Maximum Annihilation V1.0

[Wasp]

What I saw was interesting, and am somewhat hopeful about final results of this. During early game, with nothing going on, there was practically zero difference between this and previous revisions, but during heavy gameplay events, this seems to have improved performance by a bit, and performance feels smoother, with fewer giant slowdowns occuring.

Uhhh, wtf?

Testing 5609. Difficult to do complete comparisons, due to SpringSP currently failing to launch the game (some sort of parsing error in script.txt generated by SpringSP, game runs fine when run directly).

- adv. wind generator and light fusion need to be smaller

Well as I already said some while ago the size of the Adv. Wind Generator is what it's all about. It's way more efficent than the normal version and has its downside in its size. Concerning the Light Fusions: Well as they have about the same size as the T3 Fusions I don't think they are too big...

- water version of plasma shield and nano would be useful

Well I'll think about the nanos but didn't really like the idea of floating shields yet...

- nuclear mine is missing

Well imo a nuclear mine would have to be T3 where mines did get old already. I also think they would be rather useless as building them near you defences is no option and at some distance in front of them too dangerous. But you might enjoy using Skuttles for having some Mini-Nuke mines when deploying them...

- buildicons : nice work

Thanks!

ps : airmail unit is my favorite, did you make it ?

Yes I did...

At this point I also want to give a little status report:
Version 1.1 did have some nice progress and the bugfixing (at least those I know of) is already completed. I now want to bring two new units ingame before releasing. So expect it somewhen this weekend. Unfortunately you won't see any new T3 Sea stuff yet...

[BlueTemplar]

Yes the buildicons are really great (and IIRC their placement too) compared to CA for instance where I recently lost a game because I built a scanner instead of a rocket vehicle...

Yes, the advanced wind is really huge... maybe you could make it a little bit smaller without reducing the space it takes on the ground - like a baseplate or something.
