---> roughly three thief kills. šŸ¤”
Tchalvak
I guess itā€™s good to have an antidote as an option. Letā€™s see what the cost is about equivalent to
Tchalvak
Yeah, I actually donā€™t totally like how easy it is to get unposted, but then again maybe because poison is real powerful (could be 24 hours of damage
Mr_Deadpool
100 stone Gold for the antidote - abit hefty
Tchalvak
See the news page: https://www.ninjawars.net/news for the same info.
Tchalvak
So if you're just returning, it's probably going to require a password reset. šŸ˜ž
Tchalvak
It shouldn't have done that, but for some reason the password hashing algorithm was not coded the same via the database against the same password hashes.
Tchalvak
Also! I apologize, but I think that the latest database upgrade reset passwords across the board. They are stored unretrievably, but after the database upgrade on 9/29/2024 for people to get back in may require a password reset.
Tchalvak
I'll try to change it later.
Tchalvak
That water dripping sound that I added to the full heal was not the right choice...
Tchalvak
so strike is the non-duel attack without any dueling additions, while on the fight page the default ā€œattackā€ became the ā€œduelā€
Tchalvak
In the future it would be nice to have defensive strategy of whatever kinds (e.g. using items to protect and defend against attacks), so I want to move more towards making ā€œduelā€ the default, but for now there is still the option to ā€œstrikeā€
Mr_Deadpool
Strike vs attack w/o duel function: difference? whats the mechanism behind each or are they the same?
Tchalvak
šŸ‘
Mr_Deadpool
will do, Coco
Tchalvak
Hi! I just did a major database upgrade, so if you find some problem (even with login), email me at ninjawarstchalvak@gmail.com !
Tchalvak
Well, in the meantime, for something different, Iā€™m trying to think up a mascot for Ninjawars, something that I can use to represent the game as a whole
Tchalvak
So I closed it down and gave the skills to higher levels (kanpo)
Tchalvak
additional 5th class but I wasnā€™t able to balance it out so that it had enough combat skills to be balanced against the other classes.
Tchalvak
Wellā€¦, I guess I should have responded to that with ā€œtrickyā€. We used to have a Grey class, @beagle made that
Mr_Deadpool
when will Gray Shinobi become a factor?
Tchalvak
Yeah, clan cleanup on solo clans (there were a bit too many solo clans hanging around, I only allow them because obviously for the first day or while every clan is a solo clan, but the intention is for clans with 1 member not to continue to exist
Bravos
my clan disappeared :/
Tchalvak
šŸ
Tchalvak
Haha, fair call
Mr_Deadpool
Gray Shinobi
Tchalvak
So I am up for trying a new class, which one should I try next?
Tchalvak
each turn.
Tchalvak
The working in the field is meant to not be a good trade-off of time for money intentionally. Itā€™s actually possible I should decrease the money gain there even more. Bounties, other PCs and NPCs like the merchant are meant to be more bang for
HellHound
adjust stats so using different weapons has more of a roll, shurkiens vs red ninja does more dog than vs blue but least to black. something to that effect
HellHound
make it worth while to kill monsters for drops other than thrives and samurai for that juice scroll he may give you but have one if them drop a mushroom
HellHound
this would make it so new players could get money to start but not want to rely on working even if they could get up to say 150 per turn cus killing a merchant is better but could end up killing you
HellHound
it would be nice to change up how certain areas worked, for instance going to work in the fields has never made sense for the cost to gain ratio, but if you made it so that the more you worked the more per turn you would get and cap it out
HellHound
good lord, 15 years ago and this wasn't even my first account. to bad the mechanics haven't been improved to much. same old grind for no real reason. just nostalgia for what use to be a bping chat room with a basic ninja game attached to it.
Tchalvak
Villager in the early levels perhaps.
Tchalvak
I think one thing that helps is killing mobs, the thief mob especially, maybe sometimes the merchant.
Mr_Deadpool
store away as many dims as possible
Mr_Deadpool
** : stay in the shadows & avoid higher ranks - onl;y strike when its advantageous
Mr_Deadpool
psmall incremental gains: daily attacks & duels
Mr_Deadpool
plan for long-term
Tchalvak
Any game tips to share?
Tchalvak
Hey y'all, so if you have any interest in joining the ninjawars discord, DM me and I'll get you a link.
