| Summary | 0006065: 104.0.1-869-g204d265 maintenance Formation move regression | ||||
| Description | The removal of SET_WANTED_MAX_SPEED appears to have an associated regression regarding queuing multiple different wanted speeds. A proper removal of SET_WANTED_MAX_SPEED may involve adding a parameter to most commands which sets the wanted speed of the unit. This solution seems worse than the original cludgyness of SET_WANTED_MAX_SPEED. | ||||
| Steps To Reproduce | * Spawn a fast unit and a slow unit (cloakraid and dyntrainer_support_base in this example). * Issue a Fight command with Ctrl (the move in formation and at the same speed modifier). * Issue a Fight command with Shift (the queue modifier). The expected behaviour is for the units to move in formation and at the same speed to the first waypoint, then move at their maximum speed to the second. The observed behaviour is that the fast unit starts to move at its maximum speed, while executing the first command, when the second command is queued. | ||||

fyi I don't see myself doing any of the potential solutions for a (long) while so you may have to reintroduce CMD_SWMS as a custom Lua command if formation speed mechanics matter in ZK. |
|
|
Then can we (temporarily) have SET_WANTED_MAX_SPEED back? A custom command is likely to be even more terrible than the engine implementation of SET_WANTED_MAX_SPEED. Alternately, I request a way for LuaUI to set the wanted max speed of a unit. Something happens when units are issued a Fight+Ctrl order which (looking at the changelog) I see no way for luaUI to emulate. |
|
|
Another factor to take into account is that the removal of SET_WANTED_MAX_SPEED seems to have broken CircuitAI. See https://github.com/rlcevg/CircuitAI/issues/91 |
|
|
For formation orders specifically you can detect when a move/fight command has the control-bit (options.ctrl) and handle speed control in a gadget, though this might require a small engine change to allow overriding the default group-move regulator. AI's can also send control-bit orders so repairing Circuit shouldn't be a major obstacle. |
|
|
Well, here is a gadget which implements the engines current behaviour for Fight: https://github.com/ZeroK-RTS/Zero-K/blob/master/LuaRules/Gadgets/unit_wanted_speed.lua All commands cause the gadget to re-sets maxWantedSpeed because almost all commands seem to cause the engine to un-set maxWantedSpeed. Could commands registered as CMDTYPE.ICON_MODE be made to not affect maxWantedSpeed? Another solution would be to let lua determine which commands affect maxWantedSpeed. |
|
|
I'll probably just make the engine system opt-out with a blanket switch. |
