<br />
If you only want to produce your own Spring game and not contribute to the core engine, compilation is not necessary. Check out [[Gamedev:Main]].<br />
<br />
<span class=warning>Warning:</span> Compiling Spring on Windows often causes problems, it is heavily recommended to use [[Building_Spring_on_Linux|Linux]] for developing the Spring RTS Engine if possible.<br />
<br />
Some reasons for this:<br />
* Of the active developers nobody uses windows for developing. So they might not be able to help as effectively as on Linux.<br />
* Setting up a build environment takes a lot more time on windows<br />
* Compiling is often slower on windows<br />
* Compiling on windows is poorly tested (which possibly leads to some random / unknown / weird errors)<br />
<br />
That said, if you do wish to use Windows, the best place to get real-time help is the #sy lobby channel, or #sy on [[IRC]].<br />
<br />
=Compiling with MinGW=<br />
<br />
<br />
== Requirements ==<br />
Install [http://www.cmake.org/ CMake] and [http://msysgit.github.io/ msysGit] and MinGW-w64:<br />
<br />
When installing msysGit you should select the option to "Run Git from the Windows Command Prompt":<br />
<br />
[[File:Msysgit6.png|400px]]<br />
<br />
This is in order to automatically add Git to PATH making it easy for CMake to find.<br />
<br />
== Installing MinGW-w64 ==<br />
<br />
Download and run the "Mingw-builds project - native toolchains using trunk" installer from [http://mingw-w64.org/doku.php/download/mingw-builds].<br />
<br />
<br />
Select the following options:<br />
<br />
[[File:InstallingMinGW-w64.png|400px]]<br />
<br />
* '''Version:''' Any version above 4.8.x should work, 4.9.x+ may not have been tested as thoroughly. In 2020, version 8.1.0 works fine!<br />
* '''Architecture:''' i686<br />
* '''Threads:''' posix<br />
* '''Exception:''' sjlj <span class="note">This is the only setting which needs to be changed from the default</span><br />
* '''Build Revision:''' The latest one<br />
<br />
== Adding to PATH ==<br />
<br />
Once installed, you should add the MinGW directory to your PATH variable so that Cmake can find the relevant binaries. <br />
<br />
* Go to System properties (either via Control Panel\System and Security\System or by right clicking 'Computer' on the desktop), then click 'Advanced System Settings'. <br />
* Click the 'Environment Variables' button at the bottom. <br />
* Find Path in the 'System Variables' scrollbox, add an extra <code>;</code> to the end and then copy-paste in the MinGW directory (e.g. default is <code>C:\Program Files (x86)\mingw-w64\i686-4.9.1-posix-sjlj-rt_v3-rev0\mingw32\bin</code>). <br />
* Alternative instructions with images are easy to find online, for example [http://geekswithblogs.net/renso/archive/2009/10/21/how-to-set-the-windows-path-in-windows-7.aspx here].<br />
<br />
= Get the Source Code =<br />
<br />
* use git's bash (you find it in the right click context menu when clicking the folder), <code>cd</code> into your spring source dir<br />
<br />
<code><pre><br />
git clone --recursive git://github.com/spring/spring.git -b develop<br />
cd spring<br />
git clone https://github.com/spring/mingwlibs<br />
</pre></code><br />
<br />
* update it from time to time with: <code>git pull --rebase</code><br />
<br />
* Make sure you install the package in the checkout directory, so the path is: /spring/mingwlibs. If done right, it will look like:<br />
** */spring/<br />
** */spring/...<br />
** */spring/mingwlibs<br />
** */spring/rts<br />
<br />
* Note: if you install the package somewhere else (preferably outside of the source tree), and pass its location with the ''MINGDIR'' option to CMake in the configure step (see further down, in the quick instructions).<br />
<br />
<br />
== configure using CMake ==<br />
<br />
* run the ''cmake-gui'' and select a source and a build directory<br />
* press '''Configure''' and follow the instructions<br />
* In case of configuration errors make sure AI_TYPES variable is set to NONE (default is ALL). This should remedy the issues press '''Configure''' again (Remark: Setting NATIVE works as well (tested in commit 9108cae116))<br />
* press '''Generate'''<br />
* open a console (''cmd.exe''), ''cd'' into your '''build''' directory<br />
* ''optional:'' for multi-threaded compilation, the ''mingw32-make'' part may differ on your system: <code>''<pre>set MAKE_COMMAND=mingw32-make -j2</pre>''</code> (use -j4 for 4 threads)<br />
* compile with: <code>''<pre>mingw32-make install-spring</pre>''</code><br />
* compile just the engine (spring.exe) with: <code>''<pre>mingw32-make engine-legacy</pre>''</code><br />
<br />
===Generating the AI Sources/Wrappers===<br />
<br />
you can either build the wrapper:<br />
<br />
<code>make Cpp-AIWrapper</code><br />
<br />
or generate all sources, in case you don't need the binary:<br />
<br />
<code>make generateSources</code><br />
<br />
===Possible Problems===<br />
* If you get <span class=warning>undefined reference to `_Unwind_Resume'</span> linking errors, deinstall ''whole'' MinGW and reinstall it with ''sjlj''.<br />
<br />
* When you installed an old version of MinGW/TDM and forgot to deinstall it correctly, <code>gcc.exe</code> & <code>g++.exe</code> will be named <code>gcc-dw2.exe</code>/<code>g++-dw2.exe</code>. CMake will then fail to find the correct one, first try to deinstall anything mingw related and reinstall everything. If that didn't helped just rename the files. If even that doesn't help open cmake-gui and click the advanced button and set the paths to the correct files yourself (<code>CMAKE_C_COMPILER</code> & <code>CMAKE_CXX_COMPILER</code>).<br />
<br />
<br />
=== Notes ===<br />
<br />
You can still use Visual Studio 2012 as described below to edit the code. This is very useful because it allows excellent code navigation, and it highlights syntax errors and trivial mistakes before compiling. <br />
<br />
For debugging mingw builds, you can aquire a windows build of gdb from http://www.equation.com/servlet/equation.cmd?fa=gdb<br />
<br />
To start debugging, copy ''gdb.exe'' to your build output directory, and launch it with ''gdb spring.exe''. You can supply command line arguments to ''spring.exe'' with ''gdb --args spring.exe myreplayfile.sdf''<br />
<br />
=Compiling with Visual Studio (not officially supported!)=<br />
Currently Visual Studio lacks some c++ features it doesn't compile spring!<br />
<br />
==General Visual Studio Notes==<br />
When developing using Visual Studio keep in mind:<br />
*<span class="warning">It's experimental and not proved to compile or run!</span><br />
*<span class="warning">Your VS build won't sync with GCC builds in multiplayer mode</span><br />
*AIs built with Visual Studio will work with the mingw32 release builds thanks to the C AI Interface, however this interface may change when newer releases are made<br />
*Running any non-LUA AI on VS built Spring will crash it<br />
<br />
===2012 (v11)===<br />
<br />
Install [http://www.microsoft.com/visualstudio/eng/downloads#d-express-windows-desktop Visual Studio 2012 Express for Windows Desktop], [http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/confirmation.aspx?id=35515 Visual C++ Compiler November 2012 CTP], [http://www.cmake.org/ cmake], [http://www.7-zip.org 7-zip] and [http://msysgit.github.io/ msysgit].<br />
<br />
<br />
<br />
From the Startmenu run "VS2012 x86 Native Tools Command Prompt" and type:<br />
<br />
<code><pre><br />
set PATH=%PATH%;%PROGRAMFILES%\git\bin;%PROGRAMFILES%\cmake 2.8\bin\<br />
git clone --recursive git://github.com/spring/spring.git -b develop<br />
cd spring<br />
git clone git://github.com/spring/vclibs11.git vclibs<br />
cmake -G "Visual Studio 11" .<br />
</pre></code><br />
<br />
Now start visual studio & open Spring.sln. Select "engine-legacy" as default project, as AIs and ofter stuff are known to fail to compile on visual studio.<br />
<br />
In the Project Properties, make sure to [http://stackoverflow.com/questions/13238408/variadic-template-in-vs-2012-visual-c-november-2012-ctp select the Microsoft Visual C++ Compiler Nov 2012 CTP].<br />
<br />
Note: Visual Studio 2012 Express for Windows Desktop is for free, but requires a registration after 30 days (to get a free license).<br />

