Ah. Well I blame you for me not catching that, because you only included one whale in the post I quoted above.

Wouldn't have thought it possible to build while the giraffe was there. (Was still there when the CC was built, eventually wandered off.)

I was thinking a hotkey for upgrading units/towers would be great.

Example applications: hotkeys for siege pack/unpack, scout tower upgrades and carth house upgrades to apartment, weapon switching with immortals, promotion to centurion.

I just noticed that there is an additional "Isthmus of Corinth" map in Alpha 27. That means we now have four different ones of these maps:

• Corinthian Isthmus
• Corinthian Isthmus (2)
• Corinthian Isthmus (4)
• Isthmus of Corinth (2)

Can we somehow consolidate or rename them, so we don't have these name collisions?

There are surely other Isthmen to name maps after.

Well, the new one was gonna replace the old one, but I was given the request to not do that.

The headline "Welcome to the 0 A.D. tutorial." shown at the beginning of the tutorial is broken in Alpha 27 and not being translated. Seems to caused by the introduction of non-breaking white spaces.

It's the same issue than the Github PR because the character should be escaped.

When deselecting the "Filter compatible saved games" checkbox in the load game screen a JavaScript error is printed, no matter if saved games exist or not:

The "Demo campaign - new maps" campaign doesn't include a single scenario and is therefore unplayable.

Yeah usually it's the maps that changed in the release. Once @wowgetoffyourcellphone changes one in theory it should be put in there.

This is fixed now. If you don't mind, could you please close the PR on Github (or grant me the necessary permissions)?

Old savegames maybe @Dunedan ? We don't discriminate savegames per version (we should)

I just checked and yes, it's caused by an old save game from 2019. Also no new behavior with Alpha 27/svn, but happens with Alpha 26 already as well.

"Ships" should be moved to the front of the list IMHO.

[Gurken Khan]

lol

Spoiler

Finishing a CC and winning coincided.

Should have been fixed with r27779.

I still don't like that they're called Stone Throwers in some places and go by a different name in others (for example the arsenal, where you build them).

In this case, stone throwers refers to both catapults and onagers. Although there may be other cases where the terminology could be better.

I'm thinking we should just standardize it to "catapult." Onagers are catapults, in the broad sense. "Stone throwers" might be needlessly pedantic and "catapult" is a term most people understand. "Bolt shooters" though seems to be a good term for scorpions and oxybeles.
