Rusted Warfare RTS

 
Retro inspired RTS Rusted Warfare adds shaders, new units and other huge upgradesNov 16, 2022 - GamingOnLinuxRusted Warfare is a great RTS for people who love the classics. One I discovered years ago on Android and then it later had a PC release. A big new release version 1.15 adds in loads to it. Read the full article here: https://www.gamingonlinux.com/2022/11/retro-inspired-rts-rusted-warfare-adds-shaders-new-units-and-other-huge-upgrades Rusted Warfare Major Update 1.15Nov 11, 2022 - Community Announcements{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/29174792/541703503968fe218d566e1e343030cd7341a484.png Rusted Warfare Major Update v1.15 After 10 betas releases this major update is finally out. Thank you for all the help from modders and testers. This update as been focused on major under the hood changes that greatly expand the mods that are now possible. Update Highlights: Shaders (enable in settings) ---Team coloring shaders - Used to greatly reduce memory use of mods with large images, and eliminates lag when applying team color ---Shader effects - Right now adds displacement/shockwave effects such as teleport, water ripples, nuke shockwaves. Use drawType:displacement to access in your mods. Will be expanded with more effects in future.

Moddable resource streaming style systems like in TA, C&C, etc. Modding features and changes: Moddable resource streaming: --streamingCost - Like price but paid for overtime while this unit is being queued or built. Construction or queue is paused if resources run out while building. --streamingCost - Like price but paid for overtime while action is queued, queue is paused if resource runs out. Flags can be used to pause and unpause from triggers. --switchPriceWithStreamingCost:boolean/switchPriceWithStreamingCost:boolean shortcut to set streamingCost to price value and clear price. --Add switchPriceWithStreamingCost to all-units.template to quickly switch a mod over to streaming resources. Dynamic logic boolean overhaul, with new dynamic number, unit, string types Comparison support added to logic booleans: == != >= 5, 10, 20 ) Added autoTriggerCheckRate and autoTriggerCheckRate - with the options everyFrame (default), every4Frames, every8Frames --Note: all triggers regardless of check rate are checked when first created and after an auto trigger cooldown. Checks rates every4Frames/every8Frames are randomly spread out between units so they don't all happen on the same frame, making it smoother. Adding autoTriggerCheckRate:every8Frames to all-units.template could have a large performance boost for mods with complex autoTriggers. Often x8 better performance from autoTriggers. In rare cases some triggers might still require checking every frame so this is not a default. New unit produce/spawning parameters: --Added spawnSource(unitRef) - Effects location and team eg: spawnUnits: tank(spawnSource=memory.lastLocation) --Added copyWaypointsFrom(unitRef) - Copies all waypoints on target to created units. Eg: spawnUnits: tank(copyWaypointsFrom=self) Modulus operator (%) added to ${} template blocks unloadUpToXUnitsAndGiveAttackOrder - Now unloads units at turret location (testing needed) Added borrowResourcesWhileBuilt - like borrowResourcesWhileAlive but doesn't take effect till built. Mostly useful for buildings like houses that have negative resources to add t...Probably the biggest 2D RTS around, Rusted Warfare has a major new releaseNov 17, 2020 - GamingOnLinuxRusted Warfare is sitting in quite a sweet spot for me.