===2005-12-13 The Lost Legacy v1.04 Released===<br />
The Lost Legacy Race, originally by M3G, ported to Spring by NOiZE.<br />
<br />
This is the TA:Spring version of the masterpiece race created by the TA creation veterans M3G and Nik. Striving for perfection, they have completed an astoundishing number of 150 new units. This is by far the most expanded and carefully balanced race that has been created to this point. Explore the strategic values of the new submarine pens, defensive constructions and the many supersized monsters that let you toy with the opponent.<br />

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===<br />
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.<br />
<br />
One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.<br />

An in-depth manual, with help regarding strategies and unit descriptions can be located [http://www.planetannihilation.com/swta/readme.asp here], however, bear in mind that while much of this will be very helpful, it was originally intended for the Original Total Annihilation release, and so is not 100% accurate or reliable with regards to the Spring release. A Spring-specific manual is in the works.<br />

'''AAI''' is being developed by [[User:Submarine|Submarine]]. It is rather stable and supports most popular [[mods]] (e.g. AA, TA:WD, XTA, SWTA and TLL). <br />
<br />
AAI attempts to learn about the mod while playing. However it will take at least a few games, in the beginning AAI will suffer from ineffective build choices. Not only does it keep track of combat efficiency of single units it will also try to learn about which unit categories are used on a specific map and how often it is attacked by certain units (e.g. air units instead of ground units). Therefore AAI will in a limited way adapt to its opponent's playstyle. It also places its defences according to where it has been attacked. <br />
<br />
Since AAI 0.50, a new economy management has been implemented. AAI will build all kinds of power plants, storages and metal makers according to its current demand and situation. AAI will also try to exchange metal extractors with better versions once they are available.<br />
<br />
AAI will use its airforce to weaken enemy defences, destroy outposts and support ground assault units.<br />
<br />
Since version 0.60, limited water support has been implemented. However AAI will have problems especially on mixed land/water maps.<br />
<br />
AAI needs a separate config file to be able to run with a specific mod. There are cfg files available for most common mods, however it's not very hard to create one yourself, see readme.txt and mod cfg helpfiles for more information. If AAI cannot find a suitable mod cfg file it will display an error message and print the name of the file it had been looking for in the ai log.<br />

=== Info ===<br />
*Playability : especially on big maps with lots of metal it will put up a decent fight (play against 3 AAIs on Comet Catcher Remake :) )<br />
*Limitations : AAI does not build mobile artillery so far and there is no support for nukes/anti nukes etc.<br />

