Hello everyone, As some of you may know we maintain a list of all the changes for an alpha on the wiki. The page for Alpha 26 is this one. You can also find all the information you need to update your mod here. Unfortunately we sometimes forget to update it and some commits go missing. Would anyone be so kind as to backlog from r25861 and update the page if needed? This page is really useful to write the release announcement. Thanks in advance

I'm translating 0 A.D to Indonesian and I found this Water Weeding technology. The description is "Grow water weeds to to supply rice plants with (sic.) nutricients." Can I get a context on what species is this water weed? And if it is actually giving nutrients to rice plants? I'm Indonesian where rice is our staple food. As far as I know there is no weed that supply rice plants with nutrients (weeds are robbing rice's nutrients, if any). There are some that could be planted side by side with rice, but it's for land optimization, not to improve the rice's nutrients.1 point

Hi guys, here is a picture of the Empires at War, Rise of Rome I made , using the 0 AD Scenario Editor...I have been working over a year on it, and posted some pictures of how is looking, for you guys to see, and I think is finally done, after more than a year making it... I really would like to share it with you guys, but I don't know how to upload , so any help from any of you that know how to do it is welcome...The map is Gigantic, and It represents Southern Europe and the Mediterranean Sea, the map and the factions can be modified to your own taste as you like. The scenario I made for this map is set for 4 players, Rome, Carthage, The Gauls, and the Seleucid Empire. You can play any of them or set them as AL players as you like. I make the map to look as close as possible to the real Geographical shape of Southern Europe, The Mediterranean sea, Northern Africa and the region of Palestine and the Anatolia peninsula, and the map is packed with gaia factions that will attack and defend their small buffer states from all All main players including the AL bot. So as you move across the map expanding your empire you will also encounter Sasanids, Gauls and Germanic tribes, Greeks, Spartans, Macedonians, Iberians, Britons , Ptolemaics , Desert Pirates and mercenaries. The map have cities and ports that represent real cities and towns from that age that need to be capture or destroy for their strategic value and a lot of resources for all player to capture and keep expanding. You can set this map as you like...I usually play with the Roman Republic...so that's why I call it Rise of Rome, but you all can play and set the scenario as you like, Hope you guys enjoy it , and if possible, make it better than what I did...I am pretty sure many of you will, and I see forward to that. I just need advice on how to upload here for you guys to play and get it tested, and fix it from any errors if you find any, and make it better... May the Only true God be always by our side... ....You can write me to my gmail account. charliechill17pr@gmail.com. Thank you all for your time and attention.

The current game shows that attempts to completely replace dedicated laborers with citizen soldiers were unsuccessful, and the original intent was to integrate civilians and soldiers into citizen soldiers, moving from two units to one. But what about the results now? Now there are women who farm, civic infantry who log wood, mine metal and stone, civic cavalry who hunt, mercenary infantry who can build buildings but can't gather resources, mercenary cavalry and champions who can 't gather resources or build buildings.1 point
-
Both sexes should be workers not more women(only). Laborers. CS (citizen Soldier) must have little role as economic , help to worker to work but only a little. cavalry should be same.1 point
-
But actually if you can build granary in neutral area, you don't need cavalry to have meat gathering function. In my opinion, because civilians are inconvenient to hunt -> need cavalry as fast meat gatherers -> cavalry needs to be trained in P1 -> need to consider the strength of cavalry in P1. It's not a strategy, it's just creating more problems that wouldn't have arisen in order to solve some small problems, making the whole mechanism more complex and difficult to balance.1 point
-
I also prefer AoE3, which has a lot of interesting mods despite its imperfections. Also I think Microsoft is really lazy, they have time to make more DLC for AoE2, but they don't have time to give each nation's soldiers a look that is more in line with the historical display, this is partly because AoE2 is not a 3D game, making A moving soldier model is more troublesome than making a building model, but this does not exist in AoE3, you just need to import a 3D model.1 point
-
I personally much prefer AOE3 over 2, mainly because 2 is really chaotic and the isometric view is horrible imo. The combat feels much nicer in 3 aswell. But yes, it was a small ripple compared to AOE2.1 point
-
btw Did AoE3 have any impact at all? I'm barely aware it exists, because there's AoE4 and bc it's the new shtuff there's talk about it. But if I'm not mistaken 2 is still much more a thing than 3.1 point
-
I have always said that capturing should be optional. No main feature. As you said, in peace, or quiet hen the zone of combat is clear.1 point
-
True, I had forgotten that. Well how about the Senate house for Rome then? And other factions too if they happen to have a building of sorts for such things1 point
-
I'm not saying they are innovative but they inspire to improve what we already have. In the end, we are looking for more of the same, but with newer improvements.1 point
-
Because even if there is no travel distance between granary and prey, cavalry gather it faster than women or infantry. You can also improve hunting efficiency by attacking from farther away so that the prey flee toward the farmstead.1 point

