Down to 30 seconds to finish.  Devs! The target time will never increase with auto-stop playing. Only decrease. 30 sec now! Dev, try to finish in 30 sec by yourself. It is VERY hard to find 30 sec lev with hitting F6 many-many times. Remove auto-stop in game in target time! 30 sec is killing MotoCoin gameplay. What is auto-stop? Target time will increase if blocks will be mined too slow Randomly take levs from prev
There are already solutions for these levels And make same levs to everybody at same blocks. It will be real challenge!
It's impossible because levels must be generated based information in block, that includes your address to receive reward for mining. If levels are the same then other nodes will be able to stole your reward. The only solution that I see is to decrease intended time between blocks from 5 minutes to something lower. |

Is it possible without relaunch? 3 minutes seems to be more legit with a map of this size. |

Let's see how it goes. Everything is ok so far. At least, I made 4 blocks last hour. Those who complain about the difficulty must be communists ). No pain no gain, if you want the same game with a maximum fun, get Elastomania and do not mine Motocoin. Someday it will be that hard that you'll be lucky a solve 1 block per month...

Target time will increase if blocks will be mined too slow Game stops now, if coin not taken in 30 sec target time. Let players take coins without that time limit. Fist finish takes block reward. As i say, it is very hard to find 30 sec. level now. Look on last replays - almost similar levels. I spend many time (10-30 sec) hitting F6 and waiting for ez (just about 25-30sec) free-fall lev. Coz no sense play hard 35-60 seconds levs (game will stop in middle way to coin). |

I think that setting the block generation target time to 1 min and the reward at 20 Motocoin would make the mining more attractive, and make a bit less attractive to use bots to select the map.
It could be easy to code a bot that regenerate the map until one of a predefined set of path is clean (part 1).
Then, the miner just need to run the map and have a way higher chance to complete it in time (part 2).
Many some people already have coded such algorithm.
With a lower block generation time and a lower reward, it makes the 'part 2' more important (people with the bot will spend more time on it). And those people will also need to lower their cleaned path exigency to make sure the part 1 doesn't consume too much time. Indeed, if they know that they have 5 minutes in average to complete a map, they could spend something like 30 seconds running the part 1 algorithm to get the perfect map. If they have only 1 minute, they won't run it longer than 10 seconds. So the map they will play on won't be as easy, and it will be a bit more fair compared to miners that don't have the part 1 algorithm.

not really, you missed huntercoin apparently Huntercoin had a typical sha-256 blockchain, motocoin is the first to have a blockchain controlled by a video game. Anyways, I changed the title to "Motocoin: the first Proof of Play Cryptocurrency" to prevent any confusion. Note that Huntercoin doesn't have a "typical" blockchain, but a dual-algo one with SHA256D and scrypt (was also the first to have that). However, I agree that Huntercoin is not really comparable here. As you state, Motocoin uses "real" human-mining as PoW - also to secure the chain. In Huntercoin, the chain is secured by hardware PoW and the human-mining aspect is just part of the built-in multiplayer game. Both have their interesting things, but they are different in that respect. |

I have a stupid idea, but, isn't it better to make player collect more coins (like 2 or 3) to solve the block rather than limit time ? 'Cause this fall-slalom can go crazy in several days from now. My rate is 6 blocks per hour right now, but I press F6 way more often....

I updated client, it now includes list of nodes, so if automatic peer discovery doesn't work for you new version will fix it.

Guys, please don't convince the dev to make the game easier. Maybe the bigger map could work but making the seconds less and less will increase the value of the coins a lot more because it will be very hard to mine.

I think the game will become (or already is) a game of "hit F6 50 times and hope for a good level". A bit sad, I liked the game, but with the short time, it's not even worth attempting 95% of the levels...
