Hi @Pippo_Baudo, welcome to the forums. This would belong in the "Help & Feedback" subforum, but don't worry. Have you tried the tips in the FAQ? https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/FAQ If that doesn't help you could attach your logs to your reply so that people could look into those. Here's how to find them: https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/GameDataPaths

Ackchually, some civs don't have spearmen but pikes. And is it "basic" when it's p2? But maybe I'm too pedantic. I'm for rephrasing it to "huge" tracts of land.

Bulding Snapping Feature
Gurken Khan replied to vladislavbelov's topic in Game Development & Technical Discussion
I only use snapping when I'm iber and want my houses to align with the walls; the one-click orientation is just faster. I gotta do the actual placement manually though, because the houses ALWAYS jump off the position I want them at when I click; dunno if it's because I use it with shift, but it's annoying. I've tried it with palisades and walls in the current RC and was disappointed it didn't work. You still have to manually look for the right millimeter position if you want it to to start right at a building or mountain. And it's still annoying AF if you want to complete a barricade when (a) segment(s) have been shot out. -
Introducing the Official community mod for Alpha 26
Gurken Khan replied to wraitii's topic in Gameplay Discussion
Yeah, quite often. I find it aggravating when I'm pulling cav back and some pedestrian motherhugger hits me from ~halfway across the map. Maybe pikemen do it, but of course it's very noticeable with the punch crossbows have. -

Introducing the Official community mod for Alpha 26
Gurken Khan replied to wraitii's topic in Gameplay Discussion
I like the idea of giving sister civs sister bonuses. For me the Briton bonus always comes into play but it's not a big deal; for ten healers it's worth 250 res. It would feel like an upgrade to the brit bonus and gaul pretty much staying the same (doubling effect, halving affected tecs). I don't know if it's less generic and would actually affect gameplay. I guess you're proposing it here so it will be tested before going into vanilla? What I really don't appreciate is civ specific bonuses; if I don't have access to eles or mercs those bonuses are worthless. [I usually don't make eles or siege (unless I have two or more iber enemies), so those bonuses are usually worthless for me, but that might be a personal problem.] -

@Genava55 I heard about it yesterday on Deutschlandfunk and also meant to post about it. What I found interesting is A: that finds are skewed because flintstone arrowheads can't be found with metal detectors. And B: they figured from the arrowheads that the group from the south attacked at a bridge, were repelled, fled downstream where they were shot down with northern arrows. Here's the Antiquity article: https://www.cambridge.org/core/journals/antiquity/article/warriors-from-the-south-arrowheads-from-the-tollense-valley-and-central-europe/C4F6ECB759833BFD337D37ADAE564C4B#article -
Yup, that was it.

If someone is looking over the loading screen tips: I just read one saying most champions are built in the fortress; which is not the case anymore...

Do newbs understand that terminology?

@alre I like that you cross-checked it. But I'm not sure if we can discern from the written Latin how ironic it was meant. When I think of all the dongs on Hadrian's wall or the graffiti in Pompeii I get the feeling they were a pretty mischievous bunch. (Reading up on the dongs they supposedly were meant to ward off bad luck...) -
I was in this discussion and when I saw the pic I went "huh?". I think the text should be even more detailed than what you wrote, e.g. not only including "right" but also left center and left. I don't find it ideal that the rally point is not visible on the ele.

What will the tooltip say?

I second this. Every command should give audio feedback. (Bothers me every time I make my healers attack move and they don't even say "yes".) Even if there were audio clutter I prefer it over no audio feedback. In the vids you posted earlier today the rally point and the arrows seem to work independently of each other? I think the sound you selected for the arrows is good, but i also would like a "plonk" or thud for the rally point; maybe if there's nothing to target at the point not both sounds have to be played.

Maybe using TOR would work, I use it to circumvent geoblocking; the slower speed shouldn't matter for registering.

For now I can only go by the sources: an official government body and the Smithsonian. But the find kinda looks too good to be real...
