Hmm, what spam? Just in infolog?

[REVENGE]

So for No Draw mode, is the last com immune to another last com's comblast, or is it immune to all comblasts?

I got a fps problem.

1)At the start of the game, i used to have about 70 fps (athlon 3000, ati 9800, all setting at minimum).
2) With new version i have 2fps at start, even in small maps.
3)I tought it was a widget problem so i desactive them all -> no change -> still 2fps. I cannot play BA anymore.

My question is : who wants to play Suprem Annihilation ? Supreme Legacy ?

[TheFatController]

So if you open BA7.00 you get normal FPS and BA7.01 you get 2fps correct?

I haven't really changed anything that should cause this, can you give more info please ie map/mod options and how you started spring.

Thanks

That was correct : on anymap and ... BA mods after checking...
solved by erasing ~/LuaUI/config/BA

Marauders seem to have problems shooting uphill - I saw a few of them just hitting the rocks in front of them.

[el_matarife]

Should you sticky the latest BA and BA Chicken threads? It seems like it would make this subforum easier to use.

[Wombat]

u can share stuff to spectating ex-player and game doesnt autoquit when there is no players left in one of the teams... just so u know ;]

any chance of increasing slope tolerance of solars slightly? atm its feeble enough to make finding spots to build them across the map annoying

Agreed. If you get one of the "ramp" starting positions in DSD it's difficult to build solars.

[Gota]

I think since dsd is a rectangle Solars should be as well.

[Nixa]

This is true, clearly BA needs to be balanced for DSD!!! Wait no, balanced for DSD and regrets play style - if you did this you wouldn't ever have to worry about balance issues ever again and isn't that the goal of a perfect mod?

[Auswaschbar]

I dislike the new anti-combomb rules. Imho its stupid and unintuitive.

[Pxtl]

Honestly, with all the fighting over commcheese and modoptions and whatnot, I'd rather that BA just leave the comm as is and offer a CA-style (no-D-gun, cheap wreck, no boom) comm as a modoption and give up on more elaborate tweaks.

They make perfect sense to me, isnt that how its been always played in practice?

[YokoZar]

Has the flakker received a buff since 6.85? I was looking at modinfo and it seems like then the flakker did about 4/3 the damage of the mobile flakker (phalanx) but cost twice as much. Seems like it should be much cheaper, especially the flakker NS.

Possible bug: the Resurrection sub and the con sub aren't in the sub armor class
