  1. There was a debate about that, both had pros and cons :)
  2. When you started to build the dock, did you put workers to work on it?
  3. I checked for 0ad alpha23beta: - There is the healer hero and the chariot hero whose aura affects some cost. - For the chariot hero: temples cost and built time are reduced, temples tech cost and research time are reduced. - For the healer hero: tech cost and research time are reduced when the hero is garrisoned in the building producing that tech. (The tooltip is not really clear.) EDIT: I meant actually checked and tested.
  4. Yes man, here it is: https://wildfiregames.com/forum/index.php?/topic/18369-task-new-unit-meshes/page/4/#comment-316615 And also: http://irclogs.wildfiregames.com/2016-05/2016-05-19-QuakeNet-%230ad-dev.log
  5. That was already discussed in the forum, I understood that it was decided that it wasn't an issue relative to the benefit.
  6. Just for information in case that was forgotten (I didn't read it, so no intention behind posting the link) https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/ArtDesignDocument#PlayerColor Btw all that is beautiful
  7. While I agree with you on the meaning, most of the work which is needed in that kind of project is not noticeable. On a open source project, the code mess is visible so you can't hide it and just produce something that 'works' at time t. ;-) edit: sum up, the issue is to "get the balance right".
  8. 1) what @(-_-) said 2) attack range has several meanings depending of the part of the code which use it... and most of the time it's not exactly what you expected an attack range is :-)
  9. Can you please revert this statement. I provide you answers in PM. You and/or your mate connect to irc. We answered the questions you asked us. I am very disappointed.
  10. There is a cycle of two free interesting mooc (on an "academic" site) https://www.fun-mooc.fr/courses/course-v1:EPHE+126001+session01/about It's in french only but I share it because it fits perfectly with 0ad art, history and timeframe: from Alexander death to Actium defeat and it covers more or less the whole Alexander's empire area. Enjoy!
  11. I asked related question here: https://wildfiregames.com/forum/index.php?/topic/25504-special-units-and-so-on/&tab=comments#comment-371680
  12. Hi! What do you mean by that? (can you detail it a bit more?)
  13. Yes they have, I showed a fun example. In some mods, there are chariots with it too. (I am still writing the note I promised to you.)
  14. I don't request a subforum about special units, it's just a topic about that without any other purpose to speak of that in a generic way It seems the post above was posted in the wrong topic, am I wrong?
  15. I hope everyone enjoyed it. I would congrat those who got all the refs. Hehe good point, I didn't know
  16. Well some news. After 6 months of hard work, it was the time to have a real life meeting. So we met during 3 days in Molvania at our own expenses. We had profitable discussions and spend also a lot of times to code. It was also the moment for us to discuss about our recent new contributors. Among them, I would cite Richard and Eric, or our Nvidia gpu expert Benedict (he could become our future community manager), Donald Ervin who will write some docs, Brian and Dennis who will help us on the c part of the code (they are currently busy writing a book), or Alex who plan to help us on the AI but currently busy to learn many things. The last day, we take a good dinner based on pizzas, garlic and cheese sandwiches and last but not least pork and beans. We kept the tarte flambée for after our STK game. We was really exhausted and took some rest watching Escape from New York. The end scene, the fact that one of our dev have removed thousand lines of dead code and perhaps some fermented beverage led us to take a decision: we had to fork our own fork. We are proud to announce that the name of our meta fork is Spoon AD.
  17. black_cloak Those Thracian guys armed with Rhomphaia Wikipedia knowledge as entry point :-) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thracians The weapon https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rhomphaia The clothing https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thracian_clothing (is black cloak the good name?) The battle of Pydna https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Pydna (Are Black cloaks mainly the clothes wear during 3rd Macedonian war between mace and rome?)
  18. Thorakites wikipedia is a good entry point https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Thorakitai For that one there are interesting things to do, current vanilla 0ad missed it a bit.
