The latter is part of the VisibleClasses list of the Identity component, which is split by whitespace, so there is no way for the latter (without some code changes that seem to be worth it, unless someone is bored) to have a space. This limitation doesn't extend to translations so you can just translate it to be the same.

Now, hear me out. I am an avid fan of city-builders and tend to build houses past my population limit for the aesthetic alone. I would also like to build up areas of the map that are otherwise barren of natural resources, wall them up, make them look pretty. This is currently useless, except giving your population limit the ability to take some housing losses. It seems a shame for city builder civilizations to build 30 houses and be done with them, less with the peristyle tech. Then I thought, taxes! all these citizens sitting pretty in their homes while I micromanage trade routes for territory expansion, why don't they help out? This could have a number of benefits and implementations, Carthage, the colonial city building civ who relied so heavily on mercenaries, can actually put out a decent stream of mercenary units with taxed housing. Seleucids and Ptolemies could build cities to support its metal-heavy unit rosters. Grabbing land actually means something again, and the more territory controlled the more ferocious the battles will be when the wealth pours in, instead of locking into stalemate, waiting for the other player to falter. I dunno, thoughts?

Does anyone by chance has replayes with certain mods enabled? (I'm especially interested in replays from RotE or Millennium A.D. to see how the civs play and if they need rebalancing)

I think it would be better if there was a dedicated campaign mode where there was taxes, and all of that city management stuff, then on the actual RTS map there should be the regular RTS functions. In other words it would be like the BFME 1 and BFME 2 campaign maps. Also, if you don't like the idea then maybe there should be a happiness system like in Stronghold 2. More taxes means less happiness, which in turn makes soldiers fight worse (because we can't have peasants leaving the castle in this game). The happiness is the rate in which soldiers fight. More happiness means that soldiers get stat bonuses and buffs.

I would be interested in an economic mod that plays a little more like Anno. With the resource agnostic mod in, we could even add a little complexity.

Unit costing 3 resource is a unneeded complication that better games have avoid. Also, keep in mind "taxes" in these time are not only paid in coin. In fact I would imagine to say that most tax paid in something other than coin.

Nope. The Thracian and Galatian mercenaries at Daphne would have been of good use in campaigns in the rough, hilly terrain. For example, the arms and equipment of the Thracian troops allowed the individual soldier greater mobility and freer action in hand-to-hand combat than a phalangite could adopt.[29]

I tried out the new Regicide gamemode and it can sometimes get really scary! When you forget where you put your hero and are being attacked it gets kinda scary! The new maps and gamemodes are awesome and definetly a great addition!

Right now I need people to test the changes above, next Saturday 26th and Sunday 27th I will organize an ffa match (random civ), so I can see what's unbalanced and how much the battlefield changes with these version. I think the games will be 5-6 PM UTC (6-7 Spain,Germany,France) (USA no idea). Please reply to this post so I can see how many we will be. Since I can't host, I'll need someone to do that, I'll see. If you don't know how to install the mod, please ask here or go to the first post, where I explained it: Feel free to comment on the changes, feedback will be appreciated to make updates on the mod. Ideas, complaints, etc. will be welcome. Thx

I think that the AI difficulty maybe should be saved like the persist match settings do

What about those officers helmets @Enrique officer_helmet.7z

A trickle expense would be annoying imo. This could be an opportunity to open up low but prevalent metal costs through unit rosters though

Now how cool is it that the stream is available afterwards?

We could also add an additionnal expenditure to compensate that new income: for example, military structures would have a maintenance cost, while civilian ones would produce taxes. That would force the player to keep developing its economy, even in phase 3 when most of its income come from trade.

@Enrique here are the files. sele_agema_helmet_2.7z

It's strange, as it seems the cpu detection detects you have a CPU with Hyper-Threading, although your cpu doesn't.

Have 3 capture anim variations, like the ones in DE. They play these capture animations when capturing. Building player color flashes back and forth as being captured. Can flash from player color to white and back (say, fades back and forth rapidly over about 1 or 2 seconds), or flash from player color to capturing player color (the one capturing it the most). Also, play capturing sound FX. 1-5 soldier have individual cheers and yells, 6-15 have a "small crowd" sfx, 16-30 have a "medium crowd sfx, and 31+ have a "large crowd" sfx.

While territorial taxation does sound like it would get the job done, it kind of works around my original point regarding city building. A house trickle would work great though

Some time ago I wrote a patch that altered the ResourceTrickle component to allow the option of limiting the trickle rate by the percentage of territory controlled by the player. Essentially, the more territory lay within a player's territory borders, the faster the trickle rate. I'm not suggesting that a territory-limited-trickle should be added to houses, but perhaps on a CC, market or palace... It was never committed, but for those interested, it can be found on trac: http://trac.wildfiregames.com/ticket/3321 (it's the second attachment, and might need rebasing)

I made a tiny mod for testing: https://github.com/AlexanderOlkhovskiy/0ad-taxes-mod It adds ResourceTrickle component to houses (initially with zero resources) and a city-phase 'taxes' technology (researchable in CC) which increases houses resource trickle to 1 metal/minute.

Interesting way (Taxation of ancient Greece), we could use a slider for balance between war buildings and economic buildings. And like it was in Greece: when a war with someone was started, you move the slider to war and usual building and units costs more, but war units cost less and faster to be produced.

Hey guys! I've been really busy these past months, but I bring some juicy updates! I've been slowly but steady progressing on the animations developement whenever I could. Here's a teaser with what is currently in store, and the current state of the new animations roadmap. Here's the status of the new units animations roadmap.
