Wow, seems like a big jump in features and improvements! Good job!
Re: Release-20180923 - Discussion
Well, I would recommand "new feature" for the chronoshift rather than "fix". In the overall, majority of the players were ok with the way it worked and all the surrounding gameplay.
Account are a nice addition and the fix on the latency on the order commands is really the best improvement in the 3 previous release imo. Good job on those.

Commandos in Tiberium Dawn need to not prevent you from ordering the rest of your selected unit to attack something. Please fix this.

I see harvester microing is still a skill and therefore a feature.
Re: Release-20180923 - Discussion
Great work guys. Really nice additions and reasonable fixes present.
Re: Release-20180923 - Discussion
Im really exited about what comes further out of the authentication + badges. Its a long requested feature that now made it into the engine ... and im pretty sure it will spice things up, potentially give us more players (therefor contributers, developers ...)
the changelog is awesome, you can see that contributers have spent some (free) time to improve the engine "as always" ... and i admire the dedication (i always have)
Good Work !

Hi all,
First of all well done on this release, looks very nice!
Then a question;
I read this in the Changelog, so took it into account when I chronoed an MCV somewhere earlier tonight.
However when the chrono elapsed, my MCV received a 100% penalty, instead of 50% (the green bar just went all the way down until the MCV was destroyed). Not sure if I'm misinterpreting something or if there's a bug in that part?

Code: Select all
Construction yards deployed from a Chronoshifted MCV receive a 50% damage penalty when the timer elapses
Re: Release-20180923 - Discussion
Can you please post a replay showing this?
Re: Release-20180923 - Discussion
Thanks! I've confirmed that this is a real bug, and filed #15641.

Re: Release-20180923 - Discussion
For the sake of being complete;
I played the same map again yesterday and chronoed an MCV to two different (and other than before) places on the map. The 50% penatly was incurred and things went exactly as written in the changelog. However, when I chronoed an MCV to that small 'island' again, I got the 100% penalty. So the bug seems to be specific to that location of the map.
Re: Release-20180923 - Discussion
Yeah that's it. It's doing that with anything that can't attack buildings; so Engineers, Commandos, Mobile SAM, Civs, and Medics will cause this to happen.lawANDorder wrote: ↑Tue Sep 25, 2018 4:50 pmhttps://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/issues/13723 could be related.
