From Sergei Novikov To All 4 June 1997


Greetings, Vyacheslav! Glad to see you again!

Answering yld Wednesday, the 04 of June 1997:

VM>>> will definitely have to be applied to peasants/peons, who
VM>>> are constantly on the move.

SN>> You’re wrong about peasants. They haven’t scanned anything for a long time, even in the same
SN>> Warcraft 2! And they only run away when they are hit.

VM> It’s just that in the proposed method (to reduce calculations), moving
VM> objects THEMSELVES notify enemies of their approach. And because peasants
VM> are constantly moving, they will constantly try to carry out such
VM> notification.

Is it really so difficult to check at the beginning whether this unit is a peasant?
Imho, a couple of trifles.


Hasta la vista, Vyacheslav! See you in Eden!

Answering yld Saturday, the 07 of June 1997:

VM>>> peasants are constantly moving, they will constantly try to carry out
VM>>> such an alert.

SN>> Is it really so difficult to check at the beginning whether this unit is
SN>> a peasant? IMHO, a couple of trifles.

VM> Seryoga, well, how could it be otherwise? Hit everything that moves. The peasants (the enemy)
VM> also need to be destroyed.

Oh, I meant that the peasants do not need to be notified.

Perhaps notifications for the peasants should be made less frequently... If this is possible.
