SGW APPs API

[agapooka]

I have developed an API to add APPs to SGW.

My chat APP was just an example, but I've found a way to give it a permanent home in a player's account.

This way, you can add APPs to your SGW account.

A few examples of SGW APPs you could have:

1. A chat interface. (I already made one.)
2. A more advanced calculator, which can actually retrieve your current stats and detects your race bonuses, number of ascensions, etc.
3. An alternative GUI.

What kind of APPs would you want to add to your mySGW?

in light of recent events I imagine something that grabs a "snapshot" of your account status (ie ascension level, army make-up, stats, planets, etc.) every time you log out would be some what useful as a self-reliant back-up. It would only need to save the last one and override/erase itself each time it snapshots.

Would be good for things like what just happened as well as trying to prove any kind of mishap that may happen.

Just have to be careful - on the borders of automation.

Make something that can input mothership slots for free. That would be nice...

I like the user backup idea. The only problem is: where to save the data to? Data saved on a user's device is untrusted and data saved on a server that could crash can be lost just like anything else.

You mean, so that it automatically enters in the amount that you're missing, when you repair? Please extrapolate, if I've misunderstood.

Yup. And the border is where it shall stay, because I am not releasing the API. I'm just collecting ideas, so that I have something to do with the API.

I know full well the potential of my invention. I have already made attempts to advise the game administration and I will advise them of how they can further prevent the aforementioned border from being crossed.

I ment give us the power to change the coding so we can make our MS's as large as we want...

A tick box on your incomming logs page, when enabled, gives a warning sound for a minute every 20 seconds with a new incoming attack. (so 3 alarms in minute)

While masssing it can be disabled to prevent it from becomming annoying.

This could give peeps a bit more of breather space when they are watching their accounts and doing things when they are near their computer.
Should cause a lot more online fighting.

Or even better ... how about the think auto repair your wepons and mothership ? Ooooh nvm we have that allready , don't we ?

Rules of the game aside, this API would never be sufficient to modify any of the server-side scripting. It can modify any of the client side (e.g. in browser coding), which can allow for a different user interface, for example.

I was thinking of an applet that shows up on every page within the game. It constantly keeps you updated as to how much your weapons are damaged and there would be a repair button, as well. The repair button would have to be triggered manually, so I wouldn't classify it as "automatic". As for the information pertaining to how damaged weapons are, it can be obtained at any moment from the armoury page.

Then again, this idea would have to be approved by the game administration before I proceed with it.

Sounds good, but doesnt add to my proposal.
What I meant, so often that I got massed when: Making food, taking a dump, smoking a cigarette .. etc etc ... while I only stepped away for 5 minutes and been watching my account for hours in a row.

Generally because war war was involved hehe ... but it would have been great that you can get some audio message when your getting massed.

I dont care what the current state of my weapons are ... what I care about is; is someone trashing them while my keyboard is at arms length.

[agapooka]

That might be even easier to do...

I'll do some tests and let you know!