A fork of Absolute Annihilation, BA takes up where AA left off. The current version, 6.0, is the result of continued development by veteran players refining the expanded OTA experience. The main differences between AA and BA are unit balancing changes and bug fixes, made to address game play concerns following the release of AA v2.23.<br />

AAI attempts to learn about the mod while playing. However it will take at least a few games, in the beginning AAI will suffer from ineffective build choices. Not only does it keep track of combat efficiency of single units it will also try to learn about which unit categories are used on a specific map and how often it is attacked by certain units (e.g. air units instead of ground units). Therefore AAI will in a limited way adapt to its opponent's playstyle. It also places its defences according to where it has been attacked. <br />
<br />
Since AAI 0.50, a new economy management has been implemented. AAI will build all kinds of power plants, storages and metal makers according to its current demand and situation. AAI will also try to exchange metal extractors with better versions once they are available.<br />
<br />
AAI will use its airforce to weaken enemy defences, destroy outposts and support ground assault units.<br />
<br />
Since version 0.60, limited water support has been implemented. However AAI will have problems especially on mixed land/water maps.<br />
<br />
AAI needs a separate config file to be able to run with a specific mod. There are cfg files available for most common mods, however it's not very hard to create one yourself, see readme.txt and mod cfg helpfiles for more information. If AAI cannot find a suitable mod cfg file it will display an error message and print the name of the file it had been looking for in the ai log.<br />
<br />
=== Info ===<br />
*Playability : especially on big maps with lots of metal it will put up a decent fight (play against 3 AAIs on Comet Catcher Remake :) )<br />
*Limitations : water support, no support for nukes/anti nukes etc.<br />
<br />
== License ==<br />
* AAI 0.7 (and above) will have a license change from unknown license TO GPL (version not specified, ask Submarine for futher details)<br />

<BR><center>'''The following will answer the most commonly-asked questions about Spring from newcomers, especially those confused by the differences between the way Total Annihilation handles things and the way Spring handles things.'''</center><BR><br />
<br />
===About Spring===<br />
Spring is an open source project. This means everyone with programming knowledge can contribute in the project. It also means this is made in free time.<BR><BR><br />
Spring is currently in a Beta stage. This means it isn't done yet. Therefore, some things may be unclear or not user-friendly yet. (Like the GUI, which doesn't exist.) That said, Spring is still totally playable with many fan-made mods to choose from.<BR><BR><br />
<br />
===Installation (on Windows)===<br />
* For installation on Linux, [[SetupGuide|go here]]<br />
# Get The installer here: http://taspring.clan-sy.com/download.php or here: http://www.strategyinformer.com/pc/taspringproject/full-game/10190.html<br />
# Spring and Total Annihilation are two completely different programs. Their files are not in any way interchangeable.<br />
# As such, they should be installed to different directories. Spring is usually installed at C:\Program Files\TASpring<br />
# Make sure you have the latest version of Spring. The current version is {{CurrentVersion}}<br />
# Spring it self is an engine, the program that runs the content. The content itself (the buildings, units, sounds, images) are packed in mod files. There are several mods you can play with Spring. They all have diffrent play styles. The mod: XTA comes with the installer and can be played when you have installed Spring.<br />
<br />
===Playing===<br />
# To play a game of Spring, you must run the <b>TASClient.exe</B> program. Spring itself, at this time, cannot be run directly very well.<br />
# You can start TASClient through the start menu link it creates or by running <b>TASClient.exe</b> in the directory you installed Spring in.<br />
# It is possible to play a single player game. Of course, this requires an AI to fight against. Take a look at the Bots section of this article.<br />
<br><br />
# To chat with <b>allies</b>, type "a:" (without quotemarks) before your message<br />
# Another useful commands: "e:" (chatting only with <b>enemies</b>), "s:" (chatting only with <b>spectators</b>).<br />
<br><br />
# press F1 for seeing the <b>heightmap</b> (because some buildings cannot be built anywhere).<br />
# press F2 when you want to see where the builder <b>can build</b> the selected unit.<br />
# press F3 for seeing <b>last action</b> in the game.<br />
# press F4 for seeing <b>metal map</b> (where to build metal extractors).<br />
# press F6 to disable sounds.<br />
# press F9 to disable units health bars.<br />
# press F12 to take a screenshot with average JPG quality.<br />
<br><br />
# press left mouse button to select an unit.<br />
# press left mouse button and drag, to select multiple units.<br />
# press right mouse button to move selected units in that position where mouse is.<br />
# press left mouse button on nothing to do nothing and deselect selected units (when selected units).<br />
<br />
===Using Mods===<br />
# A list of all mods can be found at: [[Mods]]<br />
# You can download most mods from [http://www.fileuniverse.com/?p=listing&ID=92 File Universe]. or [http://spring.unknown-files.net/ Unknown Files] You should probably bookmark this page.<br />
# To install a mod ("data set") to Spring, you just simply put the ".sd7" or ".sdz" file (or files) into your "Spring\Mods\" directory.<br />
# Some mods have multiple files to them. For example, "Absolute Annihilation" currently contains the base mod file, then extra files for the given version being played and the desired 'mutator'. Place all these into the mod folder.<br />
# Once a mod has been installed, restart the Spring Client, or click on the "Refresh mod list" when hosting a game. It then will appear as an option when you start a game ("Battle Screen") in TASClient.<br />
<br />
===Using Maps===<br />
# Maps can be found at [http://spring.unknown-files.net/ Unknown Files].<BR><BR><br />
# This files are also ".sd7" or ".sdz" files. They may be zipped with WinZip or WinRar, to reduce the size. In that case, unzip them before placing them in the "Maps" directory in the Spring folder.<BR><BR><br />
# In the Battle Screen, use the "Reload Map list" button to use the new maps.<BR><BR><br />
# The Client can also automatically download the required map. In the Battlescreen go to "More Maps" and select a new map from the list.<BR><BR><br />
<br />
===Client===<br />
# The purpose of TASClient is similar to the Microsoft Zone lobby, only not as pretty. You can go there to chat, start games, download maps, and basically anything Spring related.<br />
# Private messaging is also supported through TASClient by double-clicking a person's name on the list on the right-hand side of the screen. To exit a private messaging window, right-click that person's name at the top of your screen. (next to something like "#main")<br />
# To host a game, go to "Battle Screen" and click the "Host battle" buton. A small window pops up, allowing you to chose the mod and other settings.<br />
# If you're in a battle, but have 'lost' your battle screen, you can get it back by hitting the "Battle Screen" button on the top-left of the main Client window. This is also where you host games from.<br />
# There is an alternate client made by Altaric. [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/wiki/Altaric's_Lobby_Client Altaclient].<br />
<br />
===Bots===<br />
Bots are AI controlled players. There are several AI projects in development. Most of them are at a playable stage.<br><br />
<br />
There are bots packed with Spring, so you should already have several AI to fight against. Installing other AIs or new versions is simple as using new mods or maps.<br><br><br />
# Unpack the downloaded file, and place the dll files in \TAspring\ai\bot-libs. Note that some AIs require additional folders/files to work properly so read their install instructions carefully<br><br><br />
# Restart Spring Client if it was running.<br><br><br />
# Or use [http://spring.unknown-files.net/?page=browse&dlid=2012 SpringSP], a small program that easily sets up a singleplayer game.<br><br><br />
<br />

