Current (SVN) development discussion thread

Babylonia currently gets the 20%-culture-thing-advantage in the tiles surrounding Sur, making life quite rough on AI Phoenicia. Bug or WAD?

Also, Silk Route spread to Knossos, is that intentional?

I also seem to have a really hard time keeping the stability score up in the foreign category - just had a recent game where I was at minus 63, even though I had no wars going on, and only had a few ever, currently OB with almost everyone and two vassals; it is maybe a bit too difficult as of now. Or maybe I just suck - that is absolutely a possibility aswell :)
Every first contact you take a stability hit and every time you cancel borders you take a stability hit, plus a civ collapse counts as a cancel open borders
 
Having done a couple India several India runs I noticed that India does not have enough food to hit a historical percentage, also it is nowhere near as wealthy, finally it techs way slower in the beginning and finishes around normal if I'm not brutally exploiting and leveraging every little drop (but I still can't hit the population or wealth thresholds)

They have overlapping cores there. But I really should take that out for Babylonia.

Basically yes, the silk route area is a big rectangle and I didn't bother to include an exceptions array so Crete is in because Anatolia and Mesopotamia had to be in.

Yeah, I'll do something about that.

Actually after I've seen your picture in the bug reports thread I'm seriously considering to further nerf them. Was that with the 1500 BC start?

Try to pull it off, I dare you, that game was a combination of extreme luck and min-maxing the hell out of it, also I had to conquer a Persian city, a Chinese city and an Arab city for the religions. India gets strong late game, but isn't strong early game (because there are fewer ways to break it early on), most of my strength was due to classical civs getting curbstomped and me snagging a ton of classical wonders (plus super heavy use of the whip). Yes it was a 1500BC gamek, I had to reload a bunch of time so the cities wouldn't be there on spawn so I could stick my warrior there to prevent Varanasi from existing (cities can't spawn if there is a unit directly adjacent)
 
Thanks for reminding me to spawn the cities a little earlier, then ;)
 
Will the 1.8 be save-compatible with the current SVN? Also isn't it an exploit to prevent spawn of the city?

I just tried without brutally minmaxing and I can't meet the second or third UHV, I'm way behind China in the third one because their cities all have food and don't brutally overlap like in India. South India is marginally better in terms of production, but far worse in terms of food so overall the temples take forever to build, even with Hinduism, Buddhism and Zoroastrianism I can't build enough temples fast enough.

India is underpowered without extreme minmaxing and luck.
 
I'll get to give them some techs and then visit the whole thing.
 
Help!
I installed Tortoise SVN,but nothing happens!
There is no "SVN checkout"!
Please help.
:confused:
 
Did you install the correct version of Tortoise? You need 32 bit for a 32 bit system, the same for 64 bit respectively.
 
Isn't Tortoise mentioned at all in your right-click context menu?
 
Try it again later. It's a free host so it's not available all the time.
 
In my last mayan monarch game in 1130 i get the notification "a distant civilization is the first to discover liberalism"

When looking in WB it turns out to be Persia. However Persia is not control a very large portion of the world. only their core, Mesopotamia and the Levant. (the seljuks did not have change against their wallbacked musketman, however do occupy 2 cities.)

Don't know how Persia got this incredible tech rate, but it seems a little bit off-chart

In 1430 when I received my great general and effectively accomplished my UHV the info screen said not yet. that was not cool :(

btw Persia collapsed in 1250 due to Mongolia

Likely yes.

Will take care of that. Do you have a save of shortly before? Would speed the process up considerably.
 
Yes,there is!:)
Aaah!
Error!Unable to connect to a repository at URL.

:cry:

Actually, I have a feeling he's running Vista/Windows 7 and doesn't have permissions for SVN allowed on his administrator profile.
I had the same trouble too at first, as well as a couple other people.

Leoreth, can you please put this information in the header for the SVN version?
That you need to enable permissions for SVN on Vista/Windows 7?
It would stop these questions from popping up every time someone tries to install the SVN version for the first time.
 
It's easier to update one of the others, which I'll do when I have the time.
