What is missing is an excel file which should be uploaded daily with all the stock values at a T time everyday. And stock could be sold and purchased at that value only during 24 hours. So that it's clear. Then the XL file could include graphs of progression of values.

Obviously that owuld require Muli's skills to take the players levels automatically.

Without that, it's difficult to play. Are you going to check everybody's orders at the right price ? Can players be aware of all values at one glance ?

Hey Mike!

The values themselves are very simple to check. You can go to the ladder pages, https://www.warlight.net/Ladder?Ladder=OneVersusOne, https://www.warlight.net/Ladder?Ladder=TwoVersusTwo, https://www.warlight.net/Ladder?Ladder=ThreeVersusThree and https://www.warlight.net/Ladder?Ladder=RealTime. The player's ratings are stock value here.

I tried to figure out how to make an excel sheet check the player ratings automatically, and even asked Fizzer about it. Fizzer's reply again shows how little he cares about us players.

Fizzer: Unfortunately, ladder ratings are not exposed by WarLight's API. You can read about what's available at https://www.warlight.net/API.

Legacy: Okay. I sincerely don't understand why this is not available. How would you recommend working around this? As said, I want my spreadsheet to be able to update this info.



Either that, or you can just take the forum Stock Market and code it into Warlight so it's all automated! That too, would be lovely.

Fizzer: Every feature we add to WarLight takes time. WarLight is made by just a single person, so features have to have a high desirability before we can devote time to it. In my 7 years of working on WarLight, you are literally the first person that has asked me for it. So it would be kind of silly for me to take time away from features people are asking for to spend time on a feature that nobody had ever asked for, don't you think? (emphasis added)

You should post your idea for a feature to the UserVoice forum. See https://www.warlight.net/wiki/Feedback

So, until Fizzer formats the ladder ratings in a way that can be retrieved automatically, we're stuck checking our own work. Which isn't all that inconvenient; you just have to pay attention and update your spreadsheet once a day.

Uh, I'm checking ratings and ranks automatically. You don't need an API for that.

Propulsion Investments gains $4.32 cash on hand from dividends ($1.08 from 5 shares of 1v1 Ladder ACL Tears; $3.23 from 15 shares of 2v2 Ladder Nackickwind and Buns157).

PI cash on hand increases to $974.32

Could you teach me how, knyte? xD

On Excel: something along these lines- http://blogs.msdn.com/b/hovsep/archive/2007/07/11/excel-2007-how-to-connect-to-and-import-data-from-an-xml-web-service.aspx

On gSheets: IMPORTXML with the narrowest XPath query you can construct (check the page source to figure out which tags to query) -> SPLIT to take out the letters (you can really just do a split with the entire lowercase alphabet).

I invest all my shekels in Bane, he's consistently let me down but I heard even a penny stock has it's golden days.

I just spent 2 weeks writing excel macros for import/export xml datas, so i might be able to help

Also, for accounting purposes.

The bank account storing all fees collected is currently at $60.00. If a player goes bankrupt, the funds might be used to resurrect him.

You can also just make a copy of my sheet and use it to track your own investments.

What does '"abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz", TRUE' refer to? Lol.

Beat' Em Holding has decided to join the stock market.

We start out by using our available funds to buy:

15 shares in TheRiverStyxie 1v1, rating 1558: https://www.warlight.net/LadderTeam?LadderTeamID=12622
$1558*15 = $23370 + $10 transaction fee

13 shares in Swisster 1v1, rating 1979: https://www.warlight.net/LadderTeam?LadderTeamID=1078
$1979*13 = $25727 + $10 transaction fee

1 share in Evil Doctor Purple, rating 824: https://www.warlight.net/LadderTeam?LadderTeamID=12343
$824*1 = $824 + $10 transaction fee

Remaining funds:
$49

You can track my progress here(thanks for the template knyte):

Transaction made. Welcome to the market! The Bank of Fees now has a value of $90. Friendly reminder that the game is best played when checking your progress at least once per day. :)

@FK: that's just two parameters for SPLIT that take out all non-numeric values

I buy 46 shares of Good Kid for $1,073 each for a total of $49,358.

Good Kid Industries ends the day with $$632 remaining in the bank, a total worth of $49,990, a change of -0.02%.

(I saw no clause regarding buying severely underpriced stock in oneself.)

It's a devious strategy, but a legal one. Good luck. :)


Forbidden Assets sells all stock in Ricochet RT in a preemptive measure, noting the company will leave the market today if it does not play on the RT ladder soon. $10 in fees charged. Dividends calculated before new purchases:

Mister T 1v1 gives $2.17 in dividends, but falls to a rating of $2,174.

Sze/Gnuff 3v3 remains stable at $2,125 and pays $2.13.








Here's the reason you can't buy stock that isn't currently ranked: https://www.warlight.net/LadderTeam?LadderTeamID=13152. So worthless it's at a negative value, well done!!!


Forbidden Assets reinvests its leftover funds into 6 shares of Fareck RT, https://www.warlight.net/LadderTeam?LadderTeamID=10714, for $6270 + $10 in fees.
