This way there is still a reason to actually travel to places without using PTs.

I'm confused I thought the defensive weakness only kicked in when using the PT

No. Anytime you go further than 150 miles from any of your turf.

I agree. The GPS should count for something. Placing turfs at your location regardless of how far you are from any of your existing turf should not be subject to the defensive penalty.

👍 I agree too. We shouldn't e penalised in this manner.

Well that sucks. Does that mean newbs automatically have defensive weakness when placing their first turf?

I agree 100% I actually traveled to Tampa. However, I am still stuck with the weakness.

How can it not matter when you are playing the game as originally intended and being penalised for it?

Agreed, I posted this same issue nine weeks ago in the Technical forum. It needs to be fixed. ✊

Because nick never does things for just one reason. This helps create a balance system making it easier for smaller players to defend their home. While I see the point that this plan puts the gps back in the center of the game I also see reasons for thing being the way they are. Like I said either way

To be honest. I don't think it was intended. I think it was overlooked. You forget that all players travel, even small 1s, they are also penalised.

That is true Vadan. I think no penalty for using the gps bit keep penalty for hopping is fair and shouldn't be too bad to code
Tooravve Jul 11, 2011

I agree, and im traveling soon so...

You wouldn't get a penalty if you hop because your previous turf will be within 150 miles. Only time the defensive weakness would occur is when you use the PT.

Actually if you hop over 150 mi. From a mature turf it'll start the weakness.

No, each turf inherits the weaknesses of it's neighbours. When I hopped from Berlin, I managed to get outside the 150 mile range and all the turfs matured at the same time.

The defense weakness in general is dumb and should be removed. Billy, once again, thumbs up.

Its completely fair. But not for when you actually go there.

I guess for airplane tickets, but the turf is reduced by just a little too much.

It's fine for plane tickets. I agree with everyone else though, that it shouldn't exist for actually going somewhere in real life.
