Turns out you can smash a dogs head in with a crowbar if they're asleep.
Crowbars also break windows.
Looks like I'll be packing more crowbars.
Oh god this game is killing me.
I'm over-thinking every single design I make.
Okay so I choose the top players house, and you need to fill your entire backpack with crowbars to get through to his vault, but right before it is this electric floor that's on... for anyone else who attempts this do tell me how you would go about getting rid of that floor piece.
The top players house is impossible unless you know the combination of buttons to push. Not much point in trying it.
This is a small section of my elaborate house, it looks terrifying as you open the doors since the pit bulls appear (psychological warfare). Also I don't want to reveal the method to my vault.

[QUOTE=archival;39943069]Oh man I actually robbed this exact set up (you?) earlier with a full inventory of water bottles :v:[/QUOTE]
Oh THAT was you
You are the only person who has ever attempted to rob me who has not died at the first floor
I fixed the problem with it anyways, you cant do that anymore (they dont all activate anymore like that, so if you begin roasting them you cant destroy the next relevant one)

Its weird though, 4 guys have tried to rob me so far, every single one always tries to top path first and dies
Just bought it, pretty cool game.
My only problem with this though is that every house ever is lolpitbulls and then you die (mostly with them being so far offscreen you dont see them until its too late)

Generally most houses are combination locks, not outsmarting you, it really sucks, but lets face it, houses that try to outsmart you dont work
[editline]17th March 2013[/editline]
Generally too, when you run into an instantdeath pitbull house, you have to rebuild your entire fucking house again which is a complete pain in the ass
The pitbulls are over powered (judging from what I've seen on youtube :v: ). I think it would be good to remove them, since after what I have seen they're almost in every house, in the most uncreative ways possible. I've seen some good use of them, but mostly they are just spammed and used so you have to do it the right the first time, else you will die no matter what.

and that's why if I can't pull off stripping the source down to some kind of planner/simulator then I'm 100% sure someone else will
basically just limitless build/test cycle, with death not resetting anything and no online connectivity
Just bought this game, can't wait to rob you people :v:
Oh, My house took poor 36 souls over the night, but someone finally brute forced through it taking 26k.
Guess I will record and put some tries on video, some are funny, especially people trying to figure out "OP AS FUCK" dog triggers with their set of dancing skills.
I want to make a fun house where you have to press the plates in specific ways instead of showering the robbers with pitbulls.

Well, those are usually the "top houses", usually called impossible.
It's very simple to do them, but you need some $$$ on actual electronics and setting "anti brute" securities, that will block off people who try to cut through all of your blocks.

I think it may be possible to do one quite cheap, but with no brute force protection. Let me see...

Ofcourse it is, but people who will stuck on saws, welding stuff, etc, will get through easily.
You need to remember to put valuable things on at least 9 tiles away from the actual "action area", where people are walking through.
You can have up to 8 items on you, and all of that can be used to just "mine" through 8 of your blocks to key areas, where they can easily shut down your whole system.
what happens if you enter someone's house, break through some walls and leave successfully, then return again?
surely if you are quick about it, you can restock on tools and continue burrowing through? (ofc bringing cutters or water to disable any leaving prevention systems)
If you won't steal any money and won't kill a single member of the family, everything resets.
If you kill someone/steal some money, game saves on the moment you leave the house.
I spent 20 minutes trying to figure out how to make an or gate... then I remembered that two on states still equals on.
Oh hey, I have 5k so I appear third on the robbing list now
I also saw the first copycat of my trap
Wrecked it
[editline]17th March 2013[/editline]
Oh my someone robbed me, he had to blow down 5 concrete walls
Next time I'm using 10 of them bitches
[QUOTE=Swebonny;39945657]I spent 20 minutes trying to figure out how to make an or gate... then I remembered that two on states still equals on.[/QUOTE]
an or gate would just be a piece of wire, no?
pretty sure you want an xor gate
great, repaired the trap, forgot to move the dogs back and died proving it
you seriously shouldent die for real when proving your trap, its so fucking dumb
[QUOTE=Em See;39945697]an or gate would just be a piece of wire, no?

No.
On Off = On
Off On = On
Off Off = Off
On On = On.
Aka power source with two buttons and then wires from the two buttons going to whatever thing you want to power.

I suggest using 8 concrete walls (walls in general) and then only glass windows.
It will piss people off that they were so close and only glass window now is between them and the safe.

Switched to 7 concrete walls
Then I started robbing some house and died due to a bulldog in the screen transition
I wish the camera would follow you so you didnt step off the "edge" of the screen, turns out there was an electric floor there and die horribly
[editline]17th March 2013[/editline]
I also had 3 concrete walls, then bulldog spam enclosed in them so if anyone tried to break through that they would get violated (you wouldent have enough guns left to shoot them all even if you wanted)

Well, if you poison one dog, it blocks the path...
So even if you have 501329561236590701706721706 pitbulls, as long as there is only 1x1 corrider and I've got a cookie, your pitbulls have lost.
Dunno about corpses though.
About 7 concrete walls, as long as they can't focus 8 items only on breaking through, it's ok.
Just keep in mind that there is 8 inventory slots.
I'm building now everything in 8+1 style.
Well fuck it I died when trying out my own house. Fuck it..

I normally run in and out of the door for a while to make sure no pitbulls are going to sneak up on you, of course they can still leave them later in the maze.
Edit: I love how people just know they are fucked once they are part of the way into my trap

yeah i've notices most houses are just unimaginative pitbull spam, probably will stop playing until they are removed or nerfed
