That shouoldnt affect this, if half of all families have 2 robots and the other half have none, do you have 50% or 100% of familise with robots?

Umm...

Reducing speed would also make them more venrable to lasers.

By god this is the stupidest idea i've heard in ages, why the F.U-K do you need a fsking animated banner? How much horsesh.t have you numskulls been swallowing? You don't need a fsking animated banner BECAUSE THERE's NO POINT. Christ ive heard some bad ones, but this takes the fsking cake. http://w...

There is a formula, but it would require the most complex of complex of mathematics, the factors involved are inumerable, and even include the player himself.


Best way is good ol trial and error.


(it's probably not actualy a formula, but i used that word becasue it fits best)

yess, there is, you press h.

It would be nice if an air transport could define what units it could carry, so you'd need a heavier air transport to carry say... a korgoth..


For mods ofcourse.

^Not necesairly, you could just make a few realy long piles that extend far beyond the origin of the building, downwards to a depth no mapper in the right mind would use, then these would intewrsect the ground nicely. (Well, i dont know if it would wotrk like that in spring, but that's generaly how ...

A little OT, but could we get the click+drag thing to show the unit "holograms" like it did with the original simple formation AI?

1) Oh noes!!!!

whadaya mean aliens wouldnt bother with us?!?!?! We'd flip out if we fopund microbes on mars!

That said the key word is "Flip out", having a few super high tech ships probe someone analy every few months dows not qualify.

Yeah, dont get me started on l2 bombers, an l2 bomber swarm will just ruin your day unless you were preparing for it beforehand, flares make anything but flak useless against them and they pack quite a whallop.

if you control a merl and fire right away the missile will launch before the bay is opened and it is raised casuing it to explode within the launch bay.... well, probably not exactly like that, but whatever...

personaly, i think the brawlers could stand tyo do a tad less damage against base structures, that should be a bombers job...

Also you can draw "The line" right by the enemies base :D.

I havent frogoten about you guys, just that right now i`m going for a short tour around quebec before going to uni, as such i only have the occasional internet cafe and dont have photoshop, or spring, at my disposal. Tommorow or the day after i shjould be set up with my real computer, and will proba...

it does, but say i set a unit to move to a place to be picked up then another place, it'l go to the first place, and the air transport will try to lift it, but before the air transport can catch it the unit will be en route to the second place (where you wanted it to go to after being lifted) and as...

i just wish "L" would update more frequently.

Would it be possible for units that have a friendly transport trying to pick them up to stop moving so that it can take them? I'd liek to be able to use air transports to bridge a gap then put a factories end rally point on the other side but as it is units will go to the pickup zone then try to fin...
