You said you were going to make games, how did you become the richest man without doing anything?

Chapter 38 This is not something you can talk about
The four people divided the work among themselves. Lu Yu was responsible for checking the main program code, while the other three people helped him and repaired the modules they were responsible for.

It took two days to repair it.

Although, Lu Yu still didn't quite understand every detail of the gameplay.

However, after taking a quick look at the server code, he still found three key problems.

"Fourth Brother, did you design the code for the matching mechanism?" Lu Yu took a sip of coffee.

"Hmm~ What do you think? The dynamic matching mechanism is simply a genius design, right?"

Chuxiong's eyes were bright.

Lu Yu sighed: "Let me ask you, what if gold farming studios are rampant?"

This question stumped Chu Xiong.

In this day and age, game gold farming studios are very common.

Their main mode of operation is to purchase a large number of high-configuration computers to open multiple game clients, and then use small accounts to continuously farm scarce game resources, and then sell them to rich people who have spare money but no time.

For many games, gold farming studios are destructive to the economic system.

Moreover, gold-farming studios basically enter the same area in batches of dozens, so other players in this area basically have no gaming experience.

"If you're creating this world's central island and allowing free trade across all servers, then eliminating the existence of studios is a top priority."

After that, Lu Yu bought a series of anti-cheating and anti-plug-in program components from Youyi Workshop.

In addition, Lu Yu added a mechanism to the game to limit logins from the same IP address, and the sea area that each player enters is completely randomly assigned.

In particular, the closer the two IP addresses are, the less likely they are to match the same sea area.

Lu Yu rubbed his brows and asked again: "Let me ask you again, if all the players in the server are crowded on the central island of the world, what will happen to the server capacity?"

Chu Xiong was speechless again. He really hadn't considered this matter.

Lu Yu pointed out: "Split the line, split the line. When the number of players reaches the upper limit, open a new line."

The principle is similar to that of many online games that have different channels, and players can freely switch to the channel they want.

After finishing this, he stretched himself and asked again:
"Fatty, your dynamic matching mechanism is a good idea, but it also has loopholes. Let me ask you something.

If all farming players are matched with other farming players, a certain sea area will be filled with autistic players.

The resources needed to upgrade a key technology for one of the players happen to be on another island, and the players on that island are also very introverted and don't socialize at all. What should I do? Isn't this a dead end?"

Chu Xiong opened his eyes wide, suddenly realized, and then sighed with shame.

"As expected of Brother Lu, the three questions he casually raised all hit the nail on the head."

Lu Yu tapped the keyboard again and added a patch for dynamic matching:
If the sea area is matched by an autistic player, the system will re-coordinate the allocation of resources so that each player's island can have all the resources needed to upgrade technology.

However, because the total amount of resources remains unchanged, the development speed of autistic farming players will be much slower than that of social players.

But the advantage is that you can be self-sufficient on your own island and don’t have to force yourself to socialize.

On Thursday, Lu Yu cleaned up the obvious bugs and loopholes in the program and began to process the audio resources.

He took a deep breath, prepared himself mentally, and then put on his headphones.

However, to his surprise, a lot of the music was not as gloomy as he had imagined, and the later it got, the more he could hear Zhang Qiqi's progress.

She even carefully added a lot of natural ambient sounds.

"Some funeral songs, I have already abandoned."

Lu Yu nodded. It seemed that the songs in the resource library were the most earthly songs she could find.

Lu Yu thought about it and rearranged the music in the music library according to the production date.

When players first enter the game, they are exposed to Zhang Qiqi's relatively immature songs. As the game progresses, they will hear more mature and complex songs.

After organizing the sound effects, Lu Yu took another look at the art resources.

There are many Q-version hand-drawn drawings in the project files, including characters, animals, and elves. And like Zhang Qiqi's sound effect resources, they are a bit immature in the early stage, but become more complex and more obvious in the later stages.

Lu Yu did not make any changes to the art files.

After all, Liu Mengyuan had previously made a small hit, Cat Girl Paradise, so it wasn't a big problem.

The entire process of fixing the bug caused Lu Yu's memories of his previous life in the workplace to attack him crazily again.

The system screen flickered constantly, and the four people's leisure points fluctuated back and forth. This week, they were truly walking a tightrope, trying to avoid the tragedy of the game failing due to endless bug fixes, while also trying to avoid the tragedy of losing a lot of leisure points.

It is very difficult to strike the right balance.

Lu Yu could only increase the amount of drinks and food he ate.

However, the leisure points that were hard-earned were quickly consumed by the subsequent bug fixing work...

……

On Friday evening, Lu Yu finished his coffee and stretched.

After five days of hard work, I finally managed to organize a large pile of project files into the appearance of a game.

He clicked on the system screen and saw that his leisure point income for this week was: -2.5.

Wow, I didn’t make a penny this week and lost 250 yuan.

This loss figure seemed to be mocking Lu Yu's stupidity, as he accidentally "tipped" his employees and made a big news.

It seems that in the future, we need to consider the design of various underlying systems of the company and how to avoid being backstabbed by these employees, and instead let them generate leisure points with peace of mind, so as to achieve sustainable fishing.

As for Liu Mengyuan, his proficiency points this week were simply amazing.

The bug-detecting skills of all four people have improved significantly.

Especially Lu Yu.

[Congratulations, your boss Lu Yu has triggered the minimum number of bug repairs, and his bug cleaning skill has been upgraded to Lv3]

Liu Mengyuan didn't understand why he was so skilled at fixing bugs, it was almost like it had become muscle memory.

So skilled that it makes people feel distressed.

But, there is no doubt that Liu Mengyuan and the other two are now truly convinced of their boss Lu Yu.

In just one week, we can sort out a mess into a structure that can be launched smoothly.

This person doesn't look like a fresh graduate with no development experience, he looks like a veteran who has been in the industry for more than ten years!

……

On Friday evening, after Lu Yu confirmed that the bug had been fixed, he clicked the publish button.

"My Leisurely Island Life" will be officially launched at 8 am next Monday, almost at the same time as "Dog Paradise Adventure".

Lu Yu also set the game's pricing:

The game uses a monthly card system. Players pay 15 yuan every month to play all the content of the game.

Apart from this, there will be no additional charges.

The first 24 hours of the game are free to try.

Seeing that the game was about to be released, everyone's faces were filled with nervousness and anticipation, especially Chu Xiong and Zhang Qiqi. After all, this was the first game they participated in producing.

In the evening, Chuxiong and Zhang Qiqi left first. Liu Mengyuan ordered a cappuccino and sat with Lu Yu in the cat cafe for a while.

Thinking about everything Lu Yu had done since the vacation, Liu Mengyuan was moved and emotional.

She held her chin and said softly:

"Actually, developing games has always been my dream. Thank you for making my dream come true. I owe you a favor."

Lu Yu rubbed his chin.

Girl, you shouldn't casually say "I owe you a favor" to a man.

Once you owe a favor, there are many ways to repay it.

Fortunately you met me, I am a gentleman!

Lu Yu had a righteous look on his face and a sweet taste in his mouth:
"Okay, then I'll accept this favor."

One day, Miss Liu, you must pay me back bitterly...

"What do you think the performance of our game will be?" Liu Mengyuan blinked.