Tchalvak
Heh, yeah
Mr_Deadpool
quick question: (assumption) collecting enough shell fragments could potentially be used to build the famed turtle shell of lore.. ive defeated the samurai endless amount of times and have yet to collect on a turtle shell ...
Mr_Deadpool
great update on the intro page :) looks great
Tchalvak
All a matter of capacity.
Tchalvak
: )
Mr_Deadpool
... "Hmmm" .. last i checked you were the developer .. or not O,o
Tchalvak
Hmmm, item that may have a future use
Mr_Deadpool
".. shell frgament": whats that about (been meaning to ask as Ive dispatched quite a few of these guys)
Mr_Deadpool
You obtained Shell Fragment!
Mr_Deadpool
You kill the Ushi-Oni with 4385 damage.
Mr_Deadpool
very nice (thumbs up)
Tchalvak
What do you think of the new Oni? ;)
Tchalvak
Iā€™ve thought about holding events at certain times, but havenā€™t been able to do the work for that yet.
Tchalvak
Hmm, well, the bath house talks about that a bit these days. Syncing people up at the same place one is a tricky problem though.
Owlet
does anyone play on here anymore?
Mr_Deadpool
badazz**
Tchalvak
Haha, all the locations are going to get a picture matching the general description, so all the map nodes will have an image within the week.
Mr_Deadpool
the foreman from the working fields looks just like Zangief
Mr_Deadpool
thats sick .. the picture you posted in the Shop .. wicked >:)
Mr_Deadpool
its almost as if im entering the turtle lair : Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles
Tchalvak
A few updates incoming. Expect downtime for the next 5 minutes as I upgrade the database. Also, I am moving the whole site over to https, so expect the regular url to start redirecting to: https://www.ninjawars.net in the near future. : )
Mr_Deadpool
looks very clean & well organized : Professional Shinobi : almost feels like a Hitman type of vibe :)
Tchalvak
E.g. https://snipboard.io/hcbg0F.jpg
Tchalvak
*** for the game part itself.
Tchalvak
Tho it will look more like https://nwave.ninjawars.net for the wall
Tchalvak
Yeah, thatā€™s the upcoming homepage. I actually am working a full site refreshā€¦
Mr_Deadpool
https://splash.ninjawars.net/
Mr_Deadpool
>>> wat n the F*** just happened O,o
Mr_Deadpool
odd & neat at the same time
Tchalvak
That was me. We had some spam signups, so I had to deactivate a lot of those random bot accounts, and then reactivate others. I know itā€™s weird having everyone back as like zombies. šŸ§Ÿā€ā™‚ļø
Mr_Deadpool
Jonesat & Nightstalker .. badass
Mr_Deadpool
& so has Twilight ... brings back memories of the good ole' glory dayz of ole'
Mr_Deadpool
CaptainNoob has resurrected :)
Tchalvak
Welcome!
Mr_Deadpool
Lol : about time some housekeeping is done : Kill list looks so much better >:)
Tchalvak
They regenerate over time. Or if you stockpile Amanita mushrooms.
tnanime
how do i get turns?
Tchalvak
So there should be more new users coming online in the next few weeks. Still more for me to do, but itā€™ll help for now.
Tchalvak
I finally got signup fixed up to use the new system.
Mr_Deadpool
have I gained Ultra Instinct Unlimited O,o
glassbox
Some bounties up
Tchalvak
Anyone have some interest in assisting with some game development for an hour a week? DM me if so.
Tchalvak
Refreshes are back in action
Mr_Deadpool
looks very nice - abit clustered but it'll do
Tchalvak
hiccup this morning with the server
Tchalvak
Hmmm, some downtime this morning, but we're back now.
Tchalvak
Well thatā€™s not showing the right display yet on mobile.
Tchalvak
Hmmm
Tchalvak
: )
Tchalvak
http://www.ninjawars.net/map
Tchalvak
Map updated with the new building illustrations, more work to come in the future, especially with the village square.
Mr_Deadpool
about time .. release not beta either .. the real deal, Jonin **
Tchalvak
Currently working on an update to the map, coming soon.
Tchalvak
Maybe I should decrease that.
Tchalvak
My, the freeze penalty for cold steal is harsh.
Tchalvak
There was a bug with new regeneration code. Fixed now.
