Spring RTS Engine

Wow, he's still alive?

Didn't we go from "repulser" true to false to true again in the course of AA/BA development? IIRC, people didn't like the change when the non "repulser" shield was first implemented in the engine.

Wow, time really flies by! A big thanks to everyone on the dev / game teams, past and present!

Can you please rename the topic title to remind people this is where the repo / issue tracker location is posted?

Recluse got buffed? What are we, back to AA 2.1 days again?

Thanks Floris!

FYI, the 'Download' page still points to Spring 98.

Happy for you guys! Congrats!

Who knows, maybe the nerd rage will subside after he's married.

Fuckers complaining about Sniper in every game I play.

Unreasonable demands for this shit to be ported to Spring with a $0.00 bounty?

This actually looks really really good!

Should Spring have a Meta-Game 3D-Engine associated with it, which allows smoth translation from 3D in Webbrowser (Shogun-like maps, Galaxymaps, whatever) to the Engine? http://springrts.com/phpbb/download/file.php?mode=view&id=8975&sid=186854cdcc901f15547f0ed94aee85f0 Also , yes i consider...

EDIT: Actually, most of the gameplay changes seem somewhat random. In terms of the big picture, what's the direction being taken?

Gayter are no longer popular.

Thanks!

Will the repo would be made available to the public or interested parties?

I am interested in helping you work on UI coding / debugging.

Your biggest downfall will be latency. Either engine FPS, or gadgetized solution will both suffer from massive lag, and would be best used in single player. It's too laggy for "FPS" mode, but fpsview is shit to begin with, it is not useful. As is, directcontrol is plenty useful when used ...

I used to love FPS view. Then they made it no longer work properly. IIRC there should be a tag that disables it on a per unit basis. Unless that was removed... either way. I am all in favor of luafication of it. IMO it has no place in the engine, are you volunteering to do the lua gadget? I've had ...

Let's face it, FPS mode is pretty gimmicky. The ability to micro a single unit in a very precise manner, however, is not and could be exploited to create interesting (maybe novel) game mechanics in an RTS. I propose removing the guts of hard-coded FPS mode in favor of allowing it to be implemented m...
