Anyone seen hedge?

robo crows don't seem to be working on reina.
Also was wondering if he had time to put up reine blanche with the reina version, only a lot faster/easier to make things.

Crows are still being set up last I heard [which was a few weeks before the world went down].

world's been back up a bit now, it just went down for a day when i rebooted and had to take off real quick :]

crows.. yeh. i think mit's still sorting some of that out.


reine.... i could prolly do that. what i think i'm gonna do instead is take a forum-wide request on what things are really sticking people roja-wise. maybe make all building materials about 25% easier to build if nothing new gets built in the near future and no one mentions they're actively workin on something.

atm mostly it's just noobs coming in, doin some transfers and havin a bit of chat as far as i can tell. which is cool, but seeing as i haven't seen any building-completed messages or even notification that foundations have been lain, it's probably safe to tamper a bit.

i've built a couple of important foundations...
the problem is there is a lack of players with enough experience or patience :), "says theseer".

Also when a building is sold off after 4 days..being that the planet is in Tau Ceti newbs tend to come through.. buy them all and they become useless hence we can't build anything atm.

i think the setting on reina are ok, it's supposed to last until feb 06 so it will take time.

What we do need though is a simalar world which only lasts 2-3 weeks. Using the same or simalar dbat with a smaller map would be good though, with faster paced building and production and most importantly, some nice defensive buildings. I miss the fast paced kill or be killed, can't miss 10 mins type world.

the prob is mainly that defenses are still pretty buggy, and there's no way to prevent enemies from building one right next to your house.

if there was a way to say, only be able to build defenses within or near your birthtown or open country, but not any non-birth town, that might work.

yeah, lack of players is prolly an issue at the moment. if i ever got time to finish reine properly, i'd do the promo thing. I've been away from the game a good month and a half though, and my memory of settings is kind of fading a bit. no doubt some of 'em have changed since then too.

i think the mechs are currently busted for instance. something in the turret behavior changed recently.

i'll have to think of somethin :]

you could perhaps use buildzones to limit placement of defenses? not exactly what you want but itd work-ish. givin an option to limit placement of defenses to home or birth towns is easy enough, will add that in today.
I believe the actual defenses themselves mostly work now.

dont think the mechs are totally broken. foolis one with just the vertical turret works a treat.

Mech weapons seem to have stopped working for some combinations of turrets and control modes. Control mode 12 seems ok with weapons, but mode 11 doesn't like firing em; similarly, my jeep with turreted MGs (ctrl mode 1) has stopped firing too. Haven't had time to investigate it properly tho. This just a symptom of legacy turret settings stuff?
