Spring RTS Engine

i can test waves in high seting but i see a video:
nuc in water

it seems waves are tiny and look as ground move under blast(+self-restore after)
sames that makes boats

if increasing or reducing gravity afect waves size?
if not i sugest to request it ...

is waves are only a ground type?
then changing hardness will afect waves size?

Waves are purely graphical.

smoke too
i suggest smoke and waves must be related to gravity

Smoke must collect under Energyshields and build Smokescreens and Smogclouds.

and lag clouds

How about affecting waves by the maps wind settings instead?

water energy generator product must be afected by blasted waves and winded waves

you overestimate the complexity of the spring engine. Also this feature would be kind of useless.
Oh True one. All Hail you.

Considering less than half of the players of spring can handle waves and half that again can probalby handle them well this would be a unlikely feature. Neat, but unlikely.

It's what the original game (TA) used. Why not implement it here? You could have a number of things running off this. The wind direction could also change.

Also, direction of the geo. Burning wrecks, smoke etc... So much to be done. It could be modelled very simply as well.

taspring is beta now
half people can handle now
when game will end (3years later?)minority cannot handle waves

Emmanuel has spoken, the game shall be abadonned in three years. A prophecy has been made.

(ps: it's not only the performance but also the lag that this will cause, for a relativly low positive influx on the game mechanics, if any)

yes
because in tree year the game will ended
and the fps/rts balance request a real 3d engine
better than homeworld...

You have a good point there actually, at the moment rts engines are too limited by what they cannot do. This is why people are making rts mods for half life 2 for instance.
On the other hand recent RTS games have pretty much all been crap too so it comes as no surprise that they lack inventiveness.

can you report some rts (mod or not)feature missing in taspring ?
some important feature (not only visual but) for gameplay
i test halflife2 and it was always the samething less than a ducknukmen !!!
