We are working on a new expansion for a bot in game. It will be a PvP bot and battles will have a "buy in" to do tourneys and duels. People in the iraid bot will also be able to !bid points on who they may think the winner is. However, we run into a issue.
We can't do something like this until there is a FOR SURE way to stop someone from using OSBs. We cant have 100's-1000's of points up for grabs unless you can ENSURE people are selfed buffed. Now I have a few ideas on how to do this.
1. A friend and I are both programmers. We can make what we dont have.
2. A ncu program "see all" is also floating around and about.
Can I get from funcom a answer that inst the generic "EULA" agreement copy and paste as a resolve on this? One of the hardest twink games ever made and I think its INSANE that there is no "real" way to have a fair duel in AO (that you can be sure of)
We propose two options! Please give us answers on both!
1. We use the "see all" ncu application thats already been going around for years (that FC said they would support in 18.7 patch)
2. We make our own 3rd Party application that just "sees filled NCU". In otherwords, we wont see the NCU buffs, but instead just see the "Number of NCUs filled".
So before duel starts we can see (000/650) Meaning there are no buffs and that person can now buff for their duel. (240/650) means there are still buffs left in the NCU and the person must clear them before they can buff and duel.
There has to be some compromise made. There should be some system in place to get a fair duel.
Or a decontamination zone for players to go in and out of without rezzing?
