Sorry for the very late response. I somehow forgot about this. :/ Found only a few errors and it works now for me. - OnKilled and OnCapture only use a single actor as input. So you don't need to use "RadarDome = { RadarDome }" and "ForwardCommand = { SovietForwardCommand }" (and shouldn't use it her...

I quickly made https://resource.openra.net/maps/24016/ . Hope that works for everyone.

Unfortunately you can't simply turn that off in the settings. I assume it has something to do with how replays work. Those store all orders the players gave during the match. Those need to be "replayed" (re-given) in exact order to simulate the right game state, so we can't simply skip some of them....

Afaik the feature is hold up by a rewrite of the forums to support user authentication.

I don't know if this is a bug or intentional feature but it's bullshit, unrealistic and I hate it. This is a bug, yes: OpenRA/OpenRA#11265 cant understand why there have been so many patches but that shit isnt still fixed. The fix is unfortunately not trivial and we're low on manpower anyway. Progr...

Maybe answering this is a bad idea. It'll just feed the trolls and prolong the discussion without any gain. I'd probably feel bad for the people wanting a reasonable conversation if I didn't answer, though. Sorry in advance for the wall of text. However, those questions got asked often lately, so I ...

Why do you have that "self.World.Map.Contains(self.Location)" check? It shouldn't be necessary.

Just to make one thing clear: After all, the change was implemented to make it easier to deal with basepushes. No, it was not. To quote pchote, nerfing basepushing was only a "side effect" of that long-planned change. It simply wasn't done earlier for technical reasons (e.g. the AI had trouble with ...

Do you have the map uploaded somewhere?

It sounds like the AI is trying to attack something which cannot be reached. You can try enabling the "Bot Debug Messages" (Settings > Advanced) to see what is going on.

It looks like you never revoke the condition when unloading. You should try using the INotifyAddedToWorld interface for that (which can also replace the revoking in INotifyCreated).

Maybe you could even have a mod launcher with a "market place" where custom mods could be hosted for browsing and easily downloaded/update/uninstalled from (almost like the way steam works). Yeah, I also like the idea of an "external mod chooser". Unfortunately it doesn't seem to be well received b...

I added a link to https://github.com/OpenRA/OpenRA/wiki (for now).

Ah right. I guess we're fine with lower-case names then.

Just a side note (so you guys aren't surprised again ): pchote/Sleipnir proposed OpenRA/OpenRA#14155 for the release coming after the next release. The Pull Request has already been merged. Feel free to continue discussing though, we have plenty of time left if we wanted to change it again.

But what about referring to units and structures? Should we say "A Mobile Flak" or a "mobile flak"? We're not consistent in that regard esp. in inter-article links. I think the latter form makes more sense. In the game world, a "mammoth tank" is just a noun, like apples. Hm, it is a noun yes, but i...
