atWar Needs You! Experienced Developers Wanted!

Hi Everyone!

We are currently looking for people to help us with game development!
Successful candidates will get access to the game source code and will be in charge of things like fixing existing bugs and adding new features and improvements to atWar.
The main technologies we use for the game are JavaScript, C#, PHP and MySQL.

We are looking for developers who know both JavaScript and C# on at least an intermediate to high level. Which means no script kiddies, thanks, but someone who actually worked on a project of a significant scale. Please don't bother PMing if you have just started learning these languages and haven't completed any real world projects.

If you believe that you have enough expertise in this area, please PM me your CV (don't worry, it will be kept private), ideally with your most recent portfolio.
Along with this, we kindly ask you to complete a simply test task, which involves the following:

Quote:
A code in JavaScript that loads an image, slices it into X and Y number of pieces horizontally and vertically, then shuffles them and displays the result. A bit like jigsaw puzzle thing. Most importantly, it needs to be 100% your code. Please don't try and mash up something quickly, as we will be looking at the quality of code first and foremost. If you could do the same in C# - all the better! Thanks in advance for taking your time.

Depending on the outcome, if we manage to find a successful candidate, we will discuss the compensation and other arrangements privately, based on experience and the amount of time you will be able to dedicate to your new role.

EDIT: Please don't post the test tasks here, use PM, and we will not accept applicants without any CV. Thanks!

Best of luck to you all,
Amok

I'll try actually solving it maybe this weekend, but here are my thoughts on how to solve it, in C++: That looks more like C# without semi-colons (no standard range function in C++). The problem looks fun though. I'll give it a try later. Loading... Loading...

Please keep this serious guys, because It should be if you care about this game. Is amok expecting people to do this shit for free? If so.. this is actually laughable. Even if they paid as little as, say $500 for the project of getting map editor to work... atleast its something to motivate the dev. No self repecting dev would do it for nothing. More likely to attract script kiddies that want to fuck up the site that way.. And think about it... He's taken 2 years to introduce the new map editor, he's basically admitting he's stuck by asking for help... yet he gets the profit from the game shared between him and ivan....if they dont pay, he's basically asking someone else to do his homework for him while he takes the credit... ---- Loading...

Davy Jones Hydra Posts: 962	+1 12.10.2017 - 10:08 Davy Jones Written by Player 999, 09.10.2017 at 20:40 Alright so from the looks of the problem, it is a fairly doable image parsing problem. I'll try actually solving it maybe this weekend, but here are my thoughts on how to solve it, in C++: 1. Include all the necessary permissions such as "using namespace std", "#include <string>", or whatever you'll need. 2. Create a function that takes an input of an image, and returns a 2d array. Your main function will run this function. 3. In that function, create two variables: newrandx and newrandy. These will be the new x and y values after the shuffling. 4. Create two more variables, called xheight and yheight. Parse the image and set these to the value of the image's height and width respectively. 5. From the image that was inputted, parse it into a 2d array, with its x and y values being the dimensions. This array can be called Image. 6. Create a double "for loop" like: for(int i = 0; i < xheight; i++) { for(int j = 0; i < yheight; j++) { y = list(range(0, yheight)) a = list(range(0, xheight)) Image[j][i] = [y][a] random.shuffle(y) random.shuffle(a) } } 7. In your main function, use plot or print or some imaging library to output Image as an actual image and not just as a 2d array. 8. Run the program, and see if it worked. If it didn't, debug it and try to fix it. Use stack overflow if needed. Btw, the little explanation I put up there is not complete, so you can't just submit it to Amok and say you completed it :D. Only if you are actually familiar with code will you understand what I wrote. Hopefully a bunch of people will apply for Amok's thing, and we will have a nice team of volunteers who will fix this site . You know nothing John Snow ---- Do you fear death?

Because you would really expect the people that made the game to be capable of maintaining it. Because they value their game at $100,000 but arent willing to hire a proper dev on a proper project fee. Need more raisins? Dont get me wrong... Its nice to see Amok actually doing something about the problems the game has now... but its taken him an awful long time to get to this point, and it just so happens he did it after the "silly strike". Like, why now? Because the ddos is more frequent? Because the game is starting to lose money and he wants to maintain his passive income?
