Version 38

Post by FTP-ashario » Thu Dec 20, 2007 12:14 am

Estimated deployment date: Thursday 20-Dec-2007

Included in this version

Variable fatigue hits
The amount of fatigue a player receives after a match is now linked to his actions in the match. Expect a player who scores a century and then bowls 10 overs to receive a larger fatigue hit than a player who gets a duck and then mopes around in the field for the rest of the day.
Keepers will receive a slightly higher fatigue hit from fielding that other fielders.
Captains will also receive a slightly higher fatigue hit from fielding that other fielders, to reflect the extra mental toll captaincy has on a player.

A big thanks to Butlee for helping me out with the various formulae and calculations involved in this new feature.

Buying membership for another user
Up until now, you could only purchase membership for yourself. As of version 38, you will be able to purchase membership for other users. What a _brilliant_ christmas gift that would make :wink:

A couple of extra things implemented

Invalid Bowling Orders
If javascript was turned off it was possible to allocate the same spell# to multiple bowlers.

Player Details Popup
Quite chuffed with this one, mainly because it took hours of faffing around to get it right :). Hovering the mouse over a player name link when in the squad, training, transfers, scorecard and commentary pages will cause a little popup window to load. The popup contains some additional info about the player that isnt directly available on the page you are viewing.
