Link to mod, screenie/description of how it is supposed to work, how to reproduce it (ie. '.give bla').

Savefile's gone, know somewhere else I could put it?

did you try the latest SVN?, i think thats already fixed

it was caused by a S3O without a texture 2.

Or a black alpha channel in the second texture. The infantry in GINTA is affected since i doesn't have a proper second texture yet.

I love the new range ring on stationary build units, but is there any way to make it show up again after it's been built so you can figure out what's in range when you're building new stuff or setting up queues of stuff for it to assist?

Hold Shift with your cursor over the builder.

Ahh, I couldn't figure it out but I figured there had to be a way. I tried hitting shift when I had it selected, I didn't think to mouse over it while holding shift. Thanks!

Hi, I just got a very recent build from a post somewhere around here. Anyway, great work, I love the new highlighting method for buildpics in particular.

One problem I noticed with the interface improvements though, was that if you maximize the minimap, its minimize button is covered by the resource bar.

Maybe switch the "restore original size" square with the "move" square? When it's maximized, I don't think you can move it anyway (and why would you want to?)

unknown-files.net is good.

Not if you want to keep it private, but its fixed now anyway, apparently.

So, you have something to hide...

Only his unibrow.

Did someone change air transport behavior or something...? In a previous Spring version, I could airlift battleships if I had a sufficiently powerful lifting unit... now I've tried to do this in my .73 build and it doesn't work. Maybe the change was made to boats? I can't pick up any boats at all, not even skeeters.

Just something I'm tinkering with.

To duplicate:

Load XTA on any water map.

.cheat
.give armbats

tell it to attack an arbitrary point near the edge of its range. Now watch it do the polka.

Boat spins back and forth in place. Works fine otherwise. Affects AA a hundred times worse since most boats have more than one turret, and only boats with more than one turret are affected.

Probably happens with ANYTHING that has more than one gun, just isn't noticable since they aren't as far apart as the average boat's guns are.

The ships appears to aim the target together with the turrets, and also the
patch was modified.They not follow a right route - that means the straight movement as possible between two points (as in previous version 0.71b), but do some zig-zags following exactly the underwater terrain profile.
Note that Ive utilized old movement classes and mindepths to test it.
See a GIF movie to show the gun dance....
