Anglo-Saxon names, that is, American and British names, or names from former British colonies.

Hi, I’ve accessed my old replays and I’m searching for a specific one that I should have. However, since it’s from A23 in 2022, I’m unable to watch it on A27. Is there any way of watching without installing a23?

Excuse me

I don't mean the flatpak from flathub that'll be up-to-date, but the installed version of the flatpak software (the software you install to run flatpaks) may be out of date or the system drivers may be

The five main ways to detect a bot: #1: They highlight proper nouns to seemingly make their point. #2: They post something barely, if not completely unrelated to the topic. How do you make coffee? With MagiCoff! #3: They have names like real people, like this, JasonHawken28. No one else has a name that makes sense without explanation. #4: They always have a link to their website, for proper advertising. #5: They post once, then disappear forever, never to be seen again…

No, for real, it’s in there. If you search ‘dragon’ in the art folder, you will see a dragon.dae file and a dragon.xml file. Then, in the Plane.xml file in the simulation folder, just change the actor path from units/global/dragon.xml to fauna/dragon.xml. Try it!

Oh, I never thought of hunting down a newer version of the FlatPak, I just thought that PureOS was linking me directly to the newest version. Thanks! I’ll try that and get back to y’all.

Those stones look like they're from mining.They look very bright. Shouldn't they have mold and dampness?

nice work, I have a completed a kurgan wonder in the meantime, that I can share with you soon

spawning this would make a nice easter egg at the end of a game with the condition to capture all 7 relics.

Now this is my motivation to install PureOS , in a VM

Again, a single distro may pitch in, but they're dealing with things like Pipewire, Xorg, Wayland, Mesa, a desktop environment, and much more they don't really have time to dedicate someone to help update a little old game, and the distros that are based on stability (like debian stable) won't even consider it because it's not their goal. I was gonna suggest that... It is kinda mean, but there is such a thing as a not very good Linux distro, by virtue that it's not really updated. he does, but he gets errors when using it. I wonder if it's because of how old PureOS's flatpak probably is.

I heard upper case [C] captures faster. And don't forget to say: Wololo!

This did not happen much with armies moving in formation like the phalanx, but in the game it does happen . Completely agree. I think this should be the goal

From what Brett Devereaux writes, this doesn't happen historically (except in very rare occasions); that's a modern misconception. Anyway archers should in some situations be able to shoot over their melee comrades, probably not (or with the risk of friendly fire) on the first rank of enemy soldiers engaged in melee, but on the rear ranks. And of course also on the first rank while they charge and are not already engaged in melee. Also if we want to have ancient battles and not napoleonian ones with swords and arrows, we probably should take kiting into account : yes, missiles can shoot quite far, but without any discernible impact on armored troops. Only at close range (where an enemy charge can wreak havoc to them too) can they be actually effective. The more armored the enemy is, the closest the range of effectiveness. That would make for very interesting tactical decisions, and make melee troops the kings of battles, as it was historically (while still allowing missile-heavy tactics like the Persians used, but only if done well, and prone to awful failures if done badly, as the Persians learned at Marathon and Plateia, or against the 10 000).

Indeed, but we also would need better control of our troops. Putting your archers to the side to shoot at reinforcements and then having them friendly firing at your troops because the AI decided it wanted to shoot at the melee would be very frustrating.

Here this current topic is in the section "Delenda Est". Are you asking for a dedicated topic for this mod or for another mod?

Was it? Not just a harmless weird joke?

We could trick it like Lordgood did. Basically inside the model you'd hide the fire. And using two bones to stretch it you could do something yeah. For now though, it does nothing. I think it was heavy sarcasm.

Do you know how to install through a flatpak?

There are distributions that have gaming as a core part. Then there are those that are just bleeding edge for being bleeding edge. Rolling distributions are also more likely to have the lasted versions around. On the other hand if it's a distribution meant to provide a solid and stable base to work of from then it usually takes time for versions to tickle down. Based on some Ubuntu telemetry 0ad has probably some 300'000+ installs on Linux. Single player don't need the latest version, certainly not zero day bumps. There is also the option to build from source. While that may sound daunting most long term linux users (or open source user on other platforms) will start doing it at some point and realize it's not harder then learning to drive a bicycle. That will allow you to use a fix to one of your issues right after it got committed without having to wait for a release (every day is release day ). Also instead of the some 20'000 packages your distro offers you have the whole world of open source software at your tip. That said, there is a Flatpack for 0ad and an AppImage will be provided for the next release as well.

This is the same issue:

According to https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/PureOS In my opinion, it's time to choose something else. This is what the 0ad versions supported by Linux distributions look like. https://repology.org/project/0ad/versions I suggest stable Debian 13.1 Trixie: https://cdimage.debian.org/cdimage/release/13.1.0/amd64/iso-dvd/ https://packages.debian.org/trixie-backports/0ad Regards.
