AI War 2:Finalizing Multiplayer
Contents
Known Issues
- Any bugs or requests should go to our mantis bugtracker
- If you need to submit log files, those can generally be found under your PlayerData folder in the folder your game is installed in. The most relevant one is called ArcenDebugLog.txt. You can send us the whole thing, or just strip out relevant parts.
- In rare cases, mainly if your entire game crashes (that almost never happens), we will need your unity player log. That gets overwritten the next time you run the game after a crash, unlike the other log. These can be found here:
- Windows: C:\Users\username\AppData\LocalLow\Arcen Games, LLC\AIWar2\Player.log
- macOS: ~/Library/Logs/Arcen Games, LLC/AIWar2/Player.log
- Linux: ~/.config/unity3d/Arcen Games, LLC/AIWar2/Player.log
- Multiplayer is in public beta, as noted below. There is a detailed multiplayer guide that we are working on building up.
- Feel free to join discussions on discord!
What Does Multiplayer Beta Mean?
Please see this link for details on multiplayer. This wound up taking up too much space in this document, so all of the multiplayer-relevant bits have been moved to the other page.
What's this phase all about?
Multiplayer is fully playable at this point, but still has a variety of glitches and doesn't have all of the features that we intend to have in the long term. So hence it still being in alpha status. But we greatly welcome folks to play, and hopefully give us reports on what is going wrong if something does go wrong.
We expect to be to a fully-polished non-beta status for multiplayer in May, if things continue as they have.
Our second expansion for the game, Zenith Onslaught, has a whole heck of a lot of it completed, but still needs more doing. Badger has done all of his parts for it, and has retired like Puffin before him, so at this point we are down to basically a one-person show again (me, Chris) on bugfixing, finishing multiplayer, finishing my parts of DLC2, and finishing the last of the kickstarter obligations. So if the schedule slips some, it's likely because I had trouble juggling that, or wanted extra time to make things truly shine, whichever. But at the start of this phase, things are feeling very positive.
Beta 2.801
(Not yet released -- we're still working on it!)
- Updated the game to allow parsing "false" as 0 when doing xml processing.
- This solves the problem of potential exceptions when someone has AutoBuildAssaultFrigates in the old format rather than the newer style.
- Thanks to KingSyphilis for reporting.
