How would Bort adding this harm GLB at all? or Stall any current progress?

Simming a player build is a great way to try out lots of different options to see what is optimal. It is already happening, but it's clunky and tedious. Nobody is forced to use it. If you don't want to...don't.


Because it would be the exact same process as leveling Bort already has the code to make a pretty smooth player builder.

It also exponentially increases the amount of good dots in GLB which will make competition better.

until every1 has that "optimal" same build , then what do we do? if every1 is same , who wins a game?

sooner or later there will be an "optimal" build where if your dot is not created exactly like this, you're gonna suck and not get signed

no way, just have the CPU do everything for you bro and go watch TV or something

Bort has more important things to do than to make something we already have.

Player builder doesn't design the dots for you. It just allows you to see how different training methods would effect your dot. You still have to do all the work and come up with the plans on your own.

Once again, the ability already exists.

All you need is to install greasemonkey and use this script http://userscripts.org/scripts/show/81861


You simply run through the entire build process in a matter of minutes to find out what your build will look like at level 73 if you follow your build plan. Then you can see if your dot will be competitive before you spend 4,300 - 10,900 flex on it.

It's also not going to be exact, it just gives you a base idea of what the build will look like.

This is something one of the admin/programmers that doesn't work on the SIM could do

How is everyone going to be the same? Not everyone has the same thought process, and builder doesn't build the dots for you, it just allows you to see what your end build will look like following your build plan.

if anything, i think GLB should find a way to combat the script and make things more random and make people actually use their brain to get better.
i love the "training breakthroughs" because it does help keep every1 from having the same exact build and build plan. it gives people a reason to pay attention to their dot and adjust accordingly. there should be more things like it to keep every1 from having a "cookie cutter build"


so again -1

Click the changelog. Now tell me how many times you see the word "fix". Anytime something is added it takes away time that could be sent on improving/fixing existing facets of the game.


Having the VPB within the site is not a terrible idea, but the GM version has been there for awhile now so I really don't think it would have the impact that some in this thread think.