Mr_Deadpool
just me or are the turns increasing at a slower pace now O,o
Tchalvak
Pages, you mean, I guess?
Mr_Deadpool
used to be 23 now its down to only 8 max
Mr_Deadpool
the list needs to revive at a greater capacity
Tchalvak
Hey, so anyone have any feature requests? No promises.
Mr_Deadpool
.. Keep it up*
Mr_Deadpool
great. Keep up - you're doing a fineee job.
Tchalvak
And still working on the signup breakage myself.
Tchalvak
Iā€™m getting a guy to create some new pixel buildings for the map as well.
Tchalvak
A bit of prototyping a new map: https://www.facebook.com/100063969463901/posts/pfbid0217YEZqZwFX5HUdMc7N36XHNHgHVLhNBB4m7s313opMAWvS5jDnTSwJi4cThZyumCl/?mibextid=cr9u03
Tchalvak
Well, I plan this weekend to do some cleanup, fix signup so we can get new players back in, and maybe I'll get time to do some more changes as well, we'll see.
Tchalvak
Wow, long time.
Mr_Deadpool
Welcome back, Shinobi **
Meant4War
It has been years since I been here
Mr_Deadpool
Ninja lord : I have enough enemy to keep me pre-occupied for now - no rush
Tchalvak
Have to essentially rip out the old email system and replace it with a new one, and it's been taking me weeks, but I finally got maybe halfway through it this weekend.
Tchalvak
Currently I'm trying to fix some major bugs that are preventing new players from coming in, so I can then ramp up some new player recruitment, but it's a killer of a problem, so it's slow going.
Mr_Deadpool
revive rates .. that suxxz ..
Mr_Deadpool
does anyone recall CaptainNoob :) f**cki*n legend!
Tchalvak
: )
Tchalvak
Revive rates decreased.
Mr_Deadpool
v ~ 18 years total O,o
Mr_Deadpool
Initially, I began roleplaying in 2004 under a different nom de guerre
Mr_Deadpool
I started roleplaying in this game in 2007, 15 years ago.
Tchalvak
I started working on the game in 2003, 19 years ago.
Tchalvak
& back
Tchalvak
Rebooting the server...
Tchalvak
Heheh
charliezard
I check in here and there, kill some ninja, and see the same names consistently in the chat. So I just wanted to say thanks :)
charliezard
Idk if I've ever typed in this chat. But I signed up to this game 13 years ago and it keeps popping up in my head as a nice piece of nostalgia. There's a comfort to it
Tchalvak
I guess Iā€™m going to say ā€œthe merchantā€.
Tchalvak
Haha, good in the game, I mean.
Tchalvak
Hey, so what is the best way to make money?
Tchalvak
Alright, seems like itā€™s working then.
Mr_Deadpool
I can see "upcoming changes" in all 5 browsers ... usually if there a feature i cannot see its on the stainless browser but even there its showing .. hope this helps
Tchalvak
Just curious, can others see the ā€œupcoming changesā€ content in the footer?
Mr_Deadpool
* <-;,...,;-> *
Mr_Deadpool
Ive attempted to re-recreate & duplicate .. no luck yet
Tchalvak
And this annoying little chat bug (I doubt I'm the only one)
Tchalvak
I really need to update signup...
Mr_Deadpool
quicker than expected .. upgrades tend to take alot longer ... flawless
Tchalvak
Server upgrade should be complete now.
Tchalvak
So expect some downtime this week as I upgrade the server.
Tchalvak
...which means it's time for a whole OS upgrade (because the current OS has reached end of life).
Tchalvak
The server has been running really well and fast lately....
Over_Medicated
Bright side is, ibfeel good and have some of the craziest pics youll ever see. Catheter with two hises in my jugular amd now the one in my gut. Science is fuckin crazy
Over_Medicated

Over_Medicated

Over_Medicated
Im still in the fight. Got my new stomach catheter. Its weird as fuck. Theres a hise that comes out of my stomach and i have to fill upnwith some flyid amd drain it repeatedly all day. But im feeling better every day.
Tchalvak
Oh damn, sorry to hear that. We're all growing older.
