The short answer is that there is nobody knows. Porting a mission isn't a simple copy and paste job, it requires a lot of time translating each stage of the mission over into lua and custom rules; there may also be special behaviour that was only used in the missions that needs to be ported over, to...

They do pretty good damage but they take far too much to make them worth it.

Just throwing ideas around here, why not remove/extremely reduce the detection range of all naval vehicles and then make sub-cloaking a timed upgrade activated by deploying them.

Firing could still only be done from above the water but it makes the cloak scale with the user's ability.

I thought if you put it in the nuke silo / iron curtain / chronosphere, it would reset the timer, but this is only something I vaguely remember somebody saying long ago, maybe it was just a suggestion. IIRC FiveAces said that it may be the case during one of his casts but i think he also said he wa...

Naval gets you a sonar pulse - a support power that allows to you ping water for subs.
Radar dome regenerates the shroud for the opposing player.
Missile silo isn't a thing, neither is conyard or service depot.

This is how traits are removed throughout the OpenRA codebase. I don't know if your method works but this is how it's done everywhere else.

OpenRA Balance Council Trial

Introduction Hello everyone. Recently a post about a "balance council" got some attention on the forum. This isn't the first time it's been brought up. Last year Anjew brought it up to pchote in the IRC but nothing came of it. In the last few months the OpenRA Discord Server has taken off and now h...

Changes can't be made until people can agree on them and the changes that are most needed are always the ones least agreed on.

The median time of matches for each map would be better than an average. Exceptional times (like the 4 second forfeit or cheeses) will skew averages greatly.

That said, it's awesome that you put this together :D

Dunno if feedback is wanted ATM but I may aswell say it before I forget. I think the map contest should've been scheduled in the middle of the RAGL off season since everyone at the moment is practicing for RAGL and I've barely seen a contest map being played. If it was further away a lot more playe...
