Ark Nova-Thought 100 was a winning score for solo?

Post by ZMamasita »

I'm fairly new to Ark Nova and just played a solo game. I ended with a score of 100 but it still listed it as a "defeat". I thought 100 and up was a winning score?

The rules would agree with you. Raise a bug report for it.

It's been flagged for a while, but changing ">" to ">=" takes more than a year apparently :

That's because it's already >= in the code, which is why it's so hard to debug. It seems to occur randomly

Change it to > 99?

Again, that's not the issue. The problem was that some part of that code was simply not executed, due to interaction with the solo challenge mode.
It is fixed in arknovamw and will be deployed on prod once map pack 2 is ready
