Computers & Programming General / Five Lines Of Code (Christian Clausen)

« Last post by Vagabond on March 31, 2024, 07:49:56 PM »

Leeor, I think I saw in the OutpostHD PRs that you were reading Five Lines of Codes by Christian Clausen (https://www.amazon.com/dp/161729831X). Curious if it was a good read or not. Thinking about picking it read up on refactoring best practices.

Huh, and I would have gone with Kenny Loggins.

Excellent, that fixed it! Planning a 4 player tomorrow playing it. Thank you!

Danger Zone East of the Pacific and South of Mars... yes.

As a workaround, copy and paste:
Outpost2\OPU\maps\CaughtInTheCrossfire\op2extra.dll
to
Outpost2\OPU\maps\DangerZone\op2extra.dll

Feedback/Suggestions/Problems / Mission Danger Zone not working on OPU 1.4.1

« Last post by Vagabond on March 10, 2024, 08:49:10 PM »

Hey everyone,

I have been playing through a lot of the multiplayer missions with some friends lately. Radmin VPN worked great to connect us and most the missions worked well. With the updates the community has made, I think the game is holding up well.

However, Danger Zone (the mission Flashy made long ago) seems to be broken as released in OPU 1.4.1.

Was curious if anyone else had the same problem and or if a simple fix existed. I remember the AI being fairly challenging (for me).

I am using GoG version of Outpost 2 on Windows 11 with everything stock (I think).

The host receives the message:
Local Load Failed

The non-hosts get the message:
Host could not load scenario

Sorry I never pop into Discord. IRCs have never been my favorite.

Thanks,
Brett

I started playing the game in 2001, and at 14 wasn't allowed unsupervised internet access at the time. I played on LAN with my brothers and dad, though.

"Player 2 has broken the alliance!"

"We are under attack!"
"Structures destroyed! Our people are dying! Morale is terrible."

Speaking of Dynamix games...anyone ever play The Incredible Machine?

Outpost 1 & Outpost General / Missing Item?

Shouldn't there also be an Alien Virus Vaccine or something like that in the list?  I swear that finishing the research tree unlocked that . . . although it has been years since I've played.
