hahahaha.. That was terrible. I was slaughtered. And I designed the damn thing!
Well. From the point of view of having observed the VC to play their Lua coded CS Event Engine battle plan to max was a joy

My prediction: This won't be the last victory the computer-controlled side will claim

That's not a bad thing. And it would seem to point to the AI being able to respond in its own interesting ways, randomly.

That's absolutely correct, benpark!

It's difficult now to predict what the AI will do.

Thanks. I can’t wait to start playing. It’s been a long wait, but it’s definitely worth it.

I was a young boy when Jason started this project. I better buy a copy tomorrow before it's too late! 'Nurse, where is my credit card?'

That was funny [:D]

BTW Jason...in your "Living manual" thread which is locked the " how to" video about installing the 1.01 zip file patch is showing as "this video is private" so it cannot be viewed.

I may well just wait for an official patch as I am a technological dunce of the first order but just thought you should know.

He was waiting for me to do an install guide, which I just did. That thread should become available soon now.

Through the years, Jason moons the playing public by endlessly promising vaporware.



No, not that kind of moon[ing]! [:D]

We believe that the game will be released @ ~16:00 UTC (UK time), perhaps a bit earlier. (Speaking unofficially here. I am not Matrix/Slitherine staff.)
