    Moves and GameSpeeds

    I noticed a very brief discussion between Recza and Afforess about Blitz speed being poor speed to play. One reason Recza gave me a pause and another crazy idea. Why not scale moves for gamespeeds? The faster the game, the more move points your units get? Maybe every two speeds? Again...

    Map scripts for BarbCics On Games

    I noticed Hemispheres map script was scarce in resources then realized it was because of ten preset civs I set up in Custom Game. However, that's terrible for emerging barbarians growing into civs. So any recommended map script that ignore preset civs numbers and just put resources in...

    Civics Improvements Suggestions

    I think the civics are over-complex and maybe hurting AI. So I'm making few suggestions. They are generalized for now. I'll be more specific as the discussion evolve. 1. I think Government and Power categories should merge because separately they looks really weird. 2. I like...

    Game Speeds and Teching

    I'm playing with Eternity gamespeed. I know, I know! I'm hardcore :lol:! Anyway, I'm curious whether amount given by Research in game through Commerce or Research in plots and buildings is scaled for game speeds already? If yes, then I'm fine: I'm just paying the price of playing Eternity...

    Religion Decay

    I saw no clear and detailed desc of this game option. So a question: suppose I have religious buildings in a city then later in a game, I switch to atheist civic, then what happens to that building?

    Sulfur Resource...

    I posted a post about this in Beta thread but feel that it is better discussed in a thread. I read through the unitinfos file and found that only Arbui(whatwhever) and Musketman units require Sulfur! How bizarre that is! Not to mention almost game unbalancing in a certain perspective...

    How to Make a Cursor Smaller?

    I finally have touch screen monitor for my computer. It's cool. However the problem comes up when playing my game. The cursor is too big and when I touch my screen, the tip of the cursor actually touch above where I want to touch. So I'm going to test this idea: make the cursor smaller...

    New Unit Upgrade Paths

    I don't like how units upgrade. Moreover, AI (either here or anywhere else) don't manage complex options well (Afforess, correct me if I'm worng.) So I want to create a new upgrade path for some of units in RoM that have confusing paths. I said some because not all are confusing. Second...

    This is a tentative first post. It will go two directions... #1 Most people agree that there are just too many resources that mess up map making. So we discuss what reources to crop out of RoM:AND. Be warned, it will cost a massive time of searching down xml files that refer to these...
