Saturday, July 21st, the first release day of ProjectW.

At ten o'clock in the night, the entire software park Area B has fallen into darkness, and there are still a few companies with lights on, and the 13th floor Qingyu Network is one of them.

The version didn't go well, and in this alpha version of the process that needed to be tested, the first step to create a character was stuck, and nothing happened after clicking Create Character.

Ye Shenxi arranged the program and planned to troubleshoot the cause of the bug, and then notified the art team that they could go back first, but if Cao Ruo needed to stay, as the main beauty, she had to stay to deal with possible problems with art resources.

There are 3 people in the art group now, and the 3D art interviewed before, a young man named Han Dan, as Ye Shenxi expected, chose the herring fish network after selecting a circle, and he has arrived at the post this Monday and began to produce art resources.

"There's nothing wrong with the kid, right?" Ye Shenxi walked up to Cao Ruoruo and asked.

The 4-year-old son of Cao Ruoruo, a single mother, has had a fever recently, tired of taking care of it, and took half a day off yesterday afternoon to take the child to the hospital for infusion.

"I've been on the phone with my family, and I'm asleep." Cao Ruoruo shook her head to indicate that it didn't matter.

Ye Shenxi walked to Wei Cheng again, and the cause of the BUG had been found, which was a problem with the data configuration in the planning configuration table.

Most of the rules in a game are configured by the planner, the program builds the data structure, and the plan then fills in the content, the advantage is that it can be modified at will, and the program does not need to participate in it.

To give a simple example, if a piece of equipment increases physical attack by 50, if the planning feels too low and does not reflect the preciousness of this equipment, it can be changed to 100. Of course, such adjustments themselves are also numerically calculated.

The role system is in charge of Wei Cheng, Ye Shenxi looked at the configuration table, it was a very simple or even low-level mistake, and the format of filling in the values was wrong. In Ye Shenxi's opinion, such a mistake should not appear in the director-level planner.

Wei Cheng seemed to be ashamed and annoyed by this low-level mistake, and complained to Hao Yulin, who was sitting opposite him: "Didn't you say that you could fill it in like this?" "In the eyes of others, there are some obvious dumping behaviors.

Hao Yulin flatly denied it: "When did I say that at that time you said that your last project was in this data format, didn't I say that you can't fill it in like that, it will make the length of the ID number bigger and bigger, and it will be very troublesome to manage in the future." ”

Wei Cheng was scolded back, and he was even more annoyed: "Then did I let you do this structure?" ”

Hao Yulin argued: "But it's obviously not right to do that." ”

Wei Cheng's tone was aggravated: "Are you planning or am I?" You'll need to build the data table according to the needs of the plan! ”

Hao Yulin did not show weakness at all: "What kind of demand is that score." ”

Seeing that the more the two of them talked, the more angry they became, and even Xia Qingyu, who was dozing off on the side, looked over, Ye Shenxi knocked on the table and said, "I can't send a version yet, change the data table first." ”

He casually looked at the data sheet and saw at a glance that Hao Yulin's way was right, and Wei Cheng's anger came more from the provocation of his own authority.

Only then did Wei Cheng bury his head in re-changing the table, compiling, and uploading.

Ye Shenxi said again: "It's a communication problem, the two of you are seated face to face, and things like this must be discussed clearly in the future, don't take it for granted." You think he did it, and he thinks you did it, and no one knows how it was done. ”

"Hurry up, after the change, everyone enters the game to start the test, try to choose different characters, and run the process aside."

After the intranet server was reopened, all the members of the group were put into the test again, and encountered a few bugs in the middle that made the process unable to continue, so they continued to find the reason, modify, and retest, and it was almost one hour after several iterations.

Ye Shenxi didn't participate in the test, he told Wei Cheng to wait for them to run a few more times, and then tell himself when he felt that there was no problem, and he returned to his workstation alone to continue to work on his numerical part.

The numerical system is the core of a game, but also the most difficult place, and the numerical values of role-playing web games like ProjectW can be divided into growth, economy, and combat, which is the most basic framework. As for the subsequent additions such as equipment, partners, and tempering, a series of systems of the Yuan Shen need to be extended around the basic framework.

As the name suggests, growth is the amount of experience required for each level of player leveling, and the estimated number of battles and time required for players to level up.

The economy is the output of all the resources in the game, such as how many copper coins can be obtained by winning a dungeon, how many copper coins it costs for players to transform a piece of equipment, and how many realm points can be obtained by challenging the boss. This does not simply refer to the production and consumption of currency, all the resources obtained by players in the game to improve their strength are counted as economic values.

And the battle is what Ye Shenxi is calculating now, how much is the damage of a normal attack, and what is the skill attack? How many rounds is expected to end in a fight? What difficulty monsters should a player face at level 60?

In the field of numerical planning, there is a word called "flattening", which is what players call balance, and it is especially important to draw between different classes of players. Suppose a player with the same combat power fights the same monster, and class A wins the battle in three rounds, while class B needs five rounds, then wouldn't all players choose class A?

