Five errors, bugs, or just weird things

[Thalatta]

I came across these things the last couple of days.

 

Some error while playing, but nothing bad happened:

 

The lower description can't be read because of the drop-down menu, and when hovering over selected map, the lower description given is from other two maps:

 

It says "Unlocked in City Phase" when I'm in City Phase already, the requirement is instead the tech being researched:

 

Pikes seem to go through stone walls (Philip's reforms were good, but chill a bit):

 

Forgot this one, there should be more space available in the lower description:

If release then likely fixed in git already.

Real bug, the dropdown getting in the way is sort of ok, not great for sure, showing wrong description definitely is not, also some description don't even fit in the tooltip region. Please file a bug on gitea.

Walls don't prevent attacks, just movement, this is no different than arrows.

For those I sad likely fixed would be nice if you could try to reproduce on main.

I agree that this is the case currently. But should it? Walls were supposed to protect people from attacks.

I acknowledge that 0AD uses rather 2 D (or 2.5D) hence modelling arrows crossing a wall might be a challenge. This was probably the reason for stopping movement but allow attacking through the wall. 

Funny enough, this works from both sides of the wall: it is hard to keep my troops inside the wall away from the attacking the enemy and they are fighting back although they shouldn't need to (same reason: enemy is near and in reach of the weapons but cannot move much closer. 

Wall defense should be left to the troops manning the wall and its turrets (still working on a mod that allows running along a wall towards the actual attack. Currently, the  wall segment attacked does not get replenishment or help form adjacent segments)