<BR><center>'''The following will answer the most commonly-asked questions about Spring from newcomers, especially those confused by the differences between the way Total Annihilation handles things and the way Spring handles things.'''</center><BR><br />
<br />
===About Spring===<br />
Spring is an open source project. This means everyone with programming knowledge can contribute in the project. It also means this is made in free time.<BR><BR><br />
Spring is currently in a Beta stage. This means it isn't done yet. Therefore, some things may be unclear or not user-friendly yet. (Like the GUI, which doesn't exist.) That said, Spring is still totally playable with many fan-made mods to choose from.<BR><BR><br />
<br />
===Installation (on Windows)===<br />
* For installation on Linux, [[SetupGuide|go here]]<br />
# Get The installer here: http://taspring.clan-sy.com/download.php or here: http://www.strategyinformer.com/pc/taspringproject/full-game/10190.html<br />
# Spring and Total Annihilation are two completely different programs. Their files are not in any way interchangeable.<br />
# As such, they should be installed to different directories. Spring is usually installed at C:\Program Files\TASpring<br />
# Make sure you have the latest version of Spring. The current version is {{CurrentVersion}}<br />
# Spring it self is an engine, the program that runs the content. The content itself (the buildings, units, sounds, images) are packed in mod files. There are several mods you can play with Spring. They all have diffrent play styles. The mod: XTA comes with the installer and can be played when you have installed Spring.<br />
<br />
===Playing===<br />
# To play a game of Spring, you must run the <b>TASClient.exe</B> program. Spring itself, at this time, cannot be run directly very well.<br />
# You can start TASClient through the start menu link it creates or by running <b>TASClient.exe</b> in the directory you installed Spring in.<br />
# It is possible to play a single player game. Of course, this requires an AI to fight against. Take a look at the Bots section of this article.<br />
<br><br />
# To chat with <b>allies</b>, type "a:" (without quotemarks) before your message<br />
# Another useful commands: "e:" (chatting only with <b>enemies</b>), "s:" (chatting only with <b>spectators</b>).<br />
<br><br />
# press F1 for seeing the <b>heightmap</b> (because some buildings cannot be built anywhere).<br />
# press F2 when you want to see where the builder <b>can build</b> the selected unit.<br />
# press F3 for seeing <b>last action</b> in the game.<br />
# press F4 for seeing <b>metal map</b> (where to build metal extractors).<br />
# press F6 to disable sounds.<br />
# press F9 to disable units health bars.<br />
# press F12 to take a screenshot with average JPG quality.<br />
<br><br />
# press left mouse button to select an unit.<br />
# press left mouse button and drag, to select multiple units.<br />
# press right mouse button to move selected units in that position where mouse is.<br />
# press left mouse button on nothing to do nothing and deselect selected units (when selected units).<br />
<br />
===Using Mods===<br />
# A list of all mods can be found at: [[Mods]]<br />
# You can download most mods from [http://www.fileuniverse.com/?p=listing&ID=92 File Universe]. or [http://spring.unknown-files.net/ Unknown Files] You should probably bookmark this page.<br />
# To install a mod ("data set") to Spring, you just simply put the ".sd7" or ".sdz" file (or files) into your "Spring\Mods\" directory.<br />
# Some mods have multiple files to them. For example, "Absolute Annihilation" currently contains the base mod file, then extra files for the given version being played and the desired 'mutator'. Place all these into the mod folder.<br />
# Once a mod has been installed, restart the Spring Client, or click on the "Refresh mod list" when hosting a game. It then will appear as an option when you start a game ("Battle Screen") in TASClient.<br />
<br />
===Using Maps===<br />
# Maps can be found at [http://spring.unknown-files.net/ Unknown Files].<BR><BR><br />
# This files are also ".sd7" or ".sdz" files. They may be zipped with WinZip or WinRar, to reduce the size. In that case, unzip them before placing them in the "Maps" directory in the Spring folder.<BR><BR><br />
# In the Battle Screen, use the "Reload Map list" button to use the new maps.<BR><BR><br />
# The Client can also automatically download the required map. In the Battlescreen go to "More Maps" and select a new map from the list.<BR><BR><br />
<br />
===Client===<br />
# The purpose of TASClient is similar to the Microsoft Zone lobby, only not as pretty. You can go there to chat, start games, download maps, and basically anything Spring related.<br />
# Private messaging is also supported through TASClient by double-clicking a person's name on the list on the right-hand side of the screen. To exit a private messaging window, right-click that person's name at the top of your screen. (next to something like "#main")<br />

