! removed isShield. Use weaponType="Shield" instead!

That would cause an error. I think you need to write weaponType=="Shield"

Thanks to everyone! Spring is important part of my lifestyle so I am very happy to see such a great news!

- units that are mutually forbidden from pushing each other will no longer get stuck blocking the other party

OMG! YES! I will enjoy testing this tonight!

I guess it means in weapondefs, where = is correct.

No, this is the input side.

Ok this is probably noob question and I m curious, but nobody bothers to answer it.

Why static linux version uses such high libc version? (GLIBC_2.15)
I m running debian testing(and debian stable probably has even lower version) and it has 2.13, so I have to compile spring just as usual. Wasnt it supposed to be unzip and go?

I mean real rolling release distros will have new spring packaged and ready much faster than rock stable like debian anyway. And it would be good idea to use a bit older version?

@wolas:

yep it is/was. thx for reporting this, i'll downgrade it on the buildslave soon... (at least the 32 bit version)

see http://springrts.com/mantis/view.php?id=3464

Actually it is _only_ debian with an ancient glibc. Ubuntu and Fedora (and ofc all rolling distros), have glibc >= 2.15.

But I guess it doesn't hurt using an older version... just like with windows builds that must support XP...

[wolas]

Dansan not everybody likes doing little dance every 6 months and fix things which worked just fine and I m not even talking about bugery like arch linux.

[dansan]

hehe - sorry - couldn't stop myself from doing a little fun on debian. it's totally fine for me

[cranphin]

Java AI interface and NullOOJavaAI went missing in the build, but should be fixed now: http://springrts.com/mantis/view.php?id=3469
Thanks ^_^

Tested it, seems to work, whee :)
Small issue, but it might be from before 0.92:

Under XP : unable to sea the UI in game. Nothing displayed. I can select the com and move it but even the selection box is not there.

edit : sorry, already reported http://springrts.com/mantis/view.php?id=3456

I use Debian Testing, which is a rolling release. As is Debian Unstable. They both have 2.13. Experimental has 2.17. Fedora got 2.15 in the last quarter of last year.

odd i had no ui until I ran settings via spring lobby.
infolog

after running settings via spring lobby the issue was resolved. No idea what the deal was but hey, it's working now

[abma]

smoth, you should know how to use some paste service... please remove infolog.txt from your post.

[smoth]

but then you don't get the wonderful scroll hell I get when I read infologs ... (j/k)

no prob, edited post.
