OpenRA

Nice pixel art

Hmm, how does one install extra mods (for example, mine ) on Ubuntu? I tried simply dragging and dropping my mod into /usr/share/openra/mods/, but it says I do not have sufficient permission. But whenever I run "sudo nautilus" and DO put the file in there, the game will not even read the file when ...

Windows only?

Yes, why
Someone can say is underrated, but fakes can be useful in original RA multiplayer games.

Example: 5-6 enemy migs can destroy a const yard, so fake building can help in this and other situations.

Hmm... what about to create EMP mass weapon effects in OpenRA

may be Content/ra ?

We are waiting this for years

editing hackyai.cs ?

In Red Alert 1 AI can be simple edited in Rules.ini ... OpenRA needs STANDARDS for all modding/scripting/mapping. Even now there is a tons of incompatibility between versions, pile of bugs, e.t.c.

Yeah, same thing here on Ubuntu, with graphics of 1997 year - much usage of cpu, e.t.c.

Ok, this is one more TODO list with some things that can be discussed...
*some units or features not yet in OpenRA, but it would be possible in future.


Service depot and repairing/restoring.

-Repairs air units on service depot when they damaged.

-Repairs submarines/ships in subpens/shipyards ...

• When AI captures a building, it will sell it immediatly.

Really? I thought this is not original Red Alert AI behavior.

Anyway, this is great AI improvement, thanks

Do you remember conquer.eng file from original Red Alert 1? This file stores language strings. In OpenRA would be useful if different language strings stored in special yaml files like english.yaml, spanish.yaml e.t.c. in folder "openra/mods/ra/languages", and modders can more easily translate text ...

btw build menu needs a scrolling system cause some things not fit in menu (if there are many of them)

You can try with bots on separated-islands-maps and there are even much more lag
