Hi, this is a rant.

I worked for quite some time on the German translation. But I was pissed of in the process multiple times. Currently, there are four annoyances when it comes to translation:

1. mission translation
2. fixed strings (strings that can’t be translated for technical reasons)
3. text in images (meaning that you can’t translate them either)
4. sometimes way too few space

First annoyance
The biggest pain in the ass is currently the translation of missions. The problem with that is: This system just seems to be completely broken. I will not explain why I think it’s broken, I already explained it over there. This system seriously needs to be reworked one day.

Hi!

For people on Fedora x86-64, with still no 0.9.19 packages, you can find them there : http://download.opensuse.org/repositories/home:/cghislai:/branches:/games/Fedora_18/x86_64/

Sorry for 32 bits users, there was a build error in physfs.

Continental Supplies is a game mode created by Vatten long time ego. It's distributed with the game. It has some new fun scripted weapons and broad spectrum of tactic possibilites but basically noone is playing it because very few people know how to do it (similar situation to mutant some time ego). Here's all i found out about this mode.

First remember - all special weapons and continent selection are activated with "switch hog" key (default: tab), you can also switch backwards using shift + tab. Eg. lets say you're playing North America, you can choose sniper, press tab and fire "Green lipstick". Read the messages at the top to know what mode is activated.

You can check the description of currently active team by pressing esc.
At the begining of first turn you must choose 1 of 9 continents. Choose wisely because you're stuck with those weapons throughout the entire game. Mind that you can check the inventory while you're browsing the continents (just click right mouse button).
I put complete list of weapons below. The numer in brackets is the ammo you have at the begining, none means infinite.

1. North America
Shotgun, Sniper Rifle, Desert Eage, Laser Sight (4), Cake (1), Air Strike (2), Switch hog (6)

Special Weapons:
Sniper: Green lipstick bullet - fire like normal sniper gun, hog becomes poisoned (same effect as cheese)
Sniper: Piñata bullet - fire like normal sniper gun but expodes on impact like cluster
Shotgun: Eagle Eye - your hog will teleport at the point shotgun normally would do the damage

2. South America
Cheese, Bird (5), Hellish (1), Bee, Whip, Flame Thrower, Napalm (1), Extra Damage (2)

Special Weapons:
Cheese: Anno 1032 - the explosion will make a strong push

It has been a while since the last tourney was held on January this year. The focus will be centered on the new Hedgewars ranking system . The Specialists League will deter the ranking as the winner will earn the 1st rank in Hedgewars while the runner-up (2nd) earns 2nd rank in Hedgewars and so on. However, the league is locked , only 8 qualifiers chosen from The Specialists Tournament are allowed to participate.

About the Specialists Tournament, those 8 competitors must sign in here. We use this thread as the Specialists Tournament thread unlike Shoppa Cup and Default Tournament. To sign in, just post something like " Hiii! " or " Hello" or anything else you want to show us that you have ready to roll. Remember this is only applied for Specialists Tournament competitors, which is locked. So, I want to scream out their names; Kootooloo, Schoddie, Nemo, NJU, 1, Bender, Luelle and Komplex! Sign in now!

We are pleased that Hedgewars 0.9.19, the most recent version has fewer bugs unlike before. It would help the tournament go smooth.

I was wondering if there is a place where all the weapon textures are kept. There are some really cool textures I've seen so far, like Star And Moon's shotgun model:

Cool,huh?

Anyway, any answers will be appreciated!
