Basically I want to make a game bot that promotes interaction between instances; so, each instance is a tribe, and you have to go off and play against people on other instances.
But I haven’t really figured out what the actual game should be. I’m loosely basing it on the idea of Tribal Wars, but I don’t think that would work very well since it’s intensely precise - most worlds have a forced attack launch delay of 100ms, and this is for a reason. I think something more turn-based is fine. But does it even need to be a territory-control game in the first place? Card games maybe not great since having a hidden hand is annoying.
@meloo It was boosted by @fediversefutures
I mean like, how do you subscribe to sublemmys from mastodon?
@narF @meloo Just like you would subscribe to a mastodon account from another instance : you type
@fediversefutures@lemmy.ml
in Mastodon’s search bar to see the community’s profile (unfortunately Mastodon doesn’t support the!
for groups, so cannot deal with a user and a community having the same name. Friendica does)Huh wow! This could also be used to follow lemmy users, maybe! There is no way to currently follow lemmy users from lemmy.
@meloo you can formally follow a Lemmy user from Mastodon or Friendica, but I’m not sure whether updates really go in your timeline as I don’t follow any active lemmy user
User following is not implemented on the Lemmy side. It will appear to work from Mastodon, but really you wont receive anything.
thanks mate
@meloo I didn’t. The boosted post appeared in my timeline and I just replied to it from my mastodon account. I didn’t create a new account.
Is that a problem? Did I do something wrong?
That’s cool! Sounds like lemmy posts automatically get posted on the mastodon timeline.
Not at all
