3.1 beta7 has been released!

if you build a HQ and then deconstruct it you still can design things http://developer.wz2100.net/ticket/3342

I prefer the 3 base settings TBH, I often use a mixture of settings in skirmish games against AIs...

Is that because you like the starting tech (pre-researched stuff), prebuilt bases, or both? Might you at least agree that pre-researched turrets, etc, shouldn't be given with their prereq's?

@Zany - that's defined in rules.js, the line to disable designer on HQ destruction has been commented out.

@Effigy - a mixture of things - the setting has quite profound effects: https://warzone.atlassian.net/wiki/disp ... i/baseType

For example, on maps like Great Rift I sometimes give the closest enemy AI players medium bases and the furthest full base. That way the AI's don't manage to kill each other before I turtle my way through their real estate.

How do you set a different base setting for individual AI players? Set the game to the middle bases option, and set a few to Insane difficulty?

P.S. We had an all artillery war with certain very unusual rules yesterday. And we'll keep doing such games on the beta7.

Didn't you have any problems with artillery attached to sensor units? I played a skirmish against 3 NullBot AIs. My artillery fired at the target given by the sensor they were attached to, approached the target, fired, and so on until they came in the range of the enemy defense. Ticket #3343

Sorry, I mean in conjunction with AI difficulty. So the INSANE AI is affected differently by base type setting - it keeps more buildings as shown on the URL I posted earlier.

NoQ, how do i get a crash dump? no pun intended

It is probably a good idea to mention this in the header as well (?)

[aubergine]

I was testing the campaign yesterday and arty + sensors seemed to work ok...

[Slartifartbarstud]

NoQ can devs open file from here? I attach latest crash log.

first bug report! http://developer.wz2100.net/ticket/3337
dibs on beta 8!

they don't want to fix it!

This is getting out of hand. I regret caving in to the purists on this one. We're adding a ton of ugly exceptions to the code so that a few individuals should not have to learn anything new.

zany - what the heck is wrong with you?

Stop the fricking' complaining all the time. It is getting really annoying. Don't make duplicate posts. And it is clear from the above that you don't even understand the discussion. And I'm not a "they".

you got that backwards since you are the one that keeps changing things away from how it was that is a direct quote that you said and you want to shoot the messenger?
