I have reset everyones ratings back to 0 so everyone is starting out as Neutral.
Why?
Because I have uploaded new Ratings code. If you want to see how many points you get for various actions you can check the
settings for the game. Scroll down until you find Ratings.
The rating_nova_destroy_planet and rating_genesis_destroy are the base values for a level 0 planet. As the average tech level of the planet goes up the the points go up. So a larger tech level planet will cause a larger rating change.
All of the values are positive but they are modified depending upon the rating of the attacker and defender.
Good Attacker -> Good Defender = Negative Rating
Good Attacker -> Evil Defender = Positive Rating
Evil Attacker -> Evil Defender = Positive Rating
Evil Attacker -> Good Defender = Negative Rating
Even though players are listed as neutral they will always be leaning towards either good or evil. No one is truly neutral. Well, the only really neutral players are new players.
There will no longer be any wild changes in a players Good/Neutral/Evil rating when they attack a player who is highly evil or good.
Players who never attack anyone will generally stay Neutral.
BTW, if you use the Genesis Device to destroy a planet it is exactly the same as attacking someone with your same rating.
