These bugs represent regressions from 0.8.21: #19601 gigantic memory usage increase to load maps in 0.8.22 #19557 clearing flag broken in 22 #19592 bugs in individual globule AI in 0.8.22 Bug #19601 makes it difficult to play on big maps anymore and slows down play on all maps. Bug #19557 means the player must waste their time constantly remaking clearing flags. Bug #19592 describes a bunch of problems with globule movement and work assignments. Some of these problems are definitely new in 0.8.22. One of the problems involves warriors for no reason getting “stuck”, spinning in place, and starving to death. This means every attack with a war flag loses a certain percentage of the warriors for no reason whatsoever. In addition, there are these long-standing but easily fixable bugs: #19602 using “+” to adjust requested workers fails on many keyboards #19600 need to be able to disable use of scrollwheel Both bug #19602 and bug #19600 should have easy fixes. (The easy fix for 19602 is also wrong in some sense, but much better than simply doing nothing.) I think all of these bugs should be at least partially addressed (although fixing all of the problems in bug #19592 is likely not reasonable). -- Joe _______________________________________________ glob2-devel mailing list glob2-devel@nongnu.org http://lists.nongnu.org/mailman/listinfo/glob2-devel
