Spring RTS Engine

omg that site pops up offering a lot of malware... And, of course, files have expired. A torrent would be lovely.

2- That is the hardest one. To be the most similar to what the game behaves now, gradual reclaim should not work on «live» units. Wouldn't it be more logical that a unit thats being gradually reclaimed shouldn't autoheal? Trouble is, what if you stop reclaiming, and then wait for it to heal. ...

Also commands to delete first and last waypoint in the selected unit's list would be nice. I know its kinda noob but i still sometime set up a complicate list of orders without realising the unit is already guarding something and have to do it all again. Damn annoying. It can be fiddly, but it's al...

I'm sure you've already thought of these exploits, but I'll throw em out just to be sure... I only have a basic knowledge of the game so these might not even be functional exploits anyway... 1) If I reclaim most of a wreck, then ressurect it, is there a risk I could turn a profit on the exercise? 2)...

Not selecting 'Dynamic Water' in the settings means you won't have to worry about waves, but you already know this, so perhaps I'm misunderstanding what you are after.

I haven't spotted an option to turn off smoke though.

Reduce Flare frequency? Only allow flares to be triggered by an actual threat (missle in the air), and then apply the rate of fire? They already basically only get one flare before they die. And the flares are only triggered by a missile that's been launched. The problem is that the reload time on ...

You've got a thread for the same topic in the mods subforum. I replied in detail in that thread.

I suggest a mod merges the two threads or closes one of them.

I think he's after comparisons between different systems. By "XTA/Other mod" I think he means he doesn't mind which mod you use, just let him know for comparison. Emmanuel, you will also need to get people to advise their Spring settings, and cpu/gfx card very relavent too. I use an Athlon...

The dynamic water is quite beautiful when moving ships or looking at submarines, but is not very exciting in regard to explosions. The foam effect is quite appropriate, but the waves understated. The waves almost appear to have been affected by the impact of the missile (in no greater amount than by...

ok... Two nukes, one viewed from up high, one from down low. I used AA 2.11, as it has big nukes... I maxxed out my settings using settings.exe (if these 'high' explode tags are set somewhere else then you'll need to tell me where.) It's under 7mb. I had to upload it to putfile as FU was down. It pl...

I think the former of the two methods you've listed here is the method described in one of the articles on this site. I'll have to test to see if I get the same results as you. Regarding the latter method - was the problem so bad you couldn't issue new orders to the transports, or would they just no...

Hmm. Maybe it's something to do with the fact you are issuing the order to so many transports at once. If you issue the repeat orders individually to each transport, is it ok? I haven't tried issuing orders to such a large transport fleet before.

(Hi CaptM, yes I do recognise you from sah )

I'm guessing you had port forwarding set up on the router, and have lost these settings.

I think you need to get a move order in that queue of yours immediately after the 'load' order (instead of (or as well as) immediately after the 'unload' order.)

I'll make a short clip for you when I get home from work tonight, emmanuel.

You just want to see a nuke hitting water on maximum settings right?

Would you like me to use an XTA sized Nuke or a AA sized Nuke?

BTW, referring back to original post. You can acheive this by building one slow unit (doesn't have to be a strong unit, just a slow one) then getting some other units to guard it. Then it looks like you have a group of slow units. Of course slow /= strong, but I guess not everybody realises that.

Two words: Dirt Bomb. Would it be plausible to make a weapon that instead of cratering, had the reverse affect of 'mounding'? Then you could just design a unit/emplacement that fired a weapon that used this ability to raise the land over the water level... Some sort of slow firing, short range build...

Sweet I've gotta give this a try. I'd promised myself I wouldn't try any other mods until I'd got the hang of AA, but with Epic, what you've got is a nice "killer app" to make me try EE

Hidden should be able to see FURTHER than Clout, not the other way around. Remember your intention is knowledge vs firepower. Clout should be playing almost blind by comparision, but has it's shields/firepower to make up for it.

I vaguely remember seeing a thread talking about a version of AA that was uploaded with a minor problem and rereleased a couple of hours later with same version number... Maybe that's your problem (and your mate has the same downloaded version.) Don't have time to hunt the exact thread/message, but ...
