Re: Counter for Multiplayer Quiters...

"Shaming" quitters isn't the right solution, since, as Per mentioned, many people don't think it's a bad thing. In practically every strategy game, you'll notice that more casual gamers don't like quitting because they find the satisfaction of destroying the enemy more important, while mor...

Re: Suggestion: Default action when clicking

The default hasn't been changed since the game was released for Windows in 1999. The reason the default was one-button mode even though Windows had two-button mice was because, at the time, RTSes were new to most players, and Windows users at the time didn't think of right-click as anything other th...

Oh, so that's what "2600k SB" means. I was confused by that for the longest time.

Re: master is disaster

The gigahertz wars ended with the Pentium 4 (which topped out at 3.8 GHz - 5 GHz doesn't sound too implausible an overclock), a 5GHz CPU doesn't necessarily mean "modern".

Re: Suggestion: Default action when clicking

Options -> Switch mouse buttons will make left-click "select" and right-click "act".

The closest we'll get to flying trucks in a balanced version of the game will be jetpack engineers (prereq: Improved Engineering, Cyborg Transport, see also jetpack mechanic, prereq: Heavy Repair Turret, Cyborg Transport), which will be implemented whenever I have a ton of free time (n.b. considerin...

Re: Warzone's power system

Not exactly. Unlike direct debit, speed of light debit works correctly when several things are ordered and money is not enough for any single one of them. That is, we allow partial paying, it just happens instantly. "Correctly" is relative. I still think queueing them is the correct solut...

Per wrote:Making the power accrue process much faster (perhaps constant time) has been discussed, and I agree that it would be a good idea. Now we all hope Zarel can make some time to rewrite the power code soon.
I haven't even found time for a fix for that one mod loading bug...

Sometime this summer.

Re: Most Critical Upgrade

In general, not getting power upgrades quickly can screw you over long-term.

Anything more specific usually requires details about the situation.

The username "manaze" looks familiar. Do I, perchance, know you from RTS.net or similar?

Re: WZ tower defence flash game.

Yeah, that's been around for a long time. I think it was inspired from Warzone. None of us have talked to the author, though.
