Army System Restart. - This time back it up so it can be restored.

Get rid of army system on trap17's main domain. Set up a hosting account specifically for army system. army.trap17.com or something. Then install IPB and army system on that. People that want to play can go there and register to play. Disable all posting and other junk on that forum and just enable army system. Set up a cron job to backup the database every day. This means the data base can be restored without affecting trap17.

That should work. It would be too bad though if the two couldn’t share the same shout box. Still, I would like to see the bug fixed. In the mean time well, it is not up maybe I will get over my addiction. Probably not biggrin.gif.

I talked to Nilsc about this. The problem was that members will have to register again. And I also know that, most of the members started playing because they were already registered and were expected to click the army link and check out. But I doubt any new members will make that move.

However, I was thinking of the same. Also, I had decided to get most of the mods off like Arcade, member bar, Kenka etc.. Mods really make it hard to upgrade the forums.. :-S. After about 2 months, I will be uprading the latest forum version available.

I also tried linking the boards database. Everything worked fine except the fact that the templates information are stored somewhere in database too. So If I link the database, the templates really screw up the layout. also, If we decide to put only one small ad on boards (only for army), due to linking, I m afraid members might shift to this new board even for posting.

I can understand that Army system is a wonderful game and even I was enjoying it. Infact, today I came online (7:15 AM) just to use any cash I have earned to purchase some defense weapons. But the screw up has really pissed me off... Also I think that these mods can be very dangerous and can also give illegal access. I don't want to leave any door open for exploitation.

how about making a site of a gme like this "army system" instead of forums..like koc.. but add maybe some better features.. but this would take a lot of time and would need some good programmers.

And you'll lose the profit of posting for money / units too. The army system has made me a lot more active here then before

Im only posting because of the army system biggrin.gif Besides, seperate hosting = more loss of immunity to exploiters with less hastle because of the less users and since it will be fresh... well I can see where this is going to go.

NEVER GONNA HAPPEN. AS goes from this server, alot of people will stop posting! And that's bad!

Welp, very good idea, but I doubt it'll happen. It would just be a job to get it done, and the admins don't need any more work than they have...

well yeah its true you would lose the post for cash and troops but if you get rid of that and just increase the per 30 minutes and it shouldn't be really a problem but yeah it would take alot of work just to move and the people to keep tabs on it

well they're alot of people on here and the most of the mods know how most of the army system works but its up to the man though.

Grrrr it's been reset again. It is getting really annoying for me now. Making a new domain specifically for the Army System wouldn't be a bad idea and I am up for it just as long as we don't get anymore annoyings bugs which mean we have to keep restarting. mad.gif

i don't quite get what you are saying.  you keep saying it is too much work.  For who? Saint Micheal already has an army system set up.  Plus, it isn't really that hard to install army system and ipb.  I already said in my previous post that trap17 people don't have to set it up.  Just assign someone to be "Army System Admin".  I am sure you will get volunteers.  I'll say it again, taking the army system out of trap17 will be LESS work for trap17 admins. 

and i don't get how you like the way the army system is right now... you like it getting reset every week?  you think setting up an army system is too much work but fixing the glitch is less work?  You aren't making much sense.

I've said it before, and I don't really want to, but I'll say it again. It will be too much work to put it on a new server, because we would lose post4stats abilities, and even if we could tie it in, it would take time and painstaking debugging, most likely. And we would lose many of the posts and shouts here regarding the AS.

And I said I like it the way it is, but it would be much better without the glitch, but I don't mind all that much, because it is just a game, after all. And yes, fixing one glitch is not that hard, we just have to -find- it. Setting up army system on a different server would require post4stats database relations, double user-signups, and other stuff I can't quite think of right now.

And please, don't talk to me like I'm an idiot. It annoys me, so so much.

Not gonna happen, most likely. It would just be too much work, and there would be a whole bunch of unnecessary modifications and such. I really don't have any problems with how it is, but having that glitch fixed would make things a little more fun.

Or we can put it on a seperate AS only system and make a forums where if you post it will add on to your gold and since it's all AS.. Well if what I said ever happens then we need to seriously add in A LOT of new stuff to this game.. like unit upgrades ( Barbarian soliders to Soliders to Musketeers to Assault Infantry ), you get the Idea. Other then that, the posting activity will be very dead tongue.gif

That still wouldn't fix the glitch though, and would require lots of time and effort...
