Silier added a comment to D2682: [gameplay] unify hero health.

it shouldn't really matter whether they are on foot or ride a horse, chariot, camel, or elephant.
Well it matter for citizen-soldiers and champions.
Maybe they could start at 500 hp and use the same scaling as champions for example.

At first sight it looks good because it removes bunch of duplication, however it hides cost change from templates. Also it would not be shown in structure tree and right clicking to trainable unit. (Side note, I think you need to put that technology somewhere to work if I am not mistaken)

Nescio added a comment to D2674: [gameplay] make foundations not ConquestCritical.

Without this patch:

  • Conquest games are won by destroying all enemy structures and units
  • Conquest Structures games are won by destroying all enemy structures; units are ignored
  • Conquest Units games are won by destroying all enemy units; structures are ignored

Expected behaviour with this patch:

  • Conquest and Conquest Structures games: foundations are ignored
  • Conquest Units and non-Conquest games: unchanged

That should be easy to verify by running some test games.

I agree with moving persians to the persian folders, I guess if they were indeed using more horse archers than chariots then they should use that, I agree about the icon change, the specific name change, and the chariot currently cannot be trained, and will be up to the balancers to include or not.

Mar 26 2020, 9:55 PM
Nescio added a comment to D2659: [gameplay] standardize structure loot.

Thanks for reviewing this, I appreciate it!
As for gates, the <Cost> component determines how expensive it is to repair the structure, and loot is 20% of the cost. The cost is indeed lower than building a long segment and upgrading it to a gate, but I think that's justifiable and the lesser evil.
Likewise, building a village tower and upgrading it to a town tower is more expensive than waiting and building a town tower directly.

Oops, missed that one, will correct, thanks for pointing that out!

The new patch looks to work fine, just tested it.

No errors, warnings, or unexpected AI behaviour? Could you describe what you tested and how exactly? Also maybe update this patch's summary and test plan.
At the very least one should verify it works as intended on:

  • Conquest games
  • Conquest Units games
  • Conquest Structures games
  • non-Conquest games

As I wrote earlier, I expect this to work, but didn't test it myself.

This is bad. The warning is there for a reason: it is meaningful and helpful. It should be kept, not removed. Instead, find a way to make an exception for foundations.

Nescio added a comment to D2672: [art/actors] move siege tower and ram actors from structures to units.

Technically isn't a siege tower a "structure"?

It is an object constructed from several parts, so yes, that means it qualifies as structure, and it has a roof and walls, so it qualifies as a building too.
However, in 0 A.D. all siege entities are considered to be units (inherit from template_unit.xml, have the “Unit” class, and can move), not structures (inherit from template_structures.xml, have the “Structure” class, and can't move).
Moreover, having most siege actors in the units folder (e.g. Roman ram) but some in the structures folder (e.g. Persian ram) is both inconsistent and confusing.
