Re: Mod: C&C: Combined Arms

I might try change AI factories to the TD production model, while keeping player factories the same. Thus letting them pump out units faster. (Units from every factory/barracks) Might make it harder Still won’t solve the horrible pathing & indecisiveness... (especially air units) The amount of times...

Re: Mod: C&C: Combined Arms

Just a heads up - if you are experiencing a lot of crashes, try disabling the “Hardware Cursors” checkbox in the options menu. This is a temporary fix till I find out what is causing it & can release an update. Alright i will jot down what map and factions i was playing as. As of what i can remember...

Re: Mod: C&C: Combined Arms

Hey thanks for playing / testing it, I have another crash report related to “Hardware Cursors” so you could try play with that enabled or disabled in the options menu & let me know if it crashes. (Selecting units etc) If you don’t get crash logs, if you could you still note things like what map it w...

Re: Hijacking husks

In the original husks didn’t exist...

If he did hijack husks instead surely he would be a “Salvager” not a “Hijacker”

Re: Thoughts from a player playing Red Alert for a couple of months

Another solution to the chrono-MCV issue could be that we disallow deploying the chronoed MCV until it is teleported back, which is relatively easy to do and the requirements from the engine side are a lot easier to implement as well (it only requires a ChronoshiftCondition property to Chronoshifta...

looks good to me, when at full health and damaged shouldnt have shadow under whole bridge ?
Thanks, I'm not sure.. if you go by the tree shadow's (right side & long) the sun is low & in the west (off to the left of the screen) So I think the sunlight would hit under the bridge.

Beta Terrain & Extra Tiles

Hey guys I took some time to make/remake the TD beta bridge as a functioning bridge. I felt I had to change the colour because I'm using it in my mod & the terrain is in RA palette. (The RA palette misses a lot of cool blue / greys so the bridge ends up looking purple) I chose light grey to try & re...

Re: 2018 RA Balance

5. Rework the behavior from a capture to a repair: the same way that you can only repair your own / team member's vehicles and that engineers can repair your own / allied buildings, only allow repairs on your own / team member's husks. They would then go back to the original owner, not the player w...

Re: If hinds were returned to soviet...

Better use a new model for the Ussr transportport heli, like the Mil MI-26, which was a very heavy lifting helicoper (#vehicle-transport ;) ). Using the “chinook” model would likely lead to the hind issue all over again... Well I'd say there is a general reluctance to add new artwork to the game......

Re: 2018 RA Balance

4. Give capturing to engineer & mechanic

In my mod I made all husks crushable with tanks, that way you can deny captures. (Not sure if offical oRA still only has the Mammoth being able to crush them.)

Re: If hinds were returned to soviet...

Consider the following: we added support for strafing weapons a few releases ago, but making Yaks strafe was rejected because it would have broken its role as a flying sniper unit. This was a real shame because strafing is a fun mechanic that is completely missing in OpenRA's RA, and it matches exp...

I guess it was to just add a level of detail to the game.

They are unnecessary from a gameplay perspective, but you would have non-combat units working in a real conflict.
