Unlocks "Scale Body Armor" No "." at all

WIP: Animations: IDLE 5 DEATH 1 WALK 2 RUN 3 FEEDING 1 Source diff: diff: Have 4 ref more.

There's a silly detail: should it say 'Unlocks "Scale Body Armor."' or 'Unlocks "Scale Body Armor".'? I feel the 2nd one, not only because I prefer British punctuation, but because I guess the "." is not included in the tech? And to end with ".", like the other points. I agree with visual elements, that's why when "somehow showing if it unlocks another tech, unit or building would be nice" was mentioned I wondered if a small icon instead of bullet points could be something to be considered. Yes, I totally see it would be gameplay breaking, only a mod could consider something like this right now, but things like keeping or killing sheep for either textiles or food would make things like Corrals more interesting. Also, it would come from many sources: cotton, hemp, flax flower, silkworms, shearing sheep, and animals for leather or fur. Water is interesting, lots of city-building implications with that, although maybe not necessarily as a main resource, but as connected structures and auras, since location matters a lot. Also, what is nice about the main resources is that they are like categories: there are many types of foods, wood, stones, metals (and textiles), but only one type of water (which I would cluster with foods). Combining all this, a system similar to Rise of Nations would be nice: to have lots of different resources, but all falling into these 4 (5) main categories, the difference of gathering one thing or the other being some (small for starters?) bonus (or unlocking special stuff, eventually). This could also make things like Markets more interesting.

WIP: Armature Redone. Easier to handle. armature name: bison_... please correct me if another quadruped has the same name cause will break the game.

Frankly, introducing textiles as an additional resource is good idea but you would need infrastructure to create that: at least specific fields that grow textile plants or corrals producing sheep, spinning mills and weaving mills. Adding new resource types remains a challenge as if would affect many apsects of game play. A while ago I started suggesting to add water as a resource as this could create particluar situations and game challenges in those desert oasis maps. see also and also a bit further down this discussion we go ntinot he subject of water as a resource and how it could look like in gameplay:

Feliz Páscoa a todos! - Happy Easter for all!

You updated the maps, but I didn't sign them. Each release has to be signed. Else it does that. I'd recommend against ticking the make release live when uploading a file.

What did you have for lunch? Also, happy Easter!

I mean we just want to keep playing all and see how they work, make sure we can get rid of bugs, continue to clean things up and streamline it

Ok, Thanks so much!

Ok, thanks! Is there a certain civ (for your mod) that needs to be tested?

I get all templates from 0ad/binaries/data/mods/public/simulation/templates at main - 0ad - Wildfire Games

Do you have any blank templates (or know where I could find them) for a new civ?

I started out with them

My channel: https://www.youtube.com/@strategynewbie You can find @AlexHerbert channel there too, just scroll down the page

you playing with the mod? You shouldn't be able to get "civilian" helots... that is interesting.

I don't know. But, you could check how is done in this mods: https://github.com/JustusAvramenko/delenda_est Or maybe @Emacz can help you with that =)

@wowgetoffyourcellphone I think the information is much better structured now. I also like that you added the large image. It’s a detail that, to me, adds a lot of “personality” (after all, it’s the only visual element representing the “object”). I understand that the bullet point follows a consistent logic, listing in an orderly way the elements the technology unlocks. However, personally, I would still prefer to remove at least the bold formatting from “Unlocks Scale Body Armor.” This way, what stands out more immediately would be the most important aspect of the technology: the military bonuses it provides. I also think placing the cost at the top is a good choice. And the increased line spacing greatly improves readability. Good job!

In Spartan, if I raise the alarm These don't go into my civic center. But when I train one, they go in; it looks like a different unit, that may have something to do with it: Also, is there a specific civ that needs to be tested more than others?

I can’t really tell you. I’ve never modded unit/civ templates. But if I were to do it, I think I’d start by looking at how a civ’s files are structured here: https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/src/branch/main/binaries/data/mods/public/simulation/templates Do you know if there is a guide to making a new civ?

That's cool stuff to add to my bookmarks I'm not really into modding units, but maybe this web can be useful for you too: https://docs.wildfiregames.com/templatesanalyzer/ Are there templates for the units and structures and other civ data for a new civ?

Happy Easter!
