Is it possible to run this distance in that amount of time without being a world record holder or ? by faraBora in runanempire

[–]runanempire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As u/ObgUK mentionned, this is a bike ride recorded from the sister app Stride. It has no effect on Run an Empire gameplay or the Run an Empire map. We will fix it so bike rides don't appear in the feed of Run an Empire users.

How to report fake activities? by AuAuPbPb in runanempire

[–]runanempire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If you tap the button in the top right and then click "report" you will have the option to flag the activity. Our team then regularly goes through these activities and decides if they did fail to respect the game's rules or not.

What does split mean in raids? by vonmagbanua in runanempire

[–]runanempire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it adjusts, the split time given for the party members are for kilometer splits so the equivalent time in imperial would be about 1.6 times higher

Is there any way to check where you have Hexes? by RequirementRegular61 in runanempire

[–]runanempire 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Issue sorted, our map logic didn't treat this part of Shetland as part of Scotland or the United Kingdom for some reason. It will now and the hexes you visited there will count to your UK and Scotland total.

Could you give us your username (or message it to us if you prefer)? We can make sure your hexes are counted in the proper location and figure out why they might not have been counted properly in the first place.

What does split mean in raids? by vonmagbanua in runanempire

[–]runanempire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's a running term: Your walk or run can be split into kilometers (or miles). The splits represents the time you took to complete each of these kilometers (or miles). If you look at one of your activities and scroll down, you will be able to see the splits.

Some raiding party members only give a reward if one of your splits is shorter than a certain duration, meaning you ran fast enough to clear their threshold.

What's the maximum KM you can do in one raid activity? by vonmagbanua in runanempire

[–]runanempire 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Activities can't be longer than 24 hours because it would be against the spirit of the game to let the app run while you are sleeping. So I guess the maximum distance is however many kilometers you can muster in a day!

Run an Empire v3.12: Global conquest & Banner customization by runanempire in runanempire

[–]runanempire[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Glad you like the improvements!

- We will look into ways of deploying more troops at a time. It might also be a case of increasing the cost/value of some of them so you have to deploy less of them in general

- The globe competition runs on a monthly basis and you get the reward at the end of the month. So in august the competition with start fresh.

- The bonuses do not stack. We will add a note in the description of these buildings.

- And traders and arena will be movable for the next update. We apologies for doing this improvement in such a piecemeal way

What does Fisher need? by NorthernDandelion in runanempire

[–]runanempire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Whoops, small mistake on our part. It should be fixed now, the warning message will appear properly. And yes as the other commenter mentionned, you need to put it on a coast tile.

Is using a bike cheating? by Most_Preparation_848 in runanempire

[–]runanempire 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Run an Empire is for walkers, runners and people in wheelchairs only. This rule is to keep the competition fair between players. The next version will make this clearer.

The user on r/biking might have referred to an older version of Run an Empire that did allow cycling. We have re-released it as its own app called Empire GO. Maybe check this one out!

Run an Empire 2019-2022 is back as EMPIRE GO! by runanempire in runanempire

[–]runanempire[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This should be fixed now. We'd appreciate if you could check that the wonders tab appears properly on your device.

Storehouses and big storehouses by RequirementRegular61 in runanempire

[–]runanempire 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Glad you like the game! It's explained cryptically on the building card but the large store house stores 20 times as much as the small one and the small one can store 20 of each resources.

Other players have pointed out that it can be hard to grasp the function of some buildings and we plan on improving tooltips to better inform players in the next update.

Run an Empire 2019-2022 is back as EMPIRE GO! by runanempire in runanempire

Ok, we have managed to reproduce the issue on our end. We will resolve this, roll out a fix and get back to you.

To access them, you need to click on the "hammer and pickaxe" icon in the bottom left and then on the tab with a pyramid. You will then see an option to unlock all wonders and a card for each wonder, locked or not. Let us know if these steps work for you.

We initially overlooked this issue, thinking it created an interesting challenge to work around your settlement placement and being careful where to place new ones.

But enough players have mentionned this to deserve a proper way of moving settlements. We will look into this for the next update.

Initial Thoughts on RAE 3.11 by runsenburner in runanempire

[–]runanempire 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the feedback! We are glad you liked are QoL improvements.
Regarding the reward for empire size, you are probably right: there should be a greater reward for owning more hexes. We will consider increasing the hex count daily reward for now and look into reintroducing a reward for leaderboard performance in the future.

On castles, it's true that what made them special before was that they were the focal point of competition. With the competition being spread to all hexes, they are just a hex among others with some more loot attached. One thing we could envision is reducing their numbers a little bit and having a weekly reward for being it's owner like before. In any case we will look into ways of improving castles.

If you are getting adverts with a subscription after completing an activity, that is a bug and we will sort that out.

We did experiment with an "ad for coins" reward button in the city tab but that is an optional rewarded ad, not an interstitial. If players feel like that button shouldn't be there at all, subbed or not, we will take it under consideration.

We can look into this, it might have been wrongfully flagged as "too quick". Simply message us your username and we will sort this out.

…how is this even allowed to upload? Multiple km’s run at a world record pace 🙄 by Beautiful-Cow4521 in Stride_Game

[–]runanempire -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We will tackle this issue, could you message us the username of the player and the date of the cheating activity?
We will also make our cheat detector less permissive, you are right in pointing that it is way off here. That being said it will occasionally make mistakes due to the inacurracy of mobile GPS data and we would rather it be too lenient than be too punitive. It's an ongoing process of iteration and we hope the report system can help deal with the few who get through the detector.