<div>== Maps ==<br />
With version 0.6 Spring has a new map format.<br />
<br />
=== Download maps ===<br />
You can find a lot of new maps at [http://spring.unknown-files.net/ Unknown Files].<br />
<br />
After downloading new maps make sure you put the files into the /maps/ subfolder of spring. When adding new maps while running the lobby client remember to click "reload map list" to be able to select them.<br />

<div>{{AI|AAI|Submarine|V0.76|Supports XTA, BA, AA, TA:WD, SWTA, TLL, KuroTA, FF, Gundam, TA Battle Fleet, Spring 1944|Under Active Development| To 0.70 Closed Source, <br>from 0.70 Open Source (GPL)}}<br />
<br />
'''AAI''' is being developed by [[User:Submarine|Submarine]]. It is stable and supports most popular [[mods]] (e.g. AA, TA:WD, XTA, SWTA and TLL).<br />
<br />
AAI attempts to learn about the mod it's playing, however this may take a few games - do not wonder if it makes stupid choices at first. It also places its defences according to where it has been attacked.<br />
<br />
Since AAI 0.50, a new economy management has been implemented. AAI will build all kinds of power plants, storages and metal makers according to its current demand and situation. AAI will also try to exchange metal extractors with better versions once they are available.<br />
<br />
AAI will use its airforce to weaken enemy defences, destroy outposts and support ground assault units.<br />
<br />
Since version 0.60, some experimental water support has been implemented. <br />
<br />
=== Info ===<br />
*Playability : especially on big maps with lots of metal it will put up a decent fight (play against 3 AAIs on Comet Catcher Remake :) )<br />
*Limitations : experimental water support, no support for nukes/anti nukes etc.<br />
<br />
== License ==<br />
* AAI 0.7 (and above) will have a license change from unknown license TO GPL (version not specified, ask Submarine for futher details)<br />

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===<br />
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.<br />
<br />
One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.<br />

An in-depth manual, with help regarding strategies and unit descriptions can be located [http://www.planetannihilation.com/swta/readme.asp here], however, bear in mind that while much of this will be very helpful, it was originally intended for the Original Total Annihilation release, and so is not 100% accurate or reliable with regards to the Spring release. A Spring-specific manual is in the works.<br />

<br />
'''AAI''' is being developed by [[User:Submarine|Submarine]]. It is stable and supports most popular [[mods]] (e.g. AA, TA:WD, XTA, SWTA and TLL).<br />
<br />
AAI attempts to learn about the mod it's playing, however this may take a few games - do not wonder if it makes stupid choices at first. It also places its defences according to where it has been attacked.<br />
<br />
Since AAI 0.50, a new economy management has been implemented. AAI will build all kinds of power plants, storages and metal makers according to its current demand and situation. AAI will also try to exchange metal extractors with better versions once they are available.<br />
<br />
AAI will use its airforce to weaken enemy defences, destroy outposts and support ground assault units.<br />
<br />
Since version 0.60, some experimental water support has been implemented. <br />
<br />
=== Info ===<br />
*Playability : especially on big maps with lots of metal it will put up a decent fight (play against 3 AAIs on Comet Catcher Remake :) )<br />
*Limitations : experimental water support, no support for nukes/anti nukes etc.<br />

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===<br />
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.<br />
<br />
One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.<br />

An in-depth manual, with help regarding strategies and unit descriptions can be located [http://www.planetannihilation.com/swta/readme.asp here], however, bear in mind that while much of this will be very helpful, it was originally intended for the Original Total Annihilation release, and so is not 100% accurate or reliable with regards to the Spring release. A Spring-specific manual is in the works.<br />

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===<br />
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.<br />
<br />
One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.<br />

An in-depth manual, with help regarding strategies and unit descriptions can be located [http://www.planetannihilation.com/swta/readme.asp here], however, bear in mind that while much of this will be very helpful, it was originally intended for the Original Total Annihilation release, and so is not 100% accurate or reliable with regards to the Spring release. A Spring-specific manual is in the works.<br />

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===<br />
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.<br />
<br />
One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.<br />

