Did you know that Ulaan means red and is a left-over from communist Mongolia?

No, but that's extremely interesting, thank you! A quick Google search tells me 'baatar' is 'hero'; 'red hero'.

 

[Leoreth]

I think I even found this out when researching Mongolia for the 1700 AD scenario.

Ulan Bataar and Ulan Ude can be founded by Mongolia. If thy are communists leftovers, then these names should be removed at least in the middle game.

I think an indepedent Erkuu should be there and Russians know about it (but not China).
City ruins in Karakorum.

New commit: Fixed calculation of number of cities maintenance when losing or acquiring cities.

The fix ended up being relatively straight forward, but I don't understand why it really was necessary. Or rather, why this hasn't been in the code already and why it has ever worked before. Or what I might have done to break it.

So I can't fully rule out there will be weird side effects for city maintenance.

 

[merijn_v1]

In the last revision, you added a return statement in stability.py right after "def checkTurn(iGameTurn)". Doesn't this disable the stability entirely?

 

[Leoreth]

Oh yeah, that was supposed to be removed before committing

 

[srpt]

haha I'm glad I'm not the only one who does stuff like that

 

[Leoreth]

My release procedures are pretty much a mess, I often commit stuff without checking if there's a typo in the Python code that prevents the game from even loading

I think it has to do with the fact that I often commit around midnight.

Okay, so it turns out that as expected, the reason was that I was dumb while being a smartass. It's weird how you can spend three hours trying to figure out a bug one day without accomplishing much and then you find the reason first thing the next day.

In any event, I have rolled back the fix from yesterday and a stupid change I made a while ago that ruined maintenance calculation. In my defense, who would have thought that BtS resets the maintenance of destroyed cities by setting their population to 0 before deleting them.

 

[calad]

It is a good idea to have a break sometimes.

 

[Leoreth]

I run almost exclusively on coffee and mate at this point, so that is definitely not a good idea

 

[Oregon Lee]

Have ye tried Kombucha?

 

[Leoreth]

Nope, is it caffeinated?

 

[Oregon Lee]

Yes, because it's a tea that's fermented. It has probiotics and lactic acid!

 

[Leoreth]

Sounds like a green marketing wet dream I'll keep my eyes open for it.

 

[Oregon Lee]

This is from a local company company.

 

[Leoreth]

My local is a different local. Might not even have spread here ...

 

[BenZL43]

This one from Netherlands. Might be available in your country

Spoiler :

 

[Oregon Lee]

Yeah that looks good!

It looks like I have something to try out.