The numerical value is the most important part of a game that needs to be carefully polished, so from the very beginning, Ye Shenxi did not intend to hand it over to others.

While thinking about it, someone patted him on the shoulder, only to see Xia Qingyu with a tired face, handed him a bottle of Red Bull, and held a bottle in his hand.

Xia Qingyu's biological clock has always been very healthy, even if she usually works overtime until nine o'clock in the evening, she will go to bed on time before eleven o'clock, and now she is already sleepy at this time.

Ye Shenxi took the drink and said, "Why don't you go back first?" I'm staring here anyway. ”

Xia Qingyu yawned, with tears in the corners of his eyes, shook his head and said: "No need, I am the leader, and I always have to set an example for everyone, and besides, so many people are watching, I slipped away by myself, is it ugly." ”

Ye Shenxi smiled: "I'm afraid it's not the main reason for the latter." ”

Xia Qingyu himself smiled: "It seems to be true." ”

Ye Shenxi said with some pity: "Why don't you go to the office and lie down for a while, and I'll call you later." ”

Xia Qingyu didn't insist anymore, she also felt that she was already confused, and handed another can of Red Bull in her hand to Ye Shenxi: "Okay, call me when it's almost time later, don't wait for everyone to run out, I'll announce the successful release of the first project of our Qingyu Network, ProjectW, version number alpha." ”

Ye Shenxi responded: "Okay, okay, no problem, you go to sleep." ”

After Xia Qingyu entered the office, Ye Shenxi walked to Hao Yulin again and asked, "What's the situation now, what are the problems?" ”

Hao Yulin replied while checking the code: "Stuck in the entry copy, looking for the reason." ”

"What about the other questions? Is this one? ”

"There's another one.,NPC dialogue shows that there's a problem.,But the reason has been found.,The plan is changing the table.,Other problems haven't been found yet.。

Ye Shenxi snorted, and walked to Liu Jiehui again, the content of this version actually has nothing to do with him, but the current progress of the combat module is a little lagging behind, and he needs to catch up with the progress, so he will be left to accompany him.

Liu Jiehui is discussing with Cao Ruoruo about art resources, art resources are too large, resulting in a long loading time into the battle scene, and the two are discussing how to reduce the size of resources while ensuring the picture performance.

Speaking of which, this guy is also miserable, just in the first week of employment, he encountered a version release day that may require an all-nighter, but looking at his energetic appearance, he discussed with Cao Ruoruo, I am afraid that he is the best one in the company at present.

Ye Shenxi did this for a while, and then walked around to check the progress, and so on, until it was almost 4 o'clock, Wei Cheng finally came over and said that the process had been completely completed.

So Ye Shenxi directly occupied Wei Cheng's computer and began to test it himself: "Have you run through all the professions?" ”

Wei Cheng nodded and said, "There are 3 professions, and both male and female characters have run. ”

At this time, the whole group ran over, crowded behind Ye Shenxi and watched the final test strongly, looking nervous and expectant.

Ye Shenxi created a flying feather class, selected a female character, clicked on a random name, and entered the game. Create a role, normal;

Entering the game, the character and scene resources are successfully loaded, which is normal;

Talk to NPCs, display avatars, dialogue panels, dialogue content, normal;

Control the character to run around the small fishing village town, normal;

Select the copy interface, normal;

Enter the dungeon, the field scene is loaded, normal;

Approaching the monster, the monster takes the initiative to move towards the character, collides with the monster, enters the battle, normal;

The battle ends directly, and the winning screen is displayed, which is normal;

After a trip to the process, the first project of the Qingyu network, the first version other than the DEMO, can be said to have been completed, although there are still some lag and loading problems, but those are all things that will be slowly optimized and improved in the follow-up work.

Ye Shenxi raised his hands above his head, clapped his hands and said, "Everyone has worked hard, let's withdraw, you don't have to come over tomorrow, have a good rest for a day, and sleep lazy." ”

Finally called it a day, although everyone was happy at this time, they didn't have much strength to cheer, and soon packed up their things, said goodbye to Ye Shenxi and left, and discussed whose house lived in what direction, and who carpooled with whom.

After everyone left, Ye Shenxi opened the door of the general manager's office, the lights in the room were off, and Xia Qingyu was already curled up on the couch, as if he had fallen asleep.

Ye Shenxi didn't wake up Xia Qingyu, and went out to turn off the lights in the office area before coming back.

The bright moonlight reflected into the room through the glass window, shining on the undulating silhouette of the summer herring lying on its side, outlining a faint halo, and the software garden at this time could only hear the cicadas chirping and the long snort of the beautiful woman in front of her.

Ye Shenxi looked at it for a while.

Xia Qingyu was facing inward, her hands clasped tightly in front of her chest, and a blanket covering her body had slid to her waist in her restless writhing.

Ye Shenxi leaned over, covered her blanket, and then sat down on the single sofa next to her, closed her eyes and fell asleep.

At this time, Xia Qingyu's eyes suddenly opened, and the two eyes in the darkness shone brightly.
