Ok thanks. Yes it was when rejoining.

Yes i am playing with AI. Is there any chance this will be fixed in next release? Also i have just finished a game and got that error. Will it still be useful if i return the ooslogs and commands.txt?

Next time i play and it happens i will look for them.

Just had another look and this has been posted before. But not recently and it doesn't seem to have been fixed. Using alpha 21 btw.

Hi. This has been a problem for a while but i haven't bothered to post this as a error yet. Sorry if there is already a similar topic, i did a search but found nothing. The issue is that when i am disconnected from a LAN game, as sometimes happens due to the poor quality of one of our computers, i rejoin but get an "out of sync error". This means that both players have slightly different games going on that slowly diverge from each other over time. I can't quit and rejoin either. The error does not turn up the second time, but the game remains out of sync. It's really annoying as you can imagine. Particularly when you find out that your ally was destroyed 10 mins ago. I am running the game on Ubuntu and our WiFi connection is good. Hope you know what's going on and if it will be solved at some point.

That is true. Not a huge difference, but yes, when you expand you get a predefined set of land. Not to say that would be a better design than what 0ad has (i do like how it is now), but i imagine predefined sections would be good for ensuring one cannot create too many chokeholds, as well as preventing those annoying situations where you expand, but can't fit a wall in due to a forest or something. Still, the current system is fine in my opinion. On the point about the line, it seems to be much wider, has a different (less harsh) color, and has some gradual alpha transition.

Yeah, the transparency is nice. And the border is slightly wider i think. The current lines are a bit harsh to look at. Though to be honest it's not the most pressing issue.

I think it's definitely well crafted and thought through, but yea the game doesn't suit me. I don't like the idea of only having a certain number of buildings in an area (though i see why they did that), and the unit control is a bit odd.

I recently bumped into this game called northgard. It's in early access and i noticed it had similar mechanics to 0ad in some ways. The territory concept is the same, and a lot of the art feels like the Gauls or Britons. I have played it for an hour now, and it is quite different to 0ad, but can't shake that feeling that it is somehow similar. Anyway, it wasn't really my type of game, but here are some screenshots and maybe if people are interested in gameplay ideas, check it out.

Wow, looks like loads of improvements in this version!

This looks great! Any general changes in troop balancing that I should know?

Won or one?

Anyone been working on this?

This sounds great but how do you get it actually implemented or initiate a discussion with developers? A mod?

I really like the concept of individual city phases but I also think there is a need for general upgrades. The general upgrades would be available as they are at the civic centre and would unlock technology's such as stone towers etc. The city phases would upgrade to use these new technology's. A level 1 city would have wooded towers, a level 2 city would have stone ones.