<hr />
<div>'''AI''', or '''Artificial Intelligence''', is what the Computer Opponents in games are called. Developing a good AI is a major undertaking, and requires quite a bit of know how. As the SY's have more important things to do than develop an AI, they have left this job up to the community. The community has risen to the challenge remarkably well, releasing quite a few AI's, most of which are in working condition.<br />
<br />
There are currently a few AI's in development. The more notable of these include JCAI, which is shipped with Spring, and NTAI, which is not stable enough for release yet.<br />
<br />
== Current AI's ==<br />
=== [[AI:AAI|AAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:AAI|AAI]] is an AI currently being developed by [[User:Submarine|Submarine]]. AAI 0.60 is stable and works with most popular mods. It also supports water and air units.<br />
<br />
=== [[AI:JCAI|JCAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:JCAI|JCAI]] is an AI that was being developed by [[User:Zaphod|Zaphod]]. As Zaphod has now taken over the job as head programmer, development on JCAI has come to a halt. Despite this, it is still good, and is currently being shipped with Spring, and is a good starting point for new players to train against. It is very stable.<br />
<br />
=== [[AI:KAI|KAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:KAI|KAI]]is an AI currently being developed by [[User:krogothe|krogothe]]. A very early version of the yet incomplete AI has been released, but is not yet up to a playable standard. It has several limitations such as only being able to play as XTA core and using only vehicles but still manages to produce a decent challenge in groups of 3 or more due to its relentless attacking and decent economy. For best results play in a flat, small map made of metal or with many mex spots. <br />
<br />
=== [[AI:NTAI|NTAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:NTAI|NTAI]] is an AI currently being developed by [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=73 Alantai Firestar]. It performs better than [[User:Zaphod|Zaphod's]] [[AI:JCAI|JCAI]], but is not quite as stable. Also being shipped with current Spring releases, it is a good alternative for people to practice against. However it is very cpu-power consuming.<br />
<br />
=== OTAI ===<br />
OTAI is an AI being developed by [[User:Veylon|Veylon]]. It builds randomly using OTA-style profiles. It is relativly stable and works with some of the more important mods.<br />
<br />
=== ZcAIn ===<br />
[[AI:ZcAIn|ZcAIn]] is an AI currently being developed by [[User:Cain|Cain]]. It is probably the least developed of the lot, but is coming along nicley. It is a new addition to the AI scene.<br />
<br />
=== [[Random enemies]] ===<br />
There is a also the [[Random enemies]] script, which can be used for some basic testing. It is not an AI as such, but a spawn script that can be either used to test an AI, or to train against.<br />
<br />
=== Group AIs ===<br />
<br />
These AIs are designed for use by a human player, to be assigned to a group of units and give that group orders to reduce micromanaging.<br />
<br />
==== Metal Maker AI ====<br />
<br />
The [[Metal Maker AI]] turns member metal makers off when energy reserves get low and turns them back on again when energy reserves are nearly full.<br />
<br />
==== Simple Formation AI ====<br />
<br />
[[Simple Formation]].<br />
<br />
==== Central Build AI ====<br />
<br />
The [[Central Build AI]] organizes the build tasks given to construction units so that units build whatever tasks are nearest to them, or guards other construction units to help them if there aren't any tasks it can build on its own.<br />
<br />
==== greenai ====<br />
<br />
The [[greenai]] is currently for Nanoblobs. It produces units exponentially using the groupAI interface.<br />
<br />
== Documentation ==<br />
<br />
=== Global AI Interface ===<br />
Jouninkomiko has a topic on the [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=923 Global AI Interface] running here.<br />
<br />
=== Metal Handler Class ===<br />
Cain has developed and released a Metal Handler Class that succesfully finds metal spots on maps, which can be a major stumbling block for many AI developers. Information about it can be found in [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=2408 this thread]<br />
<br />
=== Theory ===<br />
Useful existing documentation on the Spring unit AI can be found in<br />
[http://taspring.clan-sy.com/SAI/ K-man's Spring AI documentation], however this is not related to the Global AI.<br />
<br />
Alantai Firestar has a lot of theory on the topic on [http://www.darkstars.co.uk his site], including details on his NTAI project.<br />
<br />
Triaxx had a topic about the '[http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=539 5 Matrix AI 1,2,3]', and also some information at Alantai Firestar's site.<br />

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===<br />
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.<br />
<br />
One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.<br />

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===<br />
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.<br />
<br />
One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.<br />

<hr />
<div>'''AI''', or '''Artificial Intelligence''', is what the Computer Opponents in games are called. Developing a good AI is a major undertaking, and requires quite a bit of know how. As the SY's have more important things to do than develop an AI, they have left this job up to the community. The community has risen to the challenge remarkably well, releasing quite a few AI's, most of which are in working condition.<br />
<br />
There are currently a few AI's in development. The more notable of these include JCAI, which is shipped with Spring, and NTAI, which is not stable enough for release yet.<br />
<br />
== Current AI's ==<br />
=== [[AI:AAI|AAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:AAI|AAI]] is an AI currently being developed by [[User:Submarine|Submarine]]. AAI 0.55 is stable and works with most popular mods but it doesn't support naval units yet.<br />
<br />
=== [[AI:JCAI|JCAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:JCAI|JCAI]] is an AI that was being developed by [[User:Zaphod|Zaphod]]. As Zaphod has now taken over the job as head programmer, development on JCAI has come to a halt. Despite this, it is still good, and is currently being shipped with Spring, and is a good starting point for new players to train against. It is very stable.<br />
<br />
=== [[AI:KAI|KAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:KAI|KAI]]is an AI currently being developed by [[User:krogothe|krogothe]]. A very early version of the yet incomplete AI has been released, but is not yet up to a playable standard. It has several limitations such as only being able to play as XTA core and using only vehicles but still manages to produce a decent challenge in groups of 3 or more due to its relentless attacking and decent economy. For best results play in a flat, small map made of metal or with many mex spots. <br />
<br />
=== [[AI:NTAI|NTAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:NTAI|NTAI]] is an AI currently being developed by [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=73 Alantai Firestar]. It performs better than [[User:Zaphod|Zaphod's]] [[AI:JCAI|JCAI]], but is not quite as stable. Also being shipped with current Spring releases, it is a good alternative for people to practice against. However it is very cpu-power consuming.<br />
<br />
=== OTAI ===<br />
OTAI is an AI being developed by [[User:Veylon|Veylon]]. It builds randomly using OTA-style profiles. It is relativly stable and works with some of the more important mods.<br />
<br />
=== ZcAIn ===<br />
[[AI:ZcAIn|ZcAIn]] is an AI currently being developed by [[User:Cain|Cain]]. It is probably the least developed of the lot, but is coming along nicley. It is a new addition to the AI scene.<br />
<br />
=== [[Random enemies]] ===<br />
There is a also the [[Random enemies]] script, which can be used for some basic testing. It is not an AI as such, but a spawn script that can be either used to test an AI, or to train against.<br />
<br />
=== Group AIs ===<br />
<br />
These AIs are designed for use by a human player, to be assigned to a group of units and give that group orders to reduce micromanaging.<br />
<br />
==== Metal Maker AI ====<br />
<br />
The [[Metal Maker AI]] turns member metal makers off when energy reserves get low and turns them back on again when energy reserves are nearly full.<br />
<br />
==== Simple Formation AI ====<br />
<br />
[[Simple Formation]].<br />
<br />
==== Central Build AI ====<br />
<br />
The [[Central Build AI]] organizes the build tasks given to construction units so that units build whatever tasks are nearest to them, or guards other construction units to help them if there aren't any tasks it can build on its own.<br />
<br />
==== greenai ====<br />
<br />
The [[greenai]] is currently for Nanoblobs. It produces units exponentially using the groupAI interface.<br />

