Hey, a couple questions about the combat interface:
1: what does the siege tower do?
2: how does buying cards in the menu affect game play?

1: I don't know but this is what a real life siege tower does:

Wikipedia wrote:
'A siege tower is a specialised siege engine, constructed to protect assailants and ladders while approaching the defensive walls of a fortification. The tower was often rectangular with four wheels with its height roughly equal to that of the wall or sometimes higher to allow archers to stand on top of the tower and shoot arrows into the fortification.'

So I think it might give archers a boost when attacking a castle and stop enemies.

2: I think you can only place cards that you have bought in the menu. The random cards are just for testing.

While I was doing some testing of the cloud system earlier today, I realized that there are some issues with case sensitivity. I know it would be possible to create a case detector with costumes, but having to run every character through it whenever you wanted to know the exact value of something would be both laggy and over complicated. Instead, I propose the alphabet

abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890`~!@#$%^&*()_+-={}|\:";'<>?,./ ôöóœøõèéêëēàáâäæãāûüùúūîíìçñ€£

which is 99 characters.

Declaring yourself to be operating by “Crocker's Rules” means that other people are allowed to optimize their messages for information, not for being nice to you. Crocker's Rules means that you have accepted full responsibility for the operation of your own mind - if you're offended, it's your fault. Anyone is allowed to call you a moron and claim to be doing you a favor. (Which, in point of fact, they would be. One of the big problems with this culture is that everyone's afraid to tell you you're wrong, or they think they have to dance around it.) Two people using Crocker's Rules should be able to communicate all relevant information in the minimum amount of time, without paraphrasing or social formatting. Obviously, don't declare yourself to be operating by Crocker's Rules unless you have that kind of mental discipline.

Note that Crocker's Rules does not mean you can insult people; it means that other people don't have to worry about whether they are insulting you. Crocker's Rules are a discipline, not a privilege. Furthermore, taking advantage of Crocker's Rules does not imply reciprocity. How could it? Crocker's Rules are something you do for yourself, to maximize information received - not something you grit your teeth over and do as a favor.

“Crocker's Rules” are named after Lee Daniel Crocker.

That's fine by me. Only thing is usernames of you opponent would be in all lower case e.g. jimmyrooster and –tumbled– and scratcherofworld.

I think I would rather see my opponent's username in lower case than have to deal with coding case detection into everything.

P.S. I changed the alphabet to include euro and pound signs and square brackets so it would be

abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz1234567890`~!@#$%^&*()_+-={}|\:";'<>?,./ ôöóœøõèéêëēàáâäæãāûüùúūîíìçñ€£

its because the scratch forums treat them as text code (to change some of the visuals)

I tried recolouring the troops for red but it didn't really work. View image on GitHub here: https://github.com/BobIsAGoldfish/goose-stuffs/blob/master/ColouringTest.PNG (I don't know why I put it there). How should we represent the type of troops?

I was just adding health bars (they don't work yet) and was wondering how much health different things should have. Give me your opinions.
The Health for:

Edge Tower
Middle Tower
Wizard
Skeleton
Fairy
Archer
Paladin

Also the damage per second of these cards:

Wizard
Skeleton
Fairy
Archer
Paladin

Finally the damage and damage radius of these cards:

Meteor Shower
Arrows
Lightning

No. You said a bit about the hp and damage which is fine. Can you fill in the list?

Sure! This is completely unrelated but can you reply to the comment on your profile?

I have a working Raspberry Pi based cloud server system. Stores 200K (or more) items of up to like 100 characters, case-sensitive, supports all characters on a standard English keyboard, can modify it to work for up to 100 characters.

So that might solve our case-detection issues.

I know I'm officially a designer. SoW, please change that.

For case detection, @26averyj had trouble making an encoder that was case sensitive ( https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/386106104/ ).

We already have a working server system. The server storage runs in python ( https://github.com/Kings-Defense-Team/Kings-Defense-Server ) and uses an input box to respond to clients ( https://scratch.mit.edu/projects/384292988/ ).

You are officially a designer. Where do you want it changed?

1. Okay, I have one that works.
2. Ok. Out of curiosity, are you using the auto gui thing to see when the local project changes, or did you find a working Scratch API with support for 3.0 and cloud?
3. Fairly certain that's what I said.

1. -
2. We read the https://clouddata.scratch.mit.edu/logs?projectid='&limit=40&offset=0 and then input server replies to the text box using PyAutoGUI.
3. You said you where a designer and wanted it changed somewhere. I said where. I am confused.
