3.304 Coilbeams No Longer TickleNew build! https://wiki.arcengames.com/index.php?title=AI_War_2:Finalizing_Multiplayer#3.304_Coilbeams_No_Longer_Tickle
(Reminder that if you have trouble with the build, you can always go into betas and choose most_recent_stable to go one build back. This is how I sleep at night after making some major changes.)
This one is filled with goodness:
- You can use Ctrl+1 or similar to assign the hotkeys to fleets. This has been requested for a while.
- There's a helper command that lets you rename campaigns if you want to split a campaign you're in.
- Officer fleets and spire fleets will now "Roam if Instructed" in new savegames, which is the more-expected behavior. You can still toggle it either way.
- Lots of tooltip updates! More awesomeness from NR SirLimbo, showing debuffs and buffs in a way that has never been available before.
- Fixed several threading bugs, and a bug where spire flagships could hack the ARS, and some bugs with marauders.
- Swapping fleet leaders is no longer possible, but you can swap all the ship lines in a fleet using the prior interface's location. Same general effect, but minus negative side effects.
- Fixed several bugs with beam weapon math, most notably a recent one that made spire coilbeams basically do "tickle level" amounts of damage (100x too low).
- The mod Kaizer's Marauders is now its own separate faction rather than overwriting the vanilla Marauders faction. This means you can have both on at once, or choose between them, or even see how the two of them compete with one another! This also fixed a few bugs with it. That said: This will break existing savegames that have Kaizer's Marauders in them. To finish those games, you can temporarily use the "v3.303 - Last version before the Kaizer's Marauders split" beta build in Steam. You may have to exit and restart Steam before this appears.
More to come soon.
Enjoy!
[ 2021-06-24 00:17:10 CET ] [ Original post ] AI War II is a grand strategic RTS against an overwhelming, inhuman enemy who has conquered the galaxy. The enemy has made only a single error: underestimating you.
You must steal as much technology as you can, and take enough territory to fortify your bases and launch your attacks. But every conquest you make turns the attention of the AI ever more in your direction... so choose your targets with care.
It's "a sequel to [Arcen's] enormo-space RTS AI War, which we called'one of this year's finest strategy games' back in 2009" (Tom Sykes, PC Gamer)
What's New?
We still have a lot of work to do on the game, and we're undergoing some major work with our beta testers before heading to Early Access, but a lot is already awesome:
- The game is crazy moddable.
- It's multithreaded to take full use of modern computers.
- The new 3D graphics are working out great.
- The UI has already been dramatically improved by the introduction of a tabbed sidebar in the main view, and streamlining of several other mechanics that felt very difficult in the past. More to come, there.
- We’ve got art for over 130 distinct units (not counting different mark levels), and there's more to come.
- We’ve got over 1500 lines of spoken dialogue from more than 25 actors, focusing primarily on the human side at the moment; we have a few hundred lines of AI-side taunts and chatter, some of which is recorded but just not processed yet.
- There are hundreds of high quality sound effects for a varied battlefield soundscape (with distance attenuation if you’re far away, and positional 3D audio if you’re down in the thick of it), all routed through a tuned mixer setup for optimal listening to all the various parts.
- We have a set of music from Classic that is over four and a half hours long, and the new music from Pablo is partly in, but mostly set to be mastered and integrated within the next week or two.
- There’s also a ton of map types, many of them new, and with a lot of sub-options to make them even more varied.
- And a whole lot more.
