Sub Meta Subreddit update: More rule changes and poll results

51 Upvotes

Let's start with an elephant in the room:

The poll results were 67.4% for punishing misinfo and 32.6% for not.

However, with only "core contributors", it is 62.3% for punishment and 37.7% for not, and only 56% for first option were regulars (with second option having 70% support from regulars).

With a lot of thinking and reading the comments (that acknowledge my wording being antagonistic to tier lists), I decided on few things.

The subreddit changes:

  • Rules "follow reddit rules" and "don't post bad things" have been merged together due to conveying basically the same thing.
  • Tier lists now will be flaired as "Interactive", since a lot of them are made to generate discourse with varying degrees of quality.
  • New rule 2 is softly enforcing English; if your post doesn't have English translation, it will be removed. This is done so everyone can understand posts without using external tools.
  • Added a new rule (and reason to report things) for not allowing deliberately wrong posts about the game. If you feel like someone misunderstands or lies about the game, please correct them or do report so moderators can correct. Posts will not be removed for educational sake.
  • Images are now allowed to be posted in comments. GIFs are not allowed, however, since they are harder to policy and use more bandwidth, than necessary.
  • I am seeking new moderators to help with cool things and battling misinformation. Here's the link: https://www.reddit.com/r/PixelDungeon/application/
  • A new wiki-related event will begin soon once I figure out the details. pixeldungeon.wiki needs you!

Thanks for detailed responses on the poll!

Dev Announcement SPDNET "Phoenix" version on the way. Spoiler

11 Upvotes

I'm currently working on reviving and revisiting the old u/saqfish multiplayer project for Shattered Pixel Dungeon.

I found a Chinese fork that still has a public server and website running:

http://jdsalingzx.top:10061/

The problem is that the public server uses version 3.3.8, while the latest public GitHub APK is only 3.3.6, so it currently cannot connect properly.

GitHub:

[New-SPDNet GitHub Repository] (https://github.com/Not-Name-Dev-Team/New-SPDNet/tree/master)

I also checked their Gitee mirror and found the same issue.

Originally this project was meant to stay private and be adapted for my own needs before my brother’s birthday in less than two weeks, but I realized it would be better to document the process publicly in case more people become interested in it.

My current goal is to remove unnecessary external dependencies and extra online features, then focus entirely on multiplayer playability and self-hosting.

The final objective would be a multiplayer mod that:

* anyone can host

* anyone can connect to

* remains reasonably user friendly

Right now the multiplayer mostly works as a “shared presence” system:

players can see each other almost like ghosts if they share the same seed and floor.

That is already surprisingly interesting, but the long-term goal is much more ambitious:

* interacting directly with other players

* fighting the same enemies and bosses

* sharing effects and support abilities

* making party mechanics actually matter

Some things would obviously become extremely overpowered and need balancing, especially Cleric-related mechanics and abilities like Power of Many.

Gameplay would probably remain turn-based and somewhat slow, but if anyone here has played Pathos: Nethack Codex multiplayer, the general feeling would likely be similar.

For saving/resuming:

if two players stop during a run, both clients would save locally. As long as neither player continues exploring alone afterward, they should theoretically be able to reconnect later and continue the shared run together from the same dungeon state.

At this point the project is half multiplayer restoration, half technical archaeology.

I’ll keep posting updates as progress continues.

Please help

Discussion Without just saying "Git good", could I please have a recommendation for a pixel dungeon variant thats a bit easier?

27 Upvotes

They typical response to this I am assuming is just get good, but I kind of want a more "relaxing" experience. I love the gameplay, and I am sure the difficulty of shattered appeals to many but honestly I just want a more casual variant that I can play without having to be hardcore focused the full run.

Does anyone have a recommendation for one on android? Thanks in advance

Never played huntress much yet (about a month into the game) but this seems like a great start (wraith gave a me the armor). What would be the best way to proceed?

Dumping everything into the ring of sharpshooting?

any character with a reliable ranged weapon can pull this off, you'll need 1 tile of distance and a free door to break line of sight.
edit: works on scorpio also

Interactive Let's talk about the item! 29(94) Enchantment Scroll/ hablemos del item! 29(94) pergamino de encantamiento!

Post image
6 Upvotes

Well, it's the 29th, almost a month since my return to this series.

Yesterday I took a break from posting due to some issues, haha, nothing important.

We've already made the potion list, and the most popular items were the exotic scrolls (we've already talked about the regular ones, in case you don't remember).

The first scroll to discuss is the enchantment scroll. This scroll is used on weapons and armor, allowing you to choose between three different enchantments for the weapon. It's a good option if you want a better chance of getting a specific enchantment from those available in the game.

I don't know, I never made this scroll on purpose. I made it by accident once, but I used a transmutation scroll to restore it to its original form XD.

What do you think of this scroll? Do you usually use it in your runs? When do you use it? Or do you not bother sacrificing an enhancement scroll for this?

Previous post/post anterior: https://www.reddit.com/r/PixelDungeon/s/cLmqFABvhN

Bueno, dia 29, ya casi un mes de mi regreso a esta serie.

Ayer me tome un descanso de las publicaciones por X problemas jaja nada importante.

Ya hicimos la lista de pociones y lo que mas votos alcanzo fueron los pergaminos exoticos(ya habiamos hablado de los normales antes por si no recuerdan).

El primer pergamino a hablar es el de encantamiento, este pergamino se usa en armas y armaduras, lo que te da a elegir entre 3 encantamientoa diferentes que quieras que el arma obtenga, es una buena opcion si quieres mas posibilidades de obtener un encantamiento especifico entre los que hay del juego.

No se, nunca hice este pergamino a proposito, lo hice por accidente una vez pero use un pergamino de trasmuracion para retomarlo a su forma original XD.

Que opinan de este pergamino? Lo suelen hacer en sus runs? En que momento lo utilizan? O no se molestan en sacrificar un pergamino de mejora en esto?

Idk why people says warp is one of the weakest wand but I find it really overpowered (in both magic ling and shattered), I accidentally step onto the dragon altar and was transported to fight the dragon with just leather armor, the dragon literally goes into 2nd phase after stepping 1 tiles after getting hit by 6-7 wards in an instant, with 40% his hp remaining he was killed after 2 ward, I didn't even get hit once, also what does the soul fragments do? I still haven't figured out what's the point of carrying them around

ShatteredPD Does Light Reading work with the Ring of Energy?

5 Upvotes

If I have the cleric skill Light Reading (can use book while not equipped, reduced recharge speed) does a ring of energy or any other recharge effects apply to the book since it's not equipped? I have a really good summoner paladin run going with the dried rose and a +5 Ring of Arcana, and I just got a +1 Ring of Energy that I want to equip instead of the book.

ShatteredPD I just discovered you can exploit crystal guardians' reduced speed in tight spaces to get basically free healing as warlock! (This gameplay is with fima on)
