Wiggi's post made me wonder something... he said if two hunters land on a gem at the same time, the one who gets it is decided alphabetically. What happens in the main game if two hunters land on a coin at the same time? They each get half?

Interesting idea: give the gem/coins to the Hunter who has more life.

Yes, they get half - plus there is some logic to handle dividing it up if splitting evenly is not possible, but I do not recall the details here without looking at the code.

Hello all,

I like this idea, well done. Just a quick question - for merge mining using the daemon only, which repo should I be using:

https://github.com/chronokings/huntercoin

or

https://github.com/domob1812/huntercore

Thanks.

Anyone?.........

SnailBrain must be doing lame family stuff, so I inquired for you: use the chronokings/huntercoin repository. Domob's huntercore repo is experimental, currently being tested for mainnet release.

Exactly this.  Mine (domob1812/huntercore) "should" as of now be ready for mining, so if you are feeling lucky, you can try it - but it is not well tested, so only use with (a lot of) care.  For just trying it out you should definitely use chronokings/huntercoin.

Right you are, thanks for the info.

Just FYI, if you're planning to merge mine huc on sha or scrypt then you're going up against f2pool. So, unless you've got some serious hash power, you're probably bringing a spoon to a gun fight, and you shouldn't expect to find a block for a year or three.

Check the explorer and see how every coinbase TX goes to HPDTL... Pretty sure that must be them.

Huntercoin supports merged mining with both SHA256 and Scrypt?

Quote
Dual algorithm SHA256 + Scrypt - Each algorithm has separate difficulty, both are targeting 2 minute block time and are merge-mineable

^from the first post in this thread

Sorry, I swear that I read it and missed it!

Thank you anyway.

New binary release... (link in readme on github as usual)


betterQt_readme_addendum.txt:
Code:
New: Hit+Run AI (20160523)
(no source release for auto attack logic)
=========================================

  Purpose:
  - in thick melee (like 3 vs 3 in the center) it's better to keep focus on hunter positions and movement, and to leave
    the exact timing of "destruct" to the software.
  - attacking players will be less able to steal time and human attention


  Set a single waypoint (grey line) to become this hunter's "Hit+Run point".
  The client will determine 1 out of 3 possible states:

  "punch through"                            This hunter is cornered by the nearest enemy. Upon contact, the hunter
                                             will observe config:afk_ticks_hold, send destruct, and move to the Hit+Run point.

  "hit+run"                                  Enemy is attacking us from a direction that allows to send destruct immediately,
                                             and move away from it to the Hit+Run point.

  "cornered?"                                looks like a "punch through" situation, but not clear because the enemy is too far away

  Any click on an unwalkable tile will clear the current Hit+Run point. However,
  it's (probably) never a disadvantage to have a Hit+Run point set, no matter the coordinates.


oku is not one of the mentioned evil players, but this would be a good the perfect place for showcasing...



Yay Smiley



Mithril once asked who would get the gem in case of 2 hunters on the tile. It's the one lower in the alphabetically sorted player list, in this case oku.



not that much one could do...



it's possible to set the Hit+Run point while a tx is still pending






no need to touch the destruct button at all



adventurers.txt:
Code:
HGSeTEV5Cbg83U67na9hs9stiU5sCTfHg9          oku4      1.00    -

oku4 will keep the gem (they can't be looted like this)
and can now do "dumpprivkey HGSeTEV5Cbg83U67na9hs9stiU5sCTfHg9" and
"importprivkey xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx oku4 false" in another wallet,
transfer another hunter to HGSeTEV5Cbg83U67na9hs9stiU5sCTfHg9 and collect more gems.

At the moment uses are limited:
-look better with the outfits
-feed Huc price once per week, shortly before every full 10k blocks
 (the reward equals ~10% yield because participation is so low. 10% per week)
-dump them in the auction for ~2.5k
-and there's now the highly experimental pegged chronoDollar

Can we have hunter fee to 10 HUC or less
Make it as free game, then most people can make profit
Current rule and fee most player spent time but finally get killed and lost the coin once they join the game

It's worth discussing. Originally the fee had to be raised because some bots took over the map. Maybe we could make a 1-time faucet for new players

There was a short period in the past when you could, after disasters, race from the gates and loot the corpses of the dead for 10 coins each.
All along the way to the choke-points and back to base no one could kill you, so it was a peaceful but still competitive kind of noob arena.

the error i recieve is -


name_register is not yet available and the chronon glows in red sometime.

chronon- 27791 i guess so.

i cannot use the destruct and go button's since i cannot create a new player.

does this mean that i will be able to register once the wallet sync's ?

i am using the original huntercoin wallet client.


It's easiest to dl the complete chain from http://chain.huntercoin.org/ then copy the files over your existing, not fully updated chain.
This file is rather large, I used wxDownloadFastPortable on Windows. Make sure that none of the files is write-protected.
Then take a look at all 3 clients. (links in OP)

But the old Windows 1.3.01 release, or the GUI client built from source at http://github.com/chronokings/huntercoin,
is not one of them, it's more like a death trap. OP should be edited to clarify this.



is chronon some type of coin Huh i heard that you need hunter coin balance to start mining.??

chronon == block height
1 hunter == 205 HUC
1 destruct == 20 HUC
less than 20 rounds (400HUC) left == death wish

don't piss me off or else you will see the tigress
If you see chronos thats pretty good already. You have coins (>=2000 or so), and time (5 minutes per hour for 10 hours), chain is up to date (block 1232840),..whats the error msg when you can't register a name?

what kind of chrono's do you see? A "Destruct" and a "Go" button? Something changes if you click middle mouse button?

Which client are you using? MithrilMan is pretty good about walking people through things

technical stuff: Wink

if on windows, consider running 2 nodes as described here (ignore the hardlink part unless out of disk space)
https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.14073077

And related because it's a potential trap for newbies:
To make sure that all backups are valid, use a wallet only as long as the number of normal transactions (coins sent) + the number of hunters created is less than 100.
(this is the answer to the "trick question", the normal 100 tx limit like with Bitcoin is also true for creating a new hunter)
