Current (SVN) development discussion thread

It triggers the baby boom random event. DoW on independents may also cause “you declared war on our friends”.
 
Something that's bothered me since vanilla RFC: why is Eastern France historical for the Vikings but not Normandy, which was actually conquered by Vikings?
 
That is terrible design. And besides, where are those little notifiers that had little convex or concave graphics?

You mean the stability parabolas?

I'm on the latest version and they're still here for me.
 
In the scoreboard, if you don't turn them off.

I did not.

Important part bolded.

I just used chipotle and then Alt+z. Besides, the civ I started with didn't have it either.

Is it 703? Then something is definitely wrong with my game.

All the numerals have been replaced with white bars in my latest try. I'm just going to forget about SVN.
 
New commit:
- added UHV goal titles
- minor bugfixes
 
By bugging people to do it for you, presumably.

When are you going to get over your dickbag phase and become useful again? I didn't accuse you of being tone-deaf or of using Baba Yetu because you knew it would annoy the heck out of me, so kindly return the favor.

I'm not here to be useful to you. Grow up.
 
Speaking of Baba Yetu, the arrangement on iTunes that is part of Calling all Dawns is much better than the one that comes with the game IMO. Either that or the arrangement used for VGL. I am also a professional chorister/part-time composer, so I think my musical opinion might be useful.

I'll have to say the same thing to you.

Any criticism towards your new stability system has been either ignored or arrogantly turned down. Needless to say, many people found it incomplete and arbitrary. Maybe you ought to give it another thought and see if improvements could be made. Currently it takes a lot away from the replayability.
 
I admit that Leoreth sounds a bit harsh at times, from what I've seen. But he is right. Perhaps he doesn't want to change anything? This is his mod after all, and we are 'lucky' that we're able to play it. He, presumably, makes the mod for himself, for his own enjoyment. If he'd put a 1 hammer costing ICBM available with Agriculture in-game, eh, if he likes that, who am I to complain? I'd get this mod and remove that ICBM. Although I recognise changing the Python stability code is harder than modding out a unit. Still, if he likes this code but you really want the old code back, you could try and eventually succeed.
 
No, I'm sorry, but it hasn't. I have made an entire thread dedicated to discussing it and participated extensively in it. I have replied to most posts that made original points I haven't addressed yet. I have asked for data and demonstrations of problematic aspects for which I have only received vague worries and anecdotal support. I gladly repeat that request even though it is still standing anyway.

I have said time and again that I can't change a game system based on individual opinions. You don't like the system and that is your right, but the more you only express your dislike but don't supply me with objective data that allows me to verify your qualms, the more I feel inclined to disregard your complaints as a subjective opinion. I'm entirely open to be proven wrong, but for that I do need data.

I know you're not that active here anymore so you might have missed it, but a couple of weeks ago we were talking about the expansion stability of civs with a small core, and someone uploaded a save where they had a roughly historical Dutch empire and a rather negative expansion score with the comment that that could not be right. And in that case I was actually able to verify this, because I had the save, and it turns out that his observation was true! I could immediately address the problem by tweaking some of the parameters influencing the expansion score.

I hope that illustrates the difference of constructive and unconstructive criticism. By which I don't mean that criticism that is unconstructive in that regard is invalid or ignored, just that it doesn't actually help me to address it in any way.


That being said, I hope you're not aware of the context of my quote in your post. Because if you are, I would be rather offended to be compared to someone who stumbles into this subforum every couple of months, treats everyone as her servants to whose help she is entitled, and then proceeds to spit into the face of everyone actually stupid enough to help her because she is actually too lazy to make use of the help she has been given.
 
Sorry to interrupt, but what do you think of the other Baba Yetu arrangements, Leoreth?

something is glitchy with this forum
