You can take a look at other numerical values (e.g. relic count). I know you can do that. About including this in the main game, I'm not sure it is needed, I mean if one VH AI is too easy, one can just fight more? I have yet to see someone beating 7 teamed AIs. Yeah, same here. ^^ I've tried a few things, but none really jumped the efficiency of her. I guess it needs more involved rewrites.

We prefer to actually make the PetraAI harder by smarter, but maybe this should be included as a temporary feature. Altough I guess we should also change the construction times on extreme.

You'll just have to wait untill the reviewer has the time to commit your work (or asks another team member to do it on their behalf).

This is already the case. (Boiling water probably, why use oil?) Making ditches to stop rams and such sounds nice (but would probably slow gameplay down a lot). They can stop them, but the structure has a loading range larger than one line of units, so it seems that they move through.

$ file metal_desert_small_a.dds metal_desert_small_a.dds: DOS/MBR boot sector; partition 1 : ID=0xff, active 0x8a, start-CHS (0x3ff,254,63), end-CHS (0x3ff,255,63), startsector 3587178495, 3468469193 sectors; partition 4 : ID=0xff, active 0xe2, start-CHS (0x3ff,14,63), end-CHS (0x3ff,255,63), startsector 4294180863, 4278223684 sectors

Do note that one can view our HP system as a combination of physical and mental health (e.g. morale).

(Reads familiar. :( I hope you get some contributors who like the TBS genre.)

Tooltips.

I think the modding forum speaks for itself? I can't really speak for the pre-2019 era, but from my experience people are always trying to help modders/newcomers. That said, it happens that the people with the right knowledgde are not active enough to help someone create their dream. This cool ->

There is no local storage space for entities yet, but if this is all for easing the AIs mind, you might want to look at PetraAI code, she does similar things by delegating stuff to managers and workers https://trac.wildfiregames.com/browser/ps/trunk/binaries/data/mods/public/simulation/ai/petra. It sounds more like it just costing that amount of resources but having a "default" amount in stock when created, although for maximum user control (e.g. how many resources should be in stock it indeed should be a user command).

Limitations of a 2D 3D game.

See also https://code.wildfiregames.com/D1731. It seems so, and it would indeed be cool if you could try and have this included in the main game (i.e. make a diff on Phabricator).

Yes.

Or something like https://code.wildfiregames.com/D2769 which I would prefer.

Too scarce on wood.

The problem is we need at least four-player maps to have any resistance. We tried Thessalian Plains (4) today, but got bashed by the three AIs. (SVN r25893: commands.txtmetadata.json) Probably due to too little aggression from our side. If we would have raided that 500+ resource trading route sooner we could have stood our ground perhaps. (We _are_ open for tips.)

@MoLAoS Welcome back. You'll find quite some information on trac (http://trac.wildfiregames.com) especially in the modding guide (https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/Modding_Guide). There are also quite some resources on the forums, like: In short: the components defined in JS can be added to an unit by fidling with the template XML.

I guess I should start playing skirmish maps once in a while.

I would say they should be rotated, else it becomes too uniform (says the person with entity variety set to "0").

Welcome to legacy. I am by no means an authority on the matter, but SVN is where the code resides (from almost the start of the project), Trac was chosen as an all-in-one development platform, for tickets, code reviews, wiki and such, then people migrated development to Phab (I must admit it _does_ ease reviewing), but kept the rest on Trac, somebody made a repo on GH and GL probably because it looked cool, but we don't use it (developers can use it though). Maybe https://subgit.com/ is interesting?

It might have to do with TLS: https://trac.wildfiregames.com/wiki/FAQ.

@Thales See:

This one is actually quite fun. If we can't include the Han for some reason, my vote is for this. It really closes the circle (pun intended).

Cool, I also tested it and it works.
