Topic: [ANN][HUC] HunterCoin - Human Mine-able Crypto Currency GameWorld - page 6. (Read 38459 times)

When the miner mines a block he will get 5 coins, like normal.. also A Total of 45 other coins will spawn in random locations in the areas on the map... the player walks over these coins and they go into that characters balance (not normal wallet)..
The player needs to take them to a bank (alive) to convert them to normal crypto currency..

There is nothing to spend in the game.. you pick up coins and cash them in (without getting robbed)...

It may be better to say:

5 Coins per block go to the miner
45 Coins per blocks worth of Ore spawn in the game.. in order to Smelt this Ore into coins, the player needs to bring them to the bank..

Which map do you like best? (or none?)
and why? think about that this is a strategic map.. and the aim is "mining" coins (albeit manually [until some bots maybe will take over?]).. also  "being able to easily monopolise" and the opposite "never getting killed" (trapped?) needs to be thought about..

my map making skills are not the best.. but it should look better than a chess board .. we don't want to make it complex (chronokings may have a giant map).

If there is a lot of input maybe I will make a poll thread...

251 x 251 (tiles) (4 hours to cross the board.. slow game) 502x502 Map
4 Colours (RED, GREEN, BLUE, YELLOW) - spawn locations on the sides.
You cannot attack your own colour.
Chat is integrated (can chat once per block per character)
Banks in the corners (we are still debating 2 Banks or 4)..
Each of the "pocket" areas will generate coins...
The current idea is 50 coins per block... 5 Coins go to the miner, 45 coins go into the game... if someone is killed without banking, the miner gets 5-10% of the coins.. when a player banks the miner receives 10-20% of the coins -- (TBD)
The Central area will generate 10 coins per block.. the rest 1 to 3 c/b.
Click to Move
Select Multiple characters at once.. (to be able to transfer all characters, move all characters or set reward address)
Pathing
1 attack kills the enemy.. at first it sounds like a numbers game.. but 1 player cannot really control more than x players without being in a "team".. also there is the possibility of "leeches" ,people of the same colour who leech your harvest areas.. bots may be a problem eventually.. but we can ad some more complexity/ability to make it harder for them).
Map is zoomable with mouse wheel

Images removed..

GUI looks like this atm:

Cool idea. I will definitely be monitoring this idea (and hopefully participating)

4 Colours (spawn locations on the sides)

Probably will be the final map:

Looking forward to the game, hopefully its free to play

we can do dice roll DnD style.. but it won't be in huntercoin..

Huntercoin is going to be very simple, and very very slow. Getting coins is going to be time consuming... maybe you will create 20 characters, point/click a harvest nodes for each of them, then go afk for an hour or 2, then come back and send him to go somewhere else (or the bank)... this is assuming you don't get attacked and robbed by bandits

soooo cool keep us posted have you talked to Eric or thought about D&D type dice simulation implementation?   thank you for this!

Interesting concept. Looking forward for further info!

sounds interesting

thanks..

we will go with it if we can get a decent pool to merge mine it from the start

miners can mine coins too.. but the majority of the coins will come from the game.. and "taxes" will be given to miners.. so mining will still be good to get coins (except maybe the first couple of hundred blocks)

We tested merged mining with the early chronoking prototype thanks to the help of Eligius pool... hopefully if it's ok they may accept this version.. if so we will keep as SHA256, so will be asic mine-able.

always enjoy fresh additions to crypto-currencies

I've been waiting for this.

So only CPU can create random realities... this would be very GPU-resistant?

yep this is why we have left it for now... like you said, if someone waits too long they risk missing a move

Very interesting project. I can't wait to see the arms race between game devs and bot devs
(which is a good thing of course)

The "Also achievable, but omitted in our prototype implementation:
Fairness — players cannot see moves of other players for the current timestep, until the game state is advanced"
part is probably not necessary, if players delay their move to see other player's move first they would risk
missing their move, when next POW block is generated before they expect it.

well i'm all for new ways involving cryptocoins keeping this in my watch list

maybe scenarios is not the correct word, maybe "events" (transactions)? (edited)...

but--- the 2 events currently are:

• Death (player will drop coins he has looted if he has not returned them to the "bank")
• Player returns looted coins to the bank.

How do you plan on preventing people from focusing on just making these scenarios happen?

more info coming soon
