4 Quality of Life improvement ideas - Let's discuss your wishes

1. Except resource levels are fluid. They change constantly (or should be). So when your merchant arrives the data is no longer relevant.

2. If you haven't seen that you're producing too little resources to run constant troop production then you don't even have a 1 hour training queue. I question the logic of adding this information.

3. Was literally discussing ROI last night. It might be useful, it might not. Irrespective, if I need more crop I'm upgrading the crop fields....

4. I would support this for kings and dukes. If you really have a hierarchy then it is no issue at all. Already exists as an option for secret societies.

5. Could u change hero production so that we could choose with 4 slidebars.

It would be suberb if we could match hero production with those troops we train.

I know it is not good for Travian Games GmbH as u lose some npc gold.

*on the behalf of all robbers*

6- It should be possible to filter attacks and raids seperately on rally point.

I'd like to start with #4.......I 100% vote NO on this.....this option could and would be horribly misused for potentially nefarious purposes......This game already has that ability in SS groups.

7: Remove the troop influence bonus in Oases. Its a complete and utter waste of troops......coupled with the fact that it turns into a troop pissing contest to get that top % bonus. Influence in Oases should at the very least be population based. Perhaps troop bonuses could be baked into Oases by some means...maybe by your population.....the higher your population the higher the bonus....with a cap of course.

8- Being able to Edit/Delete own messages.

1: idc

2: no just why!? anyone should max it asap

3: no I want this be part of the game, thinking about things I build, troops I train and more. also it make a difference between players who think and who just spend like crazy.

4: yes but with ability to deny info, like how we do with tributes. also it should show the sum of troops including parked and troops that are on the ways. otherwise it's just USELESS with wrong info.

5: yes even checkboxes works too (checking one resource for 100%, checking 2 for 50% each etc...)

6: yes

1 Total balance of ress income. Crop it cood show income and if you hover over it gross production.

I like the hall of fame, i cood use some improvments. But i dont think you shod stopp makeing the forum posts.

Hello all, I was the original poster. Let me add my thoughts why I asked Georgi about these features.

1. It's mostly about when you settled a new village and your warehouse is small in your new village. Your production overflow would not matter if you send 50-100 more resources. Maybe my memory is bad but sometimes i have to recheck 2-3 times how many resources I can send to develop my newly settler village faster.

2. It is not about stopping leveling the unit production buildings. It is more about the resources fields and extra support villages.

3.Feeding an army is more important than ROI, you can not NPC resources all the time to feed your army. It is about the resource fields. For example: wood from 13-14 cost ~117k resources and will increase your base production by 140 (420 on speed). Even on speed that means it will be even after 278 days. Of course with oases, sawmill and Travian plus that number is much less. Let say you can double your wood production, that still 139 days on speed server. You may can spend those resources on other village resource fields or army. I don't think it is wasted but these resources could have been spent more wisely.

4. If you don't want to show your army to your king that relation is not too healthy. SS exists but that will show troops only in villages. Active player will use they army for raiding / sitting in oases for extra income.

I'd continue with new but I think I already read them months ago somewhere here in the forum.

9. As a pure defensive governor sometimes it is difficult to deal with the robbers. Some option would be nice to provoke the robbers to attack or rethink the algorythm how the units calculated in the robbers so pure defensive units would add less units to them. But still waiting for 36(?) hours is a long time. It could be helpful for offensive player as well. They have to stop raiding for a bit just to gather all units and they will still lose 5-15% on robbers (siege is better but that will lose some time from raiding).

I missunderstood your question Georgi, so will rather give my opinions on the questions you asked.
Before that i belive you shood rather fix things things that get abused like:
Banned player abuse, and an easy solution
Or deactivate refocing of grays.

1. "When sending resources to my villages some indicator would be nice how much resource can I store there. (like I have wood: 650/4000, a number would show I can send 3350 wood)"
   Answer: This changes so fast with incomeing ress from raids and other trades. So then it need to accurat inclued everything, i belive it will be abit excesive.
   
2. At baracks/stable or workshop at the bottom where there is a white space now, the required resource production per hour could be added to see whether I need to level up my barracks for the current production or not for the selected unit. For example: If clubswinger for a given level of barracks takes 30 seconds to produce, there numbers would be there: wood: 10200, clay: 7800, iron: 3600. It would be helpful to balance the level of military building production with resource production fields.
   Answer: Sound okay, but not usefull becaus it needs to involve barracks,GB ,stables ,GS and workshop. without it gives a fales picture. Other improvments shood be focused. if you deside to implement something like this look something like this.

3:
Some ROI calculation for the resource fields, I think most of the players thinks higher the better but after level 12 it could take 20-30 days to produce the resources it was invested into the upgrade. Of course this ROI depends on connected oases bonuses, travian plus and resource production bonus buildings.

Answer:

Positive no players have buildt to hight only to low.

