Sound good. Some maybe need more emotions?

http://trac.wildfiregames.com/changeset/16010 This commit fixes Rotary Mill auyra problem. Thank you.

Sure go ahead. About the units on boats. The big problem is not the scale in my mind. The building are not to scale with units anyway. Docks are not to scale with ships, and all the rest. I think biggest problem comes from the pathfinder.

I added a little more information to the top post.

Cost.BuildTime is for something specific like Warships in this case.

Thanks! Can you confirm Cost.BuildTime doesn't work for auras too?

Here is the aura I have: <Auras> <AuraFood> <Type>range</Type> <Radius>50</Radius> <Affects>Gatherer</Affects> <Modifications> <ResourceGatherer.Rates.food.grain> <Multiply>1.20</Multiply> </ResourceGatherer.Rates.food.grain> </Modifications> <AuraName>"Rotary Mill" Aura</AuraName> <AuraDescription>Gatherers +20% Food Gather Rate within 50 meters.</AuraDescription> </AuraFood> </Auras>If I replace the Modification with something else it works. (I've set the multiply number to 3 just to test and make sure I can tell the difference, but it still doesn't work)

Thanks Prod. Here are a few things that are planned, but currently cannot work because the core game does not have the ability yet: Technology Effects - Technology Cost (I have a blacksmith tech planned for this) - Technology Research Time (I have a blacksmith tech planned for this) - Player/Ally/Enemy - Somehow "unlock" buildings for certain units (thinking unlocking palisades and towers for Spartan females, but there can also be other uses, but maybe there can be some workarounds for this instead?) - Market bartering rates (have 1 or 2 market techs planned for this) - Trader profit - Unlock allied vision - Unlock ability to drop resources at Allies' dropsites - Unlock enemy vision, with variable cost (10 Metal for each enemy unit alive) - "Treason" Auras - Technology Cost (player, ally), for Library - Technology Research Time (player, ally), for Library - Cost.BuildTime does not currently work even though the wiki says it should(?), for Themistocles' aura and for Delian League team bonus (I think this can be done with an aura if it was working correctly) - ResourceGatherer.Rates.food.grain does not work for some reason. Need this for the Celtic rotary mill aura.

NOTE: SVN COMPATIBLE ONLY. WILL NOT WORK WITH ALPHA RELEASES. Hi guys. I am looking for some beta testers for my mod that overhauls a lot of the game. It's not a super open beta because I use some placeholder icons for techs from the Age series and other source. I also use some interesting music just for fun. Anyway, the important thing is the rebalance and almost completely new technology tree with ideas from this forum. Also, it is not yet complete to the plan because the game itself is incomplete, but it is mostly complete and playable and is a lot different from the basic version of the game. Post here or PM me for the git download. DELENDA EST: An overhaul mod for 0 A.D. Empires Ascendant OVERVIEW This is an overhaul mod for 0 A.D. Empires Ascendant. Its goal is to introduce a new balance scheme, a revamped and greatly expanded technology tree, and other customizations to the game. The mod endeavors to push the game's modding capability to the fullest and to make the gameplay as enjoyable and as rich as possible. Keep in mind: - This mod is incomplete. Not every new planned technology or gameplay change has been implemented yet. - Many of the planned changes rely upon new features being implemented into the core game or engine. - This mod can be used to encourage those new features being implemented either by modders, open-source contributors, or official WFG team. Major unimplemented Features that this document assumes will eventually be implemented: - Formations: This mod re-enables the old formations from Alpha 16 and before. Once these are reimplemented by the official WFG team, it is planned to revamp them completely for this mod. - Trample: Some cavalry are planned to be better tramplers than others, so their stats would be adjusted accordingly. So, until Trample is implemented by the team or by modders some Cavalry stats may be wonky. - Charging/Charge Bonus: Like Trample, this would affect Cavalry stats immensely, and it is hoped that this is eventually implemented in the game. - Mercenary Camps: This mod starts the process of making Mercenaries a unique class of soldier for the game. It is hoped that either the official team or modders will implement the capturable Mercenary Camp idea talked about on the forum. - Building Capturing and Unit Conversion using a "Loyalty" mechanic: Some techs in this mod cannot be implemented yet (or are implemented in a different way) because capturing and loyalty are not implemented. Hopefully this feature is implemented so this mod can add another layer of richness to the gameplay. - Tech and Aura Modifications: These new modifications need to be implemented for this mod to reach its full potential: Altering Market Bartering recovery rates, Altering technology costs and speeds, (+ others here). MAJOR OVERALL CHANGES - Completely new unit balance and countering. - A new 4th Phase: Imperial Phase, which unlocks major technologies and abilities. Requires 1000 Metal and 1 Wonder. - Civic Centers are now buildable in the 3rd Phase (City Phase). This allows the players time to build up home defenses in Town Phase, or use the stone for a push to City Phase for expansion. - Now only Civic Centers and Wonders cast territory effects. Outposts and Economic stuff like Storehouses, Farmsteads, and Fields can be built outside territory, but buildings like Houses, Barracks, etc. can only be built within the player's territory. This creates strong cores of cities and makes the countryside weak and hard to defend. Also encourages building walls. - A completely redesigned technology tree, customized for each civilization. Blacksmith and Fortress trees are especially new. - Naval gameplay revamped with a Shipyard for the non-barbarian civs. Docks are for naval economy and Shipyard for naval warfare. - New special buildings, such as the Temple of Vesta for the Romans, with new auras and features. - Wooden defense towers available in Phase I can be upgraded to stone defense towers in Phase II, complete with visual change in appearance. - Corral is much more useful. What is Broken - Celtic Rotary Mill aura for Britons and Gauls. For some reason I cannot make the aura work, even though the code is visually correct. - Units trained in batches and rally-pointed to a resource or foundation will go to the rally point and will not begin gathering or building. They will just stand there instead. This is an old bug reintroduced somehow. - Some Fortresses cannot have enough space for garrisoned units to show up on the walls. Some Fortress models may need redesigned for this purpose. - Units show up on the Fortress battlements, regardless of type (female citizens and cavalry units how up on top of Fortresses when they garrison inside). There needs to be a way in the templates to dictate what types of units show up on the VisibleGarrison points ("Infantry Ranged" for example). - Cost.BuildTime effect for auras is broken. This specifically neuters the "Delian League" team bonus for Athenians and the "Naval Architect" aura for Themistocles. - I'll add more things here as I come across them. Screenshots NEW UNIT BALANCE The unit balance has been changed. The following list gives the basic changes, including features like charging that are not yet implemented in the full game. Melee Citizen-Infantry Ranged Citizen-Infantry CITIZEN CAVALRY STATS - Penalty: Horse Cavalry 0.5x vs. Elephants and Camels - Penalty: Camel .80x Speed - Bonus: Camel 1.5x vs. Horse Cavalry - Speed (walk/run/charge): 1.5x Infantry Counterparts Melee Citizen-Cavalry Ranged Citizen-Cavalry Other Melee Units Other Ranged Units Citizen-Soldier Ranks/Promotions Champions Mercenaries CIVILIZATION BONUSES AND CHANGES The specific bonuses and changes for each civ.

