Spring RTS Engine

- windows - hdd - virus scanner That's the majority of users, at least in ZK land. sd7/sdz has the drawback that it consumes more diskspace / traffic when multiple versions of the same game are installed It does, but we also live in an era of cheap terabyte-capacity drives and Spring content is *ti...

It seems that during LuaIntro, math.random() is not seeded yet Not quite true, the basecontent LuaIntro/config.lua does contain a math.randomseed(os.gettime()) call that was added to fix https://springrts.com/mantis/view.php?id=3962 (though it actually seeds all unsynced Lua states) prior to commit...

This might just be enough rope to hang not only yourself, but the entire world population ten times over.

Is there a possibility that you can share games/maps downloaded by pooling (pr-downloader/rapid) by assembling somehow an sd7 from your pool folder? Yes, this is actually how the ZK project distributes game updates: downloads are split up using the pool, sd z archives for each version are assembled...

needs a complementary command to write PicassoVM memdumps

Transports never follow the smoothmesh if given a load or unload order. You can work around this by inserting a move order (to roughly the same coordinates as the *load) in front of it.

Making aircraft look ahead further across terrain isn't too difficult but will cost performance.

Is it the full UnsyncedCtrl and UnsyncedRead?

No, only the functions listed in https://github.com/spring/spring/blob/d ... u.cpp#L205 and https://github.com/spring/spring/blob/d ... u.cpp#L255.

Animations are handled via scripted forward kinematics, with models consisting of a hierarchy of rigid 'pieces' (similar to bones, except here each piece vertex only receives influence from a single skeletal link) that are translated and rotated by game code dynamically. Baked (or real-time) inverse...

SM3 *support* was already removed long ago.

viewtopic.php?p=546048#p546048 is the reason the code still exists.

He so good. such smart.

Smart, but not quite smart enough to know that instead of exporting an env-var for Spring he could just do this...

It would be nice if a new engine would work well on most games before it is released, and not like it's now that lets release this engine so we get people to properly test it. 1) The major games managed to transition smoothly, take some responsibility for your own? 2) It would be even nicer if peop...

Does Spring rely on the Fixed Function Pipeline (whatever that is) at all? It does, as well as on GL3+ features. This is what makes Apple's decision to forego compatibility profiles problematic. Is it theoretically possible (given time/resources) to write a completely new rendering pipeline (e.g. b...

without it being 242MB

for the rest, read viewtopic.php?f=11&t=35995

A whole lot of work that is at least one major engine release away from being done.

Trace points to an OpenAL initialisation failure of some kind, no idea about the specifics.

What would you be if you were attached to another object by an inclined plane, wrapped helically around an axis? Requesting a core context is not an option yet, but you can change the 3's to 2's on line https://github.com/spring/spring/blob/develop/rts/Rendering/GlobalRendering.cpp#L31 to downgrade ...

I didn't write that to ask users for a wish list. I want Changed your mind already? - Total Lua memory usage (that counts towards the 800MB memory limit and is displayed in /debug). - Memory usage of each state separately (it's currently impossible to measure memory usage of synced states afaik). E...

Support for longer raw paths also requires a (moderately intelligent) layer to examine speed-modifier variance or players will complain about units taking more time to reach their goals across hills/puddles/etc despite moving in straight lines. I'm not convinced it would be advisable, but you can do...

When you bribe the right people to break us out of feature-freeze prison before releasing 104.

BA test servers can also just host {NativeRawMove}103.0.1-1475-g46eaa69 (or later) which is available for download via the link above.

the mod options change

Precisely, and what relation exists between unitdefs_post, the mod-option (string) "velocitymult" and the line referencing (number) unitDef.maxvelocity?
