OpenRA

I am modding Dune 2000. Just for myself and just for fun. Rarely. From time to time. Actually I registered here in „OpenRA Resource Center“ (where users can share his maps)... but practically I nothing upload there. I have several interesting ideas, I suppose. But, as you say: this is a niche topic ...

i want to add breifing text

In the file:
rules.yaml

Something like this (in the yaml code): where \n is sign for new line.

You must write all briefing text in one line here.

and also adding color to the players

I asked nearly the same question, some time ago.
Here is an answer.

"Color in missions"

Hm... I tried to convert mission with ice on the map, i. e. "Bloxice" tileset.
Unfortunately it choose wrong tileset.
It is interesting to read explaining from developers.

If there is no one better than me here, in the topic, still (since yesterday)... I mean the developers of OpenRa and so on... Then I'll have to do it, a humble user. (oh, with my pooor English, with vocabulary... a dictionary, I mean) . The dune2k editor had a nice automated border editing feature t...

Good manual for modding. For OpenRa.

Lua:

Yaml:

Some basics of the Lua.
Tick function, etc.

If it's still interesting, I made new map. Player is Harkonnen. In Lua. Sorry, topicstarter Carnildohtar , — it's much shorter and easier for me, than in Yaml. :-) https://resource.openra.net/maps/63203/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------...

i thank Adrian for the help and invaluable insight You're welcome. Modding is a kind of game also, for me. An entertaiment, when I have free time. i have managed to make the sietch work like the atreides palace, with the correct sprite, and for all three houses. It would be interesting for me to se...

As for the owner (set to Atreides) does that mean that if i play with an Atreides opponent the spawned fremen belongs to him, and are no more enemy to all? In this case — yes. I made (quickly) most simple variant. Maybe I will think later about separate faction for Fremen. ----- The fremen appear e...

As a solution option. Just simplified general idea. You can create Fremen with command Create . (!) Without any resources! So for player side it is too imbalanced. ------------------------------------- You can write in lua file something like this. In Tick function. -- my creation of the fremen if D...

Assigning them to a player I think would be too unbalancing and breaking off the lore flavour. I think so too. That's why I asked that question. It would be great to have them belong to a neutral and hostile to all faction Now I understand your aim. I'll think and answer later. About palace . Maybe...

(...) to make the otherwise useless sietch spawn fremen who will attack random player (player or AI).

Actually, it can be done in a completely different way.
Do you interested just to find error with Palace only?

UPD. Are Fremen must belong to player or to enemy?

Actually this command ("remap") is mysterious for me.
It does not work in any variants.
So I am curious already.

That's why it is interesting just to see ANY really working example.

Just write: “It works at my computer”

What can I use against ants in RA?
I mean absolutely everything, that I can find in "Map Editor".

It looks like "Tesla coil" works good enough.
