There used to be an alteration that allowed an extended emitter on Isida. I've seen some emitters that were pretty darn long. But I don't see that in my garage. Is that no longer available? One of the alteration slots is empty.

Hey,

 

It seems this is because of your Isida being M0 at the moment of posting this. You will need to upgrade it to unlock alterations. I can confirm that the alteration you mention is still available. :)

My apologies. I'm @u812ic, this is my Isida account. As you can see, I do have an Isida M2.

Hey,

 

The alteration should be available to you. It is the second slot. :)

That says:

 

Broadband Emitters

Short range emitters for easier aiming

Cone angle +200%

Range -30%

 

My range is 18.3

 

There was one that extended the range, but I don't see it. A few days ago, I saw an Isida M2 with a range that "seemed" to extend almost halfway across the Polygon map. In my Viking with SB, I couldn't escape it and the attacking Isida was out of range of my emitter. This wasn't lag, as you sometimes see, that extends across a map no matter where you go. This Isida had me targeted and was following me.

This is a pretty commom lag. Its possible that they were hacking, but more likely its a case of very bad lag. There is certainly no alteration that can do that.

This wasn't lag, I can assure you on that. I watched this Isida throughout the battle. There seemed to be no escape from it. But it seems to me that at one point some time ago, there was an alteration to extend the range and I'm wondering if it was in that first box that's now empty. I suppose it's possible that if such an alteration did exist, this Isida still has it in its possession.

The first box would be for an XT skin if Isida had one. Im pretty sure no range-increasing alteration ever existed.

Correct.

Well, then it must have been a hack. When did alterations come out? I got the Hornet shortly after it was introduced into the game. I'm sorry, I just can't get it out of my head that there was an extending alteration. But if you say there wasn't then, I guess, it was in a dream I had. I'm not being disrespectful when I say that. Sometimes, if I play Tanki before going to bed, somehow it'll get incorporated into a dream.

In case of doubt, always check the Wiki: Alterations

Was lag.  Have seen it before, many times.  

 

It's same as when a rail shot "seems" to go through a wall to hit you, but does not really do so.  It hit you before you got behind the wall and your computer is just catching up.

That Isida was doing mega damage with that extended emitter (or whatever is coming out in a wave). With a lag, when you get out of range, you may still be connected, or so it seems, but the damage stops. This damage didn't stop until I was very much dead. It was healing teammates from behind buildings with just its nose sticking out. Here's an example: The Isida was behind the buildings and the Mammoth it was healing was sitting between the buildings and the pit. Now I'm not saying the Isida was healing through buildings, it had its nose sticking out from the corner and the Mammoth was in line of sight.

 

By the way, this was on my Isida account @Katydid

Hey,

 

What you are describing has never been implemented into the game, it would simply... well never work. Isida is a small ranged turret, healing (or even killing) across maps is not what it is/was designed to do. The best way to increase its range would be to upgrade it and use alterations (as they see fit). The alteration you are talking about is simply wishful thinking. Whatever caused it to happen, was not because of a feature implemented by the developers for Isida. :)

Well, another hack to look out for.

Someone sent me a message offering to sell an account, that's against the rules right? Looks like a scam as well. How do I report them?

Hey,

 

Although selling an account and/or offering to do so is against the rules of the game, it is not possible to report chat violations (this includes Forum PMs). Chat Moderators or Battle Moderators no longer accept those kinds of reports. The best thing you can do is simply add the user to your ignore list — this will make sure they are unable to send you any future messages. It's like a block. :)

 

If a Chat Moderator sees someone doing this, they will issue a warning/ban; there is no need to report such chat offenders anymore.

You can, however, use the Game Violation Reports section to report any in-game offenders (such as Hackers, Mults etc.)

[caiosilvac 567]

Well that's disappointing.

I tried to connect with HTML5 and this is the warning I got (the message wouldn't allow me to copy so I wrote it out as it is on the screen:

 

 

Your Connection Is Not Private

Attackers might be trying to steal your information from public-deploy3.test-eu.tankionline.com (for example, passwords, messages, or credit cards).

 

net::err_cert_authority_invalid

 

This server could not prove that it is public-deploy3.test-eu.tankionline.com; its security certificate is not trusted by your computer's operating system. This may be caused by a misconfiguration or an attacker intercepting your connection.

 

 

Exactly what does this mean?

 

I played on HTML5 using a link from the forum. I clicked on the link, which took me to HTML5 version. I bookmarked it. When I tried to go to the website, I used the bookmark.

It could be caused by a number of things, but I'd suggest you run a Google search to find a solution. It's a regularly occurring error in Google Chrome.

So, it's not Tanki? I use Chrome for Tanki because it seems to run better than on Firefox.

I just checked the HTML link and it didn't give an error for me, so it might very well be caused by something else.

What happened to 50% discounts on micro-upgrades and 70% on speed-up ? do they still exist or have they been replaced by 50-50% discounts? and will there be any 50-70% briefly ?
