Code:

   
     k:=0;
     case Gd.landsize of
     LandMinimal : k:=1;
     LandTiny : k:=3;
     else k:=6;
     end;

     for i:=1 to nofplanes do begin
     // Weak Lairs
     for j:=1 to 2*k+trunc(planeratio[i]*12) do
     if i=1 then GenerateRandomLair(i,100+30*(random(20)+1)) else
                     GenerateRandomLair(i,100+30*(random(30)+1));
     // Strong Lairs
     for j:=1 to k+trunc(planeratio[i]*15) do
     if i=1 then GenerateRandomLair(i,250+50*(random(60)+1)) else
                     GenerateRandomLair(i,250+50*(random(70)+1));
     end;

Do you use Pascal as programming language?

[Seravy]

Yes.

[vicwaberub]

Nice. Pascal is rarely seen. But Knights Province ( https://www.knightsprovince.com/ ) use Delphi. I didn't know that was possible. Impressive.
Is the original code Pascal too?

[Seravy]

There was no original code, that's why I had to make this.
Delphi is basically Pascal, the windows version of it.

Wow, this is giving me flashbacks, my first coding class was in Pascal. I had no idea it was still in use outside of legacy systems.

[Seravy]

I think you're misunderstanding.
I consider Delphi = Pascal.
I am using Delphi, is there even any other forms of Pascal in existence that run on windows? At least, I haven't heard of one.
Old Borland Pascal has some windows modules for windows 3.1 but yeah, that's not useful anymore.

[roarmalf]

That makes sense, the code snippet gave me flashbacks

[vicwaberub]

Ich habe in den 90ern mit Pascal und Pascals Nachfolger zusammengearbeitet: Oberon. Mit der 'legendären' Oberon-Oberfläche (alles, was Sie sehen, sind Funktionen und alle drei Maustasten in JEDER Kombination haben einen Effekt): https://habrastorage.org/files/5b7/318/8...e3a557.jpg

Gestern habe ich einen alten Thread aus dem Fallen Enchantress Beta-Forum über Kampfmechanik mit vielen interessanten Dingen, Moral, Immunitäten usw. gelesen: https://forums.elementalgame.com/367216/...scussdeath -oder-mindestens-Kampf # Antworten

Ich wünsche mir, dass ich im MoM flankiere: Für jede Einheit neben der angegriffenen wird die Verteidigung um eins verringert.
Benachbarte feindliche Einheiten unterstützen sie und erhöhen die Verteidigung um eins, wenn zwei oder mehr Einheiten angreifen.
Infolgedessen werden billige Einheiten wie Speermänner interessanter.
