Topic: Add in Date for War to nap agreement when signed ingame.

You often time get a nap agreement that will have a set date for war arranged but atm there is nothing really stopping people from being dishonorable and cancelling earlier.  I think that in the official nap screen when choosing the length of nap there should be another box added and programmed to where a nap cannot be cancelled till AFTER the date that is put in.

When the date is put into the ingame relations system you can put in the date of the agreed war date and relations will not let you cancel that nap till after that time.  Sometimes war dates get renegotiated but this would give time for the wardate to atleast be pushed backwards or you can have it where if both families cancel it, it will allow for earlier war date.

Something like this could atleast help reduce some of the attempts to violate agreements.

That could be on way.

The other is to just not let NAPS have date agreements?

I mean, why do we want to condone the people who are wanting "EOR wars"?  Why do we let fams "line up" their wars?  Imo, keep it to the ingame system as is, which allows any cancellation.  That's the dynamic we want.  We WANT people to be cancelling on each other during the round.

If you make agreements beyond that, you're welcome to - but you do it at your own risk.

People will have dates even if you ban that though. They will do it offline and then it just leads back to this same problem

I didn't say to ban it.  I said just not make it part of the game.  Like why make such agreements, when there's always cases of people not abiding by them?

Although I agree with you about the dates thing, I don't believe we can code in everything to prevent 'dishonourable' actions.

I mean, what about fams cancelling on another fam who has just come out of war?  How about a grace period of 48hrs on top of the cancellation??

Players will always find ways to circumvent certain things.

Re: Add in Date for War to nap agreement when signed ingame.

well torqez, i believe that EOR wars give top families and alliances to duke it out at the EOR after establishing them as powerhouses in the galaxy. Give it a real bang at the end of it all. If there is a vast difference in economy at the beginning of the round, like how your previous family was leading at the start, it would have been a real walkover in the war and the round ends up being boring as the war is short lived. By having a war later to the round, wars are made more exciting as more shares are gained.

Thats my 2 cents

Re: Add in Date for War to nap agreement when signed ingame.

dsup, you and I have both had awesome share wars during the round.  Just cos it's a war at EOR doesn't mean it's necessarily more fun than a war with shares during the round.

Infact, we used to pick our share war targets, based on how it would get us more and more shares with someone else.
