War for the Overworld is an upcoming real-time strategy video game developed by Subterranean Games. The game started as a Kickstarter campaign, which ran from November 29, 2012 to January 3, 2013. In the game, players build dungeons containing deadly traps to kill adventuring heroes that enter. The game is inspired by Dungeon Keeper, StarCraft, Overlord, and Evil Genius. It will include a campaign, sandbox mode, and online multiplayer. In the game, players assume the role of an Underlord tasked with building dungeons that contain deadly traps and enemies to kill wandering heroes. The game starts with a blank slate and lets players choose where to "dig, fortify, and build" to create their dungeon. The game is played in real time, with the player actively making decisions while fighting occurs. Armies of minions can be trained and commanded to vanquish foes, and spells are available which can injure enemies or assist minions during battle. The game requires micromanagement to keep minion …

      Editing … pos doesn't even work most of the time. E.g. I enter the word "toast" in the search bar and it says "no exact match found". If I enter the word again, it recommends me completely unrelated, random pages.

      Editing … And sometimes you write like "toas" and there's no page, you write the last t and it finally shows you the page,but only for a split second, so you have to add a space and then delete it to get the page :I

      Editing … Well, the problem Crash mentions is obviously just a design choice. It even says "No *exact* matches found" when typing "toas," as there are no pages in the database that have the individual word "toas" in it. Of course, most websites would list all instances of "toas," so I can understand the complaint. As for the other complaints. Well, that's just par for the course when using AJAX. It happens because the site's slow, your internet's slow, your computer's slow, you type too fast/slow, etc. It can be fixed by increasing the delay until it submits your search, so the site doesn't decide you've already finished typing when you were still busy, and only submits a partial query, resulting in no results or completely unrelated ones.

      Editing … I understand this too. What Crash said is exactly what I get all the time. I have to delete the last letter and re-enter it to get my page instead of a random one.

      Editing … Exactly, like I've been saying the whole time. Type in "t", "o", "a", "s", "t" and FL sends out the search queries "t", "to", "toa", "toas", "toast" – four unwanted and totally unnecessary search queries until it finally gets to "toast". For ONE user. Imagine 7,ooo users using the search at the same time. Breakdown. — The search is overall suboptimal. As soon as you type the first space " " it starts to only search for *exact* word matches; the space to show the search results is limited; you can't filter by category; you can't search for lists; it doesn't even show all results, it caps at 5o (i.e. "Mario"); and it sometimes doesn't become apparent why something is listed due to AKAs (or other reasons) not being shown. — @nod, You get the same result by pressing CTRL. You don't have to delete/re-enter anything.
