@lord_asmodeus said in Ladder Maps: If map pool team cant be asked to select actual good maps in a range can we atleast have a button to select that removes the ability for lower ranked players to match us. Meaning as 1800 I dont get 1500 retard t1 land spam. Make it so the button limits to -100 below rather than 300 below u want to get land spammed by a 2100 rather than a 1500? lol

Open Palms is actually a good example of a flatty map, I was very surprised when I looked around and saw how flat the map actually was. The fact that the "mountains" to the side are snowcapped make you think they're tall but they're not!

Thanks for your responses and all your awesome work. I'm just coming back to the game this year after not playing since 2009! And it is just sooooo good! @ftxcommando said in Suggestion: Map preferences for ladder: end user experience of having to monthly fill out a preference list It could be non mandatory and the effect of the preference list could just be a minor weight against the existing algo, like %30 or something. So the user experience would the same for noobs and anyone that is just happy with any map. @magge said in Suggestion: Map preferences for ladder: I personally would like a 1on1/4on4 random map only ladder. I think that was tested for one week and was a success as far as I can remember. I love this idea!

@teralitha said in Is It Me, Or Has T3 Artillery Become OP: @jcvjcvjcvjcv Yeah whats really happening there, is that your arty is out of range. Thats why you cant target the structures. You imagine the T3 arty has unlimited range, but it really doesnt have that much range. No

@magge thanks for your work sheriff

@magge said in key to abort commander upgrade: It is not possible to abort a specific ACU update from his order-queue, right? The right-click does not work on him for me, unlike on the fabs. You always need to abort every command from the ACU, which is sometimes really annoying. Correct. I think that was done as a shortcut/workaround for the problem that getting T2 or T3 upgrade makes T2/T3 buildings available, and the FAF devs didn't or couldn't make it so those impermissible orders get canceled when the upgrade drops out (except you might not want to cancel them if, for example, you selected an upgrading ACU + 3 T3 engineers and told them to make a T3 pgen, canceling the ACU's upgrade shouldn't stop those engineers from making the pgen, so it's complicated whether you want to cancel orders or not) And also that some upgrades are dependent on other upgrades, like if you queue up first shield + second shield on an Aeon ACU. And then you cancel first shield, it would have to also cancel second shield. And rather than try to code all that out (and deal with the problem of mods like BlackOps or Nomads adding new ACU upgrades dependent on each other) they only allowed one way to cancel an upgrade.

Single Car have way higher range than restos. It also deals enormous damage when groundfired. Meaning that your ASF can then just mop up the fight and you have total air control. And if not, then you can keep on pinging the enemy ASF and use Czar like a defensive gunship. Or just yeet it at enemy. Whatever you prefer.

More advanced as an addition: If you're Aeon, you can build subs instead of frigs. Cuz: Aeon Frigs suck Your opponent builds counter-subs at one point -> You just stop building subs -> Their subs are basically useless against your frigs and your destro just rapes them However make sure to vary that strategy and not always go for subs as Aeon.

It is not possible to determine the reclaim value of a unit. Take Loki as an example, it adjusts the reclaim value by script and there's no way to know that this map (or any other map / mod) did that, at any point in time. Mechanics like overkill have impact on the reclaim value too. It would, at best, confuse players and at worst the system would lie to players. The real issue is that people consider Loki being 'ancient' to be a good argument to keep it in the pool, while the map is confusing to every (new) player that are just applying what other maps taught them.

Cool

A good approach, in my opinion, would be to gain experience in the subject matter before making any tutorials about it.

I think there's been adequate discussion on the topic

Stealing my code bruh :harold:

@arma473 I found it using that search query of old games. The map name is Spiritum, from 2018. I searched for it by name in the maps and found it. Thanks.

Thanks

I'm down!

I have updated the first guide to show mirrored lanes, and be a little more concise. Barring any specific interest, the second guide will be the last. Suggestions are welcome of course. Otherwise, enjoy!
