Spring RTS Engine

Yup. My idea.

Maybe the SY have something going on that a little peon like myself doesn't know about, but since the release of spring, forum activity has skyrocketed. It has become increasingly difficult to track what's going on - and I do this for a living. I mean, with people like Storm releasing maps on other ...

Read the readme. It's there in black and white.

Fawk that noise. I'm going back to playing the original TA.

Uh, since sourceforge is now a mirror, I won't be mirroring any files.

Jesus.

Did you even look at the forums?

Look first. Post second.

Good for you. But I think the developers use the resources available. How about you go and write a client in C and then come back before complaining about it.

You're kidding, right?

Download the game. Read the thing that's called the README!

Thank god it didn't make the front page.

It would suck if the server crashed from a slashdotting.

In TA, you set a cannon to fire on the ground and then move a peewee into it, then it will die there too...

I'll focus on the upper half of the screen: Foldout. Foldout foldout foldout. This will solve many problems. Energy, units and metal e...

Give me enough time to set it up and I'll set up a mirror on our servers... give it something stupid like 100 gigs of bwandwidth for this month.

Should be done by end of day today.

That's great, but some people don't have the luxury of reading every post. I agree, the gallery needs to be updated.

I would be more than happy to set up a mirror on my servers.

What would you guys think of having an impenetrable wall of fog beginning at the playable edge of the map? It might be necessary for maps to extend another 10% out to accommodate the fog. This would look nice on island-type maps I think, not too sure about land maps. Either way, with some tweaking,...

Uh...

The term you get what you pay for comes to mind.

What a about a unique identifier key? Let's say that the system is invite only - you send someone an email, and in that email is a url, with a query string key - that key is a unique key, which would never work again, obviously. Something like (and I use PHP for this example: index.php?action=downlo...

It would be nice if the Arm and Core logo could be replaced by your own logo, which would be a simple grayscale bmp dumped in Spring and then read and used by the engine for all your units, just like in Black & White. .

I like, I like...

What a kick ass idea.
