Singleplayer 2194 Gigamap

Pap1723 · October 30, 2002, 04:41

As the playtesting on the Multiplayer version of my scenario advances, I am going to start workign on a huge singleplayer version of the scenario.

Thanks to some great ideas by Choke, I am going to be making the scenario playable by each side.

I am going to be making variable events files that will always evolve through the war based on what the computer player and the human player does. I am going to use many of the ideas pioneered by Captain Nemo in Red Front and Second Front to have an always evolving front based on cities and objectives taken over.

I am going to need a lot of help, and any ideas are greatly appreciated. If anyone has any ideas, or would like to help, please respond here.

As I said to you when I was testing the earlier version of this scenario, you need to only reveal the relevant parts of the map for each nation. Otherwise you end up watching 5-10(!) minutes worth of meaningless combat on the other side of the world.

Thanks Case.

Make sure that the map isn't all visible to all players at all times, or it becomes hell on earth to wait for each turn to finish.

Wait what do you mean not have it revealed? Would the cities still be visible?

Like the original 2194 scenario. You didn't have the entire map revealed, that way you'd only see attacks pertinent to you. It really sped the game up.

Oh man please post v0.6 here, I can't download the one at your site, it comes down corrupt!
I am currently playing v.03 singleplayer, it is sooo great!
But v0.6 sounds even better.
