Stan` Posted May 5, 2020 Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 Currently the rally point and the some new shields by @Alexandermb use the trinacria But it seems that's just the name greek gave to sicilly so maybe it should be replaced by owls ?

Genava55 Posted May 5, 2020 Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 I would say yes. https://www.greece-is.com/symbol-athenas-feathered-friend/ Athenian drachma on google image: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nescio Posted May 5, 2020 Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 Personally I think each civilization in game ought to have exactly one, unique faction emblem, which is used for everything (banners on stuctures, rally points, garrison flags, etc.).

Stan` Posted May 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 @Nescio Sure. Here the question was whether the banner was incorrect. While at it I can fix the garrison flag Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The use of banners is a bit anachronistic for Classical Greek city-states (though not for Persia). But yes, using Athena's owl is certainly preferable. The triskelos-with-gorgoneion is more appropiate for Syracusae; here's a coin from c. 300 BC: Spoiler 3 hours ago, Stan` said: While at it I can fix the garrison flag From that I gather banners are not the same as garrison flag in 0 A.D. What's the usage difference exactly? Looking at the files located in art/actors/props/special/common, I conclude: garrison_flag_celt.xml → split in *_brit and *_gaul garrison_flag_hele.xml → split in *_athen, *_mace, *_spart, and *_theb garrison_flag_iber.xml garrison_flag_kart.xml → rename to *_cart for consistency garrison_flag_kush.xml garrison_flag_maur.xml garrison_flag_persians.xml → rename to *_pers for consistency garrison_flag_ptol.xml garrison_flag_rome.xml garrison_flag_seleucids.xml → rename to *_sele for consistency (It's not really urgent, of course.)

Stan` Posted May 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 Banners are used for rally points, and if I ever finish that waypoints (D557) garrison flags are put on top of building if they are garrisoned. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nescio Posted May 5, 2020 Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 Are rally points the same things as waypoints? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Stan` Posted May 5, 2020 Author Report Share Posted May 5, 2020 If I finish the patch they will be a special kind of waypoints technically you shift click rally points making them actually way points (Notice it use the incorrect texture) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
