Spring RTS Engine

Hi there... I believe I am in the right forum room.. ok. I have been playin XTA off and on for a long time. One thing that kinda bugs me is the speed at which the Nano Turrets come out of the construction vehicle/kbot. They are very slow and are in a way impractical. In AA/BA, I know that the Nano T...

Mr. D, u just hit it on the head brother. i agree 100%. thanks for the post.

I enjoy the feature because my games have become a whole lot fairer... the famous line of "whats a smurf?" has finally been cracked. god bless this feature!

I used seismic detectors and all I got was big red waves and lag. It didn't really...

I built an adv. crawling bomb and cloaked it on a game on Centerrock V12. I had enough energy and I walked it across one of the bridges. I watched it go and it was popped by a Doomsday machine... even though it was cloaked. This happened again on Altored Divide. I cloaked the bomb and it still was b...