Mr_Deadpool
hopefully your situation makes a turn for the better here soon
Mr_Deadpool
in such dire straits - an yet you think to stop by on Ninjawars .. wow that right there is amazing
Over_Medicated
I just wanted to stop by and tell you guys in case i so coming by. It's been like a decade of fun with ninja wars. I appreciate it so being up. I'll keep checking in as things progress. Hourly i get out of here soon
Over_Medicated
Hey guys, I'm on bad shape. On my third day of dialysis headed for 4. Kidneys have failed and they had to tap into my jugular for emergency dialysis
Mr_Deadpool
great :)
Tchalvak
It'll come down soon.
Tchalvak
Thanks for catching that, I have a typo fix pending here: https://github.com/BitLucid/ninjawars/pull/1278
Tchalvak
Dang it, no.
Mr_Deadpool
its purposely mispelled... id assume
Tchalvak
Thief version 2 added to the game.
Mr_Deadpool
... really Tchalvak... Gold spent couldve bought much inventory ..
Mr_Deadpool
worth a try .. Lvl 400.
Tchalvak
If you want?
Mr_Deadpool
[thumbs up] lvl cap increase coming soon
Tchalvak
Iā€™m back in operation.
Mr_Deadpool
hotspot ... hotspots .. anyone O,o
Tchalvak
Moving into a new house! So it may take a while before I get internet back.
Mr_Deadpool
*<-;,..,;->*
Mr_Deadpool
tried and get that issue fixed ["Stealthed Ninja Mode"]
Mr_Deadpool
10-4
Tchalvak
By the way, recruiting of newbies is paused for a bit until I can get this email and signup upgraded & fixed up, then there will be ā€œweekend spikesā€ of incoming people after that.
Tchalvak
Well, what happened is that messages used to just be text, so any old text string could be put in there, but then it got attached to names for some reason, so we donā€™t get the ā€œfrom no-oneā€ events any more.
Mr_Deadpool
.. is that something doable n that we can work on making happen, Tch-
Mr_Deadpool
alternate wouldbe tojust haveit read: "You have been poisoned by A Stealthed Ninja about 5 hours ago."
Mr_Deadpool
when someone attacks or fire bolts or poisons someone elsein "Stealthed Ninja" mode .... Do Not have there handleright next tothe message .. defeats the purposeofattacking from the Shadows/ in wanna be "Stealthed Ninja" mode
Tchalvak
Resets on the hour, or if you die, or if you get slower.
Over_Medicated
What is considered a first use?? Do i wait 5 minutes before it resets? Ten? Do inhave to kill some one?? Did i miss a memo somewhere??
UglyNasty
18 naked cowboys at ram ranch
Tchalvak
I mean 6.
Tchalvak
First use is always 8.
Tchalvak
Only after multiple uses.
Legend
Mushrooms only give 2 turns now that hurts lol
Mr_Deadpool
thats quite a shame
Tchalvak
Well, due to a glitch in login/signup, new incoming players are paused for now.
Tchalvak
šŸ˜€
Mr_Deadpool
that's if you really wanted.
Mr_Deadpool
although, 1 keystroke and you most likely could erase my entire NW history of existence
Mr_Deadpool
but, 1 single movement of my hand and you're done
Mr_Deadpool
not bad for your current rank >:)
Mr_Deadpool
sadistic are we .. the tiger salve was just to prolong ..
Mr_Deadpool
11 stars & 47 Fire scrolls later... you really are something else, Tchalvak
Tchalvak
Iā€™m working on a full JavaScript fight page, which would help a little because it would always check the server.
Tchalvak
Ok, that probably still happens because the backspace takes us back in time generally. Itā€™s generally a ā€œcachedā€ view of the page.
Mr_Deadpool
must have been a bug in the previous layout - Tchalvak has "fixed" that sort of thing ..going in a completely different direction
Bravos
the way this website is set up is once you load the website then everything is loaded together... if I wanted to refresh the page I would have to manually click the refresh button
Bravos
so what im taking about is when you kill someone then you click back (to go back to the previous page)... it still shows that they are full health because the page does not refresh on every click
Tchalvak
And you would have to actually -find- people to fight them.
Tchalvak
Part of what I am working on is letting people be in different locations on the map, so that you would see different people at different spots on the map, in which case eventually the list would likely become read only
Tchalvak
I donā€™t exactly know where youā€™re talking about using backspace.
Bravos
if i could backspace then i could actually break my fingers!
Bravos
lol
Mr_Deadpool
and ONLY then will you reach lvl 276 >:)
