So why not try whipping up some conscription center graphics? It's not perfect (in particular, I don't have the stone patterns used for Empire Castle and similar buildings, plus I need to adjust the lighting), but a bit of touching up should make them usable. And assuming these are doable, afterwards I'll start on the barbarians' conscription center, followed by a second tier of wells for everyone. And, of course, if anyone's interested in the .pov, just let me know; I have no problem sharing it. Top Quote

Just ckick on "Browse the code". Take a look at the .blend files, f.e. atlantean buildings Take also a look into Graphical development Top Quote

But first one is for me a bit confusing: what is this? (maybe too different to Empire castle?). I would prefer more towers (if it is a castle). Second one: dungeon? If yes- great idea! Mostly "underground" building + some place to train... einstein13 calculations & maps packages: http://wuatek.no-ip.org/~rak/widelands/ backup website files: http://kartezjusz.ddns.net/upload/widelands/ Top Quote

All too often the game would create new rookies because there were the tools to do so, and therefore smiths would create new low-level tools because the previous ones were used up making new soldiers. As a result, the smiths that could create stronger tools (letting you train your soldiers to higher levels) were too busy making rookies! It was an even bigger issue for Empire, as the same Helmet would be used both for brand new rookies and for training them from level 0 HP to level 1. So there was a thread on redoing new soldiers; the general agreement was that each tribe should have a new building to produce soldiers (some suggested names were "conscription center", "recruitment center", and "casern"). There was one problem, though -- no graphics meant no new buildings. But now we have new graphics (or will in the near future), so they can be added. For reference, the discussion was at https://bugs.launchpad.net/widelands/+bug/1075562 . Top Quote

I like it einstein13 calculations & maps packages: http://wuatek.no-ip.org/~rak/widelands/ backup website files: http://kartezjusz.ddns.net/upload/widelands/ Top Quote

At the moment, they work like the cattle farms - we still need to discuss how we wish to add the carrier as a cost (what the user interface would look like). https://code.launchpad.net/~widelands-dev/widelands/casern This is something we should try to get into Build 20 Busy indexing nil values Top Quote

The guy running the recruitment center shouldn't need much to hand rookies a couple pieces of equipment and send them on their way. In the meantime, graphics are done for the Atlantean recruitment center: http://www.mediafire.com/view/earqvcaab3b57nr/atlantean%20recruitment%20center.png http://www.mediafire.com/view/r5pe94p4114csya/atlantean%20recruitment%20center%20mask.png If they need adjusting, let me know.
