These faces are probably on the opposite side. Just change them to the correct side (they should have the blue face in the face orientation).2 points

Might be better to use github wiki feature to start documenting stuff. At least everything is focused on this thread and if you extract the important stuff in the form of issues and wiki entries it might make it easier.2 points

yes I think @Lopess is correct, probably a face has the wrong orientation (The engine only renders one side of a face). See here how to enable this view mode:1 point

borg- and valihrant would only be allowed to play with each other... feldfeld can only play against chrstgtr... What if you are underated and the player who are +/-100 points refuse to play against you. In many cases, it seems that would simply prevent some players from playing rated games at all.1 point

@Yekaterina ... the reason I started reusing Akazid (older than Dizaka) is because of nonstop gank hits IG. I know when I play there's a 60% chance of getting rushed. If I'm Mauryas or Carthage 90% of rush and 70% of a double gank. I can guarantee like clockwork even which players will scout map and rush me. For some games it is justifiable (b/c I'm Carthage). I've started to now just play unconventional civs (Seleucids, Kushites, Macedonians) as they keep ganks off me. Additionally, bc of ganking, I'd be great if fog of war could hide terrain inflence, civ anonimity until explored, and player name could be hidden for matches.1 point

Not helpful. I like this a lot. The existing temple could be some kind of capturable map object.1 point

Trinitrophenol was me, and trinitrophenol is also known as picric acid, an explosive substance. I was using a comparison between my genuine account and smurf account to illustrate a point. Reyhan is also me. If you saw Sephine in the lobby, that is me as well. I knew posting this thread will get me into trouble so I used it on a smurf forum account. @Silier I apologise for whatever I said that got Reyhan a warning point. But both accounts belong to me, no need to ban this one as well. The list of malpractices in the lobby goes on: some people preach political ideologies and fake news in the lobby. That shouldn't be allowed neither. Some players have usernames of controversial political figures. Others join random games and nub because they are too busy preaching their fake news about some genocide that never happened. When players gather in a game, they want to have a good time fighting units, they don't want to listen to political nonsense or fake news. If they want to discuss these, use private chat or Mumble or Discord.1 point

Hello, I have been playing for a few years and yet I am not so frustrated. Of course there are some games that are not fun but it's the RTS playstyle that wants that. I always have fun. The ddos I don't know if 0AD can do anything about it but many orthers videos games are affected. 1) I don't know if you take the measure of what you are offering. Making every game count for rank would be counterproductive, people would play games less for fun. There would therefore be fewer games in progress, this could gradually lead to an empty lobby and therefore a dead game in 2 years. I carricature but you get the idea. The scoring system is open to criticism but it is not intended to be infallible, it is just an indicator (up to the players to use it as they want, to trust it or not. It has the merit of creating a small little competitiveness and a ranking sympathetic to the ego of the people). Most of the known hosts themselves estimate the level of the players to balance the games. sometimes it's done well sometimes not, it's impossible to do it all the time. I assume that if the gap is not too large all games can be won. 2) Then most of the smurfs accounts do not pose any problem, but if they are done with an aim to piss off or create bad for others it is a shame. For example, I have 4 accounts, 2 of which are shared with my brother and a friend, we have the same level overall and I always announce my average rating when I do a 1 vs 1 so as not to trap the person by stealing his points. Why am I doing this? No idea, I find it funny, it's less boring to always have the same nickname, people expect less of your strategies or a bunch of other childish reasons lol. It could be interesting to see the date of creation of the account to avoid old players without rating to be considered as smurfs. When I'm on a different account I feel like I'm in a different vibe too. don't ban please1 point

whith this example, @Reyhan, you showed perfectly why it's not fun to have nubs on your team, and why many hosts only accept players of their level. even teams means more fun. also, if this bullying is an effective strategy, than I don't think it can be blamed. it's a coordinated assault, and it makes a lot of sense in TGs. All in all, I'd say you are painting things a lot darker than they are, and many of these issues are simply caused by 0AD having a small playerbase, and it having a public lobby, with a public chat. there's good to it, and bad. of course it is true that smurf accounts should be limited somehow, and that TG should have a rating system, both these things have quite some consensus. (but TG rating should not consider in game scores though, this too has been discussed). I also think that if the game also had a quick matchup system for 1v1, this would make matters simpler, and be more inviting to many new players.1 point

We don't need dozens of pseudo features possibly all with own options in vanilla. Map creators already have the tools necessary to do whatever they please. Where pyrogenesis is lacking is ease of sharing such content. Maybe support download from host, maybe support fetching from github repo will do. If you want exciting content for single player start creating campaigns!1 point
