It uses a copy of the DB from 2026-04-06 so you can open your games from that time and play but when everything is working I will copy the DB from the old version again so any games on the new platform will eventually be overwritten.
Some new features:
- You can join multiple teams
- Changed DOM render engine to a GPU based rendering which will allow some nice features in future but for now movement is a bit more smooth.
- Reworked AI that is better (but Im going to make this a lot better)
- Real time games haven replaced with live games. Live = separate turns but you only have a couple of minutes per turn.
- Replays now work but old games won’t generate working replays, only new games started on the new.warbarons.com will work. For now you can look at games that are ongoing so you can spy on the opponent. This is just so we can test this out and find any bugs quickly. Later replays will only be watchable when the game is finished.
-https now works so those annoying warnings will finally be gone.
-Expect bugs and please report them in the forum. Any little detail so they can be fixed. I have gone through a lot of stuff but it’s impossible to detect stuff that happens after playing for a while on my own. Developing a game with AI is like baby sitting an idiot with super powers. It gets it wrong all the time.
-There is a 2d/Iso view toggle. I left the button there for you to look but it’s very unfinished. Not sure if I’ll do the ISO variant or update the current graphics instead and see if it’s possible to use some fun functionality to improve the current view. What do you think?
-And I changed the loader image to a new one with less naked man in it, I remember Igor’s complaint