=== Global AI Interface ===<br />
Jouninkomiko has a topic on the [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=923 Global AI Interface] running here.<br />
<br />
=== Metal Handler Class ===<br />
Cain has developed and released a Metal Handler Class that succesfully finds metal spots on maps, which can be a major stumbling block for many AI developers. Information about it can be found in [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=2408 this thread]<br />
<br />
=== Theory ===<br />
Useful existing documentation on the Spring unit AI can be found in<br />
[http://taspring.clan-sy.com/SAI/ K-man's Spring AI documentation], however this is not related to the Global AI.<br />
<br />
Alantai Firestar has a lot of theory on the topic on [http://www.darkstars.co.uk his site], including details on his NTAI project.<br />
<br />
Triaxx had a topic about the '[http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/viewtopic.php?t=539 5 Matrix AI 1,2,3]', and also some information at Alantai Firestar's site.<br />

<hr />
<div>'''AAI''' is beeing developed by [[User:Submarine|Submarine]]. It it stable and supports most popular [[mods]] (e.g. AA, TA:WD, XTA, SWTA and TLL).<br />
<br />
AAI is the only [[AI]] that does not use predefined [[buildscripts]] or [[unit weight]]s but learns about the combat skills of the different units. It also places its defences according to where it has been attacked.<br />
<br />
Since AAI 0.5, a new economy management has been implemented. AAI will build all kinds of power plants, storages and metal makers according to its current demand and situation. However AAI is not yet capable of "exchanging" cheap ectractors.<br />
<br />
AAI sometimes uses air units to support ground units in combat against strong units/defences.<br />
<br />
Naval units will be added in the future.<br />
<br />
=== Info ===<br />
*Status : 0.55<br />
*Compatible mods : XTA, Absolute Annihilation, World Domination, Star Wars TA, TLL, KuroTA, Final Frontier, Gundam Annihilation basically all OTA based mods<br />
*Playability : not exceedingly challenging<br />
*Limitations : no support for water maps, limited air support, no support for nukes/anti nukes etc.<br />

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===<br />
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.<br />
<br />
One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.<br />

<hr />
<div>'''AI''', or '''Artificial Intelligence''', is what the Computer Opponents in games are called. Developing a good AI is a major undertaking, and requires quite a bit of know how. As the SY's have more important things to do than develop an AI, they have left this job up to the community. The community has risen to the challenge remarkably well, releasing quite a few AI's, most of which are in working condition.<br />
<br />
There are currently a few AI's in development. The more notable of these include JCAI, which is shipped with Spring, and NTAI, which is not stable enough for release yet.<br />
<br />
== Current AI's ==<br />
=== [[AI:AAI|AAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:AAI|AAI]] is an AI currently being developed by [[User:Submarine|Submarine]]. AAI 0.52 is stable and works with most popular mods but it doesn't support naval units yet.<br />
<br />
=== [[AI:JCAI|JCAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:JCAI|JCAI]] is an AI that was being developed by [[User:Zaphod|Zaphod]]. As Zaphod has now taken over the job as head programmer, development on JCAI has come to a halt. Despite this, it is still good, and is currently being shipped with Spring, and is a good starting point for new players to train against. It is very stable.<br />
<br />
=== [[AI:KAI|KAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:KAI|KAI]]is an AI currently being developed by [[User:krogothe|krogothe]]. A very early version of the yet incomplete AI has been released, but is not yet up to a playable standard. It has several limitations such as only being able to play as XTA core and using only vehicles but still manages to produce a decent challenge in groups of 3 or more due to its relentless attacking and decent economy. For best results play in a flat, small map made of metal or with many mex spots. <br />
<br />
=== [[AI:NTAI|NTAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:NTAI|NTAI]] is an AI currently being developed by [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=73 Alantai Firestar]. It performs better than [[User:Zaphod|Zaphod's]] [[AI:JCAI|JCAI]], but is not quite as stable. Also being shipped with current Spring releases, it is a good alternative for people to practice against. However it is very cpu-power consuming.<br />
<br />
=== OTAI ===<br />
OTAI is an AI being developed by [[User:Veylon|Veylon]]. It builds randomly using OTA-style profiles. It is relativly stable and works with some of the more important mods.<br />
<br />
=== ZcAIn ===<br />
[[AI:ZcAIn|ZcAIn]] is an AI currently being developed by [[User:Cain|Cain]]. It is probably the least developed of the lot, but is coming along nicley. It is a new addition to the AI scene.<br />

