[u][b]Original post located at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=435170.msg4780963#msg4780963[/b][/u]

Cost Per General (aka Hunter/Human Miner) = 10 HUCs. Moves Cost >0.01 HUCs

[b][color=red]WARNING >> DO NOT STAY IN SPAWN AREA FOR MORE THAN 30 BLOCKS OR YOU WILL DIE[/color][/b]

[color=red]IF YOU ARE HOARDING COINS > IT is recommended you do not using your savings wallet as a playing/gaming wallet.
Keep your savings wallet encrypted and backed up and do not store a significant amount of coins in your gaming wallet.[/color]

[b]Huntercoin - 1.0.11e - [color=red]Warning - First time start will take some time.[/color][/b]
add Daemon Warmup Message
add wallet filename option (specify a wallet)
improve/fix fragmentation issues when syncing on NTFS - should provide some performance benefit.
Name_list crash fix and performance
Implement UTXO-based tx verification - utxo.dat will be created upon first start, this process may take some time.
This should help pave the way for future pruning.

[b]UPDATE - 1.0.11 Mandatory Update (HardFork)[/b] - update before block 255k
[color=red][b]WARNING[/b][/color] - This update will rebuild some files (blkindex.dat and game.dat) - on some systems this may take several hours. The Process will also use up to 2.5GB ram. I'm Uploading chain for those that do not wish to do it
You can monitor debug.log or run the daemon with -printtoconsole=1 to monitor the process. [b][color=red]Make a backup of everything first. [/color][/b]

[b]Remove unused data from blkindex.dat[/b]. It will be rewritten on first open and certain data removed. This should reduce blkindex by quite a bit - this process takes quite some time - maybe hours on some systems. For more information see: [url=http://forum.namecoin.info/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1757]http://forum.namecoin.info/viewtopic.php?f=8&t=1757[/url]
[b]Implement "Cleansing"[/b] - aka Poison Disaster - Disaster will first occur on the Hard Fork Block. All Generals on the Map will be infected with a plague and will be given a random life span of 1 to 50 blocks. Following disasters can happen 1440 blocks (approx 1 day) after the last
disaster. There will then be an increasing chance of disaster maxing at 12 days.
[b]Add Remaining Life Span to QT[/b]
[b]Increase General Cost[/b] - 10 HUCs per General
[b]Remove starting Hunters[/b] - You will start with only 1 General (you can still pickup hearts for additional Hunters).
[b]Add toaddress argument to name_firstupdate[/b] -  can be used to assign a player to a specified address with firstupdate.
[b]Implement name_update in createrawtransaction[/b] - can be used for atomic trading of names.
[b]Various Performance Updates and Fixes[/b] (too many to list - see commits on github)
[b]Add checks for valid player name in name_new[/b]
[b]Add length check to IsValidPlayerName.[/b]
[b]Add coinAmount field to players in game state[/b]
[b]Add game_getpath RPC command[/b] - Create a new RPC command game_getpath that makes the internal shortest path algorithm accessible to front-ends.

[b]Known Issues [/b]-

Slow Syncing - Namecoin has the same issue. It is being worked on slowly. 2 Ways will be fixed- 1. Reimp on Libcoin (months?). 2. Play via centralized server (months). - way to sync faster :- use ram drive, SSD.



[i]Note:

You can click config and :

1. Set Reward Address >> This allows for better co-op sharing of spoils.  They can, for example, go into a guild (companies?) bank/wallet - Websites could be created which monitor all this information, and it can be split appropriately.

2. Transfer Hunters >> You can put in a friend/colleagues address and transfer your Hunters almost instantly -- useful for shift work ? or just to transfer from one machine to another (home PC to work PC)[/i]
