Planetary Annihilation Alpha: Build 49303

This second build is awesome.
I was a bit disturbed to report a performance issue in first build , i don't see it anymore in this second build.
49303 rocks !

More over i see so much improvement in pathfinding / flowfield.

thanks !

49303 broke aiming and hitboxes, so its not so great... And yeah, no more orange...

It's still great considering we're in early alpha stage : So much improvement achieved within a single week ....

Hitboxes should not change have changed, though aiming did. I hadn't noticed any posts about new issues, can you make one with some examples?

Orange is still in, color selection is now left click to change primary color, right click to change secondary.

I love you maaan, my orange is safe yay

About that bug, here: FS#1007

@Doud, ofcorse its great, I love Uber like you do My fps is now 20-40, not 5-20... And new maps! I will make more screenshots for my topic :3

Damn, cant wait to check these out!

Yes, sun is black for me(Radeon HD 4850). But still better than no sun. Also nice other improvements.

Have not played that much yet... and played my first "real" multiplayer match yesterday and even won - ships are nice ha ha. But the icons of ships need to be made a bit smaller. Big ships are okay but the tactical icons should be smaller(also the color of the icons... but this is in the bug tracker already I think). If possible it would be nice if they showed the direction the ship is facing(turning if the ship is turning).

This just made this build ever better

I just saw the sun, how awesome is that, and can see the planet go around.

Keeps getting better.

The performance is better for me (FPS increased from 3-4 to 9-10) but I don't know if the FPS increase is due to the planet being smaller (is the planet smaller?) or because of the performance improvement.

Floaty/sinky units, mass points and stackable buildings are what i hope gets fixed next, also units not shooting at buildings/units when you want them to.

Will make it all a lot more fun to play.


Mainly the mass points as people bases and econs are a bit silly atm, it's a turtles wet dream.

damn I thought this was fixed for a game or two

I wish the view all build orders button wasnt the Caps lock key. Its what i use for push to talk.

Luckily neutrino said we will get configurable hotkeys eventually

sweeeet

Hello

My feelings on this build :

I like the new tooltips. What happened to the medium T2 bots and vehicles?
On average seen less units being blocked but, and for me it's a big con, units in general are really less responsive than 2 builds ago. Units would stay at least a couple second without moving before starting to aknowledge new orders. This made anti artillery micro quite difficult.

New space view is neat though bugged. tends to happen when you don't expect it, though.

Keep up the good work

The t2 bots (two armed stomper) were the most imbalanced unit in the game

I had two of them take out my friends army of about 50 tanks

The other mobile artillery unit was just a dupe of the first one so it was taken out.

Nice performance improvement just around 10 FPs more. In my opinion it's much more stable now.

Keep it up.
