I love TBS game and suck at RTS , Will Like RON ?

[jeffery88]

What do you all think ?

[FloydtheBarber]

You might like RON if you turn down the game speed or use the pause button. When I first started playing it, I made liberal use of the pause feature, but I think this crippled my skill development with the game. I think playing with the game speed turned down will be better in the long run.
RON isn't about intensive micro-management like Starcraft or Warcraft 3, so quick reflexes aren't as crucial.

For TBS players, the pause button really come in handy

This is the RTS game that is closest to being a TBS game
Though you need to mod it to make it fun in the long run
But at least modding is easy

yes uses EDITPLUS2 or another XML editor which should be able to get somewhere for free

I just use notepad, which is just as easy

Can you help me understand exactly why the mods suggested will help a TBS gamer more enjoy RoN, what extra will it provide in this area?

I love playing Turn Based but do want to get into RoN

Many thanks

Without any mods, the games will only last 1-1½ hour like any other typical rts game. With mods you can easy make them last as many hours as you want...

but with notepad, does it count lines..like when i mod sometimes I fail to do something asnd get an eror on line say 5347..

with an xml editor or editplus2 you can go right to the line..

does wordpad do this as well??

Thanks

Nope, but I've never encountered such error anyway

I usually only have when doing something like Call To Power Units.tx which has so many lines and units..when scenario making

When I have done some other games I try writing the line numbers down from original to testing so I can track altered results..good or bad..

Sure, if you're doing some modding for games where modding is more advanced, then yes it could become helpful, but we're talking about RoN
