I was refering to the person that wanted the game not to be in windowed mode when they reduced the resolution. I completely understand the issue you are having and the poor quality of an LCD screen scaling. I know heavenfall has changed some of the UI stuff, maybe he can help you out.

[quote who="cardinaldirection" reply="1" id="3260717"]Possible Solutions to 1: a. Troop move at the beginning of turn[/quote] There is a problem with this solution. AI moves at the beginning of the turn. Leaving you without a reaction to the AI movements. I would go with this alternative, but more indepth solution: Put a move button, where you click on it and all things that movement actions left to do, to execute the moves. The end turn automatically runs th

I can confirm that there is performance increase here. Still get the horizontal tearing when reacing max fps. Maybe add an option in the game for v-sync as adjusting it in the nVidia config fixed this tearing.

[quote who="Wizaerd" reply="9" id="3260720"]Quoting parrottmath, reply 3 This game is extremely easy to mod I see this statement over and over in these forums, and for a non-modder, no it's not easy to mod. I understand it's manipulation in the XML (or at least I believe it is) but that doesn't necessarily make something easy to mod. What gets modded, how does it get modded, what values are allowed when modding, what else get affected when I mod this va

[quote who="Frogboy" reply="21" id="3260679"]BTW, I would be delighted to create an AI Spoilers thread or something where we can discuss some of the indepth stuff. But I also don't want to ruin the game for everyone else since it takes some of the magic out.[/quote] As a mathematician I would love to see how the AI in this game is run. Given all the randomness in this game I'm thoroughly facinated to see what the AI is doing and how its doing it. But I agree that this wo

[quote] The AI is just too tough[/quote] I understand your pain here. What I don't understand is this: [quote]we're expected to create a narrow "build" and play one way or lose - and lose very quickly.[/quote] I know several ways to play the game and win. With lots of cities, few cities. Going down one research track only. The post is well written and thought out in frustration. What I would like to know what would you do differently than what the game

The magic formula that I've been working on unsuccessfully really is to redesign the waterfall tile. So far I can get the waterfall tile to always never float, but the visual effects (the water splashing and mist rising from the rocks) do not cooperate. The working model I had just needed some TLC and a lake graphic to show up when it wasn't floating (which I could do if I had the pick). I was hoping this was they way they were going to fix this problem, but they didn't. In the fu

[quote who="Argol228" reply="1" id="3260152"]No that is the wrong way to do it. I haven't spent much time with this, but city spam is the answer to getting units. that is the one thing I hate about this game to the point that I regret buying it. you can only have 1 building or 1 unit actively building/training in a city. they could at least have buildings and training have separate queues. of course city spamming would still be prevalent so to fix that cities would have to take time.

[quote who="Tuidjy" reply="7" id="3260607"]It's only useful in the campaign. It will waste a few of your turns, but it will save you a tone of clicking. [/quote] Campaign definite bonus, sandbox game... bonus for AI, not player.

[quote who="Tuidjy" reply="15" id="3260610"]Quoting Frogboy, reply 14Same as always: Challenging. Thank you. I will do what I said I would. I wish all experiments were as simple as this one.

Good luck on your fact finding mission. I look

Is this a tatical map bug, where there are not enough positions for the number of units involved with the combat. There were increases to the number of defending units just recently. I would say that for tatical city battles there needs to be at least 15 slots available... 9 for a full city and 2 for being a city and I think you can get 3 or 4 more units from fort upgrades. This may be the problem that we are seeing here.

Do the AI bribe each other to go to war with factions they are going to war with? It's something that I can do, pay loads of gildar / influence to get the AI to attack another nation. Do the AI just have loads of money to spare and bribing each other to go to war?

@argol228: Since this game is soo moddable maybe you can do exactly what you want... here is a thread that might interest you https://forums.elementalgame.com/434786

It's only there to conserve battery. I tend to play these games plugged in the wall, so I don't worry about battery consumption loss. but if you play without your plug you may consider not forcing all programs to run solely on the nVidia card.

A screenshot would speak volumes here. Next time it happens I suppose.

[quote who="Alstein" reply="18" id="3260099"]I've seen the monsters attack the AI. The one thing I'm unsure of is whether the monsters prefer to attack the player instead of the AI, if it has a chance to attack both. How does it figure who to attack when it has two options?

I'll tweak some settings and do some comparisons for you... turn off outlines and other things to see if the performance is better with this update or worse. I was checking a completely uncovered Large map, which pushes my system anyway. By any chance is there any tweaks you did with the nVidia config for the game to make it run at a higher frame rate? bug: I also noticed that poison is not being applied... the animation is there but no poison. I left a mite live for 3-4 actions w

With the map revealed I didn't notice any improvement in performance (in fact maybe slightly less performance). The game has roughly the same FPS performance. I'll play the game to check the possible AI improvements.
