I'm still lacking the score recorder program and would really appreciate it if someone else could post the scores for me.
This is the first time I'm trying a code map tournement. But is it me, or is Dragons of Autumn Twilight very hard or not doable to beat (with the 67.000K emitter)? If it is me, I would appriciate an insight in the tactics used to beat it, after the tournement ends ofcourse, for learning.
Thank you in advance,
Bram
Here's the mission list in a table.
Map Name: | Size: | Complexity: |
Dragons of Autumn Twilight | Large | High |
Dragons of Winter Night | Medium | Medium |
Dragons of Spring Dawning | Small | Low |
Dragons of Summer Flame | Small | High |
Dragons of the Hourglass Mage | Medium | High |
And I agree - the first map is quite hard.
Haven't beat it yet...
hmmm, I didn't look at the map very closely when selecting. Dragons of Autumn Twilight has a 67 million mini titan halfway down and a 131 million titan emitter 3/4 of the way down. If no one gets it in a few days i'll change the complexity to medium. Though there is enough space that I believe it should be doable with some proper energy management.
edit: Hmmm, I looked again and it only has normal build direction, it will be hard to build enough energy to attack the titan. The largest piece of advice I can give is to not open the chamber until you are ready. make sure you have all your research done and reactors built everywhere you can.
First map defeated. ;) Definitely an experts only map.
I'm going to hold the screenshots for now; but I'll give a couple of hints.
1. Saving some crystal energy is a must. I was generating and using about 83 energy at the end.
2. Save some AC. I was using 10% bursts on three charged makers with multi select while building the nullifier for the 131M titan.
3. Be patient; large chambers charged by a titan take a long time to drain even when beating on them with an army of launchers. (I've had entire tournaments take less time than this map.)
Congrats on beating it! I'm at 22 minutes trying to get the first big emitter and just getting swamped with creep every time. At least your times make me think there's hope if I just keep at it...
You're on track as long as you still have crystal energy. ;) You can't rush creeper that dense.
(You'll need to fall back two or three layers of shields after opening that mini titan chamber. It takes that long to wear down the pool.)
Once you can advance; combined repulsors and AC will help damp down splashes of creeper.
Impressive times. o.o; I'm just trying to beat it at all. Just breached the big titan chamber, at the faaaar upper-left corner, hoping to clear the rest of it and isolate the titan. Current time: 64:30. Yeah, I'm gonna be a bit. <.<
Edit: 90 minutes final time, but I beat it. That was all kinds of fun. Thanks for the "continual 10% burst" advice.
Still working on it. May have to start over : ( Using shields as a buffer was a great discovery though. Never done that before.
Thanks indeed Katra for the 10% burst advice, I useally go all out, but this works better in this situation.
Any bigger and killing off the titan would be rather.....difficult. As it is your pushing the limits of your energy production to do it. Im really not sure where the limit really is for titans with no experimentals.
I took longer than necessary it seems, but was hellbent on not removing a single tile I could otherwise use for a reactor. Every breach was one tile only.
Sat on 95.1 energy at the end, and had mroe than I needed. First time I played it, I got suckered by the tiny field in the bottom left, lol. Overstretched, was holding it all back, didn't realise I had a field helping me hold it back, and when it changed, i lost the entire bottom left, and it gutted my assault as I had no other blasters there to work on it, just launchers.
I opened the final chamber from the very bottom row, made my stand there, with one shield, 3 blasters behind it, and all the launchers I could squeeze in close enough to be useful. Had to back up about 4 shields, the fourth might not have been necessary, but it was better to be sure and have it than lose blasters and collapse with the chamber still at 30m+, lol.
And yes, i too had to rely on bursting the creeper. You have enough ore, and relics here that you can reach 345m stored creeper. So if you still have that by the end, which I did(largest titan i've taken down without experimentals so far, so I wasn't sure how much i'd need), don't be afraid to splurge, I used one in bursts, and in the end completely emptied another one for good measure
I actually had a harder time with the mini titan than I did with the big one. For the big one I just shot 6 repulsors up the hole and 4 diagonally at the same spot and was able to build the nullifier without even fully draining the pool.
The small one didn't have enough space around it to point enough repulsors. It probably could have went better if I would have used anticreep. I was saving it for the big one and then forgot to use it there too.

