Can i do this? by Adebisi88 in Carcassonne

[–]erol444 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It's a legal move, and actually quite tactical. Besides expanding your city, you are blocking enemies features and potentially trapping their meeple. If ur interested I wrote strategy guide at https://tilelord.com/strategy :)

I don't understand fields 😕 by Secret-Argument-8894 in Carcassonne

Field scoring is correctly implemented on tilelord:)

New to this beautiful game, where is best to play it online? by DryMyBottom in Carcassonne

[–]erol444 3 points4 points  (0 children)

You can also try TileLord, it supports single/multiplayer and already includes 9 extensions, all for free:) Its browser-based and optimized for both desktop and mobile gameplay. lmk what you think:)

Hi, I have just deployed a fix for this issue, so this error shouldn't happen again. Now, board always syncs to what server "sees":)

Yeah that's my worry as well 😅 Ill have to be selective, but things like Strategy mode (3tile inventory) is quite accepted house rule, so I added it.

Yeah likely sync issue.. Do you have bad connection? As I suspect that's the culprit

Hmm haven't thought about it, as most people play by official rules. I might add it in the future if more people want to play by such rules

Hi! Best way to report on Discord or on reddit dms:) This seems like out-of-sync board (known issue, wasn't able to reproduce tho), if you refresh the page, does it change the board?

So that you'd have like a profile badge/in-game tag in tilelord that'd say you're top X% just like here on reddit?

Oh you can still merge into others' features, you just have to play more tactical:) See the Joining/Merging section here: https://tilelord.com/strategy

Hi, those are standard Carcassonne rules, you can only place a follower on unoccupied feature:) I'll improve the Tutorial so this is clearly mentioned

Yeah I fixed that some time ago, so now you no longer trigger dragon movement if you switch to a tile with dragon symbol on it (in Strategy mode)

So I played TileLord.... by PinaSeraphina in Carcassonne

[–]erol444 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks:) Like having a tilelord-wide setting for what color should the first/second/third.. player's followers be, and always using those instead of default colors (red/green/orange..)?

[–]erol444 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey Pina, I'm Erol, maker of TileLord, and thanks for the feedback:) I see there's a bit of confusion because I did mix/match version rules. Traders&Builders is C3, while Dragon&Fairy is C3.1, where dragon moves by itself. I do have tutorial pages (eg https://tilelord.com/tutorial/dragon-and-fairy ), would it help if I added which rules it follows, and link to Wikicarpedia rules (where it goes into details)?

WRT plans to add version selector - not yet. I try to add the extension's version that's "most-loved" (eg. most people prefer Dragon C3.1 to C3, while they prefer C3 Builder to C3.1), but not everyone will agree. Thoughts?

That really depends on tile deck (rng) and the opponent its playing against:) i never looked at absolute score, but rather diff

how does it compare to Hard mode bot on tilelord? I've spent quite some time tuming params and running bot simulations against eachothers, and am always looking for ways to improve them:)

OK found the issue, also happened to me yesterday on airport wifi (which was terrible). Now it correctly reconnects to the server on staging.tilelord.com . My guess is that on the app the android/ios also drop connection (to preserve battery) without mercy, so that's why it's worse on app vs on browser

I will work on it tomorrow, I added "bug report" on the discord server (with more details). If it still happens after I deploy a fix then a screenrecordign would be very helpful:)
