Gobalopper Posted January 20, 1999 Share Posted January 20, 1999 Here is the latest from Stefan about the recent updates to Arrakis:Some things are changed:The interface is changed.The credits are shown in the sidebar.There are four icons for special weapons...Arrakis will NOT have the black fog like C&C/RA/Dune 2. It will have a realtime 'see' fog. So you can see all terrain. But you cannot see the enemy buildings. Because in real you cannot see them from your base! You have to move your units to the enemy structures and/or units to see them. Only the Radar will put the on the radar screen so you can go to those spots fast.The harvesting procedure is done! Really cool to see them harvest. The Harvesters will know where they have harvested the last time. When there is no spice and the harvester will find spice on its path to it destenation it will harvest that spice and ignore your commands. Only when you say to move the unit on spice it will follow your order.Also there where some fixes and changes. Next steps are to build the attack stuff and to build more units and structures. Then the AI and then Arrakis is ready to BETA test!I don't know about everyone else but I can hardly wait for the BETA! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