4:
Could the king be allowed to see his/her own kingdom member's troops somehow without using getter tool.
Answer: Yes

Georgi: "For the future, please post your suggestions in this forum section so that we can discuss them together."

Everyone: Posts it in this thread

But @Topic:

1) I genuinely wonder, if everyone arguing against this really thinks it's that bad, or just is a confused guy hating on everything but his own ideas. To all the guys saying "resource balances changes permanently", well, maybe you get returning raids in your hammer village(s), but for all side villages, new villages as well as def accounts it provides great benefit. Maybe I'm the only one, but I usually play in two tabs when distributing resources - one for the current village to check storage, one for the resource source (capital or farming village) to send resources. When building up residence/academy for chiefing, giving new villages a push, preventing accidental sendings in the wrong village, send resources to train (def-)troops, helping out building the last few resource field levels in an almost finished village, etc., it's definitely useful. For the other cases, just ignore it?

2) Again, this information is quite useful for def accounts or when training scouts. Obviously it's useless for off accounts and gaul-deffers who train in both, barracks and stable. I'd probably rather use it to set up traiding routes more easily than to check if I have to upgrade barracks though. To avoid confusion, tie it to some mouseover or button though, that also has some explainatory text to it.

3) Not sure what exactly ROI means, but I assume it's the (cost / benefit) number. One issue with that is, that it's rather misleading and it doesn't necessarily have to be the best option to build the stuff with the best ROI. E.g. cropland 10 is "worse" than cropland 9, but, at some point you will have to upgrade one cropland to 10, then finish grain mill level 5, then bakery level 3 (I think) - before finishing the last few croplands to lvl 9, if you want to be at most efficiency. So, similar to 2), if it's implemented, it should have some explainatory text to it.

4) I dislike auto-info-sharing, even if it had some opt-out. Opt-in variant with SS is more protective imo.

6) Cuervo IIRC they said they're working on a rally point overhaul, so thumbs pressed.

7) SacredLegend The problem is, how do you want to determine whom to put on #1, #2, ..., if neither population nor troops? Also you might want to be able to interact with the ranking, to get the most out of it for the kingdom - or in some cases give up some 5% to make your friends not feel too bad about it.

9) erdé Yes, it's 36 & 72 hours. But yes, it feels counter-intuitive to have to build some sort of off as deff account. A trigger button would be indeed nice. But it maybe should just attack own troops (no reinforcements), otherwise offers will just let def accs make their robbers. Would kinda suck for them?

I say just leave it population based.....If you dont want to build villages around your capital or whatever village has the oases bonus....thats your perogative .....just know you may not end up with population influence.

Bottom line is .....troops shouldnt be wasted sitting an oasis....ever!

Quick link to the farmlist

Georgi you got my proposal right.

Quote from Georgi

Hey guys,
thank you for your feedback so far! There are some very nice suggestions which will be noted down along with your thoughts

hey SacredLegend and thank you for joining the discussion. Would you be against such an option if you, as a player, could deny this information from the king(e.g. similar to how the tribute system works)?

Display More

Yes, absolutely.....when you deny tributes to the King it usually pisses him off and he will typically look for a way to recoup those tributes anyway he can.

Overall i think it would be a system that would/could be abused....too much power for a King.......BUT if it were a voluntary format(like upgrading the SS group to accommodate) rather than something you can opt out of......would be a better implementation.

"Regarding the oases bonus - this is more of a game suggestions rather than quality of life improvement but it will still be noted and maybe we can start another discussion about it and other ingame changes suggestions, what do you think?"

That would be great, Thanks.

Quote from Georgi

@everyone Would this be a viable solution for players that are reluctant to share such information at first, or found themselves in a new kingdom?

Opt-In (i.e. you need to explicitly activate sharing): Yes

Opt-Out (i.e. it's activated by default and you have to disable it): No

Quote from Georgi

• Make attacks on secret society players to be visible on map

I think that would be helpful but would decrease the sense of a kingdom.

Right now there are 2 advantages to settle inside a kingdom border, to get crop for stolen goods and to see incoming attacks. If SS would be enough to see incoming attacks grant some other advantages to governors who settle inside a kingdom.

Quote from Georgi

• Make attacks on secret society players to be visible on map

Do you think this will be useful to you? Is it possible for such an implementation to cause confusion with the kingdom attack marker?

Yes! 100% yes.

I am one of those players that "wander" at the start of the server.....so i may not be inside kingdom borders....my fellow teammates have come to accept my nomadic ways,......I always have sitters, but if my SS members could see attacks on my villages outside of borders would be a great addition to the game.

I do understand Erde's point of view, but this feature if it were made as an opt-in might only be used by a select few teammates.......perhaps SS groups can have multi-functions.....like the proposed SS/GT's option.....and a option to see attacks on players in the SS....1 or all of these options can be designated by the SS group starter.......its also possible to change the SS attack marker.....or even just a new color....so not to be confused with Kingdom attack marker
