Spring RTS Engine

From mapmod the techa was born. Now techa is big enought that techa mapmods get made. On official autohosts it seems !map command still allows to set the unwanted maps: !map geogreenfieldstecha x v1 * [BoS]Autohost * Map changed by asdf: GeoGreenFieldsTechA X v1 !maplink * [BoS]Autohost * Map link: ...

There are two infrastructure people: abma and Licho. Each with their own infrastructure. Both complain about being lonely. Then there are the different lobbies and its developers who can never agree on most simple things, like default chat channels or how to title some buttons. Who wants to work wit...

This is for the sand worm map. I can't think of any other way to use the native pathfinder to avoid rocks. Terrain can have different speedmodifiers for four types: tank, kbot, hover, ship You could pick one move-type and decide that this type is only used for worms. The "ship" type can n...

doYouEvenLift() function is not called anywhere

Stuff done in the def files or def's _post.lua file = the changes are applied to all units of that unittype Functions like Spring.SetUnitMaxHealth() = change is only applied to that one unit you can control metal, energy cost, and build time also on the fly?

hi
might be just change in engine. wait until game is updated.
(https://github.com/spring/spring/commit ... 29aec3L779 = the camTime parameter in SetCameraState is removed, so camera instantly changes position)

Since this forum was often either pro-split ("sign of a mature game!" etc) or ignored the situation I think this is relevant here too. Should there ever be a re-combination it would have to be prepared from both sides.

the past

both servers have less activity than ever.
what is the lower limit for playernumbers and acitivities?
what is the upper limit for waiting on zerok steam?

Hello. On https://springrts.com/wiki/Gamedev:UnitDefs is no way for the files in units\ folder to set the side of a unit. So there is no way to read it either. There is no methode that always works. What works with some mods: a) The side might be contained in the unit names: UnitDefs[unitDefID].name...

Spring.isValidUnit(unitID) will now complain if the passed argument is anything other than a number, previously you could pass it nil and it would behave nicely. the previous way seems better. If you going to depute this, then you going to have to put more meat into your argument, as I see no reaso...

https://springrts.com/wiki/FAQ:technical#Why_doesn.27t_the_spring_engine_use_all_my_cpu_cores.3F The FAQ question "Why doesn't the spring engine use all my cpu cores?" needs a better answer. Currently it is awkwardly written and does not answer the question in way that players can understa...

Why was this thread moved/split to "Game Development Tutorials & Resources"? The subforum that should be removed/closed because everything inside is outdated old / wrong / duplicate? Rename it "old stuff / trashcan" and unsticky it from Content Development already, instead of...

"Get stuff ingame" or "adding game assets" is broad and vague. It can mean anything from replacing one audio file to a completly new unit or map. So you look at https://springrts.com/wiki/Gamedev:Main or https://springrts.com/wiki/Gamedev:Structure and then decide from the headin...

One issue I find in the wiki is that there's no page telling you how to add a single unit(def) to the game. You pretty much should read most of the GameDev section to familiarize yourself enough to do it, as you definitely need to know: - unitdefs - scripts - movedefs - covols - how to add models &...

Marking changes as "New" or "Outdated" as several uses: 1) It shows readers & editors why this edit was done. (Sets it apart it from trolling and shows some thought when into edit) 2) If you stumble across something in a script/mod that is different to wiki it saves you time ...
