Scoring Page Questions and BBS Link?

[Dadtallica]

Couple thoughts on the sleek new scoring page and perhaps a BBS function I think would be cool.

Dale… would any of these ideas be something you would consider?

For the scoring page, I love the update, but I will admit even after almost 20 years. I’m not sure I understand all. I think I know how some things are calculated and what they are, but I don’t really know everything. I’m not sure if this is covered in a help page somewhere in detail, but perhaps a mouse over info description or some kind of help click for the scoring sections might be helpful to you and old alike.

In addition, would it be terribly difficult to add the scoring for counting the number of objects and the types that you destroy in each tour? As someone who regularly likes to jabo it up it would be nice to see how many vehicle hangers I’ve destroyed in a month or ammo, bunkers, guns barracks, etc. all the things. Possibly even the number of types of ordinance you’ve used if I’m being extra…

And while I was talking this into my phone, it also made me think of that you could possibly have your AI have a go at the achievement system. When I returned after some years, that was one of the coolest things I thought new from the time I was gone.

Could a link to the BBS be placed on the clipboard in one of the empty black spaces at the bottom left? It would be neat to be able to open it in the browser and access it while in flight. Like reading a newspaper on the airplane. It may also remind or introduce new and existing players to it as well. Of course, all of us in here would like more people in the pile to discuss things with, but that may not be your intention lol.

I only play this game so I don’t know what the other games community forums are like but it has always been a fave feature of mine . I even added it to the ending card of my videos.

There are certainly some things not calculating properly like K/H. I dont really know why the format had to change. I really liked the old page lol. It would honestly just be better to pull up the score on the website page if possible, without having to choose the tour. It goes directly the players individual score card for current tour.

I do like the idea to have a count/description of what you destroyed.

A forum button on the clipboard is a good idea as well.

I like the old page as well but modernization is always a good thing. I guess I didn’t pick up attention if anything was missing from the old side.

In the game if you right click on a players name one of the choices is "score" or you could use a dot code to type ".score name" and in both cases it would display that players score in a swing out page from the notepad. It was laid out like the scores page on the web site. Now the format has been changed, just something players will need to get use to. I think it was done to get all the information on a single page so you dont have to scroll.

I was talking about my original question of the explainers for the points categories, and the counting of objects destroyed.

The Kills per hour isnt showing right on the ingame score card. It only shows 2 decimals, same for the hit%. Makes it hard to compare sortie over sortie variances.

Just move the decimal point over to the right 2 spots. It is NOT posted as a percentage, hence the two position change.