This is one very nice thing about Selucids and Ptolomies, you can immediately have a hero to lead your forces to battle, whats more they have an elephant hero that can level a civic center by itself if properly protected. Every other civ has to build a silly fort which costs a lot and takes an age. At least the Spartans, Athenians and Gauls have an easier time of things with unique buildings, I think Mauryas as well. But the others are stuck building forts1 point

Do these issues occur also when running the official Mac version using Rosetta, or are they specific to the ARM build?1 point

Personally, I think it would make the most sense to have civilians fight enemies and animals by throwing stones. In a panic, rocks will almost always be available immediately at hand. For hunting, one would have a chance to go and get a bow and arrows before you set out, but when ambushed by raiders you would have to use the tools on and near your person. Getting in to hand to hand combat with an aggressor is also extremely scary (and dangerous), so a non-militarized populous will prefer to deal with threats at range... which against an enemy without ranged armament is the objectively correct way to handle the situation if you want to live. Lastly, perverse as it seems, I think perception that a thrown stone is sub-lethal compared to dedicated ordinance like an arrow or javelin is actually a huge advantage in getting untrained people to overcome their cognitive aversion to killing. If it takes multiple stones to kill someone, you can always deny that you were responsible for delivering the killing blow. (Maybe this is why stoning is a historically popular form of execution.)1 point

The price is that players who are not used to the A23 will gradually abandon the game. I started recommending 0AD to Chinese RTS players 4 years ago, and it was during this process that I began to absorb their opinions to make the Mirror mod. If the alpha cannot be changed in the future, then I will implement it in the module. This at least has another option for some players.1 point

Hi, please state your OS and actually attach the crashlog.txt and crashlog.dmp files. Here's how to locate them: https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/GameDataPaths You can also check https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/FAQ Two classics: 1.

Hi Lion, What about Adding the Rise of Rome campaign map...I will be posting the campaign soon for everyone to play it. You can play the campaign on solo mode as The Roman Republic, or modified the settings for up to 8 players. The map can also be modified to fit everyone personal taste and be use for many other scenarios, like the Roman Civil war or whatever pop into your mind. You can add other mods to it as well to make new scenarios base on many Historical situations in Europe, the Mediterranean, the Middle East and North Africa. Creativity has no limits for the creative mind.

Phase 0 would be peasants and poorly trained militias. similar to classic AoE. The first phase would be found(settle) a village. The requirement would be 1000 food. It would be like War Selection.1 point

Aha that’s got me more interested. If the generic civ starts with skirmishers and spear men in p0, does the civ have those in p1 too or can they have their original starting units? Also is p0 a valid way to describe this? Or do you imagine this in p1 as it currently exists? I would be fine with this as long as those “regional civilization” bonuses are not something more deciding than the overall civ and team bonuses. I would dislike it if for example all the African civs became boom, all the Greeks became rush, all asian civ become turtle. I think these bonuses should be important in p0 while the civs are grouped like this, but wear off or go away in future phases. Cheaper palisades in p0 could be a good example of a bonus for a regional group that does not influence late-game civs distinction too much.1 point
-
It can be that way too, instead of having 3 generic civilizations at the beginning, we can start with Greeks and then choose which Greek civilization we want to expand.1 point

yeah. it's pointless to have more details on the design documents, ifthey're not going to be used anyway. I recon that some solutions that avoid micro may be bad for other reasons, but it's against the doc to argue that micro should be empowered for its own sake, and still people sometimes argue exactly that, and noone ever cares to bring up the design docs.1 point

It is generally believed that the traction trebuchet originated in China. We call it "礮Pao". This is the simplest but most effective weapon that uses the principle of leverage. We used it to drop bombs from the 12th to the 15th century.1 point