I think this is exactly how it used to be before but something changed. Before, if you say select 10 houses and want to train female, but you only had resource for 8 female, then it would train 8 female from 8 houses. Now, it won't let you do that.

Trample could be by double click and/or passive as you task them to charge beyond the enemy. Ranged would be otherwise.

This is not set in stone at all. It is unclear exactly what the programmers wish to cut from the planned features.

In my local mod I have made chariots a some different than "normal" citizen cavalry. They do not upgrade ranks, you must purchase improvements called Medium Chariot (City Phase) and Heavy Chariot (Imperial Phase) in order to make them uber good. It is my hope that I can change them further when trample damage is implemented by developer and improvements to the visiblegarrison part of the xmls that can make the archers passive garrisoned units and the chariot itself is used like a ram to smash into enemey units (trample and charge, you do still plan these right?). Like someone else said, the chariots would almost be a suicide unit (think of Petards in AOE2, but used against units instead of buildings), and the archers are just passive guys shooting at nearby enemies. I wish to do the same with elephants (but obviously less suicide and just more chaotic and crazy, for a big price).

Yes, they had issues, but not so much as the issues without them. I reenable them.

It is very interesting. Unfortunately the pathfinding for the ship with units on the deck is really weird.

For my mod I will include a "test" ship with units garrisonable on the deck. The pathfinder hgets confused because I think it runs separate paths for the ship and the garrisoned units, so the ship stutters and acts weird when you move it. I will include this test ship in a modified Ptolemies sandbox scenario.

You can test these very easy in scn editor. I look forwqard to your data.

Cannot git branch have been made for new pathfinding and formations and left the old formations in svn branch? Maybe you not think of this? hm?

Actually AGE2:TC would be a good reference for this Mesoamerican building set.

Hi modders. Looking to add a '500' option between 300 and Unlimited. I do this in gamesetup.js: const POPULATION_CAP = ["50", "100", "150", "200", "250", "300", "500", translate("Unlimited")];const POPULATION_CAP_DATA = [50, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 500, 10000];But the game interpret at unlimited. Is there seomething else that needs to be edited?

Can't you train 5, 10, 15, 20 men at same time?

I made Temple Vesta buildable and gacve it an aura that makes building around it stronger. Also made many civs have a shipyard (no model yet).

<Loot> <xp>100</xp> <food>5</food> <wood>0</wood> <stone>0</stone> <metal>0</metal> </Loot> <Looter/> <Promotion> <RequiredXp>100</RequiredXp> </Promotion>From the xml of infantry units A17. This is not changed from A16. sorry. You can be right tho if you want to be. i will not judge!

1st phase is all economics, setting up food production, hunting, berry pickings, setting up your farms, scouting, and all the rest. 2nd phase you get the military upgrades at the barracks and walls and towers are unlocked and you can start to make significant military research at the blacksmith. That's not to say you couldn't raid in the 1st phase (you get access to all citizesoldier types at the barracks, but you have to build it first and it is relatively expensive). I have also divided the Docks into a Docks (fishing, trading) and Shipyard (warships and warship research). Dock is 1st phase, Shipyard comes in 2nd phase.