<hr />
<div>'''AI''', or '''Artificial Intelligence''', is what the Computer Opponents in games are called. Developing a good AI is a major undertaking, and requires quite a bit of know how. As the SY's have more important things to do than develop an AI, they have left this job up to the community. The community has risen to the challenge remarkably well, releasing quite a few AI's, most of which are in working condition.<br />
<br />
There are currently a few AI's in development. The more notable of these include JCAI, which is shipped with Spring, and NTAI, which is not stable enough for release yet.<br />
<br />
== Current AI's ==<br />
=== [[AI:AAI|AAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:AAI|AAI]] is an AI currently being developed by [[User:Submarine|Submarine]]. AAI 0.52 is stable and works with most popular mods but it doesn't support naval units yet.<br />
<br />
=== [[AI:JCAI|JCAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:JCAI|JCAI]] is an AI that was being developed by [[User:Zaphod|Zaphod]]. As Zaphod has now taken over the job as head programmer, development on JCAI has come to a halt. Despite this, it is still good, and is currently being shipped with Spring, and is a good starting point for new players to train against. It is very stable.<br />
<br />
=== [[AI:KAI|KAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:KAI|KAI]]is an AI currently being developed by [[User:krogothe|krogothe]]. A very early version of the yet incomplete AI has been released, but is not yet up to a playable standard. It has several limitations such as only being able to play as XTA core and using only vehicles but still manages to produce a decent challenge in groups of 3 or more due to its relentless attacking and decent economy. For best results play in a flat, small map made of metal or with many mex spots. <br />
<br />
=== [[AI:NTAI|NTAI]] ===<br />
[[AI:NTAI|NTAI]] is an AI currently being developed by [http://taspring.clan-sy.com/phpbb/profile.php?mode=viewprofile&u=73 Alantai Firestar]. It performs better than [[User:Zaphod|Zaphod's]] [[AI:JCAI|JCAI]], but is not quite as stable. Also being shipped with current Spring releases, it is a good alternative for people to practice against.<br />
<br />
=== OTAI ===<br />
OTAI is an AI being developed by [[User:Veylon|Veylon]]. It builds randomly using OTA-style profiles. It is relativly stable and works with some of the more important mods.<br />
<br />
=== ZcAIn ===<br />
[[AI:ZcAIn|ZcAIn]] is an AI currently being developed by [[User:Cain|Cain]]. It is probably the least developed of the lot, but is coming along nicley. It is a new addition to the AI scene.<br />
<br />
=== [[Random enemies]] ===<br />
There is a also the [[Random enemies]] script, which can be used for some basic testing. It is not an AI as such, but a spawn script that can be either used to test an AI, or to train against.<br />
<br />
=== Group AIs ===<br />

<hr />
<div>'''AAI''' is beeing developed by [[User:Submarine|Submarine]]. It it stable and supports most popular [[mods]] (e.g. AA, TA:WD, XTA, SWTA and TLL).<br />
<br />
AAI is the only [[AI]] that does not use predefined [[buildscripts]] or [[unit weight]]s but learns about the combat skills of the different units. It also places its defences according to where it has been attacked.<br />
<br />
Since AAI 0.5, a new economy management has been implemented. AAI will build all kinds of power plants, storages and metal makers according to its current demand and situation. However AAI is not yet capable of "exchanging" cheap ectractors.<br />
<br />
AAI sometimes uses air units to support ground units in combat against strong units/defences.<br />
<br />
Naval units will be added in the future.<br />
<br />
=== Info ===<br />
*Status : 0.52<br />
*Compatible mods : XTA, Absolute Annihilation, World Domination, Star Wars TA, TLL, KuroTA, Final Frontier, Gundam Annihilation basically all OTA based mods<br />
*Playability : not exceedingly challenging<br />
*Limitations : no support for water maps, limited air support, no support for nukes/anti nukes etc.<br />

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===<br />
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.<br />
<br />
One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.<br />

An in-depth manual, with help regarding strategies and unit descriptions can be located [http://www.planetannihilation.com/swta/readme.asp here], however, bear in mind that while much of this will be very helpful, it was originally intended for the Original Total Annihilation release, and so is not 100% accurate or reliable with regards to the Spring release. A Spring-specific manual is in the works.<br />

The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.<br />
<br />
One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.<br />

===2005-12-07 Star Wars: Spring 1.0 Released===<br />
The well known Star Wars TC for TA has been ported to Spring.<br />
<br />
One of the most complete TCs that existed for TA has now been fully ported to Spring - all of the bugs that plagued the quick and dirty earlier port have been fixed. Some balancing issues that came up in Spring has also been taken care of, along with a few other minor modifications, to ensure that this modification is made specifically for the Spring engine, so that you can enjoy it as such. Furthermore, many of the uglier low-polygon units for SWTA have been remodelled for Spring, so that you can now enjoy high-poly infantry units, as well as a few other vehecular changes.<br />
