Yekaterina Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Dear developers: The warning message and the warning alarm sometimes fail to display when under attack. Normally, if one of our unit is being killed (especially at regions not in the current view frame), there should be an alarm saying "You have been attacked!" and an alarm sound. However, I noticed this message failing to display very often and the warning sound is almost never heard. How can this be fixed? I think the condition of not displaying an alarm if the attack is happening in the player's viewframe could be causing the issue, so if this is the case we should remove this condition to ensure that all fights are being reported. The failing alarm has caused my base to be sacked many times without me ever knowing. I think we should at least add a few warning messages and play a LOUD sound effect if any of our units are being killed, especially women.

Silier Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 Hello, Thank you for report. Aside from possible bug in game, you most likely will not get the alarm or message if you are already fighting or were fighting recently (I can't tell what the timeframe for this is), else you will be bombarded with the notifications.

Do you think it's possible for there to be a special alarm warning that a woman has been killed? Normally there shouldn't be too many women dying, if there is, then there is definitely something very disastrous (sneaky cavalry raid) happening in the player's base and the player should pay much attention to it. In this case the spam is worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lion.Kanzen Posted March 3, 2023 Report Share Posted March 3, 2023 (edited) 8 hours ago, Silier said: you are already fighting or were fighting recently For this reason I told Stan that we had to have 2 alarms and another one indicating an attack on the player's territory, especially near the CCs and when the camera was not on the scene.

Yekaterina Posted March 7, 2023 Author Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 What's the command to display warning message and play the alarm sound? Which file controls it? This problem existed since A24. There wasn't a problem in A23. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted March 7, 2023 Report Share Posted March 7, 2023 Alpha 23b was r21936 Alpha 24b was r24937 Attack detection was changed 4 times since then. @Freagarach thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
