Seleucids

Regarding @Barcodes proposal on pyramids, I've tested some values and I've made a pull request with the following changes: 1. Temple of Amun's healing range increases from 40m to 70m. This is because the building itself occupies most of the area within its aura, so there is not much space left for the units to be healed, espcially on the corners. Increasing to 70m gives ample space for units to stand nearby and heal. 2. Large Pyramid aura range increased to 100m. This radius is approximately the width of a late game army (120~130) units in close order formation. The previous 70m is too small to affect the whole army, especially considering the size of the pyramid itself and the likelihood of buildings / complicated landform around it. 100m should give sufficient space for the aura to have a strategic impact. However, 140m or greater values might be too OP, so let's be conservative here. The idea of the circular aura is being able to use this building to give you an advantage while invading an enemy bordering you; you are covered by the aura even when you are inside enemy territory. Similarly, it provides you with an advantage at defending against incoming attacks, which is what Kushites are weak at. https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/pulls/7963

We don't want A24 to return though 220 pop for kushites might be too OP, because they have mercs to save themselves. The other 220 pop civs all have fatal flaws that make this necessary. Another idea is to give Kushites a 5% pop bonus, so they become 210 pop limit in a 200 pop game.

I made a pull request to give the Numidian Skirmisher cav 10% walk speed bonus without changing anything else. This raises their walk speed from 16.2m/s to 17.8m/s, but no change to running speed or any other UnitMotion components. I haven't seen much opposition to the idea here and testing the change, I found: - Increase in speed is good for hunting and scouting. - If you are in an outnumbered jav cav vs jav cav fight, you can escape while loosing less, but still taking some damage. - You are still slower than spear cav but only slightly - your jav cav can still be chased down by spear cav but they take a bit longer to catch up to you - easier to flee from spear cav spammers. - I knew you'd try to formation dance so I made no change to the run speed https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/pulls/7961

This flag worked. I could build the game without atlas. [user1@LAPTOP ~]$ sudo pacman -Q | grep "wx" wxwidgets-common 3.2.8-3 wxwidgets-gtk2 3.2.4-1 wxwidgets-gtk3 3.2.8-3

I have also encountered this problem now. It occured after an Arch Linux update. I try to run ./update-workspaces, and now I get this error: [user1@LAPTOP workspaces]$ export WX_CONFIG=wx-config-gtk3 [user1@LAPTOP workspaces]$ ./update-workspaces.sh Premake args: WX_CONFIG must be set and valid or wx-config must be present when atlas is enabled current value: wx-config-gtk3 ERROR: Premake failed I used the export environment variable as described by the build instruction: export WX_CONFIG=wx-config-gtk3 But seems like wx-config-gtk3 is no longer accepted. I changed it to gtk2 but still the same error. I also tried to disable atlas, but magically, the --disable-atlas flag has been removed from update-workspaces.sh ! What's the equivalent command for it now? I don't want the Atlas right now.

I like this idea. The Kushite buildings occupy too much of their aura themselves so that their aura is quite limited. I recommend increase the aura range of large pyramid to maybe 140m and large temple to 60m to decrease the buildings' obstruction.

An advice: don't be fooled by the ELO rating numbers. These numbers mean nothing; some players have unrealistically high or low numbers that will confuse balancing attempts. Since DoctorOrgans has an even chance against me in 1v1 (on Mainland standard settings), you should pretend that he is me when you are balancing teams. That will lead to better quality games and greater probability of completing the challenge. DoctorOrgans ≈ Ricci-Curvature (1610) Furthermore, placing him with his 'mascottes' will give him a performance boost (nababu). Something needs to be changed about the rating system, because right now it's totally uncorrelated with skill level. There are 1500s who can roll 1800+ rated players, then there are 1600 players who constantly fail against 1300 rated players. Some 1400 players are very strong teammates whereas others are Petra level.

The errors and crashes specific to bundlable-a27.1, 86c33 (Linux, KDE Plasma Wayland) https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/issues/7952 https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/issues/7951 https://gitea.wildfiregames.com/0ad/0ad/issues/7950

This happens to him when he tried to run ./update-workspaces.sh I used to have this error. My solution was to create another user on my OS and do everything fresh there. That worked.

