If I may, shouldn't maybe the team figure out what they want?
well, the team is small and can't have eyes on everything. In this specific case I don't know what the original design plan was and I have (at least at the moment) no strong opinion if this is a feature or a bug, i.e. what the expected behavior is.
So all the player are welcome to chime in and give their opinion on how this should be.
Is this cool or confusing?

Because the tooltip is generic and doesn't know about buildings or units etc.
Off-topic but I think it would be good to remove the "Trained by" & "Builds" information from the tooltip. I feel like they provide near to no value and are just visual distraction

yeah, not sure what we actually want.

Did we change that?
https://code.wildfiregames.com/rP26483
new bush mixin as people complained about bushes blocking foundations. iirc @wowgetoffyourcellphone mentioned that he would like to color it yellow when it will be deleted, but the answer was that this requires engine changes.

Maybe it's because everyone uses Shiny by @maroder
yeah, I meant to make it a popup at some point
also, I personally just enabled feedback a few months ago after playing for years now and none of the people I know that play the game have it enabled, so I guess you can multiply the number easily by 10x or even more. Especially since the game has a major Linux audience who is generally even more conscious about their personal data and security stuff.

The maps look really interesting, congrats
I'm looking forward to see how the implementation looks.

for your next Shiny background?
Yeah I know that one
just time missing to get good at it

Not sure if we need another wall or if this is useful for someone by I just found this nice CC0 model:
https://polyhaven.com/a/modular_fort_01
At least from the pictures it looks low poly enough that we could use it without much changes and even if it is too high poly: the textures also look very good.

Oh an there also is https://trac.wildfiregames.com/ticket/6560
Not sure if @wowgetoffyourcellphone would like to keep it as is or change something there.

Last thing open for the Han is the roster restructure: https://code.wildfiregames.com/D4713
would be nice if some more people would look at/ accept it. I also read the maybe the minister should only cost 1 pop instead of two (not sure how many people feel that way).
And then there is @borg-'s Persia overhaul: https://code.wildfiregames.com/D4724
which should also be accepted/ checked by much more people before including it right before string freeze.

Not at the moment unfortunately. If I may ask: are you using an especially high res screen? Or is it more of a contrast issue?
-
I would like to, but the question is if everybody agrees/likes it
anyways, this will be available through the in-game mod downloader for a26.

How's the updated version? : https://code.wildfiregames.com/D4713

Anyway, any new fun idea is welcome.
agreed (unfortunately can't think of a better idea right now)
I just have the feeling that if we only do it for the perisan women that might be a bit misleading historically and we will probably have people complaining about this and saying that we should remove it again.
(off topic: Might be an option to think about the two-gendered citizens again)

Maybe they could pay for a specialization to unlock units. Could also be paired techs.
true, that could be fun.
6 minutes ago, BreakfastBurrito_007 said:they don't have javelin cav right? It is quite powerful to have both spear and sword cavalry, but I think not having javelin cav makes that less op.
they don't but I would say the crossbow cav is not that far off.
9 minutes ago, real_tabasco_sauce said:Ok, I would say if something gets removed from these, it should be sword infantry. With the only ranged units being archers, crossbows, and archer cav, i think this is comparable to many civs.
sounds ok.

If everyone agree that this is a good idea to have that many units: fine by me.
I only see the problem that the Han have basically every unit type: Spear, Pike (Ji), Sword, Crossbow, Archer + all types of cav.
So they basically have an easy counter to everything, which is a huge advantage. Combined with their strong eco that seems a bit unfair vs other civs who have a smaller roster.

@AIENDwhat do you think about https://code.wildfiregames.com/D4713 ?

fun and difference civ
yeah, I agree with civ differentiation, but if there is no historic background, the question for me is: Can't we find something fun for the persians that actually is based on history and keep the civilian bows for a civ where that is historically more correct?

Ministers also moved to the Imperial Court. The Imperial Ministry removed from the building queue.

what do you think of the citizen soldier cavalry crossbows? I would say these should be removed instead of the cav archers.
1 hour ago, maroder said:yeah, the camp should go
If people really want champ cavalry crossbows, I would say they should be put in a chariot, replacing the existing chariot unit.
I would dev keep either the normal cav crossbow or the champion. Not that strong of an opinion on which to keep. I just want to make sure that there is enough differentiation regarding the potential addition of the Xiongnus down the line, whose main fighting force are archers/ cav archers.

that change would be assuming crossbow training is removed. Even if it is not removed, then 10 pierce/second would be greater than the slinger dps which is 9.2 pierce/second, so I would argue for a range reduction to 40 meters to accompany your change, or perhaps an accuracy disadvantage compared to slingers. The unfortunate result will be that the unit will play very similar to slingers (but with some key differences), despite seeming so unique.
Including the crush damage slingers have 10.08 /s although granted, that the crush damage is not that effective vs units.

How do we feel about having both CS and champion crossbow cav? It seems weird to have so many crossbow units, also with very different stats:
for comparison: mace crossbow
40 pierce, 60 range, 9.6 walkspeed (champ inf costs).
Han Xbows:
CS infantry crossbow: 20 pierce, 45 range 9.6 walkspeed (40 wood cost, i guess the idea is the cost makes up for the units lower stats)
CS cavalry crossbow: 20 pierce, 50 range 14.4 walkspeed (40 wood cost too)
Champ cavalry crossbow: 40 pierce, 55 range, 14.4 walkspeed (champ cav cost)
I would say the different stats between mace and han are ok, because they used different crossbow designs.
I would rather not give them exactly slinger stats, but keep their repeat time as it is now and bump their damage up to 30 and remove the -10 health.
yeah, the camp should go.
Alpha 26 Pre-release/Release Candidate Build Testing

It does and maybe for a27 we will get some improvements there. But for this release this was the lesser evil and quick to do without the risk of introducing last minute bugs.
edit: and yes it's worst for the Han, most other civs are ok with this change from my tests.