* Best Scores In Bold BlueScores recorded at 2012-04-18 18:22:41 forum time.Wheatmidge, better choice for colors? I agree the goldenrod is hard to see, and I found the two colors for 2nd and 3rd a little hard to tell apart too, so i tried a different color for third. Oddly enough, grey is darker than darkgrey......
Funnily enough, it was the mini titan that I put down without completely emptying its pool first, just layered repulsors and went for it, lol. tried a few times on the big guy failed all of them, so loaded a previous save and tried a different approach. Didn't think of pulsing AC initially though, or I probably would have cut it down in one of the earlier tries.

I agree the goldenrod is hard to see, and I found the two colors for 2nd and 3rd a little hard to tell apart too, so i tried a different color for third.
The reason for the three colors is to code first, second, and third place as gold, silver, and bronze (like the medals). Being shiny metallic colors, these don't translate well to the computer screen. The color of bronze, specifically, has been #8C7853 or #B8860B in past tournaments (it is #CD7F32 on http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bronze_(color) (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bronze_(color))). So there is no problem in changing the particular colors to make them more readable, but the whole point of the colors was to represent gold, silver, and bronze.
In your table, this is another way of doing the colors (only on rank and name):

We could also use the glow tag, which (on my browser at least) just is a background highlight.

Note-I used two colors of bronze just for comparison.If there's a color scheme everyone likes, I can go make the score program spit out the chart in that fashion. I've got something in progress right now (that's how I made those two tables), but I'll wait until the design stabilizes.
I debated doing just rank and name when i started making the full tables, because I intended to note the best scores for a given misson, and bold goldenrod isn't all that different from goldenrod compared to say, grey or the bronze we were using. grey and bronze aren't hard to read, but look almost the same to me when they are just text, if they had 6 inches of separation, i probably couldn't tell you which is which. There's no mistaking them with the glow tags however.
the second is much more readable, but far less aesthetic. im not much of a fan of the glow tags, its just a background highlight here as well
If we stick to hues at least similar to gold, silver, and bronze, then:
possible alternative colors?
a little bold mixed into the text to see how well it shows up in that color
gold | silver | bronze |
color=#FFD600 | This is gold, Far too bright |
| color=#C0C0C0 | Silver, A bit too light i think |
| color=#CD7F32 | Bronze from wikipedia |
|
color=goldenrod | certainly better than gold is |
| color=#808080 | This is the grey we've been using |
| color=#8C7853 | The Bronze we've been using |
|
color=#FF7E00 | This is Amber |
| color=#A0A0A0 | A lighter grey that is darker than silver |
| color=#B5671A | a Darker Bronze |
|
Of those, im preferential to the third of each. Amber is a bit darker than goldenrod, which I find just a touch harder to read than i like text to be. The grey and Bronze we were using are close enough that at a glance, for me, they almost look the same. The grey and bronze i use are my own halfbreeds. i met in the middle for a lighter grey that isnt nearly so light as silver is, and I moved 24 points darker on wikipedia's bronze.

just a touch darker than goldenrod, but it makes a difference I think. much darker and it stops looking like gold, any lighter and its back to goldenrod for readability.

* Best Scores In BoldScores recorded at 2012-04-21 04:16:13 forum time. Im sure if I kept toying with this post, I could come up with more variations on the same thing, but i've spent enough time on this for now, so, i leave you with 4 tables, all offering essentially the same information.
Im not such a fan of the second one, seems a little too chaotic. I think it takes the longest to fully interpret, finding each of 1st second and third, even though that information is essentially highlighted. The fourth one is the simplest, but also the least colorful/most plain. The third offers the most information overall, but might be too much for readability, I do like it though. i just wouldn't like to manually make another table like it, that took a while, lol.
Overall, I prefer the first one. Essentially unchanged from the previous tables, except using only shades of gold, silver/grey, and bronze. A darker gold, bolded for more emphasis to help it both be easier to read, and to make it much more apparent that its not bronze, since they looked a little too similar in color to me without the emphasis.
I think my preference would be the second one. I like that you can see first second and third on each individual map.
I don't have the scorer program but I think mopa42 is the winner. Congratulations! and you get to choose the maps for next week.
Oh hey I had forgotten about this.
Anyway, since no once else has I'll post the final scores. Not pretty colors since I didn't want to mess with that.
I'll hopefully have maps picked out for the next tournament by the end of today.
