Wall slots not accessible through API · · 6 likes

Through "Torn > territory" selection of the API the following data is returned for all territories.

However, clicking on any territory on the map will yield the following information:

The main difference is that you can't get the number of wall slots through the API. Looking at these two territories, it seems like it's not possible to use sector, size, density or respect values alone to get the number of wall slots. I think wall slots should be accessible through the API too because it's public information.

You can find out any territory's wall slots manually by going to their respective pages (e.g. https://www.torn.com/city.php#terrName=GTB). You might need to download all territories before attempting it.

The most important application of this data that comes to mind is the calculation to see if a wall has been defended successfully by dividing the remaining wall time in seconds by the number of wall slots.

I have unlocked the Looter title (What's that for anyway? I can't find it in the wiki) but my profile says "Looted" instead

Cannot access Torn on desktop · · 0 likes

I recently moved to Belgium and I am accessing Torn with my campus WiFi (eduroam) on mobile. This access works fine and I had no issues whatsoever.

However, I cannot access Torn on desktop, as it says it is checking my browser indefinitely and it just keeps refreshing the page.

Before posting here I tried the following:
- Clearing all browser's cache
- Disabling all extensions and themes
- Switching between Linux and Windows OS

I did not try to change browser (I'm using Firefox) as the browser has not seen recent updates, and it was working fine before.

It seems to be related to the fact I'm now in Belgium, given the timing, but I have no issue playing on mobile with TPDA.

Wall slots not accessible through API ·

Thanks for the quick fix, and sorry to bother again, but could you also add this in the "Faction > territory" selection? It would reduce the number of calls from 2 to 1 (querying directly "Faction > territory" instead of "Torn > territory" and "Faction > basic" to get the faction ID).
