OpenRA

I agree that the different damage per angle can be seen as a problem, but at the same time I feel that it's part of the airstrike's style. Airstrikes are messy in anyway and rely on angles. If you want specific, use the superweapon.

But I do like to think of alternatives, so here goes:

An option ...

Yes! Awesome. The randomness of the radar-display is also cool. Tbh, Total Annihilation had a lot of great features that could really improve a lot of RTS games. Like the airplanes and bombers for example. Aaanyways.

Nice work Frenzy! Atleast now the idea is out there and hopefully it will be ...

Absolutely stunning map! I really like the well balanced but completely random feel of the layout. Not too much tiberium, some choke points, lots of trees and different colors.

Best part tho is the realistic geologic vibe of the rock-works / ridges between the spawn-points and corner expensions ...

Another way to make the A10's and Parabombs / drops more solid is by letting them always fly in from the same angle, which would be closest to your own base. Or the map-edge that's closest to the Comms centre.

This way you as a player can actually somewhat time the arrival of the airstrike. IE ...

This is a really strong suggestion tbh. (see quote) Make the radar work more realistically AND useful. So when a radar is built, it pops-up the mini-map. The radar shows unit-movement on the minimap. Multiple radars in multiple bases to extend the range. Plus Stealth units (not subs) show up on the ...

Thank you Graion.

Based on your advice I've been playing around with PlayerColorPalette but with no luck at all. I either get an error that CalitzMulti0.pal is missing or all my buildings are drawn on the Calitz palette (the TD Temperat palette.)

I also looked at the post you referred to and been ...

Yeah a tesla boat, haha

I was thinking of trying to put a M60 on the front section of the Submarine. Then make that M60 able to target air, like in the Red Sky mission. So it won't be a strong AA but atleast something.

Also Soviet players will need them late game to escort missile subs.

I know ...

Thanks a lot Abc !

Went to play with your code this evening. Got the building to appear in game, without crashing, but I had to add in the TD palette. I also had to do some fine-tuning on the idle and damaged idle, but that's looking good now.

So now the building is there, but it's not taking on ...

ah yeah I know that option. But I meant for a more location specific way to select infantry. So incase I want my blob of E1, E2, E3 to move forward fast, while tanks stay.

Also the shift-click is screenwide, which sometimes can be a problem, where my ore-field guards should not join the horde into ...

Love these large maps! All got great design and playability. I actually voted for Hypothermia because of it's complexity and yes, it's nice the way Naval is implemented. Btw, the cliff work, where sea and landcliffs are placed pretty realistic is nicely done.

If my internet connection would allow ...

Nice job SoScared. Never to early to make some changes 8) .

Just some thoughts I had last night:

1). I agree that Russia needs an AA for their naval fleet, but it's a bit cheesy for the missile sub to shoot it's missiles at airplanes too... Would be nice to put an AA gun on the regular sub? Like ...

Hi Kyrylo,

I played a few games on Thai Bay, against AI and think it's a nice map. Could we do a (few) 1vs1 on Thai Bay, maybe on monday evening?

Hi, hope anyone can help me out with SHP questions. Want to add some TD buildings and units to a RA map.

Trying to add a GDI War Factory. I have looked into a few modded maps, but cannot seem to get any further.

I've got 4 .shp files that I renamed to GRGE (as in Garage)

GRGE.shp
GRGE2.shp (the ...

Wanted to leave a positive note here...

I played my first online match yesterday, RA in Orelord. Tried to use all the experience I got from watching FiveAces and SoScareds streams, but got beaten. Really enjoyed it tho.

Best thing was that when I started to lose buildings, the opposite player ...

Great list for a map-design framework, just one missing:

- Balance chokepoints vs open routes.

One thing I learned since is that chokeyness is a real thing and should be considered. This was the one thing I did not do and had a real impact on the maps I designed.

I will definitely rework some ...
