Vortex Wars

Thought I'd start a single thread for any bugs found with the VW3 Dev version.

I noticed that the rating system doesn't appear to work right away. I was at 1499, won a game and gained 10 rating, and afterwards in the lobby, noticed that my rating was still shown at 1499. But if I log out and log back in, the rating is updated to 1509.

Not really a bug persay but I notice the rolls in attrition are not like they used to be. I noticed a lot of rolls get treated like hardcore, also all my years of playing ive never seen a 4 eat an 8, yet I ran someone over with a 4 using elves, no boost, no troop upgrades nothing.

4v8 is obviously unlikely, but it's about a 0.64% chance; 108 4v8 battles is enough for a 50% chance of the 4 winning some time. Unless you see it repeatedly I'd just take it for a single fluke.

And that could be, but the rolls do seem different in general, I am not the only person to have noticed this.

The code for battles hasn't changed in years. Earlier this year, I had it record the number of times each side of the dice was rolled to make sure the random number generator was working correctly, and it was.

I noticed that the rating system doesn't appear to work right away. I was at 1499, won a game and gained 10 rating, and afterwards in the lobby, noticed that my rating was still shown at 1499. But if I log out and log back in, the rating is updated to 1509.

I think this bug existed in 2.5 too. I will add it to my list.
