Spring RTS Engine

Yup, fixed the problem, though I've never had this issue with any other program, can it be fixed in spring?

When playing at a resolution of 1920x1200, the bottom of the screen is cut off slightly. It cuts off around the middle of where Metal/energy information is given on a selection of units. This also means if i put my mouse to the bottom of the screen, the screen doesn't move down. It's easy to get aro...

I have a monitor with the resolution 1920x1200 and another with resolution 1280x1024, how do I setup dual screen mode with this? the settings.exe only accepts 1 resolution and with different heights for both, stretching across the screen doesn't work (i get an error), any help?

widget per thread is not a workable idea - I don't think the lua interpreter is threadsafe. Whole LuaUI in a thread would be doable, I guess, but only with great care. doh! didn't think about that. Edit: It's far too easy to confuse yourself when thinking about multi-threading things. I was origina...

While I'm not sure how widgets are loaded/run currently, it should be pretty easy to multithread LUA widgets - giving each widget its own thread. There are practically no dependancies (if any) from spring to the widgets themselves so it could bring some easy performance gains to those who run a lot ...

In CS the graphical FPS match the calculation FPS. Like I say, while I can't see the difference between 60 and 100 FPS, the game feels different, because it's running fewer calculation paths per second. This is most notable with bhopping. Both scripted and mousewheel, a 100 fps bhop is alot more re...

i lol wen people say BA is more balanced than CA especially people who havent played CA in months or ever and people whove played CA get pwned trying to play it like BA and says its balance sucks CA games r more varied than BA games in general... My experience of CA in team games; noobs die and los...

You should submit it on mantis or in the dev forum maybe :) Forgive the newbieness, but the current spring already does use the cpu's nicely - half of each max, to be exact. (confused :| ) Edit: So now it'll be able to go above halves at times? Thats just the same thread switching over from 1 proces...

Hmm, nice. You implemented InvSqrt, what about regular sqrt? Also, your initial guess magic number seems weird, why 0x5f3759d5? I would use 0x5f375a86. Also the number of iterations needed must be considered. 0 iterations could sometimes be useful - it is very fast, and still relatively accurate. A...

Clearly you misunderstand me.... TD is taking a break while I get acclimated to my job and do gundam models. In your last post you say TD is taking a break. This suggests you're the only one working on TD as otherwise you'd say you were taking a break from TD. From this I can deduce that other contr...

Does anyone apart from smoth work on this mod? As far as i can tell, nothing at all has been done in the last 4 months (since october) - is this project dead?

Replays should be stamped with the start time of the game and the duration. It should also be sorted by date. Its pretty meaningless to have: Cometcatcher300108- 0 Cometcatcher300108- 1 Cometcatcher300108- 2 Cometcatcher300108- 3 Cometcatcher300108- 4 Cometcatcher300108- 5 Cometcatcher300108 For sta...

Yup had this exact same thing several times, it seems to fix itself when the game is restarted though Oo

you can view teams 11+ using ctrl+1/2/3 etc :) i'll add buttons for spec view in next version.

Made this widget last night :D . It moves the camera to the team you are selecting with 1,2,3, etc. Only works for specs.

1v1s are pretty fun, but are too intense to play for a lot of people. Quite a few people have told me they dont like to 1v1 because its so intense and you need to be on the ball to play a good 1v1. I prefer 2v2s to 1v1s when i have my friends as allys and big team games can be a nice break/relaxing....

Could you combine this with LOS so that the fog thickness gets thicker with distance?

-No atlas dropping your commander into the enemys start position in the first 10 minutes. So i can Walk the commander to the enemy base then? I'd assume so....I once got told I "lost" a game i was playing because I LLT creeped into the enemys base with my com about 7 minutes into the game...

why is the rule 10 minutes? making it a 3 minute rule would be fine. Why shouldn't I be able to air drop @ 7 or 8 minutes? he's had 7/8 minutes to build ONE piece of aa in his base, while i have just spent probably 1k in metal and a lot of time building an air factory. In a fast start you can have y...

meaning? I've seen most of the other lobbies, and apart from some added functionality, they all look almost exactly the same...The only problem with my lobby design is cross compatibility with other lobbies. lolol, satiriks lobby and altarics lobbies are forks! Theyre nto complete lobbies! Dont be ...
