    I have another suggestion for the forums :

    You know when you're purchasing an item from the town mall?

    When the item is purchased, you get a message ( shown below ) :

    There should be a link or a redirect so that we can go back to the shop without navigating our way back.

    I totally agree. This one's a jerry script, i tend to always have a redirect back on my scripts as you may have noticed. I'll add this in shortly

    Ya, that would be great. Much easier then wasting 7 seconds.

    And also, here's another idea I had, and Marc likes it.

    We add some classes. Now players can choose their class once they sign up, and they will see the advantages and disadvantages for every class. For example, one class could have the advantage of getting a +5 attack bonus for every fight and the disadvantage could be that it costs more to build stuff on empty land.

    I think 4-5 classes should do good and players cannot change their class, unless we hold some sort of contest.

    What do you think?

    I'll try it, and if it's good I'll get you some people to play it.

    **EDIT** It's glitchy as shit..hopefully the game is good though.

    Seems like a good idea..I kind of like it. Except on your next update, definitely change the font. It's atrocious and makes my eyes hurt.

    Experience is spelled wrong, and you should make the chatbox available all the time 24/7 and make it global, not location specific.

    at the moment a tutorial and character set up to get players ready for the game, as a lot of players seem confused on how the game works.

    i made the chat location specific to kind of mimic world of warcraft and allow players to find peaceful squares to talk privately as i'd consider the town's to be the main talking place, it also splits up the convosation for those playing casinos and those talking about other things

    It's sad to hear you don't like the font, took about 3 days to make the font. Takes a very long time to draw out your own font. It's pretty hurtful you don't like it but everyones entitled to their own opinion. If you'd be kind enough to state the glitches i can improve on them as i'm yet to see any.

    When I load a lot it'll be stuck at the loading screen. I have to take out the ? in the map.php? to get it to progress. And in the casino it will just show a black screen and all you see is the slot things going on.

    thank you ogreman

    also exo it sounds like the javascript isn't correctly working. Though you must have it enabled if the loading screen works most of the time :/ you didn't mention this to me last night so is it still playing up? As this is a big problem if it is.

    it might be the loading time slowing down, i'm not sure what else to suggest. Its hard to fix a problem you can't see or test for

    Uhh... I really hate the loading, there's loading every single time I do something.

    Also, I must suck at this game, cos I bought a jacket for 50, then sold it for 4! I don't know what I was doing there. Anyway, I bought a jacket again, then a knife, then equipped the jacket, and used the knife. I have no idea what the knife did, but I assume nothing, so lost another 50. Now I'm skint broke, and I don't have a clue how to earn more money :D.

    Also, the loading is really putting me off, and I might even quit just because of that one aspect.

    oh, the loading screen is there to load the images. As you can see it's very image heavy. without the loading screen you would see everything jump around the page as it get's loaded. I thought it was nicer to hide this as it looks messy and off putting. As it's a PHP game there will always be loading so it's either a loading screen or a messy loading as all the images get loaded. The knife add's damage but as we don't have fighting at the moment as it's buggy this is not really needed like the potions. If you run out of money you can get 150 more by pressing the button that appears where your money is. I hope you don't get put off by the loading as it can't be changed.

    Unfortunately, this is the biggest problem I have with games like this. I had the same problem with Pokemon Crater. Moving around in THAT game required clicking a button, then loading the page again, and again, and again, for each step. It's just really annoying for me.

    Maybe PHP games just aren't for me if they are as active as your game.

    This is the downfall of PHP games. Though loading might be a problem, at least it loads fast and at the end of the day it's about the playability. PHP games arn't everyone's cup of tea.
