They are not "new". They are attack animations with fork. They even have attack sounds. It looks exactly like attack. They are capturing the building by sticking it with a fork.

It is beneficial to mix some females with the males and some males with the females, because of the female aura. Maybe someone can do the math and find a good ratio for different resource.

I think the tile floors make it look civic. I would go with dirt floor.

Make them do this: One of my favorite gif ever. Alternate view: https://www.reddit.com/r/Simulated/comments/4lfjqb/the_first_thing_you_think_of_when_you_hear_the/

My way is more straightforward, wouldn't you agree? Anyway, it is just a thought exercise, since 0 A.D.'s system is pretty much in solidly place.

No? Siege points are for siege interaction, not capturing.

Well, in DE all range siege have some crush attack*. But my actual preference for bolt shooter role is not possible right now, so I wait to balance them until it is possible to dramatically alter their role. Is prudent to not waste time balancing a unit whose role will change completely once a patch is commit to master. In fact, I don't worry much about balance in general until formation fighting is wirtten and committed.

It is in that link how would work. I like the movement in detail section. I think the formation should "fall in" and narrow itself to march through the narrow path.

Indeed. In my mod I even remove palisades (seem overly redundant with other wall).

Mayorcete look high af in that video bro. lmao

It's obvious in that document that Approach A was the approach the author wanted to go regardless of evertything said in this thread (and other threads), because I already adequately address all of the issue brought up against Approach B (real battalions).Quite a disappointment. Also, the morale part is completely unnecessary. You want morale, but think persistent battalions are a complication. OKAYYYY. I'll just see how the public mod does it and mod it from there.

Hmm, the chosen textures not good. I'd use the textures like the blacksmith.

<Splash> <Shape>Linear</Shape> <Range>8</Range> <FriendlyFire>false</FriendlyFire> <Hack>0.0</Hack> <Pierce>30.0</Pierce> <Crush>15.0</Crush> </Splash> I think it look like this.

One on right looks about 50% damaged. Maybe buildings need a 3rd set of UVs for damage texture.

Or "Conquest Civic Centers" too.

You remind me of how historical wacko first AOE was. (AOEII not much better). lol And yes, all projectiles are hard to see, except catapult rock of course. I think the game need the projectiles to kick dust when they hit the ground or target.

Do what @LordGood says. Also, look at the xml files directly in a program like Notepad++. A very simple actor to start with can be thise one: binaries/data/mods/public/art/actors/props/temp/l_sheath.xml Here is the xml for that file: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?> <actor version="1"> <castshadow/> <group> <variant frequency="100" name="Base"> <mesh>temp/l_sheath.dae</mesh> <textures><texture file="props/wrld_wood_3.dds" name="baseTex"/></textures> </variant> </group> </actor> Just paste your file names into that. It's the most basic of actor files: mesh + texture. Can't get more basic than that one friend. This is how it would look: <?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8" standalone="no" ?> <actor version="1"> <castshadow/> <group> <variant frequency="100" name="Base"> <mesh>props/wrld_create_test.dae</mesh> <textures><texture file="props/crate_test.png" name="baseTex"/></textures> </variant> </group> </actor> A lot of modding is about looking at the game's existing files and just editing and resaving from those.

Looks almost like a hoax, but seems to be real?

I like the new palm trees in the video and screenshot.

In my country, vote is like potato (not real).

Is joke. There were not formation in a1.

Let us go deeper: does ir work properly in a1?
