Dear all, I've made a little Python program which extracts the chat history of players from the mainlog.html. This gives you a record of who said what during the game and in the lobby. Even if you were a player, you can see the spectator chat using this. All of the chat history, commands received and program outputs are contained within mainlog.html, but this file is very large and messy to read. This is why I made a program that is dedicated to extracting the chat part. The future improvements will be automatically matching the player ID to the names so that it's more intuitive to read; it would also be possible to see at exactly when each message was sent / received. To use the program, copy it to the same folder as your mainlog.html and run in console. An example output: The /allies marker means the chat was sent to the sender's allies. Similarly for /observers. Lobby chats and game setup chats will be recorded as well: Hope you like it! Heli

If the script can do this it needs to be changed to not do this.

yes and to raise awareness of what its capable of

Count with me.

English translation: Risen from CC and facing to the woodlines, let us serve you till the GGs, Mainland, united fatherland. Rushes are to be defended against and we fight them with slingers, for we must succeed that the sun shines more beautifully than ever shines over Mainland. Stone and metal be granted Mainland, our fatherland. All civs long for success, give your hand to the M gicro. If we are in danger of our lives, we beat the 2v1 (Two V One). Let the light of success shine, that never again a mother weeps her nub. Let's boom, let's rush, spam and push like never before, and trusting in our own strength, an OP player rises. Mainland youth, best aspiration of our people united in you, you will be Mainland's new life. And the sun beautiful as never shines over Mainland. Original German: Auferstanden aus CC und der Holtz zugewandt, laß uns dir zum GGs dienen, Mainland, einig Vaterland. Rushes gilt es zu zwingen, und wir zwingen sie mit Schleuderen, denn es muß uns doch gelingen, daß die Sonne schön wie nie über Mainland scheint. Stein und Metal sei beschieden Mainland, unserm Vaterland. Alle Civs sehnt sich nach gelingen, reicht den Micro eure Hand. Wenn wir lebensgefahrlich uns einen, schlagen wir des 2v1 (Zwei V Ein). Laßt das Licht des Gelingen scheinen, daß nie eine Mutter mehr ihren Nub beweint. Laßt uns boom, laßt uns rush, spam und push wie nie zuvor, und der eignen Kraft vertrauend, steigt ein OP Spieler empor. Mainland Jugend, bestes Streben unsres Volks in dir vereint, wirst du Mainland neues Leben. Und die Sonne schön wie nie über Mainland scheint.

In many games you need to consider whether you actually need these or not. It costs a lot of stone and the other resources are more useful for attacking your opponents. Gauls can use the least stone of any civ since their barracks don't cost stone and they don't need a fort for p3. Gauls can be very powerful with cav and other fast units, so when I play gauls I don't mine any stone the whole game and instead barter the 525 or 750 stone I need to go to p3.

So you would transfer the domain ownership to Wildfire Games staff, right? It's important for security to have WFG control the domain if you expect to have downloads of the game hosted there. Otherwise there's a risk that malware is, intentionally or unintentionally, sent to users via the site.

Its not really a build, but a strategy. A very funny strategy. But you are right, it has to be successful or else gg. A success would be destroying the cc and at least fairing well enough against your enemy's forces. If they have enough army and beat you, they can win by immediately attacking u lol.

Very lovely Adapted some words to have a consistent measure (the endavour was clearly worth the time): Auferstanden aus CC und der Woodline zugewandt, zum GG lass' uns Dir dienen, Mainland, einig Vaterland. Rushes gilt es zu erzwingen, und mit Schleud'rern zwingen wir, denn es muß uns doch gelingen, daß die Sonne schön wie nie über Mainland scheint. Stein und Stahl sei Dir beschieden, (technically this is wrong ) Mainland, unser'm Vaterland. Jede Civ strebt nach Gelingen, reicht im Micro euch die Hand. Wenn wir in Gefahr uns einen, schlagen wir das Zwei V Eins. Des Gelingens Licht lasst scheinen, dass nie eine Mutter mehr ihren Nub beweint. Laßt uns boomen, laßt uns rushen, Spam und Push wie nie zuvor, und der eig'nen Kraft vertrauend, steigt ein junger Gott empor. Mainland Jugend, bestes Streben uns'rer Civs in Dir vereint, wirst Du Mainlands neues Leben; Und die Sonne schön wie nie über Mainland scheint. that part is best:

archers are amazingly strong if you can "snipe" with them. Also if you have a decent mass of archers in your base for economic purposes, then it can be very easy to defend against skirm cav or archer cav rushes as long as you outnumber them significantly.

It's funny because a lot of people complained that battles felt like dishes hitting each other.

I'm curious to know why is that. Personally I didn't experience A26 much, but it seemed to me it was an enhancement compared to A25. Also I loved A24, but it seems I'm in strict minority. At least they just won an Oscar, lol.

I leave the aforementioned battles. I've done those tactics in multiplayer myself.I understand that many players get frustrated by an early rush like this. The turtle tactic is not so used in 0 A.D.

Since elephants are mostly unbalanced units, I suggest that upon reaching their 15-20% life bar, change their affiliation to Gaia, forcing them to attack everyone in a row.

Guys maybe we should stream more on Twitch which is gaming service afaik. https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/0 A.D. There are ~900 subs for this game. You guys can use restream.io which gives free streaming to 2 channels so you can stream to Youtube and Twitch in same time. Also, there are 2 games there for some reason.... (https://www.twitch.tv/directory/game/0 A.D%3A Empires Ascendant)

(We're still looking for an AI dev.)

soon we shall automate everything, sit back and win all games without touching mouse or keyboard

When feature is available to EVERYONE it is not cheating but it is game feature. Use your words wisely. Also any new features usually comes from smart people. It is kind of automation (easing manual repetive tasks) and focus more on strategy. Usually this is how game should evolve. It cannot be considered as cheating. Cheating is what gives you advantage and you don't have access to it. - Game modification which are not publicly available and not possible to integrate to future 0ad version to enhance game play - Modification of game stats - Physical hw cheatings / different HW (faster, better mouse, mechanical keyboard...) these nobody considers, but gives huge advantage in response times. Auto-aim, multiclicks... etc..

YAY !!!

Congrats you found a bug that exists since A20! It was indeed an art problem (looked at the wrong files above whoops) https://trac.wildfiregames.com/browser/ps/trunk/binaries/data/mods/public/art/actors/structures/britons/wooden_tower.xml?rev=18938 Fixed in Changeset 27571 – Wildfire Games

Apologies for my absence these days, this below is the reason.
