This is a valid point, so for heroes that have short range attack bonuses, they should get better armour. However, we can also increase the range of aura to beyond the reach of enemy ranged units. We can also add techs that work on improving the hero.

No one was using custom rating mod today and the error still occurred, so there is something wrong at a more fundamental level about the ratings code.

Before he disconnected, he was 1412, but after he rejoined, he became rating-less. It could be related to bugs in the rating system?

Dear developers, Sometimes, when a player disconnects from a game, they rejoin as a spectator. For example it happened to 0AD2121 today: The most common solution is to delete all cache files and reboot, which solves the problem. However, it would be great to eliminate this bug from the very beginning. In addition, multiplayer games with AI always result in OOS error, is there a way to fix this? Best, Heli

It would be good if we can control the defensive buildings' arrows to shoot at a particular target, similar to controlling infantry archers.

Very unlikely but not entirely impossible; if he was born in 1944, that makes him 79 years old now. Now I know the commands to kick and ban /kick /ban I will use it on him if he misbehaves again. Half of the time, he is acceptable.

What's the command to display warning message and play the alarm sound? Which file controls it? This problem existed since A24. There wasn't a problem in A23.

You don't want close range heroes like Scipio to die too quickly Also some heroes don't have bonuses so they are used as meatshields. You can have bonud heroes and meatshield heroes, separate. For good measure, let elephant heroes be meatshields and cav heroes be fragile. Agis gets 1500 health please

I was the host of the game and I regret not kicking him earlier. I also saw these messages but I was too focused on playing. DoctorOrgans clearly isn't from the Third Reich. There is nothing wrong about being born in Germany in that era but there is everything wrong in writing "3th" instead of "3rd".

So that it's more important to protect that unit rather than suicide it? You are training a hero for its bonuses, not for meatshielding.

Precisely. I have seen a player called N1met squeeze his entire army of 140 infantry units into a dense crowd of size similar to the size of a siege tower with units overlapping each other. If it was in real life they would have collapsed into a neutron star. Not far from the Schwarzchild radius neither. So we should disable unit overlap, because that just allows insane damage to be concentrated at one point, cause bad battle actions. If everyone had more space, there would be less pathfinding struggles and less instant massacres. The counter-argument is that archers would be OP without unit overlap, because in limited spaces, the skirmishers can never get into range of archers so they will be sitting ducks. Exactly. The ranged units do too much damage compared to the health of melee units.

Please explain. I can't understand why a single cavalry hero unit is as strong as 5 champion units. If he is slightly stronger, that's possible; we have some exceptional people, but equivalent of 5 is just absurd. The champion units are appropriately strong in my opinion. A reasonable set of stats for champion sword cavalry should be 400 health Same speed and turn rate as other cavalry units 1 more armour and 1 more attack than the champion sword cavalry.

And this is linked to another thread that I started

My first YouTube video!

Best way is install from repository.There are other options like snap and flatpak if your repo doesn't work. Now, Ubuntu is trash, go arch or Fedora

Yes. On Linux it is unloaded, but sadly Microsoft wants to inflict agony on all of its users and you never know what they are up to with these system processes

Windows? If you are running windows then 0ad will crash often because it is 32 bit on windows -can only use 4GB ram even if you have 8 installed

Try deleting all cache, config, logs and restart the system to see if it persists

Heroes have already been nerfed since A23. Back then, Roman heroes had 2000 health and the elephant hero had 2400 or 3000 health. I want to hero dance so I'm against nerfing them too much.

I just copied a lot of assets from public. As I said I haven't finished Working on it. when it's done it will be smaller hopefully. The difficulty here is replacing the terrains with just dark grey

Ey it's incomplete, you will get scaf errors when you try to build things. I thought people hated the mod

Dear all: The hero units, especially cavalry units, have thousands of health, top tier armour and insane attack values. They are absurdly strong as individuals, quite undying. Many people use the hero to distract large armies and absorb huge amounts of damage, while others can plunder a whole base with a single hero unit. I think we should decrease the stats of heroes themselves to maybe slightly stronger than a champion, or even unable to attack, such that we have to work on protecting the hero (makes more sense to protect the important people in a society) instead of using them as a meatshield. Let me know what you think

Ever since I streamed on Leopard's channel with AbstractGUI mod enabled, many people have asked me where to download it. At the courtesy of @Yekaterina, I am allowed to share it with everyone. Please find the download link here: abstractGUI.zip

I want to add: this weekend I returned home from school and I shared my father's optical fibre network. I had no trouble joining Norse Harold using my laptop neither. So the cause was partially the school WiFi.

This is a good point. Do you think it's possible for there to be a special alarm warning that a woman has been killed? Normally there shouldn't be too many women dying, if there is, then there is definitely something very disastrous (sneaky cavalry raid) happening in the player's base and the player should pay much attention to it. In this case the spam is worth it.
