Spring RTS Engine

Nothing to change the actual mod options in there (ie coop mode)

Where is this hidden now...

Should be able to find out the threshold where sending too many commands actually affects the performance of a game (scaled to # of players even maybe) and log a message to console "WARNING: Beherith has sent 1200 commands in the last 6 seconds, this may affect game performance" then the h...

It becomes expected after the first time it happens just like a million other things in BA, dealing with these things is part of an adaptive process called 'learning how to play a game'.

Would have been nice to know that in advance

I suppose Commando doesn't get the damage from its minelaying attributed to it (or it fails a lot, probably both!)

If you want to add even more randomness to your explosion sounds you could also look into http://springrts.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?f=52&t=20685

Unless there's going to be a lobby feature for dynamic mod naming on options i'd much prefer BA chickens to be a seperate mutator so it's clear in the lobby what's being hosted.

Is there going to be a way to get hold of the list of targets the unit is considering cause 'AllowWeaponTarget' doesn't seem to allow you to implement BadTargetCategory if you don't know what else the unit would target if you declined the check...

For the record as I was credited on this release, I'm not happy with every change here, specifically: - Removed arm EMP bomber I disagree with removing any units, if EMP bomber was OP it should have been refactored somehow. - All fighter HP reduced to 50 (1-hit killed by all antiair) I think AA shou...

If anyone was wondering what I was thinking on why some of the T3 mechs weapons look different, its to reflect the 'Experimental' part of the factory and make them a little different from t1 and t2 effects where possible; if the new team wants to standardise them I'd consider it a shame myself. Ther...

Congrats on the release Beherith, I've moved house and only just got the internet back but incase anyone had any doubts yes it's legitimate and I'm passing on the torch of BA. I had been meaning to for months but was looking for the right person to take ownership, thanks to Beherith for stepping up ...

Btw I've been real busy the last week or two but have a release with sub fixes and stuff (nothing major really) just testing and crap and will try and publish at some point in the next few days!

I fixed the double squad spawning thing and added a kind of fade in effect to the dropship graphics (forgot to make it blue this commit oops).

I like the art style of BA and am not so lacking in imagination that boxy models spoil a game for me, primarily the gameplay is important. I don't see why there's a requirement for BA to look as real as possible at all and I don't see it as a failure of BA or lazyness that it doesn't. It succeeds in...

I am getting odd lag(masssive fps drops) but it seems to happen periodically. The custom flag capturing command causes massive lag for me when commanding groups of units and they get near a flag. I am writing a patch which scraps most of the existing underlying flag capturing code (preserving the s...

Updated again fixed C.R.A.I.G.!

Currently only works well on maps it has waypoints lists for, todo: adding something to auto generate them for maps that don't have them.

I just added some examples I'd previously made with dropships for Imperial Solar, E-Storage and Barracks based on the old gadget by KDR, these may need further work and maybe the gadget improving - definite potential I think though. Also added a dropship effect to the imperial commander at gamestart...

I ran into this problem with a synced move order IW was giving its Royal Guards. I'm certain that CMD.MOVE issued by Lua used to do the appropriate issuing of CMD.SET_WANTED_MAX_SPEED but now it doesn't and the solution looks something like: GUARD_SPEED = UnitDefs[GUARD_DEF_ID].speed/30 ... Spring.G...

Just committed a fix for broken Imperial Royal Guards :)
