Re: MO_PreventCombomb possible rework

- intransparent to the player (I also think a team should not have godlike knowledge about enemy com count) I'm hoping it's relevant to bring up things like nuke and liche damages which are explicitely reduced for coms to make them easier to kill, I think it's a similar enough situation that's just...

Re: MacOS SpringRTS OSX Build

IIRC there's a mac build slave available already. Yes, TurBoss set one up But it doesn't have anything compilable to compile because 104.0 no friends with mac. Actually, Spring 104.0 compiles quite well, you just can't run it because it fails to create an OpenGL compatability context. I don't know ...

I wouldn't think that it's that simple, it's near impossible for two commanders to die in exactly the same frame. As far as the game is concerned, one always has to die first.

Adolf, people would be more likely to respect your decisions if you showed your level head in refusing to insult them back, maybe this would help somewhat and people would stop being upset with you?

Re: So what is the plan for MAC users?

Re: No commanders spawning

There should be a provision to specify compatible engine versions within the mod specification. That way, players can at least be warned if they are running an incompatible / untested combination. I know this exists in PA, I thought it existed in BA aswell? Maybe there's an error with it in 9.46? I...
