[What Games Speed Are You Comfortable With]

To be honest I often choose one of the slowest game speeds. I play the game more for optimizations (e.g. winning without losing a single unit) than just for fun and I'm really bad at multitasking. This is also the reason why I don't really play multiplayer (observing is interesting though). It's like a kind of chess where more time to think and react leads to less errors.[...]

 

I'm not very good at multi-tasking either. At least, not nearly as good as other RTS players. I've only played the game at 1x so far, and have played several multi-player games. I'm 5 (losses) for 5 in 1v1 matches.

[Installation on Slackware 14.1 64Bit]

@sanderd17: By default, the Slackware package manager doesn't use dependency tracking. I typically install everything from the single installation DVD.

After that, an easy way to install more software is to use scripts provided by a third-party site called SlackBuilds.org. A program that make SlackBuilds even easier to use is sbopkg.

0 A.D. 0.0.20 is presently in the SlackBuilds repo: https://slackbuilds.org/repository/14.2/games/0ad/

Installing manually is an option some Slackers choose though. Just thought I'd pass along the info for future reference.

And actually I see some of that information is mentioned on the 0 A.D. site under Download -> Linux section ( https://play0ad.com/download/linux/#Slackware )

That page may need to be updated slightly, as Slackware 14.2 was released on July 1, 2016.
