Server.War2.ru / Re: no way to make maps bigger?

« on: February 28, 2025, 04:49:43 PM »

no
too much hardcoded
all map props and gameplay arrays max sizes are adamantly set to 128 and 16384 (128x128)
and you cannot even imagine in how many places in code this is ironclad and very hardcoded

Mods & Development / Re: can we make a map using all 4 tile sets into 1?

« on: February 25, 2025, 11:26:35 AM »

it would be cool if we could make a map using all 4 tile sets into 1 .. like half snow half forrest

i maked plugin that allows some parts of map to be from different tileset
but the problem is that game have only 256 colors so they will all use palette from 1 tilset
but you can make like more tiles variants for if you really want, just need to be in same palette colors

not possible
too much hardcoded
this is not even problem with interface like icons buttons amount (but this is also would have been VERY hard to fix)
but the main problem is that amount of 9 is tied everywhere in net code
like you select group of 1 to 9 units game send packet of this size to others and also you can ctrl+1 save control groups, all code working with those is strongly harcoded to the many arrays of 9*4 bytes size and they all used and REused in many places of code
so you cannot just change like one number 9 in 1 place
there will be like hundreds or even THOUSANDS of lines of code that harcoded to this size
and the main problems is not even changing them but
to FIND them ALL, that is what is VERY hard
and you cannot afford to miss it
if you miss even 1 its possibly can actually change nothing but also possibly this 1 place can cause some very cursed bugs which will be unknown what is even happening

fixed crashes from memory leak
fixed crashes from new oragorn cursors ( removed cursors  )
fixed some other minor bugs
added autosave
added easter eggs

you can update to new version in loader (maybe later we will make autoupdate here but now is cannot)
