New EitB game (Big PBEM/PB)

[Aurorarcher]

Aye, I've picks in my thread.

[Qgqqqqq]

[REDACTED] was asking about v12.1 changes in his thread, so I did a diff on their respective Assets directory to see what exactly had changed. One surprising thing I saw was that Tsunami is back to range 2, which I hadn't remembered seeing mentioned anywhere. Sure enough, after looking for the official 12.1 changelog that isn't listed:

http://www.realmsbeyond.net/forums/showt...#pid597865

So, is Tsunami actually back to range 2, or is that a mistake?

This is a mistake.

I'm not sure I trust v12.1 tbh. This probably means that the base file that RefSteel used was not from v12, but from v9 (or earlier, actually). This could easily stealth change a number of things that players only find about 50-100t into the game.

As a result, I'm going to work through and implement the v12.1 changes myself. These are:

Quote:
Changes for v1:
FT goes to +25% trade route, from +50%
Remove the +1% food from FT (Bug)
Vampires goes to 5/5 str, from 6/5
Governors Manors now at Mathematics
River of Blood now requires Feudalism, gives +3/-3 pop
Warrens goes to -1gpt Clarification that this is instead of being +10% maintenance

I will do this on Tuesday (my time), and should be done, tested, and released in approximately 48hrs.


Sorry for the difficulty and delay. Also, as I'm one of those who has yet to release my picks, though those will be posted in my thread shortly.

[GermanJoey]

Ok, thanks Q. Let's plan to start on Tuesday then; that means everybody needs to have their picks in by Monday night or I'm picking for you.

(also, if you submit less than 8 picks, then I'm filling in the rest of your list with random picks as well)

[Aurorarcher]

Hmm, my v12.1 has Tsunami range of 1 at least. Hovering over the spell it reads as 2 range but it works as 1 range anyway.

Yes, the SpellInterface.py file, which actually implements the spell, has a range of 1. The CIV4SpellInfos.xml file specifies a range of 2, which causes the error in the description of the spell.

I will feel happier if Q looks at the files, since there may well be other inconsistencies which do make a difference in the game. Thanks for volunteering, and thanks to Joey for checking.

[Aurorarcher]

Yup, safer overall if Q checks them.

Picks posted in my threaded (and PM'd).

Thanks for the 12.1 double check Q (and GJ).
