The new engine is should be much more balanced. You can see it as it is used for tourneys. box2glory.proboards.com/index.cgi?board=gameabout&action=display&thread=407As you use it I would like your feedback on it. It should allow non strength based fighters to have sucess as well as explosivness count for something. Depending on feedback I am getting I want to be able to move this new engine quickly to main game, which of course will introduce quiet a shake-up to poor AI. Option 1. Move to main game after 2 tourneys or so with new engine. Option 2. Move to main game but wait longer Option 3. Don't move to main game, something is wrong with new engine.

We need time to test it.
WeBL's engine worked very different in different weights with different number of APs. Though if it's a copy... WeBL's engine was quite balanced.

I was gonna vote to leave it the same with the reason being that any engine that causes Ghosts to lose generally has my vote.....but I thought it would be premature to vote without having actually fought with it.
I will check in soon

In fact I don't understand how anybody is able to vote right now... After few weeks of fights it still would be too early to say something definitely
I haven't voted, I don't know.
Can I test this new one with sim? I mean sim now supports main game or tournie mode? Tourney rules = new engine?

You can choose normal or tourney mode . There's a tickbox near the top left of the page .

I will check in soon Well considering all my losses are due to bugs in the system, I should probably feel hard done by shouldn't I .. I'm the poor bloke that is getting raped by the buggy sim while you guys wander around blisfully unaware. Lilly you can test the new engine by checking the tourny engine tick box. My thoughts at the moment are that you have just fixed another bug in the new engine so you realy need to wait to see how things play out before making any decisions.. I have a feeling there are going to be some more issues you will want to straighten out before introducing the engine into the main game.

The changes do *sound* good, so I "feel" like it's likely to be worth implementing, which I felt was enough to warrant a vote. Definitely need a couple weeks to verify that everything is good, though.

Option 2 for me. This is a new game and there is plenty of time to make changes so let's make sure that everything is proven to work before rushing into anything. Run a couple of months of tournaments 1st and then see how people think...

ok, these new engine now has all the bugs fixed and I really want to start moving it into the new game to get the non-strength based boxers a chance. So I am unlocking this as most of you are having good exposure to it.

My goal is to move new engine from tourneys to main game in exactly one game year unless someone really would convince me it is less balanced than the one that is used now.So be warned as you do you longer term signings. i am also expecting to make flare concentration to have higher effect as those are being ignored at this time by managers.

I use taunts where I know that I have a clear advantage of flair over concentration but it is quite unusual that I have any advantage at all...

ok. remember on week 1 of January 2031 the new engine (tourney engine) will be there in main game. Plus I am thinking to make taunts twice as effective.

Has the double effectiveness if taunt been implemented into the tournament sim already?
Another question, does the disparity between two boxer's concentration and flare have any effect on the effectiveness of taunt. Eg Boxer A has flare of 15 and concentration of 10, and his opponent Boxer B has flare of 11 and concentration of 6. Will Boxer A's taunts be more effective than Boxer B's taunts?
