Evolution RTS Get-Together #21!
It’s been a really busy week, but here are a few new things to expect!
• New Air Scout and Transport models
• Transport cost has been dropped to 20
• All riot tanks have been given an 0.7 speed increase
• Spitter now fires a guided missile that does 200 damage to armored and 100 to light/buildings
• Spitter guided missile will not be able to reliably hit small, fast moving targets with 100% reliability anymore
• Spitter missile reload time set to 1 instead of 0.4 (DPS output is roughly the same)
• Attempt to remove friendly fire damage from all weapons except where it makes sense to keep FF (Nuclear missiles, LRPC/Turret Fire, hoverbombs, etc)
That’s the short list, hope to see you ingame!
As per the usual, we will be meeting in the torture chamber room in the spring mumble server at gametime and the even will be livestreamed via twitch! Hope to see you there!

New Air Transport model!
Finally! I have finished the last of the aircraft. This one is probably the ugliest of the bunch, but at a footprint of 8×8 it’s a monster of a transport unit.

Just fixed a fairly serious site bug.
So apparently chrome for android has an issue with google web fonts imported via stylesheet (that appears intermittently). This issue reeks of irony, but I have fixed it now. I apologize to anyone who went to the site on chrome for android and got no text, I was not aware of this bug until very recently.
For those interested further, the bug report is here:
https://code.google.com/p/chromium/issues/detail?id=138257

Recent advances have occurred across the site! As you might have noticed, the theme has changed, and things look a little different. More is on the way on this front, but there have been some notable changes.

Get-Together #20 videos are all on youtube now!
All 14 of them O_o. We had some really great games. Thanks to everyone who came and played with us. More new models this week!
Wheeee!

New Air Scout Model!
Well I guess I’m just going to be churning them out as I go. For whatever reason I got inspired tonight and whipped up this little guy.
Only one more aircraft model to go!!!
Air Scout


New Air Engineer model!
Next up for replacement is the air engineer! I’m still having some script issues with it, but it does work. I haven’t been redoing many models lately simply due to lack of time, but yet another one bites the dust! Getting really close now.

Event News Posts.
So apparently, if I edit an event and update it, the link for the rss feed gets confused and garbles the URL. As a result, I’ve removed the old event invites, and in the future I will be making sure that I do them right the first time.
Oddly, the only thing it affects is Events. Strange.
