Check out the blog to learn about the new improvements to Banking Boot Times! http://blog.warlight.net/index.php/2014/08/update-2-7-no-split-mode-banking-boot-time-improvements/

What do you guys think? I hope this, when used properly, will be able to speed up games a lot without increasing the number of unnecessary boots.

thanks a lot fizzer! i think it's a very good improvement. i'll use the Banking boot time Setting more often now for sure!

much better! Im actually going to add this to a few of my choice templates now that the function is much better.

Definitely looks like an improvement in my eyes!

Awesome :D

This will let players get extra time on deployment phase, but not the rest of the game. or the opposite. I love this :)

Hah, I already used it in my last four games. :D

EDIT: Actually, last three. http://warlight.net/MultiPlayer?GameID=6901529

Just wanna say "Thanks Fizzer!" for all the excellent work you've done. I adore your game and your maps are loads of fun.

Sweet, this not only covers my wish, It allows for a range of other great options as well. Very nice improvement of WL :)

P.S Is it possible to have Initial Banking time, and set the timer to zero? (Can someone please check, as I haven't gotten points yet)

Cool! This will definitely make banking boot time a more attractive option. On a practical note, how would initial banked time impact force joins in tournaments? Will the banked time have to elapse before you get force joined or does that only apply to actual turns?

No split mode is meant to unlocks at level 39 and I'm level 43 but it won't let me use it. I'll report it as a bug.

You'll get it next level up.

oh, didn't read that properly, lol

Think Gnuffone will hate it? ;)

why would he hate it?

aaah, right :)

is good.
my goal is try to add 5 min in picking stage that expire from turn 1. If i find the right setting i will post there.

you mean this:

Let’s look at how we could use this to address a common request, adding additional time for the game’s first turn:

Boot time of 5 minutes, Bank 0%, 10 minutes initial bank, bank duration of 1: In this case, the 0% banking percentage means there’s no way to add to your bank. The initial bank is the only amount that applies. Therefore, the first turn gives you 15 minutes, and all subsequent turns give just 5. If this is a manual distribution game, those 15 minutes would apply to the territory selection step, otherwise they’d apply to the first turn of the normal game.

No, you can't set boot time lower than 1 min.
