Hello everyone! I’d like to share the latest updates from the project as we wrap up the year. I’ve redone many textures and improved several in-game structures. At the moment, I’m reworking all terrain textures, developing the building damage system, and refining many core gameplay mechanics. I hope you enjoy the updates and continue following the development. Wishing everyone a Happy New Year!

The Swedish translation is now cleaned up and complete. I would like to get Reviewer status in Transifex to be able to change some older strings. Username is yeager

In this game Persian guy had also a Seleucid ally (me) and the build times look about right after taking into account the -30% construction time team bonus from Seleucids. I don't know about the other building bonus.

There is an A23b appimage that might work too.

Did you use all your workers? Do you have a replay?

It's great to see more use of this, only the Iberians even have this in vanilla 0 A.D.

For the case that the "capture the wonder" will victory condition will be included someday, I spent some thoughts on the "game type" menu, which is somehow counterintuitive imo: For the game speed and ceasefire, there's the category on the left, with the options on the right. For the victory condition, there's no category, instead the options are on the left, with the on/off buttons on the right. The "No"s are also kind of confusing. So what I was thinking of: 1. Put the category to the left: "1. Victory Condition" 2. Add a dropdown at the right to choose from all possible victory conditions 3. Add a second "2. Victory Condition" with the option "none" 4. For every further victory condition that is selected from the dropdown, add another victory condition with "none" This way all unused victory conditions are hidden in the dropdown. Since the victory conditions only appear after the previous one is chosen, at the first look it will be less text, so less overwhelming for beginners. This would allow to add more victory conditions in the future without overcrowding. Options for each victory mode could be shown directly under each one, not at the end like it is now. Also the logic between the victory conditions are clearer, as all conditions right now are alternative, not additive, ways to win. Later a button could be added to define for each condition whether it is necessary or non-mandatory to win. This could look like this: This could be the layout for the options:
