Ok, perhaps it's something else I'm thinking of Perhaps it was the unit creation? I'm pretty sure it cheats =)

It sounds like you accidentally clicked a tree rather than order the units to go to the specific spot? It's definitely not any defined behaviour for units to automatically start gathering if they stand idle for a while in any case. You shouldn't have to select them individually however, either double click to select all units of the same kind and rank on the screen, triple click to select all units of the same kind regardless of rank, or drag a box around the units to select them if there are units of different kinds (I do realize there might have been other units around making that hard, just want to make sure you're aware of the possibilities ). Selection limits for trees etc will be improved, so it should be easier to avoid accidentally ordering your units to start gathering etc in the future, regardless of whether or not that's what happened

I believe there are some technical difficulties with that. I'm not sure about the details, but it's something to do with how the engine processes things if I remember correctly.

Ctrl+Right click is the hotkey for garrisoning It wasn't in the manual before, but now it is. Thanks

What a sad coincidence. Or not necessarily a coincidence since it seems a lot of sound people use Macs, but still, a bit ironical at least that the people who'd need sound the most don't get it at the moment.

Would probably work, but still, it feels like it should be a higher number, so the cost is higher. At least the lower limit for the speedier creation (or to put it in other words, the smallest batch) should be five, so that the initial cost is higher than just creating say three units after each other. If nothing else the speed boost would probably be so small that it's better to have the resources free for something else (at least in the sense that you could remove units from the queue if you found the resources were better needed elsewhere) than create smaller batches.

The thought is to make batch training faster than creating five (or more) individual units one by one, but everything comes at a cost If you don't have enough for a batch (which currently is, and probably will continue to be, five units) you cannot take advantage of the speed bonus.

Hello

I think AoK did something like this as well, I seem to remember it not saving the Fog-of-War, but it was a long time ago so I could be wrong Will be nice to have in any case.

(Should be possible, hopefully we'll be able to select all buildings/multiple buildings and queue production in all of them at the same time, so this shouldn't be an exception. The only difficult thing would probably be for things like technologies which can only be done once. Either they should not show up when multiple buildings are selected or perhaps they could get executed in the first building selected.)

Sweet. Good to know you got it to work, and nice to hear it wasn't our fault

Could you please post a screenshot of what it looks like?

There's no need for the word to be Greek It's certainly nice if it's somehow related to the Hellenes though

Hello Jim! Welcome to the forums, and thanks for the nice words We've all started somewhere, so don't worry, I'm sure you'll find some way you can contribute (a couple of suggestions on this page: http://wildfiregames.com/0ad/page.php?p=12831 ).

Hmm, are you running the installer with admin permissions? (Not sure how much difference that would make, but if the uninstaller doesn't work that could perhaps be the cause ) Either way, are you using the most up-to-date drivers for your graphics card? That can sometimes be the problem when things doesn't look the way you expect them to.

An easy way to check for sure is to start a game and then start building something. It should look something like in this image: http://www.moddb.com/games/0-ad/images/beef-its-whats-for-dinner#imagebox (Moving this topic to Bug reports as particles most definitely are implemented )

Even if we put a maximum it will be easy to change, so I think everyone should be satisfied in that regard. That doesn't mean that the game will run great with an infinite number of units of course though

The Design Document (DD) says farms will have infinite supply, but will be limited to one gatherer and will decay if left unattended for a while. The DD also says they will only be possible to be built on "vacant lots" around the farmstead (each farmstead would come with a limited number of vacant lots and you'd only be able to build 2 farmsteads in each territory), we'll see how we do with that but in either case limiting the number of farms in one way or another is likely. Or at least their efficiency.

That's how I imagine them at least Not sure what use they would have of them otherwise

Ah, yeah. That will most likely not work at all. It's definitely recommended to have a dedicated graphics card to run the game well, it might work otherwise, but run well is another thing. I'll leave it to the programmers to say if it would be possible to get the game to work on your computer, but unfortunately it doesn't sound like it will be possible.

What graphics driver are you using? Also what graphics card do you have?

The Alpha is not yet released, but we've started putting up release files for testing. You can find them here: http://releases.wildfiregames.com/

Seems like he missed this thread when he got back.

Ah, ok. No problem, just thought if it was quick to add

Would it be possible to add a checksum column to the releases page? Would make it easier for people to find the info
