Spring RTS Engine

Seems to me that there was only some minor confusion here & no actual problem needs solving.

It's a command line interface iirc (although I've never mapconvng myself, pymapconv ftw) but you can find it documented on https://springrts.com/wiki/MapConvNG

I'm confident on never. Afaik no documentation of the engine network stuff exists outside of the source. If you actually intend doing anything, seems clear that you can just start with a fork of spring and try to remove stuff from spring-dedicated.

It is currently switched off on the main server, so email addresses and codes are not (yet) required.

Same problem, although perhaps some dl corruption too. There are multiple BA10.xx versions and multiple Spring 104.0.1-xxx versions. I guess your only way to find out is to try and match datestamps, but it won't be reliable. Basically, without active devs around, anything involving non-major game or...

Not compatible, you could try updating BA.

I can't answer your question but there is nothing 'pirate' about users (or indeed Spring sub-projects) running private servers - Uberserver/Spring/etc are GPL'ed and freely available. Private servers are just outside of the infra/codebase that is maintained as part of springrts.com.

You're changing the default font for Spring there. That's a global property, not a game specific property, so it doesn't assume that any particular game is installed -> it shouldn't be assumed to come from within a game archive. I guess that the VFS is not even loaded at some points where Springs de...

I don't think that's possible.

If we always simplify maintenance then we also need fewer maintainers Wrong way around. The (non-lua) AIs have few maintainers and then it becomes necessary to simplify their maintainence. Back on topic, Ideally we should remove all and make AIs possible to distribute without bundling them with Spr...

Seems reasonable to me.

Yeah, this was mad. The impact on newbies is 0, also it broke some stuff.

Iirc the metal and los views are done by shaders.

LuaMenu is documented in the same way as all other Lua states - the index of which states have which access/functionality/stuff is https://springrts.com/wiki/Lua:Environments, and the global list of all available lua stuff is https://springrts.com/wiki/Lua:Main All LD projects are at https://github....

The level and speed of automation (of ts/balance, colours, afk-ness, kicks/bans) mean that in practice a modern "human host" would simply be an autohost with voting turned off and a single person holding all the controls. This exists already as !boss mode. I haven't actively watched hosts for a whil...

Anarchid posted a link on discord and I had a look around... Intruigingly, it seems the (free) main game itself was removed from the steam store: https://store.steampowered.com/app/671690 redirects to steam home page However, you can still see its community & forums: https://steamcommunity.com/app/6...

As said, yes.

The issue tracker is kept up to date (and has been for at least the past year, probably much longer).

Some tickets are low priority enhancements which may or may not happen depending on their individual time/merits.
