... Hash: SHA1 ... There *is* in the code a define called 'BATTLE_FACTION_INFO' which will give that information. HOWEVER, the reason I don't turn it on by...
... Hash: SHA1 ... In that case, there would need to be a complimenting skill to avoid allowing that information to be revealed too. Not happening right now, ...
Hi, JT. Where in Atlantis 4.0.10a old rules on Conquest game? :( Where Magic conception of Conquest game? Where spells like Inspire Courage? Conquest game in...
... Hash: SHA1 ... Umm.. no, actually they aren't since I took the conquest from 4.0.4 directly at one point. However, what is there is what is there.. I...
Hi All, I've been continuing to try to get my head around implementing a roughly spherical map layout for Atlantis, and have come to the conclusion that it...
... I'm not sure of your reasoning here. Surely a world with east and west is exactly the same as a world with north and south, but rotated 90 degrees to one...
... Well yes, but this has a couple of VERY adverse effects. For starters, instead of having north and south poles, you suddenly have east and west poles....
Hi, ... Why is it a 'nice' thing? What is the problem with the current layout, and how does a sphere solve that problem? I can only guess (my apologies if this...

... You could do it the way people do it in real life - pick a line of longitude, and make that 0. Then you have your y coords, from 0 to (5+1+5+1..)n = 5*6n =...
... A very good description of what I visualise! Except that the equator would only be 50 hexes, as you'd also have bits cut out of the "sides" to match up. ...

... Doh! Of course! like the US Pentagon. Should have thought of that. Still I said Geometric terms are not my strong point :) ... hexes/pentagons. It can. ......

... Yep, it's effectively the same as the map I drew, provided you split the trangles apart in the northern and southern "hemispheres", and shift the...
... Yeah they are basically the same. My mind leapt to the term geodesic sphere because I was trying to think of how a client would represent the world. Your...
Hi, ... Yes, a sphere is perhaps more aesthetically pleasing, but it would be annoying to try and move in a particular direction and then be told that one...

Hello all. I don't believe rapping the north to the south is the answer. As if a unit was to hit the northern boarder and then walk one hex more. It would not...
