In DE, I've added Gorgo for Spartans (as a bonus for Leonidas: Royal Marriage). I was thinking of adding Olympias and Roxana (Rawšanak) along with one more male hero for the Macedonians (perhaps someone more "obscure", like Eumenes), for a total of 7 for them.

A little something fun

Creating a new post which goes into details about Delenda Est's current technology tree and its icons/portraits.

Not specific to DE, but some other possible updates:

There can be a 2nd actor with a different animation. The tech can alter the template to use this 2nd actor. Techs can change an object's base actor, just can't change prop actors specifically.

Yes, that was my chief inspiration.

The map is low key terrible. lol I've often advocated for removing the terrible maps from the game entirely, but I've been frequently overruled on that.

Just wondering if somebody would want to help me make this a reality.

Probably being researched in a different barracks.

A map rotation/mirroring feature for Atlas would be nice.

It's largely been filled in over the centuries.

Okay, but what changes in DE would make that happen? I'm at a loss.

Nice. Which part are you animating? The grindstone? I wonder of you'd be willing to help animate the Sasanian farmstead. It has two sail-driven grindstones. Perhaps as with the forge smoke, the sails can turn when the farmstead is researching (rule of cool).

I fixed a few refs in research manager and had a match vs AI where their units didn't go idle. I'll attempt some more test matches tonight. EDIT: Nevermind. Still happening: I see they have plenty of food, but have stopped gathering the wood needed for phase-up for some reason.

Sadly, we can't currently only change props from techs, we can only swap in a whole unit actor. So, the best you could do is "levels" of gear, like "Basic Kit" -> "Medium Armor" -> "Heavy Panoply", which is fine and can definitely work. Then attack could increase by ranking.

Looks like pickRandom was deleted as a tech research option in https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/pulls/8468/files#diff-982d380b40dc36243a91196999bdea61854236ba But I use it in DE's researchManager: if (tech[0] == "gather_lumbering_ironaxes" || tech[0] == "gather_mining_pickaxes") return { "name": pickRandom(["gather_lumbering_ironaxes", "gather_mining_pickaxes"]), "increasePriority": true }; if (tech[0] == "forge/techs_forge_cost" || tech[0] == "forge/techs_forge_speed") return { "name": pickRandom(["forge/techs_forge_cost", "forge/techs_forge_speed"]), "increasePriority": true }; Could this cause the problem? I really want the AI to choose a tech out of these pairs. It worked well enough in R28. If that's true, then base game's researchManager is bugged too at line 91: if (tech[0] == "traditional_army_sele" || tech[0] == "reformed_army_sele") return { "name": pickRandom(["traditional_army_sele", "reformed_army_sele"]), "increasePriority": true };

Making headway! Any ideas for auras and techs?

The current Achaemenid wonder in DE is the Apadana of Darius.

He seems like a worthy addition, but having 6 would strain the current choice UI layout. I'd actually like to redesign the choice layout to allow for more hero choices, but I am no UI coder. I'd need help on the code side.
