Re: What is CA, and how to get it
There is a whole other stickied thread for that.
Re: What is CA, and how to get it
Very nice, there should be one of these for each game/mod.

Outdated.4. Click 'Add bot...' and chose one of the 'Chicken' options from the AI drop down list to play Chicken Defense, or add a bot such as [http://spring.jobjol.nl/show_file.php?id=890 RAI].
Also please add info how to DIRECTLY download latest TEST version.

Re: What is CA, and how to get it
This is easy to update. Basically the user needs to download the spring installer, launch SD and join a game.
In the long run I would like a "compile game version" button in SD that takes the relevant data from the pool and creates a self contained sd7. But this is not vital so it is a long term desire.
On windows:Also please add info how to DIRECTLY download latest TEST version.
- Download and install tortise svn http://tortoisesvn.net/downloads
- Create a folder ca.sdd in spring/mods
- Right click on the folder, do tortise svn checkout on location 'svn://svn.caspring.org/trunk/mods/ca'. (mods/1fac for 1fac)

Why SVN speed so slow? Only ~15 KB/sec. May be its time to update snapshots folder with some latest releases?

I updated the forum title, the user group and your user titles.

Woohoo! It finally happened!Neddie wrote:I updated the forum title, the user group and your user titles.
I wanted to ask you about this (in February, was it?), but you were on vacation/hiatus at the time. Instead, I asked Aegis, who told me to ask Licho, who told me he couldn't change forum titles.
