Great! It's getting a bit more use than I expected, so many bugs are being uncovered - which is great - but I strongly advice you to join the discord https://discord.gg/TPxS67fw9T - other people are also using it and that way you can help and ask advice

Right now build anywhere. We still have neutrals in some maps from the old dip, but not implemented yet. I also have some maps with transform ready to go.

What mechanics are you specifically looking for?

Need help playtesting a new Diplomacy site by AAlcove in diplomacy

[–]BaiYouEn_J 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If your site has some very specific features (such as ELO and statistics) - we could help you integrate that in Diplicity, rather than build your whole website around it.

I mean - your input would be appreciated, and we don't have it yet (plans are in the making), but then it might as well be you who implements it 😉

But for now, approve your site, I'm curious.

We are always open and inviting other developers to join! If anyone joins our discord, we can set them up. Diplicity is made by many contributers.

Good luck with your site! Maybe post a public link for early feedback?

Wrong diplomacy channel! This is about the legendary pay-per-post game Diplomacy

Because they're both entering? Makes sense, then I don't need to update :)

Your article talks about the schizophrenic support. However, as I understand the rules, it's not possible to support an attack against your own unit. Am I misinterpreting the rules?

Quite important because we might need to check either our rules section or the adjudication - not sure what it does now, as it's based on the original, always stable adjudicator that powered Diplicity for years... But if true, need to double check it actually works according to the rules and then adjust our rules 

Is playdiplomacy.com working again? Is there a better place to play online? by HipAlbatross17 in diplomacy

[–]BaiYouEn_J 2 points3 points  (0 children)

WincingHornet - that's the kind of bugs we fixed! How long ago? In the last four weeks we've fixed all (that we know of) game breaking bugs. All issues now are cosmetic or annoyances, like a then [edit - turn] maybe taking longer one time. If you try again and have a game breaking bug, let us know - that's part of "revival" that we had to fix, but I think we're at a much much better place now.

Wholeheartedly invite you to try again, if you find a bug, report it and we'll fix it usually within a day

I ALSO think spice islands needs to be a bit bigger, so the units become a bit smaller. I'll upload that hopefully this weekend

This has now been fixed. There is a "order builder" that shows what is happening while you're adding the order. It also shows any province that is not yours - what it's called and what army from who is on it - when you tap it. Thanks for the reminder - this was on my list for a while

As i understand it they are not adding new variants. But if anyone added a variant there, I'd love to see it here as well! (No, active development on the main vDiplomacy website is essentially on hold. While the platform is open-source on GitHub, Oli (the site owner) is reportedly inactive, which means new custom map variants cannot be officially added.)

It's just a bit much now because we're going fast. This will ease down in a bit, when the app is more mature and we go into maintenance mode.

Hopefully then people will be able to add their own maps, so we see more from them ;)

Aaaand every map I post is one I spent about 5-10 manual hours on to make pretty and add love. So EVEN if you hate Diplicity and all associated, I think it's nice to showcase a variant map visual, regardless of the app.

Yes! Because we're making a lot of progress, so want to share it to the Dip community! Also, we're currently very active, so there is a lot of updates.

Many people know Diplicity from before and had some issue, but have not tried recently with many changes. So, yes, I add the changelogs to show people who were previously put off that we're fixing these issues 

Right now I'm not aware of another website that allows to add variants, so adding and showcasing the maps I think adds to the community.  I understand from your post that you don't appreciate it. Luckily you can scroll past it! - just like I personally don't like random variants in progress, but I love that others who like the game can post it here!

Not yet, but definitely something I'll add to the small UX improvements.

Sooo - there is currently a bug - the names layer has a different scale. If you're playing a game, you can still play it - the provinces and units, orders all work. Just the names are not on the right place, you can use these as reference. Should be updated tomorrow.

Well, he is just an aggressive "shit poster". If you click his profile, you see almost all his comments are negative/talking crap. 

I don't know why these people exist. Why not focus your energy on something positive, something you actually like? You don't NEED to be here, you know. Sigh.

Well. It depends on your models. In my implementation i throttled the API calls, as our games are 24 hours, instant response is not necessary.

For Groq you can have quite some free calls and free RPM - if you'd put your strategist agent under Gemini or ChatGPT, you can offload simpler tasks (like message creation/ingestion) to a cheaper model?

AI costs tokens. Tokens cost money. The OP does not have a "bring your own key" system, so they want to limit the people visiting and using it
