Spring RTS Engine

Hi, anyone else here (you must be an Total Annihilation gamer or ex-gamer) notice that Spring runs about 10 or 15 percent slower than it should? I'd be all for setting the current 1.1 or 1.15 or so as the 1.0 speed in a future version.

I think you'd have to do that with the unit speeds... when you just up the refresh rates (+ and - keys) spring speeds up it's tickrate, and causes major lag for all the players who can't keep up with the back and forth data.

If you increase unit speed, the laser/missile speed become to low and will miss them.

I would prefer if the game were a bit quicker.
(iirc I've once made a post where I said I prefer playing with 1.5 speed)

just play with speed 1...in the mid'/late game u r always busy 'even' at speed 1!

I know, but I'm just suggesting a 10% increase. OTA players manage it

I think the problem is different - I think the maps are all much larger, and all the units are longer ranged, so that in the end the units seem to move painfully slowly.

and we're probaly more zoomed out. But still it feels a bit slower then OTA
