Voting Instructions
Players, please cast your votes in the poll above. Vote "Yea" if you'd be okay if this proposal was implemented. Vote "Nay" if you'd be okay if this proposal wasn't implemented.

You can vote for both options, which is equivalent to saying "I'm fine either way", but adds to the required quorum of 25 votes in favor.

All votes are public. If you wish, you can discuss your choice(s) in the thread below. You can change your vote as many times as you want until the poll closes.

VP Congress: Session 5, Proposal 59


Currently, there are two types of function calls to level up a spy.

  • LevelUpSpy(uiSpyIndex) simply raises the rank of the spy. Experience is retained. Only used in one situation in VP (likely unintended, see below).
  • LevelUpSpy(uiSpyIndex, iExperience) adds experience to the spy, and ranks it up if it has 100 experience or more. All excess experience is discarded when a spy levels up this way.
The second call can feel bad if your spy has 95 experience and gain 50 more.

Proposal : Remove the experience discarding mechanic.

By the way, uncovering intrigue for "building up an army for a naval attack" currently uses the old method of having 15% chance to level up the spy. This is likely an oversight when switching to new experience model and should be changed to +25 experience instead like the land attack version.

This probably could have been fast tracked.
