Inactive kingdoms

Jets

It would appear a few kingdoms are inactive. With the vacation mode, I was thinking that if a kingdom was not active for say....30 days, it could be deleted by request of a prov mate, automatically, whatever?

DougEfresh

either that, or they can be attacked for their last castle

Jets

DougEfresh I agree. But some are already way out of range already.

Can we add, if we don't like someone in the prov we have an option to kick em out.

Nolio

If they are inactive we could have them become excommunicado then range won't matter

Jets

@Lord Thane @TheKeeper I did my part. I leave everything to you. I am aware that the keeper is busy the next few weeks. This was just my attempt to have foresight

Lord Thane

I built an admin tool for this, but since I hugely increased the login lifetime the other day we can't use any of the old login data, I made a new method of tracking player activity that starts today just to use for this tool. I built in excommunicado for it too so we can easily run that, and I spiffed up the hall of fame to show kingdoms affected:

So now we won't make an announcement about Excommunicados, they will just show up in the KHoF and whoever sees it sees it.

Jets

Lord Thane excommunication deletes their army and doesn't allow protection still?

Lord Thane

Jets I don't know about their army, I haven't look at the code how Keeper set it up yet, but yes it should prevent protection.

TheKeeper

Lord Thane protection is ignored, also tiks and doesn't apply KS penalties nor KS more than 50% rule.

What if there is a kingdom in a prov that’s suspected of being a spy/farm? They’re active they move in ks but don’t respond to messages and have a ridiculously low land:ks?

Technically active but definitely a farm, I’d like to be able to vote them out.

Lord Thane

Rennoc if they show up as a multi or inactive, then they'd be excommunicado. No plans to add a voting system for provinces, but maybe an option in Preferences to do a one-time province move could be doable.

King Haybol

Rennoc I think, I have this kind of habit during farming and when busy with work. Hahaha 🤣🤣🤣

Rennoc

Lord Thane or at least vote to flag it. I don’t wanna waste you guys time reporting it as a bug but yeah there a suspicious kd.

Xliest

We could reduce the login duration to 1 or 2 days… if this helps you catch this behaviour.

Lord Thane

Xliest I made a feature to track activity so we could keep the new settings for long login time. The new tracker is pretty simple, it just updates a time stamp any time you load up some pages in your account, then the inactive tool checks those time stamps to find inactives.

Xliest

All good, I hope I don’t get excom for sleeping more than 4 hours one night, if the AI detects an irregularity in my hourly login pattern…

Lord Thane

Xliest nah it wouldn't do that, it's designed to specifically look for 10 days of inactivity. But we can use it to manually track things too when needed 😉

Nolio

@Lord Thane Can you make it so that when an inactive or excommunicado kingdom has 10 or less land, that one more hit wins the last castle?

Lord Thane

Nolio yes that's a good idea, the coup de grace.

King Haybol

Lord Thane Hi sire, please don't include me in the inactive KD. Just want to tell you in advance that my families were taking vacation here in SG 3rd week of this month and 2 months duration. Possibility to extend to three months. During these days, I will be very busy. Hahaha 😅😅😅
