Spring RTS Engine

It seems like a good set of changes.

Air superiority was nerfed and some underused units got deserved buffs.

GJ

Could u upload last versions to http://modinfo.adune.nl/ to make comparison easier?

I dont want to take part in discussing the changes in detail here but I do want to give my opinion. Changes I definitely like: -Samson nerf -enemy com untransportable -precision bombers -all the behind-the-scenes changes Changes I like the idea behind but the implementation needs tweaking: -fighter...

I welcome all under the hood changes.

However, I feel all these balance changes will make games much more porcy.

Some air change was needed though as until now air was by far the best game finisher. Player with more fighters ussually won.

Andy is awsome microer, not super good in big games like FFA though.

I remember beating him only once in 1v1 , it was on comet catcher, he spamed flash i spamed leveler and he did not adapt

I found that some widgets in ZK make CPU spikes for me.

Do anyone know, how could I detect widget that is making CPU spikes? Widget profiler only shows comulative percentage per widget and i would need graph or usage in ~last second .

TY.

Thanks, and I will carry BA on in the spirit TFC kept it in.

Ty TFC for all good work.

And good luck Beherith and Niobium for all future work

Renaming would break all my BA shortcuts for instance, i use space+shift+e for mex for instance and it works in BA or ZK, but not in XTA cause they renamed.

I kinda like zerok, somehow its much better than CA.

All catapult needs is double life (12k life ) OR much cheaper cost, lets say 3k.

ATM is totaly useless unit.

I commented some lines in this file to get rid of buttons like Move, attack, fight etc. Works fine, but not with all guis. I use LOL ui.

I agree, moho exploiters are not worth it. They needed at least 20% cost down to be considered. + Give them 7k hp in all states, not only in opend form.

TFC:

-plz fix subs that can be attacked by all units atm

sidenote: t2 static torpedo launcher is mostly useless, buff HP or reduce cost to make it usefull defence unit.

The Fatboy doesn't have sufficient shot velocity to attain its listed range. Instead it's range varies quite a bit based on the maps gravity. Moon maps: 800 range Tabula: 764 range DSD: 700 range Altored: 646 range Problem is present with: Fatboy, Fido, Pillager, Luger, Crusader, Warlord, and Tremo...

Hey, i am up for it, 1v1 or bigger also ofc. Sea is decided much faster than land imo, cause on land com + static defense protect you. Sea has weak static and weak comm - once u loose key battle u loose. too bad imo. T1 units: dest > subs vets > dest subs > vets So mixing is vital and really delicat...

I fully agree wtih this.

I like the concept, but I dislike the fact that on such small map neigbours will allways fight to death at start (with com push). That means games will end fast , and ones born without neigbours get HUGE advantage. It seems not nearly as balanced as dworld or mearth, but i played only twice and time...

I mean choppiness and also fps drops.

I noticed it on TMA-0 when we 3 had big ecos. FPS went down to 2 which never happend in prev version.

I also notice cpu spikes in big games. I reported here:

Good luck.

Its only usefull on 16 player FFA on throne. Target eco or nanofarms.

But its better that way, what is the fun getting killed by some tacnukes?

As long as it does not touch my file I will use new springsettings. Glad u found error.

I guess your user friendly editor will help new players, not IT pros like me

Yea its a big binding file, but very usefull to me.

I would leave golly HP, allready very expensive unit that is hard to use, slow and weak on his own. I take 2-3 reapers over goly every time.