@Philip the Swaggerless Yeah, you're right there. Not having to build something, and instead of spending you're gathering resources, that's definitely an advantage.1 point

Hi, this is my first forum post, I've created a small map for personal use. I made it in a few days, and it's not the best. Forgive me, I'm still learning the ropes. Looking for feedback! Without further ado, I present my first half-decent, horribly unbalanced map, the Battle of Iapetra, downloadable below. Screenshots will hopefully be added soon. I hope you enjoy, and apologies for the inaccurate name! city_siege.pmpcity_siege.xml

@user1 I regret to have to make this report but this player named FUBAR did go a bit too far. He suddenly left a rated 1v1 game hosted by himself without resigning soon after I destroyed one of his CC, even though he had 2 and most of his infrastructure were intact. He began to talk rudely since I reached town phase, calling me names like 'smurf' and 'bullshit'. Even after the end of the game, he called me '@#$%' publicly in the lobby before leaving. I have both the replays and a screenshot. Had the game continued, I would likely have won. Therefore I think I deserve some rating increase, considering that many people have told me that I am underrated. My username: Roshan9 Offender: FUBAR 2022-01-02_0002.zip

That's definitely the case of mauryan Maiden Guards. That units (champions!) don't absolutely make sense and I think should be reviewed. Another big problem (in my opinion) is about heroes. Boudica and Cleopatra have a insane and totally unrealistic damage attack and amount of HP.1 point

Hey guys. My mod was never intended to be woke, progressive, or to "right historical wrongs," or to reduce female representation, remove/promote misogyny/misandry, or anything pro/con politically or socially. I just felt it made more sense to have male and female variants of civilian citizens, aka "villagers." That's pretty much the extent. I think it also just looks cooler to have male and female villagers working side-by-side.1 point
-
This has gone a bit too far. 1. 'Female citizens' in 0ad are UnitAI + template.xml + actor.xml. They have nothing to do with real women whatsoever. So there is no sexism involved since we are dealing with purely AIs. 2. If you make 'male gatherers' , then someone could ask for 'female soldiers'. But if you implement that, you see women killed on the battlefield, then they will protest because women's rights have been violated... So these people will never be satisfied... 3. Women rush can be an effective strategy to delay your opponent. I don't see why the creator of the thread just sprays in a random criticism and never returned to check out the the mod. They have not returned since November 2020... No other female players have had this complaint, nor are the interested in installing extra mods to make the AIs more politically correct... This led me to suspect that whether this Crea is trolling...1 point

Recently I watched a historical video which says that the pop-culture siege towers (which are used to capture walls) are rather wrong. In reality, the siege towers where used to shoot at the defenders (and to destroy gates / walls / buildings) So they should be fine.1 point
-
I'm wondering if it is desirable for Siege Towers to do what they historically did: capturing walls? I think it makes more sense than to have it as arrow-shower vehicles like they are now. Due to infantry cannot capture walls, I think it would be interesting to have gates be captured by siege towers and letting infantry to enter the gates as an alternative of ramming the gates. Speaking of gates, I think it is weird that siege towers can pass through the gates, considering its height. Perhaps we can limit passable units based on footprint height as well?1 point

Hello! I'm not sure if this belongs here, but would you find addition of climate catastrophes (flooding, storm, earth quake, volcanic eruption) interesting and feasible to add?1 point

Over the last alphas, I think there was increasingly less offers by AI-enemies to become neutral or even allied; not that I'd much inclined to accept it. I'd still like some ~matrix to be available in-game to see what the relations are (it gets announced anyway, but I don't necessarily remember it).1 point
-
We can also determine it based on number of games won, ratio of games won, etc. Winning games and high KD ratio increase the xp of a player and titles are given based on do. This separates pros from nubs so that nubs don't get abused and pros can enjoy exhilarating matches.1 point

Just played around for 20mins, seems to work as intended. Tested citizen production via CC and house. I only noticed that the production of male vs female is not always equal. Sometimes a batch of 6 is only male/ female, other times it works as intended. It seems random. iberians.mp4 An then there is this: Also can you change the accent color e.g. blue? PS: Just noticed that the selection via 'Skirmish' --> 'New Maps' now only shows 'Atlas Valley', the tag for new maps has been removed with [24939] and [25007]. I guess you used some SVN version between theses changesets to create this mod.
