This is why I am not in charge of math. (Good news, though: I used Wikipedia's list of prime numbers when I was actually coding it!)

Malikia (B) attacks L2. PredictingJSH (C) takes 160 damage. PredictingJSH (C) dies!

Thanks. The other effects of Frog were being applied, but the attack wasn't being modified.

Sure enough. Infinite loop when a unit had more than 5 concurrent status effects. It's fixed, thanks.

Interesting. I notice that a level 91 unit might be better than level 92-thru-91 in going up against calculators, since they wouldn't be hittable with any of the level-based targetting. Height-based targetting seem like they could be pretty cool , and exp-based seems kinda random... but what about ...

It's not really the ability to target everything on the map -- it's the ability to do so instantly and without cost that makes the skill ridiculous.

So it turns out I might've been missing a break. Note on Math Skill: Your unit is not assumed to know abilities outside of his/her equipped skillsets. To effectively use Math Skill, the other skillset should be White, Black, Yin-Yang, or Time Magic. I might change this in the future, but for now, co...

Math Skill, Battle Skill, Steal, and Throw! It's v0.2a!

I haven't tested any of this! Am I crazy? You bet I am.

Steal and Battle Skill should be working now.

(edit) also noticed a bug where subsequent slow actions executing on the same clocktick would inherit the target list of earlier actions; this may or may not have killed Tim-Tim in #57

Oh, I'm not complaining

Some kind of cookie.

Start simple.

Some people might be born with that sort of talent. I don't know. For me, it's been a slow process over many years. You won't bust out VoM-style graphics on your first try; just go with what you know and improve your technique little by little.

It is talking about the combined value, yes. So you could have 40/30, 35/35, or similar. (I'm not convinced that's what Spoonweaver intended.)

@NeoSpade: I hadn't really thought of that, since it's not usually necessary. Is there a battle whose title you want changed?

He seems to know where he's going.
