Rise of the Engine
« Topic Start: August 24, 2011, 08:15:37 PM »
I am working on the game engine and it is making good progress.

If you log into the game, you should see details for your characters, including some XP and energy they have already accumulated. You can spend XP already, but the "+1 per hour" part doesn't yet work, and I will likely clean everything out for launch, but you can play around and become familiar with how everything works.

The most important part is that you can "research" - aka submit to the GameMasters for checking - new spell ideas. We are looking forward to your spells, and your contribution will not be in vain - every spell remembers its inventor. I don't yet know what good that'll be for, but it does.

Again, much is still unfinished, among other things, the GMs can not yet accept your spells. But all of that will be coming very soon.

I tried to change my password in the game and it wouldn't let me... Anyone else having this problem?

I successfully did it earlier today... are you sure it didn't change?

Password change worked for me today.

On another note - on the spells page (http://lemuria.org/SM3/laboratory/spells) would it be possible to have a link to the spell description in the list of spells?

Password change was broken for a short while, so try now.

Good idea with the descriptions. I've added a tooltip for them to show now. :-)

I just tried changing my password. No luck. It reloads the page with red error boxes telling me "The current password field is required.", etc.
If at first you don't succeed, don't take up skydiving.

Got the same problem as Indirik, can't change my password. It just claims I haven't filled out any of the fields. Tried it in Opera 11.50, IE9 & Chrome 13 so it's unlikely to be a browser issue with the javascript.

Incidentally the page is somewhat broken in IE9. The navigation div takes just a wee bit too much space so the main div appears below the menu, albeit still with a left hand margin. Fonts are quite normal as well, so I suspect IE support isn't your biggest priority :)

Ironically enough this problem has spread to Battlemaster too.

Same thing happened after I registered and then tried to log in. It looks like the Login button is actually going to the Register script, and then it's noting that not all of the fields required for registration have been filled in.

I just signed up and got my password. Get the "wrong email or password" message whenever I try to login

Same here on Firefox 3.6.20

If I remember correctly, IE support isn't a priority at all. I remember back when I used it and every time I logged into Battlemaster I was greeted with a "you are using an unsupported browser, please upgrade", or words to that effect. :P

Oddly enough, SM now likes me and is letting me login.

Yeah, it's letting me login now, but still get the red text and empty fields when you go to change your password.
