I have no idea. I haven't played around with ROC since it TFT came out. Can you use abilities that have no effect? :confused:

(yes it is, lucky me I have off this week. :D )
In Roc editor there's no Ability editor, Import Manager, or anything fancy-shmancy. You got your Trigger editor, your object editor, and your map. lol.. :rolleyes:
I think I'll use a text-based system, with prompts when you're supposed to roll, move, or something else.

I got an idea.. The usage of dices is essential in a game of Risk. BUT, it is what makes the game slow. Im sure you know how long real Risk games can last.. Anyway, 1st idea is to put a timer on each player's turn. After his turn is up, then you move on..
2nd idea is you eliminate the usage of dice. For battles, units are "transported" to this mini arena where they whack the hell out of each other. What makes this different? You use a high damage difference that would make the attacks really random. Like for example, make one player's infantry have damage around 2 - 175. I think you get my idea right?

Yeah.. Anyway, Beta tester here available. :)

The timmer would be a good additon, but make it like if the player does nothing for 30 seconds their turn ends.

I think that the second idea would make it too far from the real risk and more like the one that is out already, which by the way I finnaly played. I liked it, but a real risk definatly needs to be made. :D

Yea.. I once had a game of Risk with my cousins that lasted 3 days. We literally played the entire time. We ate while playing.. lol
I'll definately put in a timer, to elimate the AFKer problem, if nothing else.

And yea, this is meant to be as much like the real Risk as possible, so I dun think the second one will work for it. Good idea though.

Thanks for the suggestions!!

-Keep 'em coming! :D-

3 Days thats you longest. Me and my 2 brothers play Risk every Chirtmas ana we once played for 9 days, but we had beraks of about 4 hours to sleep. I remember once we finished its was like 5 AM and we all slept till like 4PM.

But since it is a computer generated roll it should go alittle faster.
Its beceause they all hate you :mad: .
:D

You should make a site for it. FreeWeb.com :D
PS:Got my CD!! woot!!

That would be wonderful. :)
Do you have TFT editor? If you do, do you know if you can import images into a map and still save it as RoC? (It would be nice to have them as fade filters that show when you get a country.)
Also, the Mission Cards. I'd like to have those display for a certain amount of time, and then I'll create a text based system, so they can be like
Player: "-Missions"
Game: [Which One?] -Displays list of country cards for that player-
Player: "1"
Game: [Kill blah blah kill yellow blah blah]
Ya know what I mean? I can do the text system, if you can import the cards and such.

I'm very limited on time, so I haven't been working as much as I'd like to. I'll upload the map ASAP, though.
Thanks for the help :D

Even though its a very old thread but still I feel interest! Im sure the game has made already by OP. However can I get the link to play or purchase the game/software?

I'm quite sure there is already something made like this. The previous one was very slow, try find a way to make it faster paced or perhaps if turn/time based, then some way to keep the players busy and something to avoid players becoming bored.

However, I'd like to beta test. Sign me up.

    Crazy how much 3d printing has come in the last few years. Sad that it's not as easily modifiable though
  • Varine Varine:
    I bought an Ender 3 during the pandemic and tinkered with it all the time. Just bought a Sovol, not as easy. I'm trying to make it use a different nozzle because I have a fuck ton of Volcanos, and they use what is basically a modified volcano that is just a smidge longer, and almost every part on this thing needs to be redone to make it work
  • Varine Varine:
    Luckily I have a 3d printer for that, I guess. But it's ridiculous. The regular volcanos are 21mm, these Sovol versions are about 23.5mm
  • Varine Varine:
    So, 2.5mm longer. But the thing that measures the bed is about 1.5mm above the nozzle, so if I swap it with a volcano then I'm 1mm behind it. So cool, new bracket to swap that, but THEN the fan shroud to direct air at the part is ALSO going to be .5mm to low, and so I need to redo that, but by doing that it is a little bit off where it should be blowing and it's throwing it at the heating block instead of the part, and fuck man
  • Varine Varine:
    I didn't realize they designed this entire thing to NOT be modded. I would have just got a fucking Bambu if I knew that, the whole point was I could fuck with this. And no one else makes shit for Sovol so I have to go through them, and they have... interesting pricing models. So I have a new extruder altogether that I'm taking apart and going to just design a whole new one to use my nozzles. Dumb design.
  • Varine Varine:
    Can't just buy a new heatblock, you need to get a whole hotend - so block, heater cartridge, thermistor, heatbreak, and nozzle. And they put this fucking paste in there so I can't take the thermistor or cartridge out with any ease, that's 30 dollars. Or you can get the whole extrudor with the direct driver AND that heatblock for like 50, but you still can't get any of it to come apart
  • Varine Varine:
    Partsbuilt has individual parts I found but they're expensive. I think I can get bits swapped around and make this work with generic shit though
