Spring RTS Engine

i'm using the minimal portable windows version to test this and sometimes it hangs when trying to start a single player game. But after i close it i can try again on the same game and map and it works.

Anyone else got this?

I get the feeling that parts of this thread are no longer relevant. http://springrts.com/mantis/view.php?id=4516#c13576 I just tested it again on spring_{develop}97.0.1-206-g8576ee8_minimal-portable and issue (3) is still happening. http://springrts.com/mantis/view.php?id=4516#c13577 added screensh...

I don't want a new tag just fix the aircraft trajectory shit so they don't fly into the target any more! Shit is retarded technically, (1), (2), (3), and (5) can be solved without new tags. on issue (4), having to use a fake weapon to get a relatively common behaviour does seem like something that ...

so how would i get my "airplane" with turrets to pass over its target, like a bomber would, instead of acting like a fighter and dive head first towards it? When i tried to make a unit like that a few years back, it did´t work at all. Would be nice, if one could simply use a unitdeftag to...

... (4) No, it's already clear from unitdef what is/isn't a bomber; don't duplicate info does isBomberAirUnit=true actually do what he described? Because if not, that would be a very nice thing to have. there is no such unitdef here . the point is not finding out if the unit is a bomber within the ...

this is about aircraft behaviour. Currently it has a few issues and stuff we should be able to control but are not, mostly related to movement. 1 --- make possible to set minimal attack distance for unit OR make possible to set primary weapon (for the same purpose) http://springrts.com/mantis/view.p...

Thanks. A new version is coming out in the next month or two with lots of changes: --- moving away from TA IP - remade most textures - changed the texturing units on all factions to make them consistent within each faction and different from other factions - replace ARM and CORE with AVEN and GEAR f...

Before finishing the loading process spring 96.0 crashes and shows an "access violation" popup on a specific map (flooded valley v2), but others work fine.

game is xta 9.74.

Seems to be on "Initializing Map Features" step.

infolog attached.

happens in xta 9.74 as well, not a game issue. But isn't metal factions very similar to xta? Just thought that if it is, then the two tests are not linearly independent... It isn't supposed to be rigorous testing, just thought i'd throw this around here to see if anyone else adds feedback. Tried ev...

i played vs AI on my game and it worked. when i press alt-b, GameController:Draw and the ShadowHandler:CreateShadows are shown taking up 99% cpu and 87% cpu respectively, even at the start of the game (doesn't seem to grow as the unit numbers increase). Is this normal? Why? i may be off, but maybe t...

that 4 legged walker thingy will shoot through the legs when trying to fire at short vehicles or lower ground.

for energy sources, RTGs seem promising http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Radioisotope_thermoelectric_generator radioactive nuclear waste can be used as a power source! - 238Pu emits 0.54kw/kg with a half-life of 87.7 years - 90Sr emits 0.46kw/kg with a half-life of 28.8 years - 210Po emits 140 Kw/kg (!!...

about performance i think it always uses 100% of one CPU core. 1 min after i start a spring game (idle commander on the cold place) on xta 9.74 (happens with my game as well) my cpu fan starts spinning fast and making noise. this happens with this test version as well as spring 96.0 when i use the d...

tested "97.0.1-20-gcd4602b (10. Jun 2014)" with metal factions v0.71 vs AI and it worked fine (40 min game). then i spawned all units with "/give all" and gave some orders and found that this bug is still alive: 0004228: hovering aircraft get "deactivated" mid air while...

thanks

the update 0.189 -> 0.193 worked.

when running springlobby 0.189, i'm prompted to update to 0.190, but the update fails.

What does assist mean? Same as guard? Would be nice if someone defined these once and for all. I take it that guard := stalk, because that's all what it seems to do. You cannot set a cannon to guard a unit, it doesn't even work with canGuard = true. In OTA that was possible. If the unit was under a...

the bug only affects some versions of openssl:

notAcancer, yes, funny. we should all get along etc. there was a bug in an evo game that didn't end properly: after the last building was sold, the game didn't end and there were lots of lua errors. attached infolog.txt (it seems very rare, i've played a few dozen of evo games and it's the first tim...
