I am getting my head around my old code and currently in the process of rewriting big portions of it, I have already got the items and such working with brand new code which vastly simplifies how everything works and my code is far nicer to understand at the moment. I wrote DemigodDB without understanding Objects or Binding in JavaScript (It's a wonder I got it to work at all), so the difference here is like Night and Day for anyone that understands JavaScript.
Once I have finished cleaning up the code and rewriting portions I will get cracking on adding the new Demigods and fixing items/abilities that have changed so far to get the site up-to-date. After that, who knows what will happen, this is my small tangible and obtainable goal for now.
Rediculous Features That May Or May Not Ever Be Added Depending On Demand:
- Save/Share Builds
- Compare/Swap between different builds
- Far more advanced calculations in terms of the calculator, factoring minions, towers, etc
- Ability to include proc'ed or activatable item and abilities effects rather than just passive ones.
- Ability to turn a build into a guide, allowing the user to attach replays and text to their build, perhaps even the functionality to have the abilities page have a "show build order" button, and then each ability will pop up in order of level, or simply just provide a list of the order the abilities were picked when the build was made which is displayed to the user.
- Anything else I can think of or is suggested.
I think you should update the page, if you find the time . Btw. if you need financial assistance for your site, you could make a little donation button there. I am sure at least some people would gladly support your effort with a few Euros or Dollars .
Financial support isn't really the issue, I just didn't want to fork out the money for the domain if I really didn't need to. It's a fairly low traffic site, not very expensive to run.
The modding is done with the .lua code that is contained within the dgdata.zip. It is a fairly straightforward language. The nice thing about the UberFix is that every patch is pretty much separate from every other patch. Even contributing one little fix is enough to help out. We'd really appreciate your help if you decide to help out. The current bugs, the todo list, and some basic introduction to modding are all available in the UberFix thread in the modding forum.
I'll consider it, I will have to get re-accustomed with the LUA to make the updates to DemigodDB anyway, we'll see how long my motivation lasts.
Hi UhelligGudn,
it would be amazing if you could update demigoddb . I also tried to contact you a half year ago or so if you could do such, but my tries werent successfull. I tried it via http://www.backwardshypothesis.com/contact/ .I guess we all would really appreciate an updated calculater, so if u find the time you would make many people very happy.
Thx man for showing up again, best greets da micro.
p.s. in the time when ur site was up-to-date, it was a must for me to plan my build and setup before i started the game...i really miss those....
Yeah, the blog I used to run quickly got over taken by spam bots and such and I lost interest etc it wasn't a very good blog I've had a few PM's here on this forum about it also however I really never had the time or care to follow them up unfortunately. I appreciated peoples wanting to help but the code is fairly complex, and it wasn't very well written so I wouldn't really want to pass it on to anyone to help out anyway.
I found your thread about wanting me to update to 1.2, I feel bad now that you were all waiting for a reply that would never come. Alas, at least I found it now, hopefully your wish will come true soon enough.
