Hi all,

I'm opening this thread to track/discuss ideas for some ideas for overall project direction as we continue through the 1.17 dev cycle and further. From 1.12 to 1.14, we had a major goal in releasing on Steam, which we achieved thanks to Vultraz's leadership during that time. Since then,...

Understandable, but one disadvantage of Discord is that it is private
communication. It kind of is at odds with an open webforum discussion.

This is an alternate account of my main account, momom2.
I tried logging into the official server, but it didn't work. It gives me an incorrect password error - I tried copy-pasting and copying by hand, neither worked. I'm supposed to input my forum password, right?

Last post

I don't understand what exactly the problem is.

You create an account. You log into the multiplayer and it works. Then what? You save the password and at some point the saved password does not work anymore? And if you retype your password it does not work either?

Hi,
Spent ages investigating unit variation not working as I expected on v1.19.23 on Windows.

Issue
Created clone of Mage then added variation to same (added a melee attack).
Worked OK for male version, didn't on female.

Relevant code
1: Apply variation 2: unit_type
Resolution
Works as expected...

Last post

It's not clear to me why you use [variation] at all. [female] is already a variation. The usual way is to have a unit type config that describes the male version and a [female] variation but you can just as well have a [male] variation. If your variation has nothing to do with gender you use...

Hello,

I am a great fan of the game, and I like it so much that I decided to make a couple of scenarios that utilize, to the fullest, the original mechanics of the game, as opposed to implementing new mechanics. I took inspiration from the old Myth series from Bungie, and I am hoping to recreate...

First post

Hello,
If I use [effect) ] to apply a variation to a unit this seems to lose any existing [effect]s based on my limited testing.

Hopefully I'm doing something stupid so here's my test code that adds a second melee attack: ... and the variation (long version, I've tried trimming various elements).

Last post

That's expected. Applying an effect in [modify_unit] is a "temporary" change that will be reverted when the unit is rebuilt. And the unit will be rebuilt when the variation is changed. If you want the effects to persist, you need to wrap them in an [object].
