Fixing roles and mafia features

about 8 years

Everyone wants their role to be added. This isn't for everyone.

While lucid is actually active at present, this thread is for fixing roles and mafia-related features. Improving the game itself is more important than adding a bunch of role clones.


Some role fixes

Some mafia features (emjack does all of these)

What should be focused on
30
Impeaching Bebop
17
Fixing bugs and role issues
12
The next Dino Quest chapter
8
Adding my role suggestion
7
Adding minigames
4
Adding QOL features to the base game

Golbolco says

Could the host end games with a day/night option rather than just by sui'ing out?


ok should work, let me know if it doesn't


It works! I'll get Fred to do some Host end music too.

Bride doesn't die when rejected, wasn't it originally supposed to? Check day 1: https://epicmafia.com/game/5557037


that was the original idea which was bad

bride was revised

Also, Idk if this is a bug or what, but some people seem to think so: is the Survivor supposed to be immune to kills when hiding? The role description seems to imply that it can only die if the person it's hiding behind is killed, but as far as I know if targeted it will still be killed on its own.


yeah, this was all intended


if this was intended it's time to un-intend it

i thought this was fixed some time ago, especially since it's not how survivor originally functioned, but being able to kill survivor by targeting the survivor defeats the entire purpose of survivor. it's supposed to hide behind someone to *survive*, otherwise the whole hiding thing is meaningless

another role improvement suggestion

paranoid cop is possibly the most hated official role by everyone

i suggest making it so that paranoid cop is able to find all third party roles, similar to how it can find alien, to give it some practical application outside of a very few cop-only setups (which mostly don't have third parties anyway)

someone with more experience in main can say whether this is a good idea or not

make snowman immune to snowballs with a system message like "(name) throws a snowball at (name)! The snowball has no effect."

3. make kicks automatic once time reaches 0.


unless lucid changed the votelock, main lobby wouldn't be too happy with this

Would it be possible for Gambler and their opponent to have an anonymous chat at night?
deletedabout 8 years
1. add a link so when you click the role in 'You are X!' message you get linked to role page.
2. add label tag 'strategies' to the strat button for new players to know where it is.
3. make kicks automatic once time reaches 0.
4. fix visiting mechanics for tracker/watcher. https://epicmafia.com/topic/79729?page=1

Maybe it's enough to just reveal the gambler to the opponent if he escapes?


gambling is life or death

it's a just-for-fun role, you know like trickster

it's fine the way it was intended to work

lucid i played a game of mafia today and when i joined it told me "You are Villager!" and now i would like to complain because i hold the syntax of my mafia websites to a very very high standard you see

1) Could you throw the word "a" in there? It shouldn't be hard to write a script to check the first letter of the role name for it being a vowel and having that make it "an" as well but that's for a future complaint. My name isn't Villager, I'm just a villager. Which brings me to my next point actually
2) Villager isn't a proper noun. Please change it so role names are presented lowercase in this context.

Thank you for your hard work and diligence mr admin sir.


ok.

maybe, but i think that's still a bit too much because it would just get lynched afterwards, most likely.

Gambler is not dying after losing a bet, either fix that or give him a disadvantage for losing like getting fiddled/silenced/blinded the next day