Then you need to take account of his true level when balancing.

Well played Barcodes, impressive performance in carrying your team. This game was just simply imbalanced. To survive with DoctorOrgans, you must glue your army with his army at all times and follow him closely. The two of you will win by numbers. Since he is Spartan, he will be mostly javs and melee, therefore you should focus on longer ranged units such as slingers archers. If you are his pocket, bring cavs as well. He will be doing the main melee damage and meatshielding and you can be the sniper / taking care of the flanks.

There are many variations of the crash errors. I will put the issue onto Gitea. This RC gives a different error to the A27-0 version.

I am currently playing on the RC. It feels much much smoother than A27 and I have experienced no random crash / stuttering so far. The minimum fps has always been very high. Good improvement! However, Atlas crash still persists, especially on Wayland.

Bro you have such similar tastes to me, sadly Cyber Hunter has been discontinued and Honkai Impact 3 is not getting any new updates nor story chapters.

Here is a video demonstration of the playthrough @Stan`if you think it's a good idea, maybe I can make a PR and add these campaigns into public? I get that my maps are very empty, so any artistic recommendations would be welcome as well We really are missing campaigns and it would be cool to merge in some other people's campaigns as well so that the singleplayers have something fun to do :O

I am making a campaign which contains scenario-like levels to teach players advanced micro skills in battles to improve their fighting performance. This is the first version: battlecampaign.zip I will be adding more levels and tactics to it once Atlas Editor fixes itself from crashing all the time Feel free to give suggestions ! Link to the github (actively developing): https://github.com/Yekaterina999/battlecampaign.git

I tried again and I got a new error: ERROR: JavaScript error: simulation/ai/petra/_petrabot.js line 157 this.queueManager is undefined PETRA.PetraBot.prototype.Serialize@simulation/ai/petra/_petrabot.js:157:3 Unhandled unknown exception; terminating the application. /usr/bin/0ad: line 9: 79508 Segmentation fault (core dumped) "$pyrogenesis" "$@"

Atlas crashes very frequently and due to many things. It is completely unusable on Wayland so I have switched to Xorg, but still I am getting all kinds of errors. Here is one example when I try to play the map: WARNING: Attempted to set an unknown population capacity type: 'undefined'. Continuing with type 'Player Population'...

Steps to reproduce: 1. Set two players, one is Petra Ai, the other being a potential human player. Give both players civilisations (if you don't then the previous crash will happen) 2. Generate a new map for these players 3. Put down some buildings and units for both 4. Press play and this happens. crashlog.txtinterestinglog.htmlmainlog.htmlsystem_info.txtuserreport_hwdetect.txt

@Determina @Deicide4u The slings won because their range advantage allowed them to take a first hit at the jav team. At the end of the melee fight, the javs were running forward and having difficulty with pathfinding. This allowed the slings to take further free hits at them. However, with good micro, or if you place both teams at point-blank range, the javs will win. You can't nerf slings too much, otherwise javs are OP (A25). my approach would be a close order, charge straight in into point blank range, have a mixed fight. When all melees are used up, use skirmish formation on the javs. This will increase your opportunity.

I've already raised an issue and made a pull request to address this problem. You cannot join the host because of their network configurations or very slow map loading (there are many points of failure in the loading process), but I will add a button that allows you to escape from being stuck there

Which version of the game are you using? If it works for you on both A27 and A27.1, then I think it's my hardware / OS issue. I was playing on A27.1, that might be why CachyOS (Arch Linux in general) is known to conflict with some 0ad features, especially Atlas.

The jump between sandbox and very easy is too big, imo. This is especially the case with my newly merged pull request where I buffed the eco and military performance of the bot

I think there is something we need to change here: make "very easy" AI much much easier. It took me several tries to beat this very easy AI when I was starting. This can be achieved by: 1. Nerfing infantry rushes, reduce size of attack even further 2. Huge anti-bonus to the AI's eco and attack strength.
